What system of oppression do you speak of? An official policy? Laws? Voting machines? MS Vista? .... well that's a form of oppression on all of us. Are these systems of oppression anything more than a buzzword, a great way to get a mansion, or a fear to let go of the past, to let go of the power mechanism, so we can all move forward?

You refuse to grasp, for whatever reason, that we are NOT coming from the same point of view. Not even close. I've noticed this tendency in many conservatives here - you just don't want to accept that folks like me are really, real people, lol.
Uh, nope, I don't get all up in arms when a black man screams, 'God Damn America.'
I don't get it - I'm more than aware that you guys are real, please let me be real.
You want to know something even more crazy? Get this, I wouldn't even be upset if Barack Obama himself screamed 'God Damn America!' But we both know that will never happen.
I assert that our views are
widely divergent, and I have learned that it is terribly loathsome for me to discuss this with you folks here - nor do I have the inclination...at all - I am quite comfortable that I have ascertained a realistic understanding of the situation.
I came back to this thread only to give a little support to the 'larger picture' of Rev. Wright according to a white member of his church and that is all. Take it or leave it. I will not get involved in yet another ideological grudge match on the topic of race. It's too depressing.
