Excellent post. We the PWP can be inadvertant jerks and (get this) it's not usually deliberate. So help us help ourselves to be better people. Because many of us really want to be. And that's one thing that RaceFail/whatever the heck you want to call it has brought to the attention of a lot of writers: the "default white" perspective. Many who were clueless are thinking about it and trying to wrap their PWP brains around their blindnesses.
I'm very fortunate my G/L friends of old never slapped me for stupid nosey questions, either, so thank you for answering the silly/stupid questions that irritate the heck out of you, mouseme.
