Bigotry
Bigots suck...and there are a lot of them in this country! Do me a favor bigots and go get an education....an open mind is very hard to achieve, it is proven in social psychology that it is much easier for our brains to think in prejudice ways and compartmentalize groups than to think outside the box...but in reality e...ach human being is quite complex..no matter their race, gender, culture, or class. --Thank you:)

C. Wright Mills, American Sociologist
"Neither the life of an individual nor the history of a society can be understood without understanding both."
"The first lesson of modern sociology is that the individual cannot understand his own experience or gauge his own fate without locating himself within the trends of his epoch and the life-chances of all the individuals of his social layer."
"Power is not of a man. Wealth does not center in the person of the wealthy. Celebrity is not inherent in any personality. To be celebrated, to be wealthy, to have power requires access to major institutions."
