I think it is disgusting that parents make their little kids live their own noble reasons. They want this, THEY should be the only white person in some black group, not their little kid.

My mom moved us into an ‘integrated’ neighborhood out of an upper scale one, for the ‘experience.’ For liberal guilt. I was at the tail end of high school and stayed at the same school. My younger sisters and brothers ate kaka at the local schools from the rough black lower class kids. My youngest sister was slugged with a baseball bat while she was riding her bicycle to school, 2 blocks away. My brothers were held up in the bathrooms, lost their pocket money over and over and over.

I think it is reprehensible to make your kids live YOUR liberal guilt.

Reminds me of the scene in Vacation when they are driving through East St. Louis:

Ellen: This is so dangerous, we have no business being in an area like this.

Clark: Well look at it this way honey, this is a part of America we never get to see.

Ellen: That’s good.

Clark: No, that’s bad. I mean we can’t close our eyes to the plight of the cities. Kids, you noticing all this plight? This will just make us appreciate what we have. (gun shot and scream) Roll ‘em up.

A seemingly inveterate hatred has taken root in a large portion of the black community in this country. It cannot be placated by any measures white people take. Nothing is ever enough. We are not talking here about anger, which is a passionate reaction to particular injustices. Anger simply aims to redress injustices that have been committed and move on. What's taken root in a vast number of black folk's souls is the deadly vice of hatred, i.e. , a bent of the soul that wishes to destroy anything related to "whiteness" and can never be sated by individual acts of atonment. The best thing to do, sadly, is steer clear of most blacks folks until a generational shift in attitudes takes place. It's all very sad.
