RE: excuse the interruption - Enough already

Exactly how one equates classical music to the quartering of certain members of a European religious community or the original meaning "slag", has anything to do with a slight to segments of the population. Neither Porgy and Bess nor Carmen would be legitimate to Serinus based on the low brow location of these operas.

Bigotry is bigotry no matter how you try to slice it; whether it be overt or more passive. The harm that is fostered from such a narrow outlook hurts us all.

The irony is such a statement is made so close to the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington and MLK's famous speech. When will people like Serinus see people for the content of their character and not the color of their skin.
