I am glad that we got a

I am glad that we got a chance to talk about that article in the New York Times.  I feel that if we didn't discuss the article at lenght like we did, I propably woud have dismissed a lot of the assumptions made about race in the article.  And I feel that a lot of other people read the article and believed some of the notions made in the article.  This has taught to not always rely on others for our information because it is not always the whoke truth.  We, as individuals have to take it upon us to educate ourselves, and to read actively.  I have basically learnd that "race" is a ridiculous word that should not exist, and its even worse that people are trying to have ways scientifically to reinforce this race concept.
