Soledad O'Brien of CNN asked this question:

Congressional Black Caucus is calling for a dialogue on race after protesters yell the n word at congressmen! Shouldn't we be past this in 2010?

I answered the question like this:

We can never forget... We have to let the youth know about the past, and what is bred in "Whitopia" today. Anytime you live in a place where you see only people who look like you, the media feeds a negative image about a different race, and your people's people moved (white flight) to get away from integrated neighborhoods, you're going to act like animals when it comes down to something you want; especially when you believe you are "the privileged," and you did not receive the correct education about the contributions of all people in the USA! So we will never be passed it until whites move into neighborhoods to truly integrate, not to commit regentrification, and then we can live together in a true multi-cultural community! Until then, we will never get past it!
