all of my white freinds have either been in prison and/or been living in homeless shelters, in both of these areas the black people actually outnumber white people even though the total amount of black people in this country is only 14%, when i'm talking to somebody that i've never met before, it's usually a freind of someone i already know really well, so out of all the people i've "met" (your word) in the last few years, more of them have been black than white.
i'm not saying the black culture is all about killing people with disabilities, i'm saying that the black culture is all about killing and the people with asperger's would get killed pretty quick because one of the primary symptoms of asperger's syndrome is accidentally pissing off people
i'm not saying ALL black people are part of the gangster culture, obviously Opra, Tyra, Denzell etc etc are not ghettoville gangster thugs, but those people are really just the exception that proves the rule, i'm gonna say that, within america MOST of the black people are part of the gang culture
Mate, if you're meeting people in prison, then you're likely to believe that most black people indeed are into gangster culture.
he played basket ball while he was in law school if he'd thought he was totally black, he'd have ended up playing pro ball, if he thought he was totally white he'd of ended up being a lawyer, i honestly believe that if he hadn't gone through the pychological trauma of being mixed, there's no way in hell he would have ended up running for president
I prefer to take another view of things. If he was a member of the underclass (black or white) he would be more likely to doubt his chances an intellectual abilities, and instead choose to try out his physical abilities by attempting to go pro
before Martin Luther King,
the half-breeds were raised as blacks because the white people saw the half-breeds as merely half-white and they were raised as black because they were considered inferior to the white people
but
after Malcolm X
the half-breeds are raised as blacks because the blacks now see themselves as superior to the whites, so the half-breeds are raised with black grandparents, black aunts uncles cousins, where the fact that the kid is half-white is this dirty little secret thing that nobody talks about, i personally know a lot of mixed kids that raised as black, thought they were a high yellow, and didn't even know they were half-white untill after gettig out of highschool, to those people, blacks are superior to whites and finding out they were half white was something that created emotional problems
Here you have captured a trend, but totally missed the driving force. Before Malcom and Martin, black people felt they were inferior. The neo-black movement originally was supposed to change that feeling, to make black people proud of themselves (remember the whole "black power, black is beautiful" slogans of the 60s?). Before then, the mixed race kid hated is black ancestry and wished he was totally white. After that time however, depending on who he grew up with and how he was treated, he was equally likely to hate his white ancestry as his black. Sure the teaching was that black was superior to white, but this teaching was a reaction to the supremacist oppression of the time.
okay
imaging a "pimp" getting his "bitch" pregnant, that's what i meant when i was talking about black people being different parents than white people
if a black doctor had kids with a black lawyer, i'm sure their family would look vaguely similar to "The Cosby Show"
Fair enough. I understand this. I however consider these pimps to be the vilest members of contemporary black american society, how come they speak for all black people? How come they are used as a measurement for black community and families?
if you mean that black people should think like white people, then yeah i agree with you here
While this statement may capture the spirit behind what I said/implied, the words say something totally different. I don't act white. I don't want blacks to act white. I want everyone to be civil to each other and reasonable. "Civilised" if you wish. Not think like white people, that again implies that white thinking is good, while black thinking is bad. Which we all know is not true.
yes i'm aware of the Italian Mafia, the Russian Mafia, the Yakuza etc etc
but the blacks ADVERTISE their "urban" culture on MTV and BET and countless magazines, websites, night clubs that don't let in white people etc etc
The Godfather movies. Bars and restaurants where black people had to go in at the back. Buses where black people had to give up their seats for white people etc etc.
i'm NOT saying that every single black person in america is violent, what i'm saing is that the non-violent black americans are severely outnumbered by the hyper violent black gang members, pimps, and black druglords
Again not true. However, tell me - what is more visible? What makes better news? What gets better audiences? The black boy who last year was joint top of his MBA class at havard, or the junkie who "smoked" two guys on the street because they looked at him the wrong way? There are far more normal, everyday black people going around trying to make ends meet. Crime is an unreasonably high %age in the black community, but not 50%, no way
yeah
the racism against the irish actually created america's first "gangs"
violent white people are just as bad as the violent black people, there are ghettoville places in america where a white guy will get shot just for being white, and red-neck-hickville places wherea black guy will get shot just for being black, the only difference is that the gangster will use a handgun, the redneck will use a deer hunting rifle, i dislike the NeoNazis, and white "bikers" just as much as the ghettoville thugs
if all the blacks miraculously disapeared, there'd still be white rapists, white serial killers but i still think there'd be a measurably higher percentace of non-vilent crime, like identity theft, grandscale fraud, and drugdealing that doesn't involve death when you make a sale, and white supremecy groups would disapear without any non-whites
if blacks had been integrated into mainstream society after the civil war, the great wave of interacial breeding would have happened in the 1860's instead of the 1960's
It depends. If these irish were easily identifiable, say they ALL had like violently red hair and blue lips. Then they had a nice glass ceiling slammed over their heads professionally, so however hard and long they worked, they couldn't even get junior management positions. Add to this sub-standard education in their communities, and frequent lynchings, rapes, hangings without any hope of justice. You never know, you just might end up with a generation of suicidal kids with no respect for life, living fast and dying young, and not giving a damn about who went down during their quest to get past the suffering "by any means necessary".
When my father finished his PhD, he was unable to get work. Despite indeed having one of the best grades in his graduation class. He couldn't even get work as a biology teacher - the schools boards kept telling him to "come back next year". He had a wife and a kid (not me) to feed, so he went to work as a busboy. For two years, he worked as a busboy, and managed to save enough money for a trip to the UK, where he got work as a Uni lab assistant. Now imagine this didn't happen, and we all were born in some ghetto, the parents were always at work, trying to pay bills, etc. How would he be able to convince me that education does indeed pay when his PhD only got him a dodgy bus company job, while Lamont next door who dropped out of high school was breezing around with his escalade full of "hos"? This is my pain, this is my battle. This is why I donate 4 hours weekly to teach in inner city schools, and help out in the community clubs. Their class/background/experiences/upbringing is not mine, but their face is mine.
