    The people who say "I don't see color" do so from a position of privilege because they've never had to suffer mistreatment due to the color of their skin.

    Back in the day...a long, long, long time ago when I was in grammar school...a question often asked was, "What are you?" And I, like many of the kids in my school would respond with, "Italian."

    We meant our heritage was Italian. My Father and all my grandparents came from Italy...and we said we were Italian.

    We loved our country...pledged allegiance to the flag...and were American kids.

    There was no insult meant in what we said...and there is no insult meant in the Somalian-American designation.

    These conservative assholes are losing so much these days...they have to find molehills and try to make mountains out of them.

    Ya gotta laugh at them.

    Hate to tell you hot shot but many higher security clearances cannot be granted to people with dual citizenship. Unless they reject to other citizenship. So you figure it out.

    Why does she need to? She can't be proud of her heritage without advertising it?

    "At the peak of the #MeToo movement, 300,000 people turned out for last January's women's march and rally in downtown Chicago. The momentum continued when 100,000 showed up for October's March to the Polls event right before the midterm elections. The organization Women's March Chicago decided two marches is enough for one year, so it will not be holding a march during the movement's 3rd anniversary in January."

    It sounds like Affirmative Action to me. We must X number from Y group. Why? Are those people even qualified? Or did they vote for them because they are on the intersectional spectrum?
