If Obama was Wesley Snipes black, no way he would be in office.
I don't get what your point is with this. There's really no one who posts in HL that believes we live in a post-racial society.
My point is there are black people who believe that cacs aren't racist
I don't care to eliminate it, we should strive to be self efficient to the point where we don't need your people for anything.
oh and

I think they are being generous about those percentages. I think it's more like 65/35. The good news is that 50 years ago it would of been 90%/10%. I think what's happening is a lot of White Kids are growing up seeing Actors, Athletes, TV, Hip Hop, Movies with more black faces. So it's hard for a Racist Parent who grew up in a time that Blacks were suppose to be inferior and tell their kids to hate Black people when they love Kobe, or Tupac and Biggie or Will Smith. I think Black People owe a great deal to Michael Jackson, Michael Jordan, Oparh, Bill Cosby, Eddie Murphy and Will Smith cause what those people did in the 80-90's was huge in pushing the race forward and changing perceptions of the Black Race on a large global scale. I'm happy that white kids are growing up with a Black President.
It's going to be hard for Racism as more and more ethnic groups grow in population. But I have to be honest. I think sadly for America, it's never going to end. This country was built on Racism, mostly against Blacks. Sadly it's in America's DNA to have a hatred for the Black Race. I hope and pray it can change but I don't know if it will happen in my lifetime. With that said as a Black man in 2012, things have changed but Racism is different now, it happens more on a economic scale and behind close doors. Where as Being Black in the 1950's or the 1860's it happen more out on the open.
Eminem is the perfect example of how Racism can change. He obviously grew up in a Racist household (See the Racist Tapes) but it was Hip Hop that changed his perception of the Black Race. Hip Hop has done a lot for race relations than more people want to admit. I never understood the logic behind hatred of Darker skinned people. This is not just a U.S. thing either. Even in Latin America, there is heavy racism against Dark skinned folks from P.R. to D.R. to again South America. Even the whole "Good hair, Bad hair" thing, this still goes on today as many Black women are scared and ashamed to have their natural hair cause Media and Programming says our hair is bad cause it's different from white hair.
It's scary the psychological damage Slavery and Racism has done to Black People over these hundreds of years. Some white people kill me with the whole "Get over Slavery", do you think someone would tell a Jewish person to "Get over the Holocaust"? I think the problem is White America in general doesn't want to address Racism so they say Blacks are only complaining and Racism is over. Even when Barack got elected, I knew that was going to be the new "I got Black Friends" excuse. Now it's going to be, "I'm not racist, I voted for Barack". Look at the election now. Romney is killing Barack with the White Male vote. But Barack is winning everything else, Women, Blacks, Latinos, Asians, Gays, Youth. To me that proves America will always have a problem with Blacks. Especially Black Males. NaS was right when he wrote "Fear of the Black man's dikk". There is nothing scarier to them then Black Men who are intelligent. It goes against all the stereotypes they built up for years.

Lmao...black folks have an artificial culture here and we're simply imitating white folks. I know were taught they've (CACs) always been civilized (false) but today so called blax folks serves as the reflection of europeans. They came here, lived in ghettos as immigrants formed gangs, fought over territory. Each ethnicity (blax is not an ethnicity) had its own mafia and organized crime who engaged in illegal activites, terrorized communities and had shootouts in broad daylight with rivals and police.
The way they attempt to paint us is laughable. They can attempt to hide behind the beautiful society they've created but they did not achieve it in an honest or honorable manner. And nobody talks about the mob violence and how they stole black peoples land and property here in America even after we were "freed." FOH...
And in reality the Anglo-Saxons ruled America and convinced other poor white folks that blacks were their enemies. But the Angloes and Sachsa are Germanic tribes who invaded Keltic\Gaelic\Brythonic land. They even gave their name to Angland and along with their other Deutsch brothers helped systematize racism throughout the world IMO.
If you know about the Dutch and zwarte piet, then you know the they believe blax folks are devils and servants.

there are other forums then HLBecause those cats in TLR don't read HL. You know that breh.but there are people on the coli who believe it. I don't get why you posted the bolded
They skip over this shyt like
I don't hate anyone though. I'm not a fool to think we live in a post-racial society and neither do any of my white friends. Actual friends, not some of the fake people I've come across.
My dude you're going to have to double-space this shyt or break it up or something. My eyes wouldn't allow me to read this.

Also with the debate about "N@gger/N#gga". The word has been used against us for hundreds of years. There is no way it was going to stop being used. We really did flip it. You could take "N#gga" from every rap album ever made and it will still be nowhere near the amount of times White America has used it in movies, books, radio, television, and in their personal lives. Me personally, I don't use the word but I understand why it has evolved. It's easy to say Black People should stop using it but it's harder to analyze century after century of it's use cause then you have to acknowledge the psychological effect of Whites using it against us has had on the Black Race as whole.
My point is there are black people who believe that cacs aren't racist
I don't care to eliminate it, we should strive to be self efficient to the point where we don't need your people for anything.
