Every one was making a big deal because this Obama is a black man. First off, where I'm from, people come in 35 distinct shades. We have blue people and yellow people and even bright pink people (it's because of the algae they eat).
So why on a planet that has comparably few shades of people, do they make such a big deal out of a person of shade getting a job that was held by people of a different shade? Are people here on Earth that hung up on people's differences?
Once I heard of a twin who's sibling had died during the carrying. This twin was two distinct shades that covered almost half and half of his body. He was a nice shade of pink on one half and a darker shade of brown on the other. He wasn't looked down on nor was he looked up to. He was just there. He had the same opportunities as everyone else.
In this world a person like that probably wouldn't have made it through middle school.
This world would be a lot better if everyone stopped noticing how everyone looks and started noticing how everyone is.
