This is THREE generations ago
(every 20 years)
This is racism from people who GREW UP BEFORE 1940
I dont actually give a crap about this article for that reason, except as a historical example and proof of HOW THING HAVE IMPROVED
This is not an example of why we need more affirmative action- but how we have more than acheived equality, when an incompetant buffoon can become president mostly BECAUSE he is black.
In the sixties racism was a very real and evil thing.....today there are individual racist committed by ignorant asshats.....it is almost impossible for institutional racism to exist in today’s society with all the federal regulations and rules
Someone should write the article “the most racist thing that happened to me in the past 10 years”. It might involve the black panthers, Jeremiah Wright or Eric Holder, but it would not involve actions by white people.
Our family is white. My mom went to Clark U. in MA in the 60’s and was heading for a music degree. She was told after she had completed her degree, she might give piano lessons. Many things were different that long ago.
She left Clark U. shortly after that and continued on to get Masters Degrees in library science and east Asian history from U. WI at Madison, WI.
