It&#x27;s sad but some older minority folks grew up fearing white racism or hating whites, and never wanted to integrate. Maybe it&#x27;s just a small irrelevant data point, but a friend&#x27;s grandmother went to her grave hating whites because her white teachers from elementary through high school would tape her mouth, and her sister&#x27;s, with duct tape for hours for speaking Spanish.<p>The reality is that we live in a racist world, which continues to perpetuate because blacks &#x2F; Browns and whites are divided, for the most part, across economic lines that will take a long time to be erased, and those economic lines create cultural lines that are harder to bridge.
