marcinmoka Posted May 20, 2007 Report Posted May 20, 2007 Blacks and orientals are a tougher situation. Given their visible differences, they don't "melt" into the melting pot so readily But I would say that is a sizable chunk for such a relatively short period of history. And both Jews and Catholics had it rough for quite a length of time. The U.S is better, that I would not disagree with. But the notion of "pattern", and Hitler as a savior still seems foul a notion in my view. But back to the original premise, both groups can learn much from each other.

Every day, I do business with a black female Jamaican partner, a Hispanic paralegal finishing law school, three other Jewish attorneys and three other non-Jewish attorneys (in addition to the Jamaican attorney. That kind of mixture, considered combustible in Europe, is routine in the States. Quote Free speech: "You can say what you want, but I don't have to lend you my megaphone."
