A few poorly phrased statements in my comment, and even though HN allows me to edit, none of my edits are showing. Some things I'd restate:

>Nevertheless, an African American who adopts the notion that he is incomplete from a cultural standpoint because of the history of slavery is relieving himself of the obligation of shaping his own identity.

And

>Being in a profession will likely affect your culture. Scientists, programmers, business people all have their own cultures that often set them apart from their fellow countrymen/race. Not hard to find two scientists from across the world who are more at ease with each other's company than with people in their own countries.

Your edits should be showing no problem. Can you try again? If it still doesn't work, email [e-mail] with your desired text and we'll put it in there, as well as try to track down the bug.

Rephrased statements are in the comment above yours. I think I had others but can't recall them.

May be a quirk of my browser...? I could edit the comment above yours just fine though.
