painful to watch.

Here's a question: One of my former students was telling me that he'd like to have homes in three cities, Toronto, New York, and Denver. I said, "Denver, my friend in Denver (meaning you 8bit) says there aren't any blacks there. My student (who is black) said, "Yes there are." -- Was that diet racism of me to say that? I felt kind of stupid after. As in, what was my point? -- I was just thinking of all the shit you go through.
