re: Racism today...

Secondly, I grew up around my father and uncles saying disparaging slogans about other people. My friends in the Midwest had no tolerence for my father and his language. They thought he was ignorant (he kind of is) and racist (he certainly is). However, on their first time to LA we stopped off at a Popeyes and they were floored by the service and attitude of the workers. It was at that moment that they understood what my father was speaking about in a cultural context.

I mean, you can't really judge a race by the people who work at Popeyes, but I reckon I understand what you are saying.
