If you look at each system simply for its merits without thinking about the racial aspect for a minute --- or better yet, taking your own race and GLO-bias out of the equation and just looking at the whole thing objectively that way, it's a pretty interesting perspective. It may help you understand better what I'm talking about.
Great point! In the end, I think people need to not be so critical of other organizations no matter how long they've been around. These groups are not saying that anything is wrong with the existing groups so don't take their existence personally!
