Commenters have mentioned the fact that us Bigots have more actual experience talking with minorities than whites who are militantly anti-white do. In the segregation days it was generally admitted that the average Yankee could count on one hand the number of actual blacks he had ever talked to, though he freely called us “prejudiced,” which means to judge a thing without seeing it.

What might be called my first multicultural experience was when I went to a segregated first grade. My nearest potential white playmate was a mile away, and I didn’t starting going to his place until I learned to ride a bike.

My last book included the Mantra as well as a denunciation of Mommy Professor, and I gave copy to the black female guard, or Courtesy Officer, downstairs. She read the whole book that day, and in fact the manageress said she was a bit worried about her guard duties since every time she saw her, her face was buried in that book.

First, of course, not many working people get a book from the author. Secondly, my book was an answer to all those people who imply that you don’t know anything unless you’ve been to college.

But it also contained a defense of the existence of my race, and I never hesitated to give it to a black woman who talks to everyone in the building where I own my living space.

From then until she was transferred by her company she kept assuring me she was my biggest fan.

I got up a conversation on the net some time back with a black guy who was born in West Columbia, just as I was. He couldn’t see anything wrong with my wanting to keep my race alive in the immigration and assimilation craze, though he himself had hated segregation.

He said it was a noble sentiment, he just hadn’t thought of it that way before.

It IS a noble sentiment. I have never hidden it from any member of a minority group.

There is general impression that somehow in order to have a non-white like you, you have to guarantee him your daughter. But no Orthodox Jew is going to do that. All those wild assimilationists who call themselves Christians do not consider that the only wedding Jesus blessed, the Wedding at Cana, would not have been blessed by him if it had been multicultural.

It is almost impossible to get any rabbi to even attend, much less perform, a multicultural wedding involving a Jew or Jewess.

If they are going to use the word multicultural when they mean multiracial, we might as well get some mileage out of it.

There is only one final solution to race problem. That was the problem in the debate over segregation. The same people who said integration had nothing to do with intermarriage then now say the whole purpose was the final solution, interracial marriage.

This is the kind of thing respectable cosnervatives make a living by never remembering.
