Re: Isn't there a racist thing with Dixie?
in reply to a message by Nanaea
I am not all black. Just a regular good ol' American Heinz 57. My ancestry is : American Indian (I hold a tribal card as do my children), Irish, Scottish, Black, German, French, and I am sure many other nationalities. I don't consider myself anything but American. I loathe people who can only think of race. They cause many more problems than they fix. Things happened long ago that were awful. The best we can do as a people is learn from them and not try to profit from them or use them as an excuse. I happened to like the flag but all are entitled to their opinion. I live in Oklahoma but am a PROUD Texan born and raised in East Texas an hour North of Houston. The only people I am prejudiced against is trash and I don't care what color they are. I do love the name Dixie though. It is very unusual and very feminine and reminds me of the song that I love to sing.

Yep, cooly expressed. :)
