Just curious, why is there a "black community"? Maybe I'm just an ignorant life long suburbanite but where I live we have folks of all ethnic backgrounds in our area. My kids have friends who are white, black, asian, indian, hispanic and my wife and I are friends with many of the kid's parents. I don't belong to a "white community" and from what I know, none of them belong to a "community" of their ethnicity.

I'm sick of being told because I'm white that I don't understand the "black community." Is it because I don't live in a large city where there is more racism? Is it because I was raised to respect others, like I've raise my kids and I judge people on their character? This may be way off but if you consider yourself part of a ethnic "community" are you simply being as racist as the people your accusing?
