African American

When I read it, it hit home. Hard. Back then, very few blacks would open up to me so it was a revelation to see how it really was, aside from the news and the rhetoric.

We are a tribal species, and the tribe can be race, religion, language, heritage, or you name it. But there is always a tribe and the necessity to watch for threats to it. This woman got an inside look at the rival tribe, and it doesn't sound like she was surprised-- just disappointed and pretty much resigned to it.
