Is it unreasonable for ppl that have been enslaved, suffered under jim crow & still suffer to this very day to not see things exactly like others in this society...???

Do Armenian TUrks see Turkish history the same as most of the "other" Turkish citizens???

Do the Mayan Mexicans or the Mayan Guatemalans see history the same as the "other" citizens in those countries?? Tibetans & Hans?? Non-Muslims in Muslim states???
Exactly, this is almost like the right brain/left brain test that was on this site for a long time. People see and hear things with everything they have experienced as a navigator to their opinions.
