01/12 Racism Experiment

Quote From: joanna1101

I love the fact that Dr. Phil asked what exactly acting white means. She said that her daughter wont stand up for herself. Later Dr. Phil said that she's not racist, she just wants her daughter to "embrace her culture".  

So white people dont stand up for themselves while black people do. 

This is exactly the stereotype people create and then for Dr. Phil to say its not racist is just insane. Why is is not racist? It's a generalized statement against black people. So I've got a big mouth and I'll tell you like it is (sometimes harsher than Dr. Phil) 

Am I acting black. 

  

This acting black or white is just stupid and a waste of time. 

 (I wish I didn't have to quote the ENTIRE message...)

I agree about "acting" a certain ethnicity. What does that even mean? It just feeds the prejudicial stereotypes that we all must work to erradicate!!
