I read on another message board that they were planning on doing a "Good Hair Party" but dunno how valid that is.

I swear...we can be our own worst enemy at times.

I'm curious about something however - do you think issues of class and color seem to 'rise' to the surface of our consciousness more in tough economic times?

It's almost as if we're all "doing OK" economically, we're not really focused on class and color as much.

But, when dollars get tight, if appears as if we revert back to the 'ole ye' time and start finding ways to self segregate.
