By which, do you mean that people from the "dominant culture" (i.e., whites) have nothing to contribute to such a discussion, or that we (since I belong to that category) have a habit of squelching such discussion?

I for one would like there to be an extended discussion on this important subject; I'm all ears. I not only agree with everything in your post, but I have heard it many times, for quite a few years. Is there anything new to be said on the subject? That's what I'd like to see.
