The thing about dialogues of 'civilizing natives' is - what right have you got to tell these people to do if you're not better than them? That's sometimes the way they look at it.

I live in a county were they re-enact the "Battle of Ebenezer Creek". Where Sons of the Confederacy dress up as rebels and pretend to chase off Union soldiers ( in some years they are in black face) who have come to rape their women. The actual historical event is the Betrayal / Massacre of Ebenezer creek. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebenezer_Creek

I run into S. Africans more racist than that.

Yeah give it a few years we (Americans) could be worse. We do have a whip who spoke at racist conventions and called himself "David Duke without the Baggage". Ugly things are coming.

Boil whatever it is then just add sugar and yeast. That's seriously like 95% of the country wine recipes.

I do right now!

The thing is that people tend to hate their neighbors and then they generalize those behaviors to the race at large. For instance my neighbors fix cars at all hours of the day and night and slam doors and throw trash in my yard but because I am a wise evolved progressive I don't think that that's what all Hispanic people do.
