I got less sleep last night than night before, Steve. Just wanna say how MUCH I appreciate You taking the time. You're right, I'd say, about what the bigger issue is. I still think a LOTTA that could be weeded out before Kindergarten, in integrated pre-school. Well, dunno about "lotta," come to think some more.

I didn't read carefully enough the first time. And now that I do, I wonder to what extent the "assigning positive and negative values to them" comes from school and how much from family/peer-life. Thinking on that some more, I dunno how much that matters. Tired.

When You say the majority of the people aren't racist? I'm trying to remember if You've said it in that Way in the 8 or 10 articles on Medium You have? Don't recall it, but You could have. The reason I'm harping on that point is that, as far as I know, You're the ONLY (and I mean first, last and ONLY) person I've heard make that point.

And I can't help but wonder why. I'm not WIDELY read, but reading fairly broadly I haven't come across that view. Or, at least, I don't THINK so. Not on Medium and even the SHADOW of that thought just WON'T appear anywhere close to social media or the MSM either one. Again, why? Are You fairly SURE most aren't racist? I never would-a GUESSED it. Not in a million light-years. So the last question is, have YOU ever heard such an idea was out their. I'm tired, but I just can't get OVER how RADICAL that thought would be.

ALL that to say... I can't TELL You how much I'm looking forward to Your next article, Steve. Here? Or on Medium? No matter to ME, as I check both daily anyway. Jes wonderin'. :) = 😊

As You can tell, I never actually read what I write before I post it. Bad habit. "in that Way in the 8 or 10 articles on Medium that *I read periodically*?"
