Request for Diversity/Interracial Forum

YES

Hi Everyone,

Please keep leaving suggestions and votes here. A lot goes in to creating a new node, not the least of which is being able to program the wire to be specific enough without too much redundancy with existing nodes. As an example, a "Wine" node better serves the subject than a separate "Zinfandel" and "Merlot" node because the news is parsed so specifically that the volume of stories becomes too sparce. That said, we are always looking here to see what the demand is for certain topics, and if we can make them work, we add them. Keep firing away!

That's all very good, except I don't need a date. I have enough problems. I just want to be able to discuss politics, philosophy and social problems with honest opinions from all sector's of the American melting pot, the pot that seems ever so hard to melt.

Melting pot...I've always disliked that term. Why should we all 'melt' and become one giant, indistinct, amorphous blob?

America is more like a gumbo or stew. Each 'culture' gets to remain distinct and a thing unto itself...yet adds to the overall 'flavor' of the whole.

i agree

[white guy]

Diversity is only good from a distance. Real far distance.
Up close and personal, its not too good.

[White guy]

All Blacks voteing yes? How is this new? It's just an extension of the AA forum. I vote NO.

[Concerned]

The names of those who voted "Yes" are mostly blacks who post anti white remarks. A new Forum will just be more of the same. Who will that help?.
