Uncle Tom is a racist term.
Couldnāt have said it better.
Calling out racism isnāt race baiting.
I am successful. Probably more than most people here, actually. I donāt need to comply with the norms of institutional racism in order to be successful. Thatās what Uncle Tomās do. They sell out their own people and culture.
Tell me about yourself.
Iāve been waiting for the āyou peopleā statement. Your hate is showing.
I come to speak the truth and to make it known that my people wonāt be subservient to the social structures and institutions that have oppressed us for generations. I advocate for what is owed to my people.
Thatās right. While you might prefer mammy in the kitchen, thatās not what you are going to get from me.
When youāre insulted by the truth, and unwilling to change, you are a part of problem and are perpetuating racism and oppression against people of color.
If you want to speak at my level, get on my level.
Itās standard among whites and is exactly the type of institutional racism that I am trying to address.
Itās always someone elseās fault. Have you tried looking at your own actions, even partially, and considered that you might be perpetuating racism too?
Jim Crow laws were repealed in the 1960ās. Try again.
Itās always someone elseās fault, when it is. Blacks built the country that you enjoy. You would have nothing if it werenāt for the forced labor of black people. We canāt even live in our own communities in peace without your white police officers killing us.
My own actions at calling out racists and racism? Maybe I could do more. I will concede that one point to you.
Black people canāt be racist against our oppressors and those who control the system. Itās impossible.
Got to love racists, no matter what the skin color is
Idiots
now the pledge of allegiance is racist
why not leave this racist country to a country that supports your views?
Where do I begin unpacking this load of nonsenseā¦
Golly, I thought Black children were the same as White children. How silly of me. I taught for fifteen years and my Black children performed as well as my White children, my Hispanic, and Asian children. I had a system where I could not know whose paper I was grading until I passed the papers back - so there was no engineering of the results.
Of course it was an AP English class, so the children of color didnāt have the level of racial hatred that Nia nurtures in herself. There is no āWhite cultureā - there is mainstream culture in which people get along by being polite, by keeping up their homes, by not being overly loud in person, by not disturbing the thoughts, rest, or productivity of entire neighborhoods with drum machine/scatology lyric noise blasting while navigating to nowhere - thatās not āWhiteā- itās politeness and consideration of others.
The āprivilegeā you speak of is that for many White people, itās fairly easy to assess the intentions and temperament of other people in mainstream culture. With Back people, extra care must be taken, as many, like Nia, live to take offense. This causes a distance, and a mistrust that is lazily called privilege.
Guess whatā¦ peopleās behavior has alot to do with what they get in life.
You donāt have to act like white people act. Then you will get what such behavior earns you. It has little to do with skin color.
Why? You dont know how to cook?
What is your occupation?
and the chinese and the Native American indian are excluded?
racist, what do you have against the Chinese and native americans?
as for white officers not killing you , how about some of you obey the law, why is it that you dont care about black males in chicago killed by other black males, or dont you care?
oh no, and the New Black panther party and Nation of islam are oppressed ? you dont think they are racists?
Jesse āItās Okay If I Have A Mistressā Jackson
Al Sharpton
Louis Farrakhan
All RACIST ASSHOLES!
Congrats.
You have achieved the impossible.
Check the time stamps on those posts.
If you canāt figure out the significance of those time stamps, maybe you can get some money from https://www.uncf.org to go to school.
Why are you guys allowing this troll embarrass this forum?
So much to talk/write about then feeding this jackass.
Sowellās comments about inept teachers reminds me so much of how the process of teaching teachers has here and there been so overrun with what used to be the extreme far Left before it stopped being extreme to so many on the Left. In particular Iām thinking of that respected educator Bill Ayers who has spent decades now trying to transform his students into Useful Idiots who will not educate but indoctrinate as they were indoctrinated.
Ayers, through those heād chosen like Obama, mismanaged the Chicago Annenburg Challenge so horrendously by NOT concentrating on things like remedial education in order to swing money towards his Leftists buddies and their socially progressive pabulum that even with more than a hundred million to spend they basically had to finally admit that theyād fallen far short.
Now Barry was a mere lawyer so he has at least a little of an excuse (very little) but someone like Ayers and the other āeducatorsā?
@nia would you support voluntarily association and not forced integration between our peoples? So if blacks and whites wanted to live together they could, but they donāt have to. Black only communities could come together and exclude whites by force and white communities could do the same. This same rule applies to all races that want to live this way and to races who want to live together and not live this way.
Nobody was arrested for refusing to recite the pledge of allegiance.
I donāt recite it either, donāt believe it or in it.
