so yesterday we had this discussion about race at my school. there was this girl there who said she hadn't spoken to a black person until she came to this college. this wouldnt have bothered me except she mentioned it about 10 times throughout the entire discussion.
she also mentioned that her grandmother was puerto rican, yet she looked white and spoke as if, because her grandmother was puerto rican, she was having her own internal racial conflicts.
Huey P Newton's grandfather was white, I wonder if he ever thought he could call himself white. (sarcasm/joke/make what you will of that statement).
I just found this all very weird.
