How about having no criminal record, a great gpa, good job experience and no negative remarks from any former employers, but not being hired to jobs and then testing the theory that it was because I was black and changing my race on the application from Black to Decide Not to Answer and getting calls to the same places, who wouldn't call when I stated my race.

This is illegal, contact the EEOC with information and documentation. I would also verify that they were in fact hiring both times, but this shouldn't happen and has been illegal for 40+ years.

I never said all white people are racist, that's very untrue, I'm also not of the belief that all black people aren't racist.

I didn't insinuate that you did. I stated that it should be few, when you stated many. You made a point to say not all, but also made a point to say many, just as you say that the Old South will comeback any day. There are bigoted idiots all over, their opinions are irrelevant for the most part and not reflective of the majority of civilized people.

The rest of your response other than the assertion that America wasn't ready for a woman present is entirely your experiences and how you took them. They are your experiences so I won't interject my opinion other than to say that I would get TF out of wherever you live. I grew up in an area where as a white teen/young man I was a target and getting out was the best thing I ever did.
