Yeah, so I was cleaning out my jumpdrive last night, and I came across something that looks like it was the beginning of a paper or something. I guess I just wasn't feeling it with this subject, so I changed it. But the cool part was that I completly forgot I wrote this, so its kinda like finding money in your pocket!! cept you cant really spend it . . . .hmm
Race. The vary word conjures up an idea in the mind which would seem harmless. An image of the youth of our nation competing in a simple footrace in the neighborhood, seeing who will have bragging rights for the next five minutes, until everybody is recovered, and ready to start the next race. Just harmless fun, entertaining activities. Even providing an activity that creates a bond amongst friends, in the innocent. This is a race. Humiliation, disgrace, degradation, shame, hardship, angst, torment, suffering, affliction. These are words which we conjure when we hear the word race used in a different manner, concerning the amount of melanin in our skin, or the country from which a person has originated.
