[QUOTE="RDKirk, post: 77610529, member: 326155"] When I was a kid, race was [B][I]the [/I][/B]hard barrier for my parents every day. No other personal characteristic mattered, race was the hard barrier. As you have alluded, today there are a good many soft barriers. IMO, being black is the same level of barrier as the others today with the younger generations. The capacity of someone (excluding extreme and uncommon situations) to harm me for my race is at the same level as their capacity to harm me for my height or physical attractiveness. It's almost amazing to me that many white people today even recognize physical beauty in black people that is not in accordance with European standards of beauty. There are young white guys with posters of black women on their walls...that's freaky to me. [/QUOTE]
