Have you guys ever seen that movie with Tony Lee Curtis where she changes bodies with her daughter?
Oh what I would give for that to really take place between a white man and a black man, or a man and a woman, or a jew and a palestinian, etc etc etc...
All the philosophizing would come to an end, and real understanding would happen.

A little off the topic.
If those jews and pals knew how genetically similar they're.
And especially the darker skinned mid easterners, they are so similar, but yet they are extremely divided by false race isues. Even if we publicized this point throughout the mid east the people's religious beliefs wouldn't permit them to believe the science.
And ART, you're a jerk. One minute you're a whip wielding KKK member, prior to that you were a good christian, and now you're in support of ways to end racism. You're schizophrenic.
Quote from Doubter:
canyonman - That is an encouraging post.
IMHO there needs to be a committment to greater morality so that any economic advances won't be lost or squandered by immoral behavior. This is true of any culture. In my experience of 25+ years of working with minority people groups when the morality improved the economic well being would follow. But if the economics came first the people tended to revert to their old ways and squander their gains. A group of bankers just returned from a former communist country where they had gone to try to help with their banking system. Their conclusion was that until there was a moral change in the people toward honesty the system as planned (like ours) would not work.

Question: would you agree that the very high rate of blacks being raised by single mothers (not to mention illegitimate births, which I could also quote stats on) is a leading cause of the failure of significant portions of the black community to raise their socioeconomic well-being?
As an African American I am not buying that logic. It does not take two parents to learn how to read. Nor does it does not take two parents to decide that a different way must be pursued.
