Will We Ever Unite?

I give up on the whole "human race unity" thing.  It's sad, but humans will always have stupid baises--differences.  The kind of crap that's gone on because of race is incredible.  And think about it, it's about color!  Are you kidding me?  Our kids are smarter than that, and Crayola is all they know until we screw them up.  I'm getting tired of being a "black woman."  No, I don't want to be white or anything else, but isn't it okay just to say that I'm a woman?  Better yet, isn't it okay just to say that I'm human?  But it won't happen.  I realize that.  Humans are too intelligent for that to happen.

till we can learn to communicate with out title and physical discritions...like say use peoples name and accomplishments....we will be stuck with some sort of bias based on identifying with a particular title or characteristic

"The kind of crap that's gone on because of race is incredible."

It is increadible. Especially if we believe in race. Science in the beginning of the 20th century sought to prove that being of a certain race actually made you inferior. These ideas have still stuck around, but really, there is nothing in a one race's DNA that says that they have the superior gene for intellegence. Nothing, in the DNA.

Yet why do why buy into it? Why do we think that african american sports stars are better than another ethnicity in sports? There's no science that's going to prove that.
