Thank you ((Cant Stop Crying))

What bothers me most about all of that is it was based solely on racial bigotry and sense of superiority over people of color. It made them feel entitled to push us around in order to satisfy their sense of power and control. Mainstream society keeps telling me to "ignore" these "isolated" incidents, then blame me for being "bitter" about the past - i.e., get over it already, it was a LONG time ago. How can people who claim to be "smart" and "good" be so ignorant/naive?
