How I value Diversity

I was shopping at Walmart yesterday. I live in a Diverse Community so you see everyone but rich people in this Walmart. It made me feel good to see blond haired couples with a couple towheaded kids. Or Redheads, Gingers with freckles. I have dark hair or did before is went mostly gray. My Mom called my eye color Hazel but I put brown on my drivers license. My wife sometimes is mistaken for a High Yellow. I think it would be sad if we all end up being Brown. The Black people in this Walmart also are a diverse group, we are just outside of New Orleans so we have a mixture of peoples here and I am glad for that but real blonds and redheads are a tiny minority and because those traits are recessive if no effort is made to preserve those genes they could go away.
