I was just in Chattanooga Tennessee and the hate I felt from Caucasian men young, middle age and elderly was beyond belief in 2009. You could just feel hate in their stares and blocking our car from the gas pump. A young Caucasian male would not allow my friend, who is half Caucasian and African American, he could pass for a 6'2 moroccon Arab. We needed to fuel the car to head back to Washington DC, after visiting his Caucasian mother who works in the Alexian retirement Center in the mountains of Chattanooga, such a beautiful place with hatefulness all around, did I miss something or should this still be expected? Pardon my description just painting a mental picture for you all, I wish CS mixed with DMSO could harmonize this issue with some of the American family A.

I was not aware that there was such prejudice against NAs. I'm sorry. I look at things a bit backward from the rest of the world anyway. I remember as a child my mother was explaining to me how the Jews were hated and what Hitler had done. My question was why did people hate the Jews when it should be the Germans that were hated? Of course, no one nationality should be *hated* for anything. That would be like "throwing the baby out with the bath water." It can be hard, however...especially when it seems a whole country backs the craziness. I wonder how many times NAs have saved our white butts...
