I Hate Racism and Discrimination

I learned about racism from the people who claimed they loved me, my family. As a black kid growing up I not only saw the favoritism that my parents and their friends showed toward my lighter skinned sibling but also how our own black culture, who is quick to yell racism when a white person kills one of us, they sure as hell turn a blind eye when one of our own does it!
When I became an adult I had a deep hate for racism against any kind. I want to thank my family for showing me the ignorance of racism because they truly were the best teachers!

When my girlis were young we babysat alittle black boy. Little kids know nothing of racism, everyone got along just fine. John turned out just fine, went to law school and has been in practice for 25 years. We are still great friends.

@jackson55 When I was raising my kids, I not only taught them about our own culture but also about other cultures. I wanted my girls to know that our race wasn't the only ones discriminated against.
