What's stopping you from writing about it yourself?
You are the one who feels it's a problem, correct?

I'm not sure where you're finding the "misery" in
the article. Reply 27 from FluidJ in this very
thread find happiness and relief in the realization
presented in the article.
I'm a Black person, and I found the article productive.
She may have voiced something other Black people needed
to hear at this time.


But again:
Are you having trouble maintaining friendships
with Black people, specifically? What are the
"unique" issues you're running into with them?
