@James Lukan you don't sound like a Micronesian to me. Americans are okay to say things bluntly like you just did. That is one hundred percent unacceptable in the Micronesia that I grew up in. Especially if you're talking to a high-ranking official who is also of mature age.

"Upon Meeting Don L. Lee in a Dream" he comes towards me with lashless eyes always moving in the yellow of half-shadows from his mouth I know he has never made love to thin white boys in toilet stalls among the trees, the black trees women in robes stand watching, they begin to chant, stamping their feet in wooden cadences as they stretch their beaded arms to him moments slip by like worms seven years ago, he begins; but I cut him off: "those years are gone-- what is there now?" he starts to cry; his eyeballs burst into flame, I can see caviar imbedded like buckshot between his teeth his hair falls out in clumps of burnt-out wire the music grows like branches in the wind I lie down, chuckling as the grass curls around me he can only stand, fists clenched, and weep tears of iodine, while the singers float away rustling on brown paper wings

I gotta add this. I hear the term """Jim Crow" mentioned very often, began about 10 years ago. I live in NY & NJ in my 70's and went to school mixed about 50/50. Sure I knew about separate water fountains & bathrooms etc., because that all came to a head in early 60's, but it should be understood that this Separation only existed in a few Southern States with a total of perhaps 25% of the population. IOW, it wasn't a FEDERAL Law. I get the feeling that younger people had this hammered into them, and lately we hear people wanting Segregation on a Bill in CA ???

I have been suspended from twitter now for 6 weeks, with no notification from them, no explanation and merely automated (useless) reply messages. As far as I can tell, the reason is that I shared this video. It was the last thing I tweeted the night before finding I was suspended. I could speculate some other things maybe, but they were all long-standing things. The suspension followed the sharing of this, presumably the algorithm reacting to a combination of words in the title that it doesn't like (misreads).

For some reason, I'm not feeling the way the interviewer is framing the questions... sounds like he has a white person's mentality. Mr. Wilkins seems to be wrestling with the fact that a lot of middle class blacks, were easily brainwashed into thinking about poor blacks, the same way racist whites did.

Thank You #RogerWilkins for putting him straight about that insensitive remark about so called *Stubborn Underclass* as if it's by choice. Now I see what happened to us... once a few of us were lucky enough to get more & better opportunities... then they looked back & the rest of us & blame us for our own oppression, instead of using their influence to help a little with policies & humanity laws... but they started using the same elite white people's talking points, against their own people. that's how we ended up with extremely wealthy & extremely poor people in the same family.
