No one asked you to start a thread entitled : "Racism- still alive"

[/quote]..and no one asked you to give your opinion if you were offended (which it seems you are) by the subject. I didn't know I needed to ask permission, since I didn't the past 38 times.

And I'd like you to reply to the other part of my post, since I was replying to your comment.
Whose fault is it? I'll use a recent example. People here and in the media are talking about how Mrs. Rice was in the segregated south. I have never heard her talk about this. Why is it ok for them to defend her with that, but it's wrong for blacks to bring up the negative side of slavery and segregation, or the ones who didn't succeed like Mrs. Rice?
one more thing- how would MR. Matrin Luther King Jr. feel about you saying that?
You honestly lost me.

I said 'Mrs. Rice,' referring to the new Secretary of State.
