How the hell do I know if it was the first time. I was speculating. She's a black person, not exactly a bed of roses in our white dominated society with vestiges of discimination still around. I was a bit dismayed when she said what she said, but I am trying to understand her perspective. Improving race relations is a bumpy road. It doesn't help to throw your white perspective on it. Jeez, she feels pride in her country now. Maybe that's a big step for her. Look at it as progress, not as a friggin cancer.
