[QUOTE="Don Barclay, post: 916092, member: 12032"] What about this: using racist slurs like Funchess used should ALWAYS be called out, because that language is associated with racist belief and racist history; but it's OK for us to be patient, open, and forgiving with those who don't recognize it in the moment? Then maybe we educate each other and move toward a more improved understanding of each other without relying on stereotypes. Like, Maybe Funchess doesn't know what c---k means or has meant -- maybe he doesn't know much about Angel Island or the transcontinental railroad. That's OK, and we should all be open and patient with each other. That said, the rush in this thread by some (not you, sschind) to excuse or wave away racist slurs as something people should just have to endure smells pretty bad to me. [/QUOTE]
