This global effort wasn't a socialist, political or other; only that 
people are always dividing people into groups and until people stop 
seeing people as black, white, Hispanic, etc will people will never see 
beyond color. Simple as that. It is a fault of our society. I personally 
think we should drop race categories on every application regardless of 
what it is for.
