Response to Colorblindness

In response to America's Colorblindness, I think that we as a people are moving in the right direction toward equality. However, I only believe that this is occuring because the cultures are mixing and forming a new blended less distict culture. The United States is becoming less racist because they have to. What I mean by that statement is that people are becoming more accepting of other cultures and races because they have to accept the doctor who saved their life, or their sons wife, etc...Therefore, think the US is making giant strides forward in terms of acceptance of other races but acceptance is not what we need as a unified country we need equality.

The responce to Color Blindness I actually think that America is moving the opposite direction towards color blindness. I think that society doesnt see it because it has been so ingrained in our everyday actions that we don't notice it as much. I thik that America has not done anything to make a positive affect towards color blindness. I think American can and we always see the huge divide between races.
