The discussion on What It Means to Be White :-)
I thought this experience was interesting. I tried to be mindful of my feelings as I read through the responses. It's a shame that just about anyone reading them could tell who (which race) was writing the response. It has been my experience that Caucasians in general are notoriously racist. I can only hope that one day the way that many of them view themselves will line up with the way they themselves actually are. I love the beautiful skin that I am in and only hope that one day we will all be able to live together in a world where this is no longer a factor. I did find some of the Caucasian responses interesting and did not look at it from a perspective of ... Some do not want to be seen as racist and would like to some how disassociate themselves from the actions of the previous generations in their family. I liked this exercise because it gives the individuals participating in it an opportunity to really look at just how different the answers are :-(
