"Black people have been treated badly in this nation"
Really? I hadn't noticed.
You didn't say you were being sarcastic. I'm asking you this out of genuine concern:
Are you okay? Have you had headaches lately? Blurred vision? Has anyone around you noticed a sharp change in your behavior or memory?
If not, then perhaps I'll repeat this until one of the interns can explain it to you:
-The OP states we should 'appreciate' The South for 'giving us Rock and Roll'.
-The point I made, that you missed entirely, was that The South has historically been antagonistic to the very people who were most responsible for bringing about 'Rock and Roll'.
-You responded by saying that this nation (the USA) has not been antagonistic to black people, and that black people are not most responsible for giving us Rock and Roll.
-I suggested that you have all the historical sense and understanding of a mushroom.
I really don't know what to say to someone that denies saying what they clearly said. Just what is it that you think went 'over my head'? It is very clear what went over yours since your very first admission in this exchange was that you failed to comprehend what I said.
