Imagine my discuss with all the negative comments about Blacks making a darkroom depressing to the other workers. Ted even went so far as to say that "White is beautiful", is that to imply that black is not. Ted even blamed his self inflicted injuries, on Blacks in the darkroom. Making the statment that blacks "degrade the quality of your work" is inexcusable. Maybe some of this talk is because of the middle calss snobbery customarily associated with Leicas, Mont Blanc pens, and foreign cars. This thinly veiled excuse to place more blame for societies ills on the black populace has to stop. This type of thing is carried on everywhere, I.E. why are black olives always in cans but, green olives in jars. IF the birds are black they are Pigeons but, if they are white they are Doves. This has to stop. :) The Black Militant formerly Known as John P.S. just in case somebody missed it "THIS IS A JOKE"
