Religion as a cover for racism. All these WHITE CONSERVATIVES(WC) warp Christianity to advance their racist views. When these WC say that they want to "return America to its glory days", they mean they want to return the USA to a time when whites subjugate minorities and call their men, "boys".

I think maybe he (Mr. Robinson) should have worded it something like "Is mac 'n cheese a holiday tradition for black folks" (though I don't like to make distinguishments regarding the color of people's skin... my skin is sort of a light, peachy-cream color). I have met people who have all sorts of different food traditions for their holiday meals. The man I'm married to now, well, I had to get used to the fact that "his" family didn't like gravy on their mashed potatoes at their holiday meals... I still make it, but his side of the family doesn't eat any of it. I make what I've always made and he makes the things that he is used to eating on holidays that I haven't already made. My family has always loved macaroni 'n cheese, we just never had it on the holidays... always disappointed at family picnics or reunions though if someone didn't bring some... baked in the oven with extra cheese on top (and sometimes a hunk of cheese right in the middle)... mmm, yum!
