An interesting discussion list about issues of race as they relate to RPGs, both in game and around the table, is located here Thought some of you might be interested in reading/posting.

Hi Ben,

As an aside, any thoughts on the discussion/list thus far?

I think most of the discussion on the list is tremendous. I'm still a little unsure of my place in it as a white guy. I'm worried that I offended the moderator by talking about addressing issues regarding the American genocide in a game. I'm trying to think of how I can, or if I should, express that it is an important issue to me, too, and one I've done a lot of studying and thinking about, and have no intention of making light of. (Like many people, I have both sides of genocide in my background.)

So that's pretty much the state of things.
