Black skin in the White House

Editor,

Black skin in the White House does not make 1.2 million black and Latino youth incarcerated in American prisons disappear. One Huxtable family living in Beverly Hills does not make the black and Latino hell-hole present in every American inner city disappear.

White people think that to perceive people of color as white people with a little darker skin makes us "beyond" racism in America, which is nonsense.
