I found the visit to the Schomburg Museum and Library very interesting because it displayed just how fortunate we are to be in America. How people are risking their lives, and in some cases still living like animals. As bad as things get we are still not relegated to living under inhumane conditions it is against the law. It made me want to go and hug someone who is from another country to show a sense of empathy, and also made me want to kiss the ground because I am born American and know matter what their are no boundaries placed on my life.

    Levi,
    I'm really sorry I missed this exhibit. Your reaction is very touching but I wonder...are there places in America where these things happen? Not only in the time of Katrina and other natural disasters but I know that somewhere in this nation, even in this city, there are people who are living in conditions that many of us would deem inhumane. Thoughts?

    I sometimes think that society certain society and not only white seems to treat be black as if it is a curse and I have never felt cursed by it. We deal with things here that are negative but on another level i sometimes feel that here white people have turned blacks against one another as everybody seems want to make the white powers that be happy....
