It's not FORCING people to be together, it's not permitting segregation on behalf of either race.
LOL, well isn't that the same thing? If we disallow people from segregating, then what other choice do they have but being forced?Isn't that is what happening on some of today's campuses?I agree that people gravitate to those with similar interests, but if we limit our introduction to people who are the same race I feel that we are not realizing that, although they may be different in some respects, but similar in so many other ways.
The point I make is you can't change the way people feel. You can tell them it's not acceptable to say how they feel. You can tell them it's not acceptable to act on how they feel, but you can't change how they feel.
But if they do express the way they feel either by words or actions, we don't send them out to be reprogrammed like the book 1984 simply because it doesn't meet our standards. In a free country, we all have different standards.
So we have to ask ourselves, were we happier being segregated or desegregated? There seems to be a small movement (for now) of blacks desiring to be segregated once again. It's been expressed by blacks here on USMB.
Racism and bigotry are learned behaviors. Nobody naturally "feels" like segregating based on race.
No. Read more. You don't know what you are talking about.
