I don't even know what to say to that statement of there is no racism....to each his/her own if they really believe that |
To comment on this debate that the 2 posters who are going at it about black going threw more to get into positions of power then a white person....
From my point of view ..to be dead-honest that's the way its viewed in our communities....it was always if you wanna be real successful you gotta work your ass off (either that or kiss ass ) .nothing was handed on a silver platter. Do I think every single black person in middle class or upper class worked crazy hard to get there? No I'm sure its a few exceptions but 95% of the time you have to slave to live good being black in america..(not saying its not whites who have to/had to work just as hard I'm sure its some whites who had to work harder then some blacks in the corporate world)..again that's just me saying from how we are schooled in life |
Yes I have been on the receiving end of racism. It was annoying but that is all. I will never shop at another Victorias secret. But yes it happens. So what. |
racism = white supremacy. |
I personally remember the day before the million man march and how a bunch of my white colleagues said they were going to tell their daughters to stay home that day. Amazing the things white people will say when there are no people of color around. I asked them what they meant they said they thought the men would try to rape their daughters. True story and so racist. My jaw hit the floor my stomach turned. |
I believe this as well Signed old black woman |
Why? I'm the pp you quoted. I would not think twice about someone telling me that they're Jewish. I would be offended if someone kept that from my because I'm German. It just applys that you still think all German are still nazis. |
I didn't feel odd starting out but started to feel odd when people treated me weird and teachers graded me unfairly. I was raised very open minded and tolerant so that threw me off a bit. |
You know what they say about people who assume right?....yep...they make complete asses of they self every time...100% real..now stop "trolling"( as you lames call it)& get back to this topic discussion ![]() |
REALLY!? ![]() I too envision a world where people of all backgrounds don't experience racism. However,racism is universal and every ethnic group, culture, race, and creed have experienced some form of racism. |
Must be a heaping helping from Marion Barry's private crack stash -- along with some of the mayor-for-life's racism. |
Isn't Bowie State in PG? |
[quote=youngblackdude]Speaking about outside.has it been situations where you personally have been in racist situations .so much focus on us I'm wondering what people from other races situations was like .[/quote]
Can you rephrase in an intelligible way? |
This thread looks like it ran its course, but then was revived by posts that haven't added significantly to the conversation. It's probably better to let it return to it's earlier obscurity.
