RACIST

This is for Frank Schwab;
I grew up with and live in a valley which consists mostly of heavily prejudiced people. First of all, you have to understand the underlying dynamic of racism, sexism and other sorts of discrimination; people feel threatened. You can add that with the “black man” the Englishman’s prejudice began instantly–the earliest references were to subhumans which looked remarkably like humans. I remember that so vividly because as a white child I wanted to kill the author. But no matter.
When I say they feel threatened, they have to feel superior to. That’s half a rich man’s dynamic, after all. Part of that (we’ll ignored all of the stuff I just implied, and yeah I meant it) means that you have to hold with “the guys” or naturally you’re on the other side.
So, Frank, to them you’re worse than usual, I should add. You’re a traitor to the party. Can you guess my attitude toward prejudice, or must I spell it out again?
