I need to apologize before going any further.
My understanding of racism, has been entirely different my entire life. It was much more superficial, and like y'all have noticed in my posts, much more based on person to person interactions. Now my understanding of racism has been flipped upside down after being on this website for only one day. I now know that racism goes much much deeper than what I have known for my entire life. I think to try to fully understand racism from a black persons perspective I would either have to be a black person or probably spend the rest of my life researching about it. As I know I will never truly understand the trials that black people have endured.
I didn't want to argue any points from my perspective, or get into any debates. I am still on the search for knowledge. That's the entire reason I joined this forum, and I just started this thread to get perspective from y'all. I didn't mean make any defending posts.
