July 22nd, 2009 5:54 pm ET To my knowledge I have never seen a program on CNN about Hispanics in America, & Asians in America, etc. Correct me if I'm wrong please. I just wonder why everything just seems so black and white in this country. Los Angeles, CA Lina Wong |

July 22nd, 2009 8:07 pm ET I am an Africa American or better put it an African. I have watched and listened to documentaries or programs about blacks in the America which is very good. What I also noticed is that we continue to talk about America like it is about only blacks and whites. I think we also need to talk more about other minorities in America who also go through most if not everything we black people go through. I would like to see more light shine on Latinos, Asians, Hispanics, American Indians and all other minority groups in America. |

July 23rd, 2009 6:24 am ET Read "Tom Sawyer" and "Huckleberry Finn"!! The "N" word is used, and it will infuriate u to no end. Well, if you are a racists it won't. And when Slave Escapee Jim bleeds while traveling down the MISSISSIPPI river...I would hope it would open ur eyes. Written by Mark Twain(White, from the South), over a 100 yrs ago, he saw the light. As did our founding Father's. This may be crude, but I can breed any female human on Earth. That makes them the same as I. Human!! I can't breed a dog, a horse, a whale, an ape, or a chimp..or any other animal. Yea, I can hear the jokes already! I can give you my blood, my organs..to save ur life. Deal with it! I'm white, blonde, blue eyed, and male. I'm married to a woman of color, and all her parts seem to be in just the right places!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
