    Fair enough. I grew up in an area with a heavy African, Italian, Irish and Polish immigrant population. So I literally had front row seats to that contention between the words that I couldn’t understand how they didn’t see the commonality in the group that set these conditions against them.

    But words/language is such a complicated tool and I may not always be speaking to a global generalized audience.
