"People of Culture"

[Inkfreak]

43. I think that when

the right-wing uses those words they take on a negative meaning. Because we know they mean to exclude anyone not in their club. But those words don't necessarily mean bad things, right?

Legacy & heritage are things all cultures would cherish, I think. Now the right-wing can define themselves as that, but they are challenged regularly by more forward thinking people like us.

Being called a minority isn't bad at all. They would have us think that in their phrasing of it. "Those minorities are coming over here to take our money." But to me, that's all nonsense. I won't let them own the conversation by misrepresenting the meaning of words.

Anywho, I dunno if I'm making any sense or just rambling. I get what you mean and where it's coming from. It's just that if someone from another place came to my lil town, they would see a type of culture they might not see elsewhere. So saying "people of culture" in place of minority almost seems to say we have none. And I kinda don't like that. We here in Oswego, NY would disagree.
