Re: Black Racists

1) Did we say they weren't?
2) Do you need to capitalize the first letter of every word?
3) Nothing is wrong with us, thanks, we just like intelligent meaningful discourse.

1) I like to start my own conversation
2) Yes
3) who doesnt?

If you want to start your own -discussion- there is a perfectly handy "new thread" functionality supported by this forum. If you want to post inside an existing discussion, the rules oblige you to contribute to the discussion at hand.

Re: Black Racists

Then you really have no choice, but to keep your thoughts to yourself then now do you? As for where this topic is going, Kilroy_X suggested that on the issue of welfare,"bad government economic policy and the continued manifestations of racism and race consciousness that are to blame." What do you guys think would be a good solution to this problem?

Re: Black Racists

SUMMARY: Why are there so many organizations who only support black people and no one else?

You have to remember, though it probably was before our lifetimes, the whole Civil Rights Movement and stuff like that was not long ago at all. Black people are still looked down upon in many places, and only time can erase ethnic grudges as such. There will probably be more organizations for black people than any others for numerous decades to come.

Re: Black Racists

We aren't discussing whether or not they exist, or even why they exist, so much as whether they should be -allowed- to exist, given that they assume a racism that is legally non-existant, and are in many ways fomenting racism on the part of blacks against whites.

Re: Black Racists

First of all, I think it is important to eliminate the biological concept of race.

Caucasians, Blacks, Latin Americans, Asians, and Native Americans are not subspecies. We are all the same species, we just have slightly different genetic traits, similar to how a person's height depends on their genes (assuming they receive proper nutrition). Tall people tend to have tall children.

However, race does exist culturally. And it is these cultural differences that should be acknowledged, and understood.

Re: Black Racists

Aside from culture and customs (some that may be because of what type of area or climate they live in, language, religion, etc.), I would agree that all biological concepts of race are bogus. Even if a statement about one's race is true, the only reason a person would think about saying such a thing is not to point out the fact, but simply to be discriminating against others (unless it's a statistic used for research without trying to discriminate). Even still, a statement about one's race would most likely not hold true for every single person of that group and would make it a bad steriotype. I mean think about how our world will be in the future. If the whole idea of Pangea is true, how would the human race (if it survives until then) be treating each other if every singly country was connected into one super continent like Pangea? We should be able to adjust our society to think more like one unified continent without race issues even before such an instance would occur if it did.

I've always maintained that the first aliens to visit Earth are going to have some difficulty understanding how we could possibly have concepts of race seperating peoples who are provably, undeniably one race. How unenlightened must that look to outside observers, that we can -prove- that we are all one race, and insist on categorising people "racially" as though we are somehow different species.

Even still, a statement about one's race would most likely not hold true for every single person of that group and would make it a bad steriotype.

All generalisations are false.

Re: Black Racists

I love that quote for its irony.

And as far as I'm concerned, I don't think anybody really thinks of humans being of different "races" (as in species). The term is just used to enumerate perceived or made-up differences between people with different biological traits, most often skin color.

If another term had been used from the start to describe those differences, it would still be used today, I think. It's just that "race" became the standard, so it's the word people use.

Re: Black Racists

*Sighs* That's like saying why United States is so-called 'the greatest country' yet we still have people who are poor, uneducated, and etc. In my case you is right, black people are not the only ones in poverty. There are hispanics (spell check please),whites, asians, and other groups. The reason why 'black people' are getting the help we need ((yes I'm black)) is because of our disperation (spell check please) and frequent begging that only get us programs or systems that help us out. To me I only see people as people, if you put away the culture, hertiage, race, and other nationalities. You only have earth people that live together and try to help each other out.

Also I'm not going to stop there. Let's look back on how White People treated the black people back in slavery before the Civil Rights Movement, that's when we didn't have no education nor the ability to read unless we tried to risk ourselves getting killed by the Master. Since then, black only have a poverty mindset because of the way we were treated. Then that's when Abraham Lincoln saw the destruction and depression that black people were going through and decided to end it. Only for him to be shot because of the movement he was trying to begin.

In short, black people were always in poverty because of slavery. We didn't choose to be idiots but then again when we try to be smart and enter into the real world, people with superiority tries to kill and crush them. I alone is the next victim but yet I won't give up too easily.

If you really start to think about it, tell the president to cut off all the section 8 and Food Stamp programs so the poverty can start waking up from the long 'nap' and start trying to live better or end up homeless.

Re: Black Racists

Yet this doesn't end the plot...

Before racism or slavery ever happened. Let's go back to when Catholics and Christians were debated back in England. To my knowledge, critism are welcome.

In England or is it Britain? Anyways, there was a strong debate over Catholics and Christians. The reason is that because people believed that the Church have too much power over the land and the King and Queen usually gain taxes from the offerings. This made the catholic church very much in power, the people who didn't like this 'method' decided to fight back. They couldn't fight back with bronzes because that's dealing with the King's and Queen's authority so they decided to fight with brains. They used the Bible as a guide thus creating the justice that not only brings clarity to the people but also challenges the church's power over their faith. This made the catholics almost powerless due to amount of people adapting the new faith. This faith enraged the King and wanted the new 'extremist' to be killed on the spot. That's why the extremist have to move into America so they can practice their faith.

This whole statement I typed might not be true but you do see that the concept of rebellion began when power tried to control everything. This relates to our society but into little branches. Racist people are like the catholics, they believe that they are superior to everyone else and look down upon the people. ((There's so much more to this topic)) While unracist people are like Christians, they don't believe someone is that powerful yet order should exist in order to control and maintain civilization.

This topic can become very broad because it's not only about the education, welfare, and other minor problems. It's about our understanding, we all think different yet compromising with one another makes the conversation more in-sync. We all have to start thinking more about what's the reason why racism exist and how can we prevent this solitude of ignorance from growing. Also I believe M-O-N-E-Y plays an important role in this discussion.

I'm sorry, what?

First of all, I hardly understood your story. Secondly, are you honestly suggesting that this is how America was colonized? If not, when was there a mass exodus of Catholics from Britain to America? Thirdly, where did you GET this information?

They used the Bible as a guide thus creating the justice that not only brings clarity to the people but also challenges the church's power over their faith.

Uh...what? Yes, people used a Catholic book against the Catholic church to undermine its power. Nevermind the fact that scripture is 100% in accordance with church and vice versa, yeah, they totally took down the Church.

Racist people are like the catholics, they believe that they are superior to everyone else and look down upon the people.

...

Do tell. No, really, I need a good laugh.

While unracist people are like Christians

Wait, whoa. Why the differentiation? Catholics are Christians.

, they don't believe someone is that powerful yet order should exist in order to control and maintain civilization.

Neither do Catholics.
