Uh, what it is also true is that we have lived as minorities in this country since its inception, Don, and we have in many instances, especially those of us who are from the south.

had circumstances where we are always the only one of something, the only Black person, the only woman, the only Black woman, the only Black man.

I am from Texas.

I can count easier

the number of circumstances in school where I was not the only Black person in class or not the only Black person in the event.

I went to a private undergraduate institution, St.

Mary's University.

And it needs to be said, I've had any number of countless hundreds of instances where I've been the only, and I am still here to tell the story about it.

My white friends did not kill me.

And so it's not every time we see a lone black person with white people that they are not safe, but it is not every time that they are.

And so it really...

And the opposite is also true.

White people who grew up around no black people.
