Stardate 20010906.2047 (On Screen): It may well be that the UN conference on Racism was doomed to fail. It's hard to see just how it was ever really able to accomplish anything important, given that every nation who actually routinely practices racism or who has ever done so in the past (even if they've stopped) will refuse to let their own case be discussed. Case in point: India. There is caste there of "untouchables" and there are about as many of them as there are people in the US total. Yet India simply says that it doesn't think it's anyone else's business.
Umm, what racism is anyone else's business? What shall we talk about? (discuss)
