The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Yes, I would roller skate. More than it is fun to skate as a recreational sport, today is a renewed symbol of supporting the rights of minorities. It is a peaceful way to express an opinion that says: everybody is equal, no matter the color of their skin or belief systems. And I support that.
If I like to learn more about the history of black skating I would go to historic sites on the internet, printed encyclopedias of African American heritage, or I would watch modern documentaries such as "United Skates."
Ad as I mentioned above, I would pursue this as a recreational sport and as a chance to contribute to Black social history. If it is in my hands to cooperate for a good cause and doing some exercise at the same time, I'm in.
