Thank you my sister. I truly don't think that the average white person REALLY understand what we mean b/c when they are the victim of racism it is usually very blatant and is related as a haphazard experience. However, when it is us UR pops its ugly head up quite casually. It is done without really realizing that is really being done. Although somethings said or done are meant to be racist. Take STRAIGHT BOS's response purely typical of a sarcastic white male/female. He/she may even be an OREO. But obviously issues that are important to us are not taken seriously i.e. reparations, equal rights, etc. Some white people believe that with all of the "equalities" that have been given to Blacks that they have done their part. Simply not true...just not true!
