I appreciate that you took the time to help me learn more about Israel. Yes, America is a very racist country....and being a Black female in America, I know up close and personal about bigotry and discrimination. <BR/><BR/>In America, it is very easy to categorize people and to stay segregated. Whether by race, skin color, religion, or economic status, Americans have developed the “us” versus “them” mentality. My hope is that one day, the entire world as a whole will no longer uphold racism and prejudice. I am very much looking forward to visiting the land of Israel!! :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
