Why post this list? Up to now, I've put the list at the end of related posts, letting it grow with each new post. Since I set up a list of posts dealing with Tolerance, Bigotry, Racism, Hatred: Real or Imagined today, I thought this would be a good time to do the same with posts on this cluster of topics.
