Zone1 When Will Black People Get Over The Past?

[NewsVine_Mariyam]

And here we see the example of a loser.

I asked him to tout his accomplishments so we can all be impressed but he never does, doh!

That's what happens when you don't have any accomplishments.

Only 1 group has codified their racism and enforced it with the rule of law in this country. Whites. That's an inconveneint truth that must be faced in order for things to change.

I don’t disagree.

Obama had no problems with race relations. White racists had a problem accepting a black president.

Obama's race relations legacy summed up -

Barack Obama legacy: Did he improve US race relations?

Obama was the first mixed race president of the US. Racists fight over his colour.

 

[Captain Caveman]

The definition of racist has not changed. Why do whites so badly want to use the N word? Whites have all kinds of derogatory ethnic slurs they call each other and you don't see us whining because we can't use them.

Whites don't, the world just endures blacks shouting that derogatory word in rap songs and when fighting other blacks. Blacks are so hung up on that word, they've convinced themselves it's a white problem.

In my circle race relations aren't talked about at all. We have had many black tenants over the years most of whom were troublesome in some way, but no one ever used a racial slur when discussing them. We have but one black tenant at the moment and he is constantly behind in his rent yet treated with respect and forbearance.

 

[Woodznutz]

If race based attitudes remain, that nullifies or reduces the gains that can be made.

They way I see it it's two steps forward, one step back for you. Not one step forward and two steps back. So, take heart, you're making progress.

 

[Woodznutz]

Do tell

Yup.

 

[BackAgain]

You offered an opinion on aspects of my personality or persona that you know nothing about, aspects which are not in evident within my comment.

That's not only arrogant, but it demonstrates a lack of abilities when it comes to critical thinking as well as the ability to analyze a set of facts and draw a conclusion that is accurate.

In short, I nailed it.

 

[Concerned American]

And stop treating us (white people) like it's our fault for the way that their ancestors were treated?

When the government quits giving them special privileges and pay based on race.

 

[Concerned American]

That's funny. Do you all also blame the women when their significant other beats the crap out of them?

Naw, they blame the cop that arrests the violent criminal when said criminal dies of an OD. George Floyd.

 

[MisterBeale]

Bullshit.

Wow.

I am so impressed with your concise and exact rebuttal.

nice.

A tad above my pay grade , yet an apt description of our core socio-politico existence juxtaposed to the nature in which we fuel it all along Mr B

Wrong. We talk about whites who practice racism. Like you.

If I'm that way, that is my business. And you are lying every time a white person gets suspected of committing a crime. The media brings up whiteness but never mentions the blackness of the black suspects.

 

[JohnReese]

I never thought of it that way but to a certain extent you have a point. Especially if you consider this message board a microcosm of U.S. society and a significant portion of its members believe they are just a normal or average white person when they in fact harbor racists beliefs and opinions.

Therefore quite a few of them in fact fit that walking time bomb analogy in all likelihood due to the conflict created by their cognitive dissonance between seeing themselves as not being racists while knowing that they check many of the boxes in response to the statement "You may be a racist IF you believe: ..."

That's apparently a lie.

Whites and blacks got married during slavery.

 

[JohnReese]

That's apparently a lie.

That is not accurate. I live in a beautiful town majority of whites. It's a very secure town with outstanding schools and clean streets. How come black areas aren't safe and have horrible schools? I've never seen a white family flee locations to escape the White race. I've seen blacks do this, and you're probably one of them who moves away from his kind but every day refers to White as the problem.

 

[JohnReese]

Whites and blacks got married during slavery.

It's people like you who rail against Whites and are always the ones in relationships with Whites. So how long have you been with a white person?
