Question:
There is no need for white people to think of other groups because everything is designed to be so easy for them … it is a “luxury” that they don’t even appreciate. Most black folks are forced to think about racial issues quite frequently, whether we want to or not. I imagine that it would be a luxury not to carry that burden.

What do you think?

Answer:

I agree. Please understand there are white people who recognize that. You will know them by their deeds.
