I have dealt with various types of bigotry first hand in many painful ways.
My wife and I have adopted and are raising two children who are of mixed race. We didn't do that so we could win PTA awards at Parent of the Year Banquets.... As a matter of fact i like to make jokes about the fact that my wife and i are crazy... we had one foot out the door to a life of cruising the caribbean and instead got pulled right back into dirty diapers and helping with homework / little league practices etc.

Throughout this process i have had old friends turn their back on me because i chose to bring a mixed child into my house. I have seen people treat me as a second class citizen because the child in my grocery cart is mixed.
