Nothing new to see here, Doc, move along. OK, other than state sponsored kidnapping, nothing new to see here. :o

I'll say it anyway.
White folks as a whole confound me. They seem to have this collective sense that it is somehow ok for them to bleach the whole world and make it white in their image. History is full of examples I could use.
Not trying to sound racist or anything or be hateful. It's just an observation.
If I had my way, everybody would be like me. Mixed beyond all sense of reason. There would no longer be racism. Just human beings... People. Brown people of various shades, but people. I think this attitude scares white folks, because white stains so easily. Once you stain it, it's tough making it white again.
All alone, or in twos,
The ones who really love you
Walk up and down outside the wall.
Some hand in hand
And some gathered together in bands.
The bleeding hearts and artists
Make their stand.
And when they've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy
Banging your heart against some mad buggers wall.
"Isn't this where...."
