      NOW, WHY HAVE YOU SAT THERE AND LIE. THE WHOLE 60S AND 70'S WAS ABOUT BLACK POWER, UNITY AND LOVE ❤ FOR THE BLACKS THOUGH OUR DANCING. WHILE AMERICAN BAND STAND DEMONSTRATED "WHITE SUPREAMIST". JIM CROW LAW AND SUNDOWN LAW JUST LEFT IN 1968 BUT, NOT ENTIRELY . MY BRUTALLY EXPERIENCES WITH COLOR SIGNS PUBIC RESTAURANTS , PUBLIC REST ROOM AND SCHOOLS ARE VERY VIVID. HOW DARE YOU BRING IN FALSE LIES SO THAT YOU AND YOUR KIND CAN FIT IN FALSELY. WHEN SOUL TRAIN FRIST AIR, PRIDE AND AND TOTAL CONFIDENCE SET IN ON THE CONSCIENCES OF MY PEOPLE. WHY, WOULD YOUR PEOPLE SEEK "REFUGE" ON RIGOROUS RACISM WHEN IT CAME FROM YOUR PEOPLE.

      Yes. We enjoyed our differences...and gave room for others to be different. We wanted to see each person for who he/she was. Not surface race/skin. Even in to the 90s Michael Jackson said "I don't want to live my life being a color" In the 70s KC could be "black"...Charley Pride could be "white".....and we laughed at ourselves for limiting people because of their skin.
