I never believed the worst in racism was over. I never believed we were 
post-racial, or anything close to it. As someone who's had some good 
opportunities in life, i've known personally that every advance can still be 
sullied by the hatred of those around you. The very nasty comments directed at 
Obama during the campaign--the way the xenophobia, Christian fundamentalism 
hatred, and unfair labeling of Michelle Obama as a militant abounded--is 
proof of that. The way Palin was able to lead a hatred-based attack on him, and 
even McCain didn't stop it unti it was too obvious to ignore, is proof of that. 
The fact that anyone with enough brain power to blink their eyes actually 
defended Limbaugh's Powell only voted for Obama because he's black and I 
hope he fails comments shows we haven't progressed that far. 

We believe America is past its racial problems at our peril.

I hear you, Mr Worf. And I remember when, in the aftermath of President 
Obama's victory, so many of us said in accord that the worst was far from 
behind us in terms of racism. Still, terrifying to look at it in such scope and 
intensity.

What I think is going on is that this is a stage of grief. The stages are 
denial, anger, depression, and acceptance.We are at the anger stage. It 
takes some people longer to move through the rest of those stages.

Thanks, Martin.  If I can say that wisdom comes from mistakes and hindsight,

accept your compliment gracefully.  
 
I used to do just that...let them get to me...then one day someone much
wiser than I 
pointed out that spending time trying to change what someone thinks or feels
about me
was a fool's errand, and a waste of good energy...which is what we all are

Ever since then, when I've had the VERY male human reaction to want to cut

I was in a bad mood when I walked in the door. This did not help. 

Not for the first time in my life, I am NOT proud to be an American.

I never believed the worst in racism was over. I never believed we were 
post-racial, or anything close to it. As someone who's had some good 
opportunities in life, i've known personally that every advance can still be 
sullied by the hatred of those around you. The very nasty comments directed at 
Obama during the campaign--the way the xenophobia, Christian fundamentalism 
hatred, and unfair labeling of Michelle Obama as a militant abounded--is 
proof of that. The way Palin was able to lead a hatred-based attack on him, and 
even McCain didn't stop it unti it was too obvious to ignore, is proof of that. 
The fact that anyone with enough brain power to blink their eyes actually 
defended Limbaugh's Powell only voted for Obama because he's black and I 
hope he fails comments shows we haven't progressed that far. 

We believe America is past its racial problems at our peril.

I hear you, Mr Worf. And I remember when, in the aftermath of President 
Obama's victory, so many of us said in accord that the worst was far from 
behind us in terms of racism. Still, terrifying to look at it in such scope and 
intensity.

What I think is going on is that this is a stage of grief. The stages are 
denial, anger, depression, and acceptance.We are at the anger stage. It 
takes some people longer to move through the rest of those stages.
