My people are people who have the same interest and hobbies as I do, not if they have the same color skin that I have…I think you should make it your job to maybe not educate but to definitely how should I say sort of indirectly force a realization, and I think you are right people who “say I don’t like Black People; or I hate White People” are close minded and some people will never get it while others will turn a new leaf, you don’t have to force them to like you but if you happen to be compatible in areas of interest they will take to you and want to be around you no matter what they think about your people, at least you changed the way they perceive at least one..

Now my “Negro Brother” I’m going to level and get personal with you….I happen to like GQ magazines, I happen to like Calvin Klein, I happen to like certain movies and television series that well what do you know feature a lot of “White People”  which can’t be helped now does that make me wish I was “White’ well my brother it does SOMETIMES is it my fault not necessarily how do I combat that type of thinking I use as you say my “Blindness” the artificial ignorance or naiveté to forge thoughts in my head such as maybe they don’t have Black People trying hard enough to break a barrier or open a door, and maybe all they need is someone who is willing to set race/color aside…I hope you understand what I’m saying…

And I am first an AMERICAN down to the goddamn tiniest micro cell in my body…Secondary I am a BLACK man…Does that mean I agree with the way history happened to go down of course not, does that mean I agree with all my countries philosophies and policies of course not, do I wish things could just change right now of course I do….

But as I said as long as we acknowledge that history happened all we can do is leave it there and push for  the positive and equality and push to make race irrelevant not an issue..

Like you said not everybody will open their mind to such change, but I can guarantee that the people who think another man is “Inferior” just because the color of his skin happens to be darker, that thinking will die out, and how will that happen people like you and I making sure of it by simply being just like the powers at be but better…

Again I welcome and look forward to your response…
