		<description><![CDATA[Generalizations. I fear tackling a subject so large because I have so many conflicting thoughts, but turning my head &#38; looking the other way doesn’t help either. Strangely, the topic arose because of James Watson’s racist comments – his generalizations about Africans. I was sharing with a friend how disheartening I felt it was to [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=kismetorious.wordpress.com&blog=472228&post=29&subd=kismetorious&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
