I have heard and read from more than a few blacks in prominent positions on tv, politics, and elsewhere that every aspect of American life is governed by race.
Yes, old, white Mrs.Smith tending her garden in Minot, N.D. is consumed by thoughts of race and how to do evil things to black people as she grows her vegetables and flowers.
How are you supposed to reason with people who think that way? Simple answer: you can't. They believe they're being oppressed by Evil Whitey, and no amount of facts are going to dissuade them from that belief.
