And yes, generalizations are quite easy to use, and can be valid depending on the topic.<br /><br />For example, it's a generalization to say that black men are typically arrested for dealing crack cocaine, but it's also a fact.<br /><br />It's a generalization to say that black women don't typically breastfeed, but it's also a fact.<br /><br />It's a generalization that white people have a fit when they are called racists, but it's also a fact.<br /><br />See how that works.<br /><br />Anna Renee<br /><br />Nah, people understand they can't go around calling people kikes, or fags, or bitches, or spics, or guidos, or any other slur for any other group, regardless of whether members of that group use said slur among themselves.<br /><br />That means that people understand how this whole slur thing works, they just don't want to follow the rules when it comes to black people. So, since they expect us to follow the rules, we need to expect them to follow the rules. That's the way is should work.Big Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02510881583909431416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6803135128442396638.post-52804572632630160452010-08-16T10:08:16.033-05:002010-08-16T10:08:16.033-05:00Go ahead Imhotep with your bad self (for the non-B...Go ahead Imhotep with your bad self (for the non-Black folks, bad means good in this reference)<br /><br /><br />LOL, definitely need to save this commentary for my own use!

It's past time for black people to not give a f*@%<br />about what a racist says. We are just empowering them when we whine and moan about their calling us names! Let's pretend: What would happen if black people would just go poker faced when white folks start with the name calling? If we would simply not respond in any way shape or form? Just let them call us whatever nick nack patty wack name they want? Would we lose something? WE have given too damned much power to this stupid word! It doesn't even have a definition, people!! We should all simply unplug from this "name" because we are all acting like fools by jumping everytime someone uses it.

Well, that recent episode on Laura’s show with caller Jade, is a clear example how that conversation would transpire, and have transpired in the past.<br /><br />Jade is Black America, Laura is white America. Jade calls in to talk about some racist shit that happening in her home and involves her husband, and that she is frustrated with the whole thing. In true white America form Laura ignores Jades thoughts and concerns and tells Jade that she is overreacting, and too sensitive to whites uttering the nword. And if she is so sensitive, she should stick to her own race. To Laura, Jade’s feelings does not matter, and it’s ok if whites drop the nbomb whenever they see fit, and Jade’s husband, friends and family can casually call her a nigger and she should be cool with it.<br /><br /> <br />Laura then dropped the Obama card, said we have a Black president, many whites voted for him, so see no racism here. Jade points out accurately that it was mainly the young whites who voted for the brother. Laura unable to refute the point, characterizes Jade as a person (Black) with a chip on her shoulder! The sista calls in for some advice on some insensitive shit in her home, she ends up being chastise for not putting up with stereotypes and not allowing the nword to flow freely in her home from the mouths of her neighbors and family. How can you have a conversation with someone who don’t care what you have to say, don’t care about your feelings or your existence? ain’t no conversation to be had under those conditions.<br /><br />Bitch Laura, I can say bitch! The comedians on HBO say bitch all the time, see bitch! Bitch! Biatcheee! When Jade start to call Laura on her racist ass, Laura shows her true colors (lily white, pale white, casper white) Laura say “don’t NAACP me” WTF !!! That comment right there told me how Laura feels about Black people and those who have fought for our civil liberties and rights.. And by extension how white America feels about us. Don’t Jesse Jackson me, don’t NAACP me. I want my country back!<br /><br />By the end of the conversation the sista is hurt. No progress made, the sista’s position not respected, her words not valued, and in fact is portrayed as the angry black woman who is always complaining. America is Laura, a hateful, insufferable white bitch!<br /><br />Thank God the call ended when it did, another 10 seconds and laura would have claimed reverse racism. Sista’s first mistake was to believe that white people care, some do but most are like Laura, they don’t want to be NAACP’d into doing the right thing.Imhotepnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6803135128442396638.post-80156417825369629632010-08-14T05:15:25.582-05:002010-08-14T05:15:25.582-05:00ravin' black lunatic,
All that was said about...ravin' black lunatic,<br /><br />All that was said about someone's "intentions" not necessarily defining the effect on the "victim" can be said for the "victimization" of said action. We don't really know if anyone was "victimized" in your two stories. It is just assumed because the "victims" are non-white. To allow a "victim" of someone's "action" DEFINE the "intention" of that action is also self-evidently troublesome. So troublesome is this "right to be victim regardless of intention" that it allows you to "understand" when a black man mass murders many whiteys.Thordaddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887901925655428541noreply@blogger.com
