Reply #49: I've read through some of these replies

and I would like to add that so far, in the posts I've read, everyone is missing the point of your post. The point, as I see it, is the question: "Is total desegregation a good thing, because inevitably, in the long run, it will wipe out ethnicity?" No more Italians, no more Irish, no more Africans, no more Arabs, etc. I don't know the answer. Segregation is bad, but ethnicity is good - in my opinion. Where would we be without it? Look how ethnicity has enriched everthing that touches all our lives. I believe that is the question being asked by Delano. I wonder also.

Edit: I can imagine a future where everyone will be a beautiful shade of golden tan and there will be no races. Will that be good or will it be bad? I enjoy diversity.
