One of the problems we have in this country is people believe that since slavery was "ended" in 1864 (the year the Civil War ended, then people of color should not talk about it any more, it shouldn't affect African Americans and it's "their own fault they're in the situation they're in". When slavery stopped, all African Americans couldn't just go to any school, get any job and live anywhere they pleased. There was still hate after that era. It took until 1954 for the schools to start to be intergrated. (Remember George Wallace flyingdave?) In Miami, Florida intergration of schools didn't start until 1970. In the 1960's, the highest rated television show was by Nat King Cole. It had to go off the air because he didn't have any sponsors. That's like Seinfield not getting a sponsor. There is so many other things to tell you flyingdave but alas, you wouldn't listen.
Moreover, if Dr. King came back and saw what was being done in his name he would never stop throwing up.
