Well said Soror!
Just an FYI, people of color are NOT the minority. So every time we say minority and group people of African descent in there, we are actually promoting a false truth. So lets stop it.
There is a theory in psychology called "minician" thought that is constantly being perpetuated in the USA. Basically the premise of this idealogy is "we" the broad populous equate what is right, correct, pure, positive upstanding etc. with people of white skin tone first, olive skin tone second, and moving up the color spectrum to brown skin tones last.
For instance if there are 3 men lined up in a room accused of a crime and one is African, one is European and one is Asian the first person you will automatically assume committed the crime will be the African, then the Asian and last the European. I say this to illustrate a point. We need to stop thinking outside of the box of convention and start checking our venacular and behaving accordingly.
Peace and Blessings...
