Guest guest Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 well, i don't know who this was aim at, but I do hope that poeple in this group don't think I'm racist. I do go out of my way to make sure my kids read books that take place in other cultures. even though our town is 97 percent caucasian. I felt free to talk about european settlers, because I really did not think that anyone in 2005, shares any ancestry with these people, the dna is so watered down by now that no one would identify or have a relationship with people that existed hundreds of years ago. If I am wrong, then I apologize, certainly did not intend to offend anyone. I am currently reading a lot of literature (in their own words) of the settlers and am trying to put everything in perspective. I myself experience a form of racism almost on a daily basis. whenever somemone meets me for the first time they always say "where are you from" bcause, they can't classify me by the way I look. then when I say "i was born in nyc" they then say "no, where are you really from". instead of acepting me first hand. It becomes tiring and annoying having to explain my background so often. It should really not matter. I am working on not make judments/ prejudices about other people. But then it is so human to do so. I don't know a single person who is free of those two things. -anouk - fraggle 9/22/2005 1:15:01 PM Re: Moderator request how about*try* not to post anything that might cause offensesomeone is always gonna be miffed about something..we can't please everyonebut, overt racism(sexism, homphobia, etc) is not to be tolerated..not in this group, and not anywhere....Jo Cwazy <heartworkSep 22, 2005 10:04 AM Subject: Moderator requestRacism is not pleasant and will not be tolerated.Please do not post anything that might cause offence.

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Hi Anouk I don't remember you saying anything that could be thought of as racist - so don't worry. History is history and good for discussion. BB Jo , " zurumato@e...
