I thought this was a thought-provoking article... although I guess the big question to this particular uneducated person (me) is, just who is Shelby Steele?
Perhaps this article has already circulated throughout your domestic media, but I thought it was interesting to post.
Although, the subject matter is rather inflammatory, so I don''t expect there will be too lively a discussion!
I am interested in this kinds of issues, partly because my sister-in-law is of Aboriginal descent, and so, of course, are my niece and nephew.
As an individual, our perceived place in the world is such an important part of our overall life experience...
Obama''s election - well, even just his solid popularity to date - really adds another interesting aspect to the ongoing debate amongst the multiracial population of the US, and, around the world.
