I guess my point is everyone has some story
and the stories weren't necessarily caused by your race
and to attribute it to race, always, at all times , is wrong
you can choose to live in the here and now and adopt human kindness to everyone or you can fester in something that never happened to you and have it affect you and keep you and others in a destructive historical funk
and its especially wrong to continue to carry some historical, ancestral event as a constant open wound of your own, when all that does is ruin the kids coming up, causing perpetual, ever downward, pathologies and hatreds and keeps the cycle going, dooming people to despairing futures, instead of assuming a rightful place of success in america
