is race an issue

Well, to say the least this has been a good week. I am starting to feel better. Although I am extremely sick of UTIs. I have to go to a concert for Music at 730, so I thought I would get in some blogging. Class was definitely interesting this week.

So, do I think race is an issue? I think it is, but at the same time it should not have to be. I think that the past is in the past and all mistakes should be let go, but still respected. If all people could forget the past, would there still be any racial tension? I think so. People seem to criticize anything that is different from themselves, uncomfortable. I think sometimes it is easier to point fingers at others, rather than try to understand it. It is more comfortable to just surround yourself with what you are comfortable with. I am not trying to say everyone needs to run out and get a new bff that is a different race. I am trying to say there is nothing wrong with being around who you want to be around. Im sick and tired of people trying to rush change. I say out with affirmative action and judging people for who they hang out with. What is meant to happen will. Although in some cases history does repeat itself, I dont think we are in any jeopardy of slavery returning.

I am sure I could ramble about this for an hour and a half, but we are writing a paper about this right now, so i'll save some for that.
