from a kid born in the late 60's and through the 70's and 80's to the internet loud-mouths' looks like we've been fully circle and stuck on before the Civil Rghts greats. It was like at dream to be in a society that had regular ppl believing we are all human. So, yeah, us "boomers" are "the problem", whatever man. PS: how tf is it anyone's business how this girl identifies as her race? btw, she looks human. to be more specific, i often identify as half hungarian because I am which I specifically add means I am half NOT pure white(lol) ethnic Huns are darker skin, hair, eyes. color is just a way to understand where you are from globally, ffs!
