Reply #65: Really, mine isn't [View All]

I'm glad you relate to the Homo Sapien race as a whole. I never have been able to do that, and to be honest, I'm glad that I don't. I love my culture. I want it to exist forever. My culture produced some of the greatest poets and artists in history (I may be biased since I am part of their culture, but I like them nonetheless). I want my culture to continue to survive. I want it to change with the modern world, but retain its identity and let its roots influence its future.

I don't want a melting pot where all cultures are boiled down so all of us are the same. I enjoy a wold where different races and their cultures co-exist. This is way I favor Affirmative Action. Not because I want to rectify some past wrong that white people did to minorities. I favor Affirmative Action because I think there is a value to racial and cultural diversity in the work, education and social environments. I don't want us all to be on one culture, there just does not seem to be any fun in that. I enjoy living in a multi-racial world.
