Sad

I know people who occasionally say things that are politically incorrect, or even racist and are horrified when they realize what they've said. That is simply ignorance and while it would be better not happening it becomes a learning process.

Unfortunately I also know people who swear they are not racist who, over the course of time, show that they certainly are. They try to hide it. They deny it emphatically if you call them on it and there is little hope that they will change.

The world will be a better place when no one feels the need to describe the person they are talking about by the color of their skin. As if that should make a difference. It does make a difference in our world now though.

And that is sad.
