Blacks suffered from lacking a historical, cultural, ethnic, and racial moorings. They have no link or connection to anything about Africa. They were just caught in a situation they have no clue about. So they have no pride, no focal point around which to revive. Its the same thing that happened to native Americans who are literally wiped out. How can the dads be at home when they are not out in jail for minor drug offenses and once you have a record you are dooomed. The blacks don't have money to get a good lawyer to fight their case. They do a plea bargain not realizing that will screw them for life. A white jury gives them much harder punishment than the community service they dole out to whites. Blacks are stuck in a no win situation by the system. Jews are no where as badly screwed by the systemic injustice. |
I'm white and agree with what you've posted, but why are you using the outdated "Negro" term in some places and the currently used "black" in others? Clearly you're implying something with the distinction. Would you enlighten me? |

Well, I'm in the minority with you. I actually think people who consider themselves educated but still hang on to the idea that some aren't deserving of an education are in their own minority, or will be soon. |
We can talk about fair when you stop assuming that a black student of any income level only gets admitted because they're black. Can't shake the feeling you believe a poor white kid will always have better scores than a black kid from a wealthy home. |
Who says he doesn't already? Give me stats to prove the poor white never gets the "slot." And why is it always a black candidate taking a white candidate's place in these narratives? What about the white candidates with lower test scores who take the slots of white candidates with higher test scores? |
There are many perceptions and presumptions that were essentially forced upon black people. The term Negro embodies many of those negative stereotypical portrayals. The term black on the other hand was embraced and entirely redefined by blacks themselves and it emphasized a more positive portrayal of blacks thus combating those old stereotypes (see: Black Pride). In my comment I used the term Negro twice - the first time was to clarify (or implicate as you say) that I, personally, am not one of those stereotypical negative portrayals and the second time was to clarify (or implicate as you say) the ignorance and outdatedness of such stereotypical negative portrayals. |
to I'm not the PP, but if a policy discussion arguments are going to made with stereotypes commonly used 100 years ago, "negro" is a contemporary term appropriately used. |
Are you nuts? We are talking about CRIMES. Not things that were perfectly legal at the time (slavery). |

You sure project a lot. I never IF a poor white has better grades than a middle-class black. |
Ah, I see. That does make sense. Thanks. |
| Jews aren't the paragons of virtue when it comes to bastardry. Way more illegitimacy, single moms, etc in Jewish community compared to japan or South Korea for example |
Well there you have it. Slavery doesn't count as a crime committed by whites against blacks because it was "perfectly legal at the time".

Most AAs have slaveowner ancestry as well. This is something that many AAs seem to conveniently forget about whenever they can beat white people over the head about slavery. |
