This is an example of how society effects your thinking:
If you are brought up in, say, Africa then you know that blacks generally do blue collar work and whites generally do white collared work. That is how it is.
If you are brought up in, say, America then you know that you can't call them 'black' or '******', that you have to treat them fairly, ect, ect. That is how things are.
Huh? Why are you bringing this strange, poorly-informed, and very racist sounding comparison into this thread?
