Much like my women’s church club meeting. Grousing about taxes when somehow 3 women brought Blacks into it! The rest of us sat like dummies while they blathered how easy Blacks have it with jobs, housing, education, etc,. until a voice quietly said, ‘But aren’t you glad you’re not Black’?! Silence!
