And if we don't learn to stop attacking each other, then that quote is correct, we'll all be blind.Vicktor Alexanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01335249239525296297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7890913381472307616.post-54910094770791978202012-02-12T22:25:31.812-05:002012-02-12T22:25:31.812-05:00Thanks Cherie!

Then my big sis and I both mentioned how hot he was. Those preconceived notions about what skin tone someone has to be in order to be something is how people get in trouble.Vicktor Alexanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01335249239525296297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7890913381472307616.post-75046827501792689202012-02-09T22:05:28.565-05:002012-02-09T22:05:28.565-05:00As always beautifully written, Vic!

Being an Indian who didn't have ANY mixing I feel that is wonderful. But to be honest, I don't know if they do face any discriminations... I hope/wish that my kids at least marry someone who is NOT an Indian - we have had enough mixing as it is... LOL!<br /><br />Thank you for also educating us (me) about the treatment of gays and trans people in black community. What you said <i>...gays bashing gay bashers is not</i> is very true. An eye for an eye will turn the whole world blind.Brahmin in Bostonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04654324300020346802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7890913381472307616.post-50249391436078505722012-02-09T16:55:51.075-05:002012-02-09T16:55:51.075-05:00Rock on, lil'bro.

People come in lots of different colours and shapes; and that difference is wonderful and beautiful.<br /><br />Hope you start to feel better soon :)pointycathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12314434465759885505noreply@blogger.com
