America says it's trying to abolish racism. Yet there are still school, neighborhoods, church's ect only for white people and others for black people, and the government allows it. So how do they expect to get reed of racism in the states? If white kids are not allowed in black schools and vise versa? I mean shouldn’t all schools accept all kids and all neighborhoods accept all racial background? Does'nt all this give the impression to the youth of America that each racial background is different? Also how come there has never been a black U.S president? (If there has been one who was he and which year was he in power).

Why don't you fix all the social ills in your own country before you start worrying about the US? Oh, I forgot, you hate the United States, so why pass up a chance to parade our problems around.
No one's denying that we have social problems and that racism doesn't remain a problem in the US, but the fact is that things are improving. The Secretary of State of the United States is black. The head of the National Security Council is black. The Surgeon General of the United States is black. These are the people who work directly for the President. There are blacks in both houses of Congress.
And Surfacing, if you want to criticize the United States, get your facts straight. They aren't.
