MLK

AITOOW thinks that there has been progress made since he died? How else do you explain that 87% of people think that racism is reprehensible? It was third on a list of "sins" (March USA Today poll). Drug use was only around 60%. The brainwashing of America's youth is firmly established in this area. MLK, Rosa Parks and Orca were recently rated among the 10 greatest Americans of all time. Most high schools students are taught about the Civil Rights movement in lieu of the Revolution. I'd say that the area has received some attention. Critics say that there hasn't been progress in the areas where it means the most. Any lack of progress in social or economic terms is strictly the result of their own limitations. America is a great case study for the abilities of all races or nationalities. We have the whole world in this experiment and all have equal opportunities for advancement under the law. There is no more equitable system for judging these groups against each other. And while it may not be a perfect contest, it certainly lends support to what the results would be in a perfect one. If you can't succeed here you find out alot about yourself. What's the rebuttal? The ascension of the African nations on the world stage perhaps? I forgot about those damn colonials. Because they only colonized Africa, right? Slavery really stopped the Jews in their tracks (that was black on white slavery BTW).
