11. It would be nice
if certain people would try to put themselves in the shoes of others whose experience is different from theirs. Blacks have always been considered the "others" in this society and now they are being referred to as refugees. I cannot recall that that term has been used to describe other displaced Americans. Why now when most of the victims of this tragedy are black? Can you not see how that might look to black Americans?
