There’s a joke that is worth repeating. It is so old it comes from the days when the only serious minorities in America were Jews and blacks.
One day an angel appeared before a black man, a Jew and a White Anglo-Saxon Protestant (WASP) and said, “I am here to offer each of you your fondest wish!”
The black man said, “My people have been hated and exploited by white people for centuries, and I’m sick of it! My wish is that all of our people were back in Africa!”
“Your wish is granted,” Said the angel, and the black man disappeared.
The Jew said, “My people have been persecuted even longer! White gentiles have driven us all over the world and hated us. My fondest wish is that all Jews could be in Israel.”
“Your wish is granted!” Shouted the angel, and the Jew disappeared in a puff of holy smoke.
Then the angel looked at the WASP and said, “Don’t YOU have a wish?”
The WASP pondered a while and then said, “So all the blacks are in Africa and all the Jews are in Israel, eh?”
The angel replied, “Yes.”
The WASP said, “I think I’ll take a Diet Coke.”
