I hoped I wouldn't be misunderstood. I'll say it differently. I'm white, but I don't want to be a white person, I want to be a person.

I wish I had a good answer for you. You especially will know that people can be racist without knowing, and even while thinking they're serving some higher purpose. People don't realize how disgusting they are when they say things like, "I'm not against black people, I'm just in favor of my own race," when they should know that the only race is the human race.

But it's good to talk to you BronxBoy, grew up in Far Rockaway myself.
