Political correctness, good or bad?

82. I do realize that I have benefited from white privilege ...

but I have worked through my life to support civil rights for all. I would like to see my grandchildren living in a world where there was truly equal opportunity and all people showed respect for others.

While I realize that our nation has a long history of racism, I personally feel no guilt because of that as I can only feel quilt for my own actions.

It is quite possible that some of my ancestors fought on the Northern side of the Civil War to free slaves. I do know that both my mother and father were not racist. My dad often told me that our nation is a great melting pot and we would eventually benefit when all races were intermixed. He predicted that this would finally occur in one hundred years which would be 2060 as he died in 1962. He also accurately predicted that our nation would go though a long period of turmoil but that the extreme racism that existed in his time would end and our nation would be far better off because of it.

I think we agree on many points.
