I am an American born to Ghanaian parents. Please stop acting as if you’re the first black people or Africans to live here. My very first friend was white, his mom dutifully dropped him off in our low income apt.

Thanks for sharing a sweet story.

OMG thanks Ed for sharing this, I personally am appalled w all the divisive articles, here in Canada it’s expected w have friends of all colours, it’s unusual if you don’t since families all bi-racial, smh

Don't let them fool you at all into thinking that we do not have friends of all colors here in America. We do indeed. They are lying. Racism is maybe a big thing in some cities but they push it to further divide people. Lots of bi-racial families too!

Amen. That is the gospel.

Of course. We know that's the case. It's disgusting what leftists and media are doing. It's called cultural Marxism. Also dividing the sexes.

I see you're a Antifa hater. Do you know what "Antifa" means? You'd rather support the popular Right side belief that this "fake news". Well have at it! By the likes of your post, it seems futile to try to help you understand the complexity of your thoughts.

The fact that you need to "help" someone understand paints you as intolerant. The very thing you claim to be against. I'm out.
