But I hope it sheds light to all races on issues of colorism, racism, violence and the intended and unintended consequences of race based societies. Unfortunately matters that are so important for so many people dont really get discussed openly. Maybe it is because it is painful for those who experienced and uncomfortable for those who might practice it.

I haven't been treated bad for being black but, when I think about what our forefathers went through, I feel very bad and so I can relate with Diane's story. Although, I will never know haw bad it feels to be different from other members of the family and also be treated differently. Nice review Mary, more ink to your pen.Karohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17258550142642877439noreply@blogger.com
