This is very awesome, a "Black" President in the White House - What does it mean or change ???

October 20 of 2008.

This Note is Written Before the November 4 Election of Barack Obama.

It's incredible !

Many People in America and around the World are not going to believe it. A "Black" President of the USA. What has changed in America ???


From the "Los Angeles Times" :

"ATLANTA -- Tonya Jones doesn't want to imagine what it would feel like to have a black president in the White House."I want to feel that euphoria, but I can't," said Jones, an African American hairstylist who was hanging out in front of her shop here on a slow afternoon. "Because I don't want to put myself way up here" -- with this she raised her hand over her head -- "only to fall." She let her hand plunge downward like a falling elevator.

"Everybody's on edge,
I'm telling you," she said.




Black voters feeling a mix of 'anticipation, hope, pride -- and fear'

Black voters feeling a mix of 'anticipation, hope, pride -- and fear'



****************************************


New words are coined :

Lately we hear a lot of talk about "post-raciality", "bi-raciality" and "non-raciality". But I think that "raciality" has more future than "non-raciality".

For centuries the concept of "racism" has been very important in discussions of race relations, whereas raciality has been a non existent word.

"Racism" is a very negative word with very negative meanings. It brings memories of the Ku Klux Klan and picnics to hang Black Men from trees, in those picnics children were invited and they took photos of the hanging Black Men.

"Raciality", is a new word, to describe other feelings, this word does not have to be so negative, in fact, it could be a positive concept for a New Era with New Human Beings.

We don't think that racism is going to disappear overnight ( form November 4 to November 5 of 2008 ) but is going to become more subtle, more covert, more hypocrite, more hypocrisy.

And people that have been despised because the color of their skin or facial traits will have more freedom to breathe some fresh air .... or not ???

And this applies not only to Blacks, but to Latinos, Asians, Native American Indians, Racials and Multiracials and others.
