People have the right to be seperate from one another. Love your neighbors, but choose your neighborhood. Take for example , the "white prom" and the "black prom" controversy a few years back in the mists of time. Both have a right to exist. The obvious thing to do would be to have no proms, or three proms. A black, a white, and a both. One could say go to the multi-racial prom then go to the white prom or black prom, or go to one all night, or go to all three. Race is real, but most of what is defined as a racial stereotype (which is rarely completely false) is a cultural construct. A white child raised in a black culture will have far more in common with black children raised in a black culture than a white child raised in a non-black culture.
