icon:  It's really difficult for me to respond to your post.  Sure, it's tempting to just say "hey, now we all need to come together"...you're right, that's a platitude and, given the kind of support from very racist elements in our country Mr. Trump both sought and received, it would be impossible to not be angered, very angered as a Black American with his victory.  Trump ran on a platform of repudiating all that President Obama represented.....and he won.  I had hoped President Obama's election represented a significant step toward a truly "post-racism" America.....boy, was I ever wrong.  With his election, millions of racists across America saw "license" to come out of the shadows and flaunt their racism, and they did.  That racism was not the only appeal of Trump, but, let's be frank here, it clearly was one of them.  

I'm hoping things can improve.....but, given the current climate in our country, I'm not optimistic. 

For what it's worth, you have my best wishes.......Gary
