Do Those Boxes have a Purpose?

Those stupid boxes. What purpose do they serve? Diversity? So all white people are the same? That seems to be the stereo-type and it's probably the one I hate the most.

We had a program last week at school: "Shades of Black." It was incredibly interesting and informative. I don't think I have ever felt more alone in my life.

A girl was talking about how "blacks" in America are really a diverse group of cultures and how white people need to realize this, and not group everyone together just based on skin color. In saying so, she had just turned around and done the same exact thing to "whites." Nobody seemed to see; nobody said anything. How that stung!

Many people talked about different stereotypes or manners or dress or food, and the general response was, 'well that's really regional, it's not race.' Tuche. The same for each side.
