RE: Adventure Reading #7: "Light in August" on Cerro San Cristobal with a New Dog Friend
While the U.S. is often criticized for it's racism, I have noticed that casual racism (and sometimes not so casual) was also rampant in the European cities that I visited. Sometimes I think that the US is far more reflective of their prejudices... but I'm not sure. I'll have to do some more traveling to find out!
In other circles, the US is also criticized for being overly politically correct, which probably means we have a lot more conversations about the meaning of prejudice. It is really hard to get a gauge on these subjects, even in my own country! More travel can't hurt, haha.
