By PIERRE THOMAS and JASON RYAN
Feb. 18, 2009

The United States is "a nation of cowards" when it comes to race relations, the country's newly minted attorney general said today.
Eric Holder says we have been "a nation of cowards" in terms of race relations.

In remarks made during a speech to honor Black History Month, Eric Holder said the country remains "voluntarily socially segregated," making head-turning comments that could spark fierce dialogue and the ire of some conservatives.

racism again

you know I'm really not liking all this racism talk. It's like they are trying to stir something up. Ever since this whole election debacle first got started and it just doesn't stop, they always drag it out and make racist comments. It's seems like if the immigration, the gay, the abortion, or whatever they dream up, doesn't divide us, they will find something to stir the pot. These constant race baiting remarks are getting very annoying.

I make it an opportunity to talk to everyone

about the divisions caused by racism and sexual preference. I explain to them if you don't fight for individual rights, you will have no right to fight for anything else. I explain that the collective mindset perpetrates racism. the very thing they stand against they create. You wouldn't believe how powerful a statement this is.

Excellent.

I must remember the simple brevity of your statements on the days my patience wears thin. It will save me a lot of frustration.
