Explain then how immigrants who came to this country well after separate but equal was overturned have done a much better job assimilating than many blacks? Not all those immigrants are light skinned either, so you cant just say mean ole racist whitey couldn't tell the difference.

 

I went out of my way, and I think it was one of the most important parts of that post I made earlier, to include blacks on the list of people who've assimilated into this country already and shouldn't be responsible for accommodating a divergent culture.

what?

 

out of curiosity, what is this culture blacks SHOULD be assimilating into? are they not supposed to have their own culture? should latinos not have a culture? should irish and italian food be banned in america? should we not be allowed to eat enchiladas? what about polish sausage?

what?

How purposefully daft do you have to be to start using the 4th grade definition of culture when confronted? Yea man, the government should ban enchiladas and fettuccine because when I talk about poisonous culture what I really mean is food.

In some areas there does exist the 'stigma' of 'acting white'. It does exist. Go ahead, call me a racist for pointing that out. I don't claim to know why that exists, but it does. I also witnessed it with some of my friends in high school, although that was many years ago. But they caught hell for hanging with us white kids for 'trying to be white'.

i think you're allergic to actually answering questions.

Of course. People used to get arrested, whipped, killed, etc. for doing "white" things such as reading and writing. Sometimes cultural things take a while to fade away. I'd have a tough relationship with what I perceived to be white culture in that situation too

Not a huge CNN fan, but Nuke, take a read:

Some choice quotes that just made me laugh out loud.

 

"He had made his career as a diversity consultant"

/giggle

 

He made his career as a member of the corporate bureaucracy, adding nothing really of value just providing lawsuit insurance against inevitable accusations of racism whenever the company he consulted had to fire a minority. "Hey guys, we aren't racist, we can prove it because this diversity consultant does a power point that all of our middle management guys sleep through!" lol, I dont fault the guy for it, everyone's got a mortgage, but that is one of the sadder excuses for a job I've ever heard.

 

"This is post-Obama"

Not yet, unfortunately.

 

"A lazy (N-word)"

about a half a page up CNN gets all edgy on us with the...

"These stories are honest and frank discussions of race. They may be upsetting to some"

How HONEST and FRANK to censor out a word that everyone reads aloud in their head as n*****. They call this f***ing journalism? Either put it in [expletive] if the word breaks decorum or spit it out. This pisses me off the more I think about it, you want an honest (possibly disturbing) discussion on race? Make it so! Dont shelter the reader. f***ing CNN.

 

'"someone who's brown -- that doesn't make them a terrorist." The teacher obviously meant to help her students be more culturally sensitive, but the speech had the effect of making Chakrabarty feel alienated.'

Yup, this is basically how it works. Black History Month might as well be retitled You Aint One Of Us And Never Will Be Month. Any kid with half a brain immediately wonders what the other 11 months are for. Once he figures it out one of two things happen: If he's white he thinks he's better than the blacks and if he's black he already feels inferior. I saw this happen, its liberal do-goodery that winds up doing more harm than nothing at all.

 

"Scarpulla began to notice that her brood was attracting "bizarre looks""

Might want to choose a word other than brood. lol.

 

"He says battling those stereotypes has helped him to find his purpose: Writing about social justice."

Now we know where diversity consultants come from.

I didnt take any of this s*** seriously. Its hard to when its so f***ing bad.

Duke "I dismiss racism" NukeEm everybody

 

I agree with the N-word part of his rant. It's pretty stupid that the media censors itself like that, especially when you're talking about racist remarks.

yeah I agree with that.

 

point, however, was to show that shockingly enough, racism still exists in America.

idiot John McCain, at it again.

 

 

"The President does not have power under the Constitution to unilaterally authorize a military attack in a situation that does not involve stopping an actual or imminent threat to the nation."

- Sen. B. Obama

He's changed his mind for a good cause so it's totally a-OK.

A Kennedy. Just pretend that it was one of Bush's nephews that did this, then imagine your reaction and that of the MSM. Yeah, go there.

If I am reading this rightm both Morse and Giron have been recalled due to their complete ignoring of their constituents and despite the mega-bucks Bloomburg and the Unions sunk into the campaign. Having a hard time finding link from anything other than conservative blogs so far, which isn't surprising. I don't expect it to get as much play as it would have had the recalls failed.

Must have interrupted his selfie's time.
