In no way did I intend to threaten anything. I am quite familiar with attitudes of white privilege and the harm that it has done to me and others, but at the same time I feel that the concept of hope opens to me the possibility that people can change and that where we've been is not where we have to be going. I don't mean to attack you, Rhondacoca, or others and apologize for giving off that sense or attitude. The last thing we need right now is to generate negativity around our strong feelings, and I'm sorry to do so. Fair enough Michelle, forgive me for indulging some drama in my language and phrasing.
