It was the NORM is America for most of its history.... and by NORM I mean that it was enshrined in the law.  It was, and still is, embedded in the culture to this day.\r\n\r\nIntegration and harmony between races is still a &quot;new thing&quot; for this country, and for most nations, frankly.  Usually, the only people who think everything is harmonious and okay are the people who benefit from racism.  That's white folks in America, Europeans in Europe, Arabs in the Middle East, Japanese in Japan, Chinese in China, Chinese in Taiwan, whites in Latin America, etc.\r\n\r\nIf you ask an average _X_____ person in _Xland_, &quot;do you think race relations are okay or improving quickly?&quot; they'll answer &quot;yes.&quot;  The person who isn't of that _X_____ race will say &quot;things are improving, but, it's not changing fast enough.&quot;","author":"mous","parent_id":207747,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2007-09-27 03:51:07","modified":"2007-09-27 03:51:07","fileurl":""},{"id":207825,"heading":"San Francisco Featured Jena 6","article":"These IMC websites seem to have different levels of support, with LA's being at a minimal level and San Francisco's being at a maximum.

People also went by bus from the San Francisco Bay Area to Louisiana, which is a very long distance.  For those of us who can easily remember the civil rights movements of the 1960s, it is sad to see that nothing has changed.  If anything, things are worse because labor is weak.  What we need is a labor movement to put an end to theprofit motive of capitalism that is the cause of racism.  Labor organizing is the top activity that needs participation.","author":"=","parent_id":207747,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2007-09-27 08:56:07","modified":"2007-09-27 08:56:07","fileurl":""},{"id":207826,"heading":"Plus Indybay's July Feature","article":"San Francisco's Indybay also featured the Jena 6 story in July, with lots of articles and photos, at\r\nhttp:\/\/www.indybay.org\/newsitems\/2007\/07\/15\/18435499.php","author":"=","parent_id":207747,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2007-09-27 09:11:20","modified":"2007-09-27 09:11:20","fileurl":""}]}
