Harold,

Hey there. Thanks for taking time out to read my essay. I’m glad you found something useful in it. It seems with each passing day that it’s becoming more difficult for people with differing opinions to have reasonable discussions about those differences in opinion. Your comment prompted me to write a response that got longer and longer the more I thought about it, and the next thing I knew I had another post. Go figure.

Anyway, here’s my response to your comment.

Again, thanks for your time and feel free to share the heck out my essays. You can find more of my writing about race relations in America here.

Have a great day.
