Race Relations/Expert Profile

Expertise

I can answer any question relating to race including, but not limited to: dating, marriage, hate groups, diversity training, and muticultural race relations issues. In fact, I encourage you to just ask your question if it pertains to race at all. If it falls outside my area of expertise I'll tell you. But generally, if it concerns race, I'll have a few ideas. :-)
