It is not difficult to become confused between the terms 'Fact' and 'Truth".

37 of 55

To forget what you have been taught is the only way to 'Unlearn'. I have been amazed at some of the things that I thought were acceptable as a child.

Society & Lifestyle > Racism The concept of race
24 of 26

More true than many will admit. If you are the dominate colour or there abouts in your area, then yes you can generally look at the issue of race as a concept.
