As I child I was poor. When I got the opportunity to visit a museum, either as a school field trip, or as a cheap substitute for Disneyland, I was more awed than take aback.

I didn't think "This is no place for a poor schmuck like me."

I thought "I would love to learn more about all the great stuff I was seeing."

The museums around here are hardly racist. They all have sections showing art/artifacts from Asia, Africa, Oceania, etc.

Michelle's comments reek of misplaced bitterness.

We were very poor when I was young. Like yourself, I loved it on those very rare occasions when went to a museum. It made me want to grow up and learn more, but sadly my skin is white. As an oblivious member of the “white oppressor class” I didn’t see all the racism practically oozing out of those museum displays.

she just keeps stirrin’ the pot that’s all there is too it and then as most recently linked on Drudge a report about how “life as Fist Lady is emotionally draining! Good gawd there’s not a reticent bone in her body & it’s all tunnel vision-she ain’t the Fist Lady in the WH by any means. She’s not the Fist & she won’t be the Last
