What happens to people is a 2 way street. People that experience the uncle tom or acting white treatment may be doing just that and inciting the treatment. That doesnt excuse it but it does explain it. At some point there was a determination made that Black people were going to assume this and once you become a hammer everything looks like a nail.I recognize the irony in this.My wife said other blacks are like crabs trying to pull successful blacks down.
So ignorance is rampant in your household.
There's an old axiom that explains your small minded wife...'It takes one, to know one'
You should apologize for attacking a commenter's wife. How would you feel if someone attacked your husband?
How 'cute', you know I am a male. Do you have any more kindergarten tricks?
In response to your original comment about my "Small-minded Wife", my wife is black, and knows better than anyone what blacks have done to her all of her life. So she is one, and knows not just one, but quite a few.
Nuff Said.
I learned this when one of my mentors told me to smile when I make eye contact with people. I made people nervous because I always had a serious or even mean look as I was told later. Once I begin to smile at people I saw that most people simply respond to whatever you put out there.
