This is a great piece of thought. As a professional civil and human rights facilitator for more than 30 years, I believe this will home for those that are in denial that racism does not exist in the USA. As a national and federal diversity trainer, I believe this will be covered by me and others in the future. Thanks for Sharing! No argument, just a deep reflection on individual life!

--Amazing! I've never heard about this and that's a shame in and of itself.

Just wanted to share this wonderful piece of information:
According to Gates, an African-American physicist "These examples have led him to conclude that "diversity actually matters, independent of the moral argument." Gates said he believes "there is a science of diversity out there waiting for scholars to discover it."The issue is whether or not we want to embrace the responsibility we all share in asking ourselves simple questions like one that Einstein may have asked himself,"What would my (My = my father, grandfather, great grand-father, (mother) etc.) life be like if I were black?"Ask yourself a simple question like this --- How many of our young White/European American Boys have been shot and killed by our Police Officer here in United States?Why is it that we don't know that Albert Einstein, a Jew and one of the most revered intelligent persons ever, was such an active fighter for Civil Rights here in America. While Einstein can make a general statement like "a disease of White people", we dare not. So we know that we have some Whites/European Americans who are not Racist, we just need to identify who they are. A good way would be to see who all aligns with our struggles, especially the rights of our Children!!I wonder what other information is hidden from us?Rob
