10. What the heck has been going on?

I'm going to have to backtrack and see what I've missed. I love your pictures, JustAnotherGen! I'm a black woman who has been married to a white man for almost 20 years. And, you're right. Living the life is quite different from experiencing it vicariously or simply empathizing.

Anyone who speaks of conquering a mate has a sad, shallow concept of love.

But, dare I say the obvious. It comes as no surprise to any person alive of color that although the Republican party seems to hold the lions share of racists, racism is alive and well in the democratic party and DU, as well.
