Quote From: john5544i am so sick of watching my language so as NOT to offend the africans...NOTE I DON'T say african -americans...i also dont say, white americans or mexican american or italian americans...how dare they try to take the name american ....that designation should be saved for NATIVE AMERICAN.. as for the n-word, i usually do not use it, but, NO AFRICAN will tell me i can not say any word , because THEY are racists. al sharpton, jesse jackson are the BIGGEST RACISTS of all...just like MALCOM X..and martin luther king jr. i have not seen the gentleman you are having on ( i do not have his name in front of me) but i know i've seen him on a couple of programs seems like a good person. but, lets wait and see..a private conversation should stay between the two individuals..should dog have used the n-word thats up to him and his concience..
This is in semi support of what you are saying. I should let you know now that I am a black American woman. I do think racism is a huge issues on both parts. Black people have their racist comments too and it aggravates me to all heck. I just want you to know that you cannot categorize any people to any particular lock. Just because I am black doesnt mean I agree with NAACP or United Negroe College fund. I think there are poor white people that may need help too so those funds should go to anyone who needs it. Thats where the Black racism comes in. I know Black people think that because white people have so much that they need to look out for their own but its still a form a racism. You can't fight fire with fire. Black supremacy is very much alive in our country. They think they are helping the black community by raising funds for just minorities but it is separating us even more because we haven't embraced all peoople to join in to get an education. That has always really bothered me because I have a white friend who could not get into college because she couldnt pay for it and couldnt get any assistance. Her parents made alot of money but though they weren't going to pay for it. Any how you need to understand that not everyone thinks the same as you have made us to think. And you need to get yourself out there more so you can see that its a whole world out there that you don't know about not just what the media portrays. I truly wish you the best in your life.
I think the main sentence to be heard today is that "it starts at home" we have to raise our children to respect one another and make the right decisions and like TD Jakes says of course we won't get to every child but we can make a change in our society that matters.
