I get that,,,, though,, it is hard to get over,, when you dwell on the color of your skin,, it appears then that EVERYTHING that happens to you, is because of that... then you stop seeing the good things that happen to you, and you certainly don't associate them with your skin color.. only the bad...
When I sat down, and contemplated that very dichotomy,, I understood that NOTHING happened to me, because my skin is red,,,, good or bad,,, stuff just happens,, we put the "WHY" on it,, and if we can put that "WHY" on the face of another race,,, then we can dehumanize them and fight them,,,
That is the mistake the black race makes, and I did too once,, when you hear it over and over, from people you trust,, it has its effect.... and it is sort of a default,,,,,
It is like a woman,,, when she walks down the street,, and a man looks at her,,, most of the time, she wonders,, "What is wrong with me??" It is rare that she jumps straight to the conclusion, that he finds you very attractive...
That too, is racism, and what the left is fighting so hard about on this site for the last couple days,,, because without that crutch, they have no one who needs their support and compassion,, and in so doing they forge the chains of an underclass, to serve their purposes,,, and has little to nothing to do, with the black race,, who recognizes that they see nor make, any progress,,,, with leftist policies,,,,,

Yep, the black man knows two things for sure; either he can make it, by playing the race card and getting us to compensate him for our racial guilt, OR he can get out there - and make his own way, like everybody else. The only way I know to stop racism - is to stop talking about race - but the majority of black people are having none of that.
