Milt, you nailed it there.
Eurocentric thinking discounted the wisdom of First Nations cultures, prohibited any vestage of African culture (apart from the Blues), and even marginalized Mediterranean culture. Throw in Central and South American cultures, Middle Eastern and Far Eastern cultures and some folks heads are likely to explode.
The problem with expecting everyone to be like you is that you aren't perfect. No one is. Until we get our prejudiced heads around that fact, we will not be able to move ahead.
Nothing is like it used to be and you know something? That's the way it always has been.
