I am happy we are able to talk about this. I am not an expert on racial relations, but I have spent many hours listening to stories of discrimination, as I interviewed individuals. Most of the time, the people I interviewed wanted to be heard and given a "fair", if not equal, chance at employment and wages, better living conditions, education, not to be harassed, not be labeled inferior, etc.
The notion that Egyptians (because of their color) were not capable of constructing the Pyramids, and the statements that they are not Black, and another comment that African Americans promoted the idea....It was just too similar to "they, them, and those people", these statement smack of superiority (IMHO) as they are separating. I would have thought most people reading these comments would be as out-raged by them as I am?
