Re: Do Blacks Want To Transcend Race?
Jermyn, I am sure a lot of black people do wish to transcend race. But there are a few well known that love to play the race card.

Yeah, we know about them, but lately they've been quiet.
Even in the face of what's clearly racial hatred at Hocking College in Ohio.
Did you read about that, Big Sis?

It hurts my heart to read things like that, Jermyn. I remember visiting relatives in Mississippi back in the day, it was not pleasant to watch as a child. And a couple of decades ago, watch my friends being treated like they were in our little town.

Blaming what the FBI found serious enough to investigate as "youth" is mularkey.
I just hope that nothing violent happens.

I can remember driving to Bogaloosa Bible Conference through Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama and being "concerned".
But at least I knew to be "concerned."

Oh yeah, wise to be concerned. There were parts of those states that people locked their car doors, while driving through.

I think Renda said there are parts of Memphis that are that way too!!!
Although the reasoning may be a bit different.
