the Honorable minister Colin Kaepernick is fired up lately

[Whips-n-Chains]

ethnicity? country of origin? muslim aint a genetic trait...if you arab/middle eastern/from the levant, then i see why you feel that way

Black/Lebanese. Father's side from Lebanon.

I'm just talking shyt, I actually have Jewish friends from Israel that I'm able to chop it up with. We disagree on the obvious but we don't let hate get in the way of things.

I do support Palestine, however. And I do think the anti-islam sentiments are getting out of control. If it were any other religion there would be protests AGAINST such ignorant views but since it is Islam, it's acceptable to wield ignorant opinions.

i agree there as well, America loves hyperbole and creating one blanket enemy regardless of the facts

Every society needs an "enemy." That is just another control mechanism, same as religion. I'm actually closer to a Buddhist these days than anything else...everything else was just indoctrinated into me since birth basically.

funny how [black] people are so quick to support palestine when arabs of the levant have been some of the most racist and oppressive toward blacks and consider themselves white...yet jews here in america were one of the biggest non-black contingents to help out during the civil rights movement....

anyway colin x

Who is more oppressive to black people though?

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

arabs

 

[Osmosis]

arabs

than jews? You see what's happening in Israel.

And what power do Arabs field in this country? At worst they own some corner stores in the hood while Jews are in real positions of power and a vast majority hold the same sentiments as cacs.

um, you interjected into a global conversation...not US-centric. arabs have been quite a bit more violent and oppressive to blacks worldwide

and what atrocities have jews done against blacks here? i know it's the wave on the coli to resent the amount of power and wealth they have, people take that in and of itself as them oppressing us, but jews in this country have not historically, as a group, been oppressive to blacks. there are no facts to back up this "same sentiment as cacs" when jews have continually been one of the most progressive voting blocks.

Quite a bit more violent and oppressive? There's an extensive history of violent attacks and discrimination against african asylum seekers in Israel. Arab racism is certainly an issue but race-driven violence and discrimination is not as prevalent as it is in Israel.

When people complain about the media and hollywood's portrayal of blacks who are they complaining about? The owners of Viacom, Disney, Time Warner are all Jewish. Before the racist tapes, Donald Sterling had a history of refusing to lease apartments towards blacks. This is concrete, tangible racism and one example of why we should be weary of jews in positions of power. Even on a much smaller level, where is the Arab equivalent of Ben Shapiro? He is one of the biggest upholders of white supremacy in the media. You don't see Arabs or Muslims in the media that vehemently oppose black causes or spew white supremacist rhetoric. Lastly, CAIR, the biggest muslim organization in America stands in solidarity with black lives matter. Haven't heard the same of any major Jewish organization.

And yes I do acknowledge that there is a contingency of Jews that are very progressive and have the best interests in mind for minorities, I am not maligning them. They've been very important to our cause.

the creation of stereotypes of blacks goes beyond jews/hollywood execs/etc (we caricature ourselves - empire, tyler perry, mona scott young), donald sterling is one man, and i'd encourage you to research the brutality, and racism blacks (africans) face at the hands of arabs...they have been trading us as slaves for 1000's of years and still do today...so yes, arabs are a bigger enemy to me

You are REALLY talking out of your ass here....

You do realize historically many of the slumlords in poor Afrikan American communities have been Jewish right?
Overcharging rent on sub par and often DANGEROUS properties. And not caring about the safety or complaints of their tenants.

Many jews owned stores that would not hire Black people, yet took MUCH money out of the black community and put it into the jewish community.

please provide receipts for the bolded...not donald sterling

as for jew owned stores, while that's discriminatory, 1. the impact of that is marginal as jews aren't widespread, 2. the fact of the matter is all communities who have built an insular economic structure have done that to blacks (chinese, koreans, mexicans, arabs, indians, etc.), that's our own shortcoming as a community (aided by anglo-saxon oppression that has financially disadvantaged us over generations)

you're spitting baseline "jews are the devil" rhetoric...don't take me as saying they're a faultless group, but the lengths blacks go to to for arabs is comical when they have by far been a bigger enemy

 

[Max B]

arabs

Theres many different type of arabs, black,brown and white.

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

what does color have to do with anything? yes, i am fully aware there is no one shade arabs fall under, but most "black arabs" are arabized africans (i.e. sudan), not arabs, they would like to be considered that :c00n:, but go see how "true arabs" feel

 

[blackestofpanthers]

Is this chick really in here saying the people who funded the trans atlantic slave trade aren't that oppressive towards black people?
