Reply to "Black and white in America"

I speak simple... i only speak how i feel and truly i DO feel that things and people opinions on race are more open in Europe... we can discuss with big words about generalization but we can also be honest and open about how we feel and how i feel is that America is much more racist than European countries i have lived in... i speak as I find, i speak as the mother of a mixed race child... yes of course there is racism everywhere and good and bad folk everywhere... however the media and the generalization in this country is far more segregated.... look at the movie with Queen latifah and Steve Martin.... the reviews for that movie in the UK were HORRIFIED that it was so stereotype and racist and characature... hardly ever was that mentioned in the US media as we have become accustom to it... now i don't mean to polarize this one issue/movie... again i have to generalize cos we are speaking in sound bite here on the boards ... but ON THE WHOLE... how i feel without having the time to type long long long thesis... is... America is more segregated than Europe and i do miss that!
Anyway.. am off to London today... so will get my fix!
