With all due respect, regardless of how it sounds am not and have never been a racist. Moreover, I have never committed any such acts. I am 68 years old. have I seen minorities abused? yes. Have I seen minorities treated with favoritism? yes

@Grecio

I didn't mean to imply that you are. That was just my interpretation upon first reading through your post. People who who want the slate wiped cleaned usually have some bad stuff written on their slate.

I actually like the idea. It could lead to to some productive conversations and reconciliations. Might be a bit cringy as well though. Like when starbucks created that PR campaign in which they encouraged patrons to converse with their baristas about race relations.

@RoboGraham I didn't know about Starbucks. I think if some organized group would take up the cause then the idea has a chance. Maybe some benevolent club. Maybe the Rainbow Coalition, but I never hear anything about them anymore. Thanks for your support.

@Fred_Snerd Like quota systems for jobs and college entrance.

@Grecio

The starbucks thing had good intentions but it resulted in a lot of awkwardness and became a laughingstock by the end.

Thanks for your comment. However, there are already a bunch of people offended on all sides. I don't think starting over can make things worse.

Thank you for your positive comment. I think all we can do is try and do what we can.
