You must be kidding. How do you expect black people to raise issues when it will affect their ongoing relationships with the people they're busy grinning with and convincing them that they are different from those trouble-makers and radical blacks? </div></div>
so so true </div></div>
Thank you sister. Thank you!Comment

Another thing we still cannot say blanket racism when it made by a few obviously Racist/Politicking or both Talking Heads. My contention is you will never stop racist individuals (I have had my tiers slashed by a racist person, driven out of town in the USA, called a ni***r, among other things I am not going to say the whole town is racist?), but we must separate the acts of a few from racist policies that the Sate sanctions

Just last month my rent deposit went up $100 when I showed up to sign the lease, the land lord refused to fix a leak till I told him never mind the ceiling is about to fall, I was told I have to cut the grass, even though it seems the Land Lord has been doing it for his other tenants for years. Therefore, we know racism and bigotry is not dead and I would be foolish to think that.
That kind of thing does not bother me, it is worse or just as bad in Jamaica. What I worry about is if the City is denying me service purely based on race.Comment
