I am not going to stop being that because I am an official. Because when officials that are Black talk amongs each other, we do tend to address issues and concerns that we might not have with fellow white officials. That part is very true. And if that scares people or bothers people, then that is something they are going to just have to deal with.

Rut, it is interesting to note that Juulie (who I think is white and married to a black man) never capitalized black or white, but you stated "Black official" and "white official". Is this one of the things that you "do on purpose"? It appears to be a put down.
