People make judgements off of what they know best. I, as a white person, see most African Americans as having big lips. Why? Because it is a reference from what i know best; my own race’s characteristics. I am intersted in what makes races physiologically different from eachother. Understanding eachother is key to smothering racism. So why become defensive? If you want to know why my irish heritage has left me with freckles-ask me. If you want to know why white people have varying eye colors, ask. And i will not be defensive but respect the fact that you want to know, and i would expect the same in return.
