Isn’t this all so very sad?
This country is the best in the world to live in, and I’ve tried some pretty nice ones. What makes it great (besides the founding docs) are the people, from Europe, Africa, indigenous, and Asia. But most especially the ones from European and African origins. I have lived in countries with no people of African origin (yes, besides Manhattan Beach, lol) and I didn’t like that.
I love my AA brothers and sisters of America and enjoy the culture, flavors, sounds, everything they have brought to this nation. I’m sorry their ancestors were enslaved. Mine were too, and mine were genocided all too recently. But I love their descendants. And I love the culture and flavors and history white Americans brought from Europe, too. I hate to see such amazing ideas, arts, and tastes now insulted only because of the white skin of their inventors. Not to leave them out, but our indigenous and Asian brothers and sisters, same thing, so many contributions.
We SHOULD culturally appropriate! Ever raised a small child? I have one right here. When she sees another child, or someone on YouTube, do something, Art, a dance, a skill, she copies it. Then, once she’s got it, she makes it her own. ITS CALLED LEARNING. It’s how we human primates get so good at things. Let’s copy each other’s best, and stop segregating. The best thing that happened to music was people like Elvis, on either side, CROSSING OVER.
Amen. Wonderful posting.
I just wish we could stop hanging on race, and just join the basic GOOD European/Christian culture created here. Forget your race and join the culture.
