Since dark brown dominates light colors when mixed it only makes sense that the color would be tan! I don't find that to be a racist idea. I know its hard to swallow for people that may be of a lighter skin, but your great, great,great grand children are probably going to be classified as tan if not black one day, LOL! but thats the fact. So why can"t we all be friends now instead of waiting until then.

On another note:Swissgirl, regarding going back in time and another place when we all spoke alike, I take it that you are talking about the dark skinned african people.

I personally think that there isn't as much racism as there is discrimination. Form what "I" see its more of a class distinction and of course racism plays into this.

I am always excited to go to sleep! In anticipation of the new experience I will find awaiting me.
