I suspect that many countries have 'us vs them' struggles in their past. Surely the US is not unique in this regard?

- mhurron 13y agoAnd the US is not unique in its xenophobia either.
- kevingadd 13y agoSure, but we have them right now, not just in our past, which is the real problem. Look at Arizona's behavior towards minorities, for example, or stop-and-frisk in NY, or the severe disadvantages African American children grow up under in places like Oakland. Xenophobia is still a very real part of american culture, just like sexism - even if things are better than they were a hundred years ago. It's a long, difficult uphill climb.
