Topic : 09/12 The N-Word Debate

 My name is Rachel. I was brought to the show to debate Mr. Mooney. I have to tell you that you are a smart young man and I am so glad you are our future. Please don't ever ever let anyone make you feel different. You will be the reason racism between whites and blacks gets better. Your attitude is great. It is the attitude I wish your elders carried but they don't so its up to you to make the difference. Thanks so much!

Thank you so much for saying so, you couldn't be more right. Thank you for handling this type of ingorance with grace and humour. I'd also like to thank you for not giving it a worthy response as if it were even worth arguing about. Kudos.

Dr.Phil  I am a loyal viewer of your and was very disturbed by your viewing of this show.  While you stood to the side and let some very militant blacks run rampant on your stage.  To view something this racially one sided at this time I find strangely unfortunate and I wonder about your reason.  Was there an attempt to make whites afraid of blacks.  If not than you failed because that is exactly what  you did.  You could have found reasonable blacks and whites to discuss this but instead you aired extreme militants.  This close to a historic election I wonder about your motives.  Your credibility took a direct hit with this one.  Remove me from your list I am no longer a viewer.

ditto ROFLOL, and i like to add, another  SMALL factor of slavery...rape...i know its shameful and is probably--for that reason--left out of most folks' take on slavery, but , hey it happened...over and over and over definitely not enough time to "let it go" as some folk put it.

but...anyhoo..that post was funny...lol "best thing that could ever happen to anyone"...lol

Whites were auctioned on the block with children sold and separated from their parents and wives sold and separated from their husbands. Free Black property owners strutted the streets of northern and southern American cities while White slaves were worked to death in the sugar mills of Barbados and Jamaica and the plantations of Virginia.

The Establishment has created the misnomer of “indentured servitude” to explain away and minimize the fact of White slavery. But bound Whites in early America called themselves slaves. Nine-tenths of the White slavery in America was conducted without indentures of any kind but according to the so-called “custom of the country,” as it was known, which was lifetime slavery administered by the White slave merchants themselves.

In George Sandy's laws for Virginia, Whites were enslaved “forever.” The service of Whites bound to Berkeley’s Hundred was deemed “perpetual.”

I challenge any researcher to study 17th century colonial America, sifting the documents, the jargon and the statutes on both sides of the Atlantic and one will discover that White slavery was a far more extensive operation than Black enslavement. It is when we come to the 18th century that one begins to encounter more “servitude” on the basis of a contract of indenture. But even in that period there was kidnapping of Anglo-Saxons into slavery as well as convict slavery.

[…]

Before British slavers traveled to Africa’s western coast to buy Black slaves from African chieftains, they sold their own White working class kindred (”the surplus poor” as they were known) from the streets and towns of England, into slavery. Tens of thousands of these White slaves were kidnapped children. In fact the very origin of the word kidnapped is kid-nabbed, the stealing of White children for enslavement.

   Do we not have one common goal,PEACE.Don't we want our children not have hate in there hearts?Like one Great man once said"Can't We All Just Get Along?"

This was my thought exactly, i will no longer be a viewer if he doesnt make matters to CORRECT what took place friday.  Thank you, I wondered if i was the only one who felt this way
