    For a while I actually lived in an area that was predominately black. The people there were generally cleaner and used better English than a lot of rural white folks I've seen. Maybe your generalizations about black people aren't very realistic. You have no idea. I've been places where...

    Yes Maryland was a slave state. That's just a fact. These are the facts that give people pause: You don't seem very liberal. For a while I actually lived in an area that was predominately black. The people there were generally cleaner and used better English than a lot of rural white...

    You don't seem very liberal. Which would explain this: For a while I actually lived in an area that was predominately black. The people there were generally cleaner and used better English than a lot of rural white folks I've seen. Maybe your generalizations about black people aren't very...

    If you think that such people are rare, you might want to visit my block. Three black families, all professionals and all very nice people. One of them was a colleague and a very capable colleague.

    Having known a lot of black people in my life, I'm thinking the problem is your selective recall. There are a lot more decent, hardworking, intelligent black folks than you think there are. Obama responded to the then controversy by saying, “He called me, I told him it wasn’t necessary. We...

    For example, a while back we completely redid the kitchen. It took a while to pay off. To save money she kept transferring the balance to new cards with zero interest until we paid it off.

    I'm guessing that very few Elvis fans actually tried to use those.

    You were really misled on that one. Biden was saying that he favored open housing rather than busing to achieve integration. He wanted them to live in his neighborhood. "Unless we do something about this, my children are going to grow up in a jungle, the jungle being a racial jungle with...

    Donald Trump, Matt Gaetz, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and their ilk are not liberals. One of them might not even be a white supremacist. You seem a bit confused. For a while I actually lived in an area that was predominately black. The people there were generally cleaner and used better...

    That's better than Jewish Space Lasers and WHO police forces. Just when you think they couldn't come up with a crazier conspiriacy theory, they step up and do it.

    And yes, Hispanics have had very little progress in increasing their rate of home ownership, although it's improved somewhat: https://www.redfin.com/news/homeownership-rate-hispanic-white-gap-2022/ A realtor's group identified some major structural problems for black people looking to buy a...

    Yeah, it tickles me that so many ignorant people think that all Hispanics are a single ethnic group, with the same culture. I had a friend in college who was Venezuelan and he really didn't understand Norteno or Tex-Mex culture at all. And then Puerto Rican culture is very distinct from...

    One thing is, she keeps getting these offers for cards with zero interest if you pay it back by a certain date. Most people get the card, fail to pay it all off by the date, and then find that they are on the hook for all the interest that would have accrued, even if they are a penny short of...

    Well, at least he'd have a reasonable chance of winning.

    This is the point of CRT; shaming people isn't the answer. Addressing the structures that perpetuate racism is what works. U.S. military had this figured out early on. In my training, a senior NCO told us "make it unprofitable to be a racist and racism goes away."
