People believe race relations are going down because there are so many charges of racism. I believe these increased charges of racism are made to control a person's position on political issues rather than real charges of social racism.
There have been so many charges of political racism that people are becoming immune and inflamed. The charge is losing its sting. People like you are fighting back. I believe it will not be long before a racism charge is like being called a communist after the McCarthy era. In the beginning, it had a sting, but after its overuse, it became meaningless.
This is what is happening in America. Minorities must be treated equally. Being treated equally requires equal responsibility. As long as blacks and other minorities are treated like misbehaving children, racial problems will exist.
