It's the shade that comprises of all of the other colors of the specctrum...
well, no. Actually, black is the absence of all colors.
FoeTwin said:
what color are you talkin about dude? black and white are both shades silly! you obviously were suspended from school or had your head down and got caught sleepin when your art teacher was lacin the classroom with the facts about shades and colors!

NOT "If" But "When"... You are realistic, so please take your own advise and be impeccable with your presentaion of thoughts...
no, "if" fits. Regard the next sentence. you didnt quote the whole thought. "If, a while back, white men took black people and used them as slaves; they looked down upon them and made them feel like they were lower beings; it is more than acceptable that the natural reaction is to rebel to the opposite extreme." I was merely stepping out of the picture to give a more objective view.

I hear you talking, but wtf are you really speakin on cheif?? Maybe you need to start another thread to chop this concept up, cause right now you're goin off on a tangent, spewing out words that are useless and hold no relevence to this post in particualar... actually, whites were the first slaves, so...
what I said is all there. We separate each other in a negative manner, (the pendulum swings the other way), then we separate each other, but now in a positive manner. The idea is that we are still separating each other. It makes sense. I use the pendulum as a visual reference for the rythym we are caught in....

It's more like we're under the microscope (the people of color), and we're targeted and exploited moreso than anyother ethnicity...It's the way society portrays and misrepresents us in the media that makes you think the way you do about cultural veiws you have no insight on. Yeah we stick together on occasion, when we're 3 or four deep in a house party full of drunk whitefolx or somethin..but for the most part we're not like, "oh hi buddie, I've never seen you before..my name is johnnie so and so..wow that's great, we're probably related...c'mon and meet the wife and kids" when we meet a new brown face that we've never seen before...not saying that this scenario never happens because it does (in places like anchorage, ak where the small minority amount of blackfolx actually really do stick together and help support one another in a community effort like they are supposed to)...
I neither said or implied this. But, there is BET. There is not WET (lol). Not that we need one, but the idea is that there is still a separation involved. There is still an uplifting of a single group, discriminatory of other people of different color or ethnic origin. The pendulum swings to the left the same distance it swings to the right. This is a prime example. "hi, I'm whitey! I'm gonna separate you black folks from the rest of us and make you feel bad." ...now on to current time... "hey, they tried to make us black folk feel bad in the past so lets celebrate our "blackness" and encourage our "black" people." You can continue to fail to realize the connection. But, it is obviously the fact of "separation".

The only "race" I belong to is the human one...and you? Yes cultural differences make us all unique...I didnt vote to be labeled African American when I was born in America and have only seen Africa on a map an on the nat'l geographic channel... the generalizations that are created through mainstream media and racist beliefs of biggots makes us as people identify with the differences other than the similarities we share as human beings...
I agree. I would rather not use the term "race". But sometimes you gotta speak the language most identifiable. If I could've I would've established that fact also. But I gotta take it one step at a time.
FoeTwin said:
That is an excellent question that would fit in another post...this one is about black women who are asking black men why we bring drama to relationships....
ok
FoeTwin said:
Since when has discrimination been fair? Who's being uplifted in this post, other than the black women who were asking about the motives behind peculiar relationships that involve black men and women specifically...are you scared that the veil of ignorance between these two groups is going to hinder your survival as a human?? I mean, we're elevating our mind's through raw conversation with one another for goodness sakes! Can you overstand that?
I can discriminate between a person natively from Africa and a person natively from Europe and yet still be fair about it. The definition of "discrimination" is not necessarily unfair. I do not fear for my survival, no. We can proceed with the original intent. But, another racist generalization will get a response.
