Quick question there, Nikki:
If the US has "never been a racist country" why did it take us 232 years to elect a non-white person as President? Why did it take a Constitutional amendment to allow non-white Americans to vote? Why did Congress have to pass laws telling white people to serve Black people in their stores, allow Black people to go to their schools, and allow Black people to live in their neighborhoods?
Why did we have to fight a war to stop people from owning people of a different race?
Why did it take a Constitutional amendment to allow non-white Americans to vote?
For that matter, why did it take a Constitutional amendment to consider Black Americans as citizens?
