First, I am reminded of my father’s suggestion that one should never wrestle with a clown: win or lose you will look stupid. Nevertheless, I believe that you deserve the respect of a brief reply:
If you read my blog again, you will note that I was expressing my disappointment with the lack of progress. I suspect that your research displayed the truth that: Segregated housing ended 50 yrs ago, segregated schools ended 60 yrs ago, Affirmative Action has been the rule for over 50 yrs and equal voting rights has been the rule for over 50 yrs. MY POINT WAS INTENDED TO ILLUSTRATE TO ANYONE CAPABLE OF RATIONAL THOUGHT THAT DURING THE PAST 50-60 YEARS, 100 years in the case of the NAACP, THE RELATIVE ABILITY OF AFRICAN AMERICANS TO PARTICIPATE IN CIVILIZED SOCIETY HAS DIMINISHED!
All of our efforts to correct the problems created by discrimination have been wasted or just wrong-headed. Instead of bitching at everyone who mentions this, you might consider proposing some constructive solution.
I’m waiting.
OOPS! I pushed a button too many times. MY bad!
