I was zoned to the fact that when you told about your racial/cultural background, you actually had a reason to do so with your real life example. That is because I'm always dismayed when people seem to think that they are oblicated to make their racial status clear just to be able to state an oppinion on racism. I hated it when in womens' studies my oppinon was judged based on my gender. I hate the same thing regarding this issue.
But anyway, I agree with you about people making mistakes and that what you do when it's pointed out to you is the thing that matters.
