I recently answered a telephone survey and one of the questions was "Race." I hate that question. For me, it is irrelevant -- Black, white, whatever -- I don't consider the fact that my skin is white to have any bearing on who I am. When I'm asked that on forms, I fill out "Jewish."
I answered, "Jewish." He pressed me -- "Caucasion?" I said, "What does it matter?" What matters to me is what kind of human being I am, and I hate it when people look at me and see only skin color. And I want a Straight Parade!!! Judith > A boy in elementary wore a shirt that said black power on it. :-| My > friends daughter asked if she could wear a shirt that said white > power.
