From the page: "Personally, after some of the ugliness Iâ€ve seen in my past, in the media recently, and watching what my son is experiencing, I am starting to feel Rev. Wright a little, and say â€oeGod Damn America” myself. Or at least, Goddamn these horrible, ugly racists who call themselves proud and patriotic Americans. Fear, combined with ignorance, is a very scary thing."

I'm shakin' my head right now. What's hard to fight? That your mom and pops raised you to hate people of color? Is it so ingrained that you can't see past your behind to recognize a fellow spirit on this planet? Someone who has a grandpa and grandma?Nieces,uncles,aunties,brothers,sisters,cousins? Families.....that's what this world is made of.How they are brought up,what they are taught,how they are inspired,humor,integrity,bravo,tenderness,fellowship...the list goes on....we are all stewards of this earth....nothing more and companions for one another to lead and teach.I can go on.....well....it's just so ......high school after awhile.... Live and let live in Canada...but racism is just not accepted....calls for an ass kickin'.

From the page: "Last week, my son experienced a very ugly side of people that I hoped didnâ€t exist anymore. In the past, he has had anger issues for various reasons and had serious issues in school during my custody trial. He told me there was a discussion about the election in school, and a few boys in class were saying Obama cannot be president because he is too dumb, because everyone knows that a black man is too dumb to run the country. My son responded that Obama was actually biracial and probably just as white as the rest of us. As they were leaving class, the boy told my son, â€oeObama is a yellow n*gger, like you.”"

I've been noticing more and more that there are still a lot of issues with race in this country. Sad to see how it can still be so strong.

A raw, honest, and very personal look at America's persistent racism.
