I've considered moving from the U.S. on a few occasions; however, I believe it's better for me to stay here to do what I can to make a positive difference. I'm certainly going to vote, advocate, etc. as best I can. Thank you for your encouraging words.

Re: Racism: I think the concept of different "races" is erroneous. Certainly there are different ethnicities; however, we're one species. It's also clear that individual differences are more significant than any so-called (and I think, suspect) differences purportedly measured between groups of different ethnicities. (That is to say, I think all the studies I've seen measuring such differences are flawed.)
