Re: #52. Why? You seem to be suggesting that, say, not being black blinds me
to the fact that black people on both continents are underprivileged. I find
that extremely offensive and racist and, if that's an example of you being 
"more up front about your prejudices," then speaking as a European, I'd much 
prefer you to act like one.

As a sidenote, I really can't understand the modern attitude to minorities and
the underprivileged, insofar as it seems to tolerate no prejudice from the
majority towards the minorities (which is good), but almost ENCOURAGES 
prejudices from the minorities towards the minority. NOT helpful.
