No, I think "Some of you people in here really have a lot of nerve. This Greek stuff has really gotten to you colored people. Or would you prefer Negro?" displayed hostility. And as I said before, I wasn't talking about titles, I was talking about concepts of race.

I don't see comparing your view to other views as insulting and I truly don't understand how you do. Just another example of how we see things differently. Furthermore I never even disagreed with the philosphy I likened to Uhuru, I simply argued that it was based on social constructs.

It didn't seem to me that you understood what I meant since you took it as an insult when it was not. I explained myself to remedy the conflict between what you recieved and what I meant.
