You know, I've had a few really good teachers that happened to be black while growing up. They almost always taught History, or some social studies class.
And they always said it wasn't the color of the skin that was the problem. It was the stereotype of being poor, or not being as intelligent, that went along with that. Its funny, if you see a well dressed or articulate black man, people call him a white black man, his skin color is black, but he talks and acts white. > -----Original Message----- > From: Angel Stewart [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, January 28, 2005 11:44 AM > To: CF-Community > Subject: RE: Who Doesn't Discriminate?
