The biggest obstacles in guaranteeing equality for everyone are people like alansmithee. It doesn't matter how hard I try, I am unable to see people for who they are. I am forced to see the color of a person's skin, because that is what most black people want. They don't want to be treated equally. They want to be held apart from the crowd and recognized for being different.
Do you honestly believe that the NAACP and Jesse Jackson and crew will EVER go away? Hell no. What would they do for a living if they couldn't constantly shout about how the poor black person is so stepped on and put down? If I could guarantee that American society will be color blind starting tomorrow and will stay that way for eternity, black rights groups would still be doing what they do best.
I am the biggest non-racist that I know. I truly see people for the content of their character and not the color of their skin. I am blatantly called a racist because of this, however. Anyone who doesn't feel sorry for black people is called a racist. How fucked up is that?
