I don't think that it's ever time to stop talking about it.

And I understand the sister's sentiments. Knowing how to deal with someone who wears their hatred on their sleeves, is less stressful than the subterfuge type hatred, in which you are never really quite sure how to deal with it.

I only have hope that we work this out, and that it gets better to a point where they, the racist, will no longer be considered polite company.
