I thought this was interesting...
I try to habitually chase after such things... but I don't always know if I'm successful.
I thought this would be a good discussion and how one could go about doing such things, when often even the things oriented towards minority power groups confirms stereotypes. e.g. African American men only like white women, African Americans only thing about slavery (those types of stereotypes). Also getting tired of the ghetto image, the Asian women are subservient, etc.
Also if you think it would work, or if education plus this would be necessary?
