naj7488: "You may have been trying to do that, but that’s not how it’s coming off to me… It just seems like you are hell-bent on denying that the incident was racist, that kids can already form opinions about different racial groups, that people of different racial groups have trouble telling other races apart. And anyone who comments on any of these things is making a “generalization.”

I never say that negative things don’t exist, just that you can’t apply theories and studies with total abandon and faith to individuals. It doesn’t work, and it is wrong. Theories and studies can be useful and helpful tools, but they become dangerous when misused.

As far as me accusing others on this thread of over generalization, I stand by every incidence. Yes, it is true. The amount of over generalization on this thread shocked me many times.
