[Steve B.]

I think it may be because many African Americans have given up on trying to ‘reach out’ to whites because of past wrongs, both real and perceived. They’ve learned that screaming ‘racism’ is likely to get their issues noticed. Unfortunately, they have lost some credibility in so doing because not every unfair event in life is a result of racism. African Americans are being fed the ridiculous notion that they can not be racist because they have no power. Some in the black leadership actually believe people will buy into this belief and, unfortunately, some have. African Americans are also being taught (for lack of a better term)to see racism everywhere, wheather it exists or not. This is not to say that racism does not exist–it does. it’s just that the truth is, racists are not lurking behind every corner just waiting to practice their evil craft. We still have a long way to go.
