White skinned but not white brained
Karen Charlotte,
Montpelier, VA.
I’m a native Mid-Westerner who has lived in the South about 90% of my life. I try my best to learn about people as individuals not stereotypes and rid myself of any remaining prejudices lurking in my psyche. I hate it when I find myself in a room with only white faces and they assume I have the same prejudiced attitudes they hold. And if someone tells an ethnic joke (of any variety) I tell my favorite “ethnic” (fill in the blank) joke. “What’s black and blue and lies on the floor?” Answer? “The next person to tell an “ethnic” joke!”
