[ - ] S/O destination weddings, DH is invited to an upcoming wedding where the couple will be wed on a cruise ship in port. We, and the other guests must embark on the ship to attend the wedding and then must disembark immediately following the ceremony. I'm so irritated that DH got us into this for someone I don't know, and he doesn't know that well. We'll be driving 4 hours to attend this wedding on a weekday morning. It seems like an awful lot to ask of your guests. 2 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

DH is an attendant in the wedding, so he has an active role. I have never met these people, but it is someone that DH once worked with. The bride requested that the wedding party where specific colored items, so I contacted her on FB for more information and she didn't respond. Normally, I would be doing everything possible to help organize DH (he has ADD), but in this case I'm now just along for the ride. Maybe they will have decent food at the rehearsal dinner.

[ - ] Many of you who were raised 8n the upper echelons of Manhattan probably didn't go to school with many blacks or people of color. I find that sad. I think one raised in such a polarized environment must have a skewed world view of poc. I am so glad that I went to a school that broke any racial illusions and allowed me to see so many different personality types of people alot of you might consider other. Don't you worry about your children getting a skewed view that's not in tpuch with reality, when they only see most of their own demographic in their public school? Some of these TT ps are nearly 80% one demographic. 17 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

I think you may be mistaken in assuming that going to school with blacks will make people believe in racial equality.

This. Also, there was a woman on the news this morning who had done both tests and gotten completely different and seemingly both inaccurate results from them. She was clearly African-American in appearance and have done a lot of genealogy research on her own, but one test came back as a 90% European and 10% Native American and the other came back with a mix of three or four different types of lineage which didn't make a lot of sense according to her research and family background. So I question the accuracy of the tests, the Integrity of how they process them, and I have a lot of concern about how this information could be stored and used against you in the future.
