Point is: why is everyone still discussing colour (like a rare species of penguins has been saved from extinction) instead of the pragmatic issues that lie ahead in national and in an international scale for your country? The worth of black people communities has been proved much earlier in US history: through music, literature, arts, etc... Politics does not have a colour.
