For Real proudandloudfnm! It SHOULD be about equality for all. The politicians made this a black thing from time and made most of the people from back then to now think its strictly a black thing and that's how they end up celebrating it. They get sidetrack into all kind of other color issues in life which this lady point to some of them. Its a slippery slope from the politicians influence to the people on the street and average Joe and Jane. Corrupt politicians lead to corrupt people lead to corrupt politicians and the cycle go on. Same cycle for racial issues in this country. Sad reality but very true.
