I don't think the assumption should be that she knew everything. I just assumed she knew more than
you.
Either way, I don't think it should take a black person to point out a misconception about black people. I get just as pissed when people make mistakes about people of any race. This is one of the reasons why attitudes don't change as fast as they should. The "If you ain't insulting me, it ain't my problem" attitude should have been buried long ago. That attitude combined with knee-jerk "don't be so PC" responses to any type of criticism relating to race is the most frustrating thing to address in otherwise intelligent people today.
