    I'm white and I admit it is well written. I enjoy the passion and overall feel of it. I don't necessarily agree with the police thing as I have read up on more then a few statistics, but I also cant say it doesn't happen. I honestly think progress is being made, slowly but it is. It's better then it was 20 years ago, and even better then 20 years before that. I think this next generation of millenials are moving in the right direction with the mindset of being open minded and accepting the merging of cultures. As much as I hate this PC culture it is getting people to be more open to other groups and speak less harshly of others. I think the next 20 years is going to be much more fruitful on the equality factor.
