Wow.........looks like I stirred up a hornets nest by using the term "chip on the shoulder"

We are moving through the age of racism into the age of equality in race,religion,colour and sexuality but I agree we still have a way to go.

But racism is a two way thing, if non black people see a black person and actually see a person (with a slightly darker tone to their skin) then that's fine ,BUT the black person has to see a person (with slightly lighter blanched skin) also.

Not a closet colonial slave master intent on subjugating or oppressing that person. Black people especially young black people need to step up also and see that most people now don't give a fig about a person's skin colour.

The chip needs to come off the shoulder now, and all sides need to move on and not be offended when an innocent word is taken out of context and the user suddenly facing accusations of racism.

ridiculous really...........
