You’re brave for posting and examining your own shortcomings in front of a large online audience.

Let’s all remember skin color is just melanin. It has nothing to do with race. We are all from a human race. Race is imaginary.

Skin color (melanin) is real but race was an invention made for justifying racism. Nothing more nothing less.

Whatever the society has done in the name of race may have been atrocious and horrendous but it was never based on anything more than a myth of race.

There is no need to reason through the humanity and ramifications of a black Superman.

White people, you do not need to go searching for and find the humanity in black people.

You need to find your own humanity.

What white people have to do, is try and find out in their own hearts why it was necessary to have a nigger in the first place, because I’m not a nigger, I’m a man, but if you think I’m a nigger, it means you need it.

-James Baldwin
