Debra:
I think that WHEN they select me it'll be for that very reason . . . because I'm a case study of what our population is evolving into, one end of the spectrum or t'other. And that's what I told them. There's much to learn by dissecting the past of a person who's as white as white can be when you know you'll find folks who are African American. And if that's the situation, can't something like this become a step in the right direction towards helping people understand the absolute absurdity of racism? It's come to the point that, in reality, if we are downgrading our neighbor because of their skin color, we are in essence downgrading ourselves because if we go back no more than 2 generations, I'm willing to bet we'll find things we NEVER expected to find.
And that's my platform. And I'm sticking to it!!
My picture goes in tomorrow's mail . . . & once they receive that, my application is official.
Blessings -- Linda
