That's a terrific, attention-grabbing title for this post. And the post itself was also terrific. I particularly liked your discussion of Thomas, whose motivations I confess I have never remotely understood.
Yeah, I completely understand what you're saying about love vs discrimination. I got a cooperative work-study position with the Forest Service when I was a Wildlife student many, many years ago. A fellow wildlifer, a man, said I had only gotten it because I was a woman. He asked me out on a date a few months later. So he obviously "liked" me; he just didn't think I could possibly be smart enough to be chosen for a job that he wanted.
Now...where is that flashlight I use to shine on my interior thoughts, feelings, and memories to see if I have played this same love/hold-em-back game myself, but regarding Race? I was never in a position to hire or promote anyone. But I was a college lecturer. Time to think.

We can deal with Love later. KEEP INSISTING!
The main difference between the AMA and the KKK (and by inference, the SCOTUS) is that the AMA uses fitted sheets.
