It's pretty awful being told you're a racist.
I don't know how racists live with their racism. We need to take the road of love. I don't think folks are born that way; it's learned and taught out of fear.
Racism tears down your insides so that no matter what you achieve, you're not quite up to snuff.
For everybody, I think that we all, when we look at this situation of race, we need a change of heart, and I said it before.

Racism is ridiculous no matter where it's coming from.
Racists are irrational and illogical in their attempts to justify their prejudices.
