@ cutthroat, you're right. I agree with you. But racism isn't something we'll see gone in our lifetime. Sad to say, but... it's still too touchy of a subject. You can't say the word "black" in a sentence w/out wondering "does this sound racist?" or "is someone going to perceive this as racist?"
The tension of the matter is still too taut, and as long as it is that way, the wound will never heal.

One of the funniest comedy sketches ever... But comedians are honestly the best help toward healing racism (IMO) because they're not scared to play around on that border (dave chapelle, richard pryor, robin williams, ralphie may, titus, kevin hart, and katt williams) and it desensitizes ppl toward it. Again, this is my opinion. I'm not trying to start arguments or anything like that. But that video I posted is freaking hilarious.
