[quote=Anonymous][quote]1) I don't smile ( heffa you don't know me and I don't owe you my smile because it is my job to assuage YOUR discomfort, besides, I have cramps)

2) I need to stop making excuses ( it is not an excuse, I really do have cramps)

3) It is my job to stop so-called black on black violence. 
I guess that means your job is to stop white people from shooting up schools

4) Get educated - everyone in my family is college educated including my 96 yr old GM. My parents have grad degrees, so what is the problem...you need to borrow a degree?

5) I need to Stop calling out racism...I call it like I see it and I do not recall the last time I called it in my own life.
This means your talking about more than I am

6) Stop being angry . 
Yes I am pissed because you don't want to let me be responsible for me and mine, you want me to account for the millions of other black folk I have and never will meet. 
Are you responsible for Miley Cyrus?

1.  Yet, if white people AA's automatically assume they are racist.

2. Whites aren't allowed to have bad days or have cramps or we are racist.

3.  It is everyone's job to stop violence.  You don't want to be held accountable for black on black violence, don't be so quick jump on white violence.

4.  Everyone in your family is educated including  your 96 year old grandma and your parents with their grad degrees.  Don't you dare cry "white privilege".

5.  You have never blamed anything on racism or called anyone a racist?  Good for you.  It must be because you are privileged and educated.  Read a newspaper or an op piece and you will see that whites are accused of racism all of the fucking time, whether we are guilty or not.  We are presumed guilty because of the color of our skin.

6.  You are pissed?  You don't want to be responsible for the behavior of other AA's.  Hell, whites don't want to be held responsible for the actions of other whites that they have never met, but we are and it doesn't stop there.  We are held responsible for the actions of white slaveholders generations ago.  It doesn't matter that neither we or our ancestors owned slaves.  We are all held responsible and yes, we are pissed, too.

There are two sides to every story.
