Such good points by all. Having grown up in the sixties, like Sharon, I too have seen my share of bigotry. Where I grew up, was all white, with two Latin families. My Dad was from "OLD" Texas, and very bigoted. I never knew why, but didn't dare ask. As soon as I graduated High School, I joined the Military, which was going through major civil rights changes. Bigotry was not tolerated, period!!! (Right!) The two extremes have mad me very aware of all sides, and I stand up whenever I feel the need. Being a very bacwards, redneck area where I am, haven't had to speak up for one of our sisters, but have for some black guys at seven eleven one night. Huggs, Bonnie
