Our country, indeed, throughout our history, has yet to acknowledge the problems we have created through hundreds of years of slavery and over one hundred years of segregation.
Yes, it is true that we have made some gains in the area of race relations as a nation as shown by our ability to finally elect a man of color to be our president, and by the presence of so many fine people of color who, in America, teach, serve our nation in so many ways, author fine books and contribute in many ways to the world of science and other areas.
But, in my opinion, we have, as a nation, ignored our responsibility to sit down together as a full community to come up with solutions and funding that would allow for us, as a nation, to overcome the challenges and obstacles that America created and that continue to plague our American people of color.
