20. some people don't understand the difference between racial and racist.

First, most white people will have no clue what you are talking about, so discussion on this topic will make them uncomfortable for NOT KNOWING and thereby label it racist.

Many discussions about race around DU get sunk by the false idea to discuss race is somehow racist in and of itself.

Micheal Jackson seemed to want to get as far away from black as possible, by any means possible, though. He spent a fortune trying to create the childhood he never had. It really makes want to know what Joe Jackson did to him. That is the mystery to me.
