My post was in response to the quote about not being able to imagine a racially mixed GLO that was not founded on those principles, and they also said that was maybe because they were from the south. I really never thought about things being different until I read that person's reply. This person, going to a school from the south, put this assumption up. Apparently, there are southern people who think that's out of the ordinary. Not all think this way, and I realize that. I also do not condemn that person for thinking that way, that's just the environment they are living in at the moment. They were from a different place than dzrose93, so perhaps that's why there is the differing opinion. Don't forget the previous posts about it being "about time" that an African-American joined a predominately white GLO. Without saying it outright, people are saying basically the same thing I said. I did not mean my post to be interpreted in a way that would say that all southerners are racist or that the North is better than the South. It was just a response to a previous post. I am sorry if it offended anyone.
