Nothing like mutual respect to build up the nation.

"Lord, in the memory of all the saints who from their labors rest, and in the joy of a new beginning, we ask you to help us work for that day when black will not be asked to get in back, when brown can stick around. . .when the red man can get ahead, man; and when white will embrace what is right. That all those who do justice and love mercy say Amen. Say Amen. . ."

I thought that the whites had already embraced the "right," politically. Maybe they are yet to do so. Maybe this will help them to.

yes it's all the whites fault. OK, we now have a half black president so we don't have to feel bad about keeping them all down for all these years....
