41. "above it all"? When I wrote "the general point has merit" what did you not understand? (post #10)

Facts? You don't really read the posts you respond to. This is what you have to post here:

Was there anything else you wanted to say in the African American group? Anything else to show us how 'above it all' you are? I mean - kudos to you for being above it all.

It must be a burden posting here.


This is how you, the group host, treat people sympathetic to the cause.

It would be a mistake to think that everyone knows her gender or skin color. Bernardo de La Paz Oct 2017 #10
Same here, didn't know gender/color. Also I don't even know what this thread's about. thesquanderer Oct 2017 #12
Did you not read the OP? It says she's a strong black woman. George II Oct 2017 #15
Exactly. I read the OP and found out her skin color. . . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Oct 2017 #35

No arguments from me JustAnotherGen Oct 2017 #32
It would be a mistake to assume a kid's skin color is the same as the parent's. Bernardo de La Paz Oct 2017 #40
What she wrote was very much about being a black woman JI7 Oct 2017 #46
