"WE" "The Culture" "US" The Black Movement

[illnillinois]

While it's important to take pride in your culture and history, I think that we SHOULD as a nation focus on the concept of one people with one common goal, which is to live and raise our children healthy and happy. This shouldn't be a race issue.

I agree with everyone one that has left their :twocents:
I also do think a subject, matter, problem or any other issue. Should be able to be discussed without "fearing" like its a "race" issuse and cant be talked about, Not to upset anyone..

One planet, one species, one goal.

It would be nice if we focused on what we have in common versus what our differences are.
I don't think the black community realizes they are setting our relationships back with all this black america pageant and black cacaus stuff. There will always be rascism on both sides. But I've always believed the rascists are just avery vocal very small minority. Besides it looks like most of the rascism is being directed at the hispanic community now.lol

Not trying to :beatdeadhorse:

What gets me is some of the commercials.
LIKE
The ones about the Inventions from "Black Minds" and a black mind is a terrible thing to waste
Isn't ANY MIND of ANY RACE, COLOR, CREED a terrible thing to waste.


And The commercial of the public bus where a crowd of people get on and then you have a black young male getting up and giving his seat to a black woman..

Can it not be A Hispanic male or female getting up for a Japanese person, or a ANY combination of races.

I can see that...people with a budget and an agenda to improve the attitude and mind set of black peeps are advancing their cause. It's really all god, ya know? You know that your just as good as them, but maybe there's no need to advance your people's cause. Hmm?

No disrespect given or taken. thanks,

The insult is (to me...) that the PC Police won't let Italian, Irish, Polish or any History Month go by without a political brandstand. EVERYONE is entitled to a History Month. If black (or blue, green) people want to celebrate and promote their culture, it's their dough. It's all Goood (extra OO for the missing ones).

it's sad the mojority of people will never think like this or even try to make a difference. the best we can do is question everything seeking the truth and do whatever we are capable of in life, and live a damn good one!

I'm against black people using the term African American, to describe themselves. Unless they're directly from Africa.


Why? Because they're fucking Americans, they were born here, their parents were born here, their grandparents were born here.


If that were the fucking case I'm going to have every "African American" call me a Sicilian, French, German, Polish, Danish, Norwegian, Bohemian, Spanish and Irish American.


They can suck my dick to be quite blunt.



Racial denominations just cause barriers and bullshit.

[maxsuperdanks]

If a black person ever says my people made their people slaves.


I'll be quite upset, because well. All of Europe, and black people, fucked my island of Sicily over more times than ANYONE ever got fucked.
