87. Kennedy said it best
This is not related to Wright's statment. J F Kennedy said "do we all have equal talents, no of course not, but we should have equal abilities to develop our talents." Different cultural groups have overlap between talents of course, but they also offer a richness through variety. The USA is more cultural rich than most countries, now if the different cultural groups could just find harmony. Come on people, this chapter of our story should have ended when the constitution was changed and black people being 3/5 of humans in the legal sense was done away with. The USA needs a long adult conversation about race. There is a lot of healing that needs to happen. We all have so much in common, and our differencess are a richness for our country. Let's do away with ideas of superiority and inferiority and celebrate our different cultures until they eventually mix and become one (as I said in an earlier post the process has already begun)
