Re: racism?

Racism? Nope. Some folks want to be able to support minority owned businesses.
I suppose you could ask that the supermarket post everything that is white owned if it makes you feel better.

Huh, Goya foods is not a minority owned business?

Yes, it certainly would make it about religion.

Isn't the goal for everyone to be treated the same regardless of race?

If you consider someone from Europe a minority, I guess so.

Ah, race is what makes a black person a minority in the race category.
