    I think backfiring would be the wrong phrasing, Caucasian people after all statistically get the best outcome in pretty much every demographic of life IIRC.

    For instance i remember as a youngster feeling like life was tough in the USA–until i visited Africa. I don’t think its right though to for instance blame current people from England for the occupation of say, India, but I also don’t think right for them to claim their country hasn’t somehow benefited from it and through that, they themselves.

    I am optimistic about the future though. I am biracial and I feel as mobility/travel/the acceptance of others has grown eventually we will all be one–and yes I realize how sappy that is.
