Color doesn't make a person. Character does. Much has been achieved; but much still needs to be done. Some people have let go of the past. Others refuse to. Such is human nature. When all bias has been eliminated, only then will the world be truly great in its potential for human dignity and advancement. I pray this happens before we won't have a world to pray for.
Thanks for your comment and engagement. I appreciate it. Take care.

I honestly never cared about race, only competency. In the military now for the most part that's how it works, and there are as many races as whites these days. I guess I grew up without racism in my family, and for that I am grateful. Then again I lived in South America and the Caribbean for more than 10 years. Many of my best friend are Latino or Black. I'm glad the military has moved on from the old race crap, it was wrong in the first place. Any man or woman who serves should be honored, especially if they lose their lives in combat. I have many nights that I can't sleep remembering those who didn't come back...
You are one of the lucky ones then if you grew up treating all people as equal according to the content of their character.

Plus as a side note, I have married Latina and Asian women in my marriages. didn't work out, but they've always attracted me!
Then...what's the common denominator in the "didn't work out" part:
Lololol...just kidding. Thanks so much for your engagement. Take care.
