November 25, 2011Dear Sir,Thank you for publishing my very long letter. I have been challenged, whether, in the interest of comprehension, I can say it in fewer words. With your indulgence:1. The continuing racial divide maintains an enormous economic disparity between the black and white communities.2. Unless “integrated” blacks, and those who are doing very well for themselves, acknowledge, and address, this disparity by the introduction of a black affirmative action policy, the conditions in the black community can only grow worse with increased violence.3. Eventually, and inevitably, there will be deterioration in the entire society, it will impact the white community as well as the black community.DR EVA N HODGSONHamilton Parish
