    White men lynched my uncle in 1950, a white woman slapped my grandmother for trying on a pair of shoes, white kids spit in my mother's hair while she tried to attend school, a white boy drew lewd pictures of blacks in our school bathroom... I could go on. Do I get nervous around whites? No. Why? Because I understand that the people who did those things are individuals who happen to have been white. Period. I know that most whites are nice, upstanding citizens, as are most blacks. Whites actually commit most of the crime in this country. Don't believe me? Look it up. But am I developing fears and prejudices against whites? No. If your attackers and your friend's attackers had been white, would you now be fearing white people? Probably not. So don't blame a whole race on a few misguided souls. If you do, it makes you just as bad as them.
