    If and that's a huge IF they were denied I would suggest it's not a result of systemic racism. Recently a kid in Baltimore had some low GPA and was I the top half of his class supposedly. The local school board in Baltimore has 10 members and 9 are black.
    How many nationally elected officials have come from slavery? Now, tell me what percentage of our people are from families that were enslaved? The answer will show you that, at some level, the system is against that segment of our society.

    Ok, so why would that encourage you to attack the elite? Why not then attack those who pretend to be?

    People engaged in and supporting said perversions are not asking forgiveness! Repentance is needed for forgiveness they are not repenting they are basically sticking there middle finger up at God!

    I have three questions for you. One, how do I know which nationally elected officials "have come from slavery"? Two you haven't explained why that's a relevant indication of "systemic" racism. Three, who is "our people"?

    The only system against minorities especially blacks is the democrat party!

    I have taught my kids that it is generally not okay to judge an individual person based on ideas about the groups they belong to.

    I have intentionally had minority friends over to the house so they do not feel it is unusual.

    I have intentionally sent them to a very diverse public school to ensure they are not educated in a way that gives them a badly skewed view of the world.

    I have sued organizations for discrimination, and dedicated a portion of my career to doing so PRO BONO.

    I have supported qualified minorities who I believe are fair minded for offices of importance knowing they would fight any sign of systematic racism.

    I have donated money to schools that are majority minority that were struggling.

    I have worked to promote La Sistema music education, which if you look it up is a program devoted to ensuring that privileged and underprivileged children study music together to foster a culture that promotes a common interest among people who would otherwise not be as likely to know each other in that way.

    Off the top of my head those are a few things.

    You?
    If I may ask when you say minority friends who does that entail? I ask in the context of Lowell High School in San Francisco and all the headlines its been making. It is a school that is only 18% white (and 1/3 of the kids qualify as low income) yet is deemed to lack diversity. The reason being a majority of the students are of Asian decent. Usually when we think of race in America we think of black and white but Asians are often considered minorities as well.

    The public/private school is interesting. I think of my experience. I went to a private high school that was at least 50% non white and a good number of working class kids. There were surrounding neighborhoods that had large white (wealthier) populations where acquaintances went to public school. So public school alone doesn't equate to diversity nor do private schools necessarily mean a lack of it.

    But I agree that treating people with respect is very important. Now having a young daugther I admit it feels like conflicting information to say we're all God's children and to treat everyone with respect and then having the eventual talk about 'stranger danger' and the need to protect oneself.
