I think you would find that blacks teachers favor black children because they identify more with them. I have a problem with concentrating on racism just among whites. I think it makes whites defensive and it implies that they are the only ones capable of racism.

I think they need one class where they look at racism honestly and acknowledge that ever race has the same level of racism within it's ranks. I think you do a whole lot more to bring people of different races together when you acknowledge that we are more alike than we are different and we all have the same problems dealing with the differences.

I agree -- anyone is capable of racism; it does not require a certain color or religion.
