Those calling for an "honest discussion about race" are the first to shout down anyone who doesn't parrot the PC party line. How can the Black Community hope to achieve parity with Whites if it despises their values and culture?
The so-called "Black Community" and "Black Culture" is already a reflection of, an integral part of, an influence of and on American Culture. If the white aristocrats in this country would have continued to treat the Black indentured servants and free Blacks with the same rules as their white compatriots, all that crap that you are inaccurately generalizing about probably wouldn't have happened. Even after slavery, those bastards STILL discriminated and subjugated a large portion of the so-called "Black community" in this country. This continued from the late 19th century to the late 20th century. Show me one other group than the American Indians in this country, that had to endure what the Blacks in this country endured for centuries. In my opinion, it really started changing for the better about 20 years ago, even then your brethren were calling for a RAHOWA to go off in 1995 or thereabout. Thanks for the laugh !
I don't want to shut down the crap that you guys spout, I have fun debating and discussing it with you.
Most everything you allude to was objectively implemented with respect to whites treatment to blacks. Today we are taught to hate objectivity instead of realizing the practicality of what the people of the past faced. Thus, you are taught to pick a side of the teachers choosing in school and you never really get to ask why. Lemmie give you an example. Looking at it from our prospective we usually justify it and say "They were discriminated against, what did you expect?" However, when a black person got lynched none of us pointed at the black crime rate of the day or the propensity for blacks to steal which was just as rampant then as it is today. Now, lynching is wrong no matter who did it. However, we are taught to pick a side and justify the actions of one while lambasting the actions of another. History is rarely so black and white and we all would do ourselves justice by ignoring the simplicity of skin and look toward the more complicated implications of culture. No one has ever hated a person for their skin color.
If you look for trends of subjugated peoples, the black history trend plays out exactly the same as any other.
I typed a post that is historically accurate. Of course, most of those things are attributed to the Whites who were in power and their treatment of the majority of the Black population in this country. I see nothing historically inaccurate about this sentence: "The so-called "Black Community" and "Black Culture" is already a reflection of, an integral part of, an influence of and on American Culture.".
Can you provide a citation for this: " In Mississippi there were places where blacks lynched whites more than the other way around."? Thank you.
" No one has ever hated a person for their skin color. ". Really?
