[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone ISN'T the same though. If everyone were the same, [b]then I, a white woman, would ALSO get followed around in a fancy clothing store instead of only the black women.[/b] If everything were the same I would ALSO get pulled over for driving yet doing nothing wrong.

If we don't see color, we can't see racism. If we can't see racism, how will we change it? [/quote]

White teens, especially rich white teens, also get followed around in a fancy clothing store, fwiw.

Do you see age?  Or class?  Or only race?[/quote]

This... does not contradict PP's point?  Agism and classism are also issues, albeit not the ones being discussed on this post.  Different people of different races (and ages and classes) experience the world differently and we should be aware of and consider those differing experiences when we think about policies and manners and such.

And to OP -- we AREN'T all the same in God's eyes.  Assuming you're Christian, please consider Matthew 23:12: "For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted."[/quote]
