Ahem, here's mine. I think Race does matter...and gender, class, sexuality, religion, etc. This includes height, weight, and clothes. We come with baggage and judgments and we project it EVERYWHERE. <BR/><BR/>It takes a strong person to overcome all of that. It takes a stronger person to overcome their own baggage and judgments. Unfortunately, I don't most are willing to try to get over thier baggage and judgments.<BR/><BR/>I was at a planning meeting earlier this week where a white guy was talking about trying really hard to make diversity work in the office. I thanked him for the effort. It WILL take work for racism to end and we'll have to sweat to make it happen. This includes me who has to stay conscious of the ratio of men to women getting jobs or older people to younger people. Ending ism's take work. Hopefully, people will pull out the kerchief and wipe their brow.thelastnoelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11883917612366394420noreply@blogger.com
