What is it Like to Teach Black Students?

John Brown was a rider in every since of the word & died for the cause...

"Abolitionist leader John Brown (1800-1859) was born in Torrington, Connecticut. He led an attack on the federal arsenal at Harpers Ferry in October of 1859, to secure weapons for his "army of emancipation" to liberate slaves. Inside the arsenal, Brown and his followers held 60 hostages and managed to hold out against the local militia but finally surrendered to U.S. Marines under the command of Col. Robert E. Lee. Ten of Brown's men, including two of his sons, were killed. Brown was taken prisoner. He was convicted by the Commonwealth of Virginia of treason, murder, and inciting slaves to rebellion, and hanged on December 2, 1859."

I'm bout to be 30 and my friends was the same way. Tryna act a ass to get accepted by others. Them kids probably aint around many white folks and they parents(who are to blame) probably aint got no hope so neither do they. Thats one of the issues wit black people, we aint got a whole lotta hope overall as a race.

Ok Likwid! First post ever and straight to the open forum. /thread

Lmfao he just said his friends act an ass to be accepted and that black people have little hope! Yeah end of thread alright haha:cheeky:. Go flop a tit bitch. I'm beginning to think you're tweezes little sister with some knowledge of how to use spell check since you're not nearly as dumb as that goofy ass fool who isn't even qualified to flip burgers at McDonalds.

In all honesty, I just can't stand stupid acting, ignorant motherfuckers who can't be civil be it you are white, asian, black, native, latin, whatever. You act like trash, people will think of you as trash. Step your shit up, try to be a good citizen, get a real job, don't dance on top of random peoples cars. Try to better yourself. Don't throw shit at your teacher. Read a book. The same people we see acting like dumb fucks today, breed the dumb fucks of tomorrow. Stupid people need to WRAP IT UP . Some of you motherfuckers in this thread need to really learn how to do that shit. Damn it break the gat damn cycle and be normal.

the whole perspective that professes 'you cannot understood nor help black people unless you are black' is is part of the problem as well. IMO. so is the mentality that is quick to make excuses instead of creating solutions. which are two separate issues, but worth mentioning.

I agree with that statement, its silly only to respect a black figure of authority and discard anyone else as not being credible because of their color. BULLSHIT.

unfortunately, i have seen it play out time and time again. it is self-defeating to a point. many humans may have something worthwhile to contribute and bring to the table----if given the chance, barring any limitation on skin color.

hopefully, one day we'll get there as a country. i don't really see this as a black problem. this is a problem america must deal with, all of us.

If that 3/4 of a human being rule is still in writing, Barack Obama needs to change that shit...for real.

You mean 3/5? No, it isnt. 13th amendment. You're about 150 years late on that news. Didnt get the memo?

 

[Dhadnot]

hold up folks.... are we gonna include the Hebrews in these reparations, for building the pyramids enslaved by the Pharaohs? (cough cough.... black Pharaohs.. but I wont lump sum like some folks )

The Hebrews didn't build the pyramids, that's a myth.... Egyptian farmers in their off-season built the pyramids. Alot of that Bible, Torah shit about the Jews in Egypt is false, myth shit.

The government has a responsibility as the "freest (sp) country in the world" for the systematic suppression and repression of its black citizens by its hands. If the government doesn't do right by it's people it will rot from its core, before being overrun, like Rome...

Oh yeah because you were there with your Sony Handycam documenting the event.

This turned ouit to be a good post. And that 3/5 of a human, even though it may be amended (I would have to research that to get actual fact) that is still a mindset.

 

[Rusto]

should the japanese and korean people seek reparations from china after the nanking massacre?
Should the Indians get reparations from Fiji for being enslaved?

There are hundreds of other scenarios that reparations could be argued for. Slavery happened all over the world, yet, the targeted ethnic groups bounced back for the most part and are doing good today

Slavery in the US wasnt government mandated, it wasnt like they were like "yo, white people, go git yourself some slaves, thank you"....they just stood back and let it happen. There just wernt any laws created yet to prevent against that sort of thing.

I think all this getting hung up and bent out of shape about getting reparations, and about racism is actually holding black people BACK! I think about .005% of the population still holds 18th century Mississippi type racist views. The reason why some white people dont hire you is because you dress and talk differently, and that makes them uncomfortable. Not because your skin is black!
Heres an idea, become more successful than white people as a race, and dont tell me it isnt possible, because it is.
Success is the ultimate revenge

I had just read in here that it was still on the books, which is why I said 'IF'. IN any case, yea, 3/5 is what I meant...forgive my brandy drinking self. lol.

 

[Rasan]

And rusto there weren't any laws to stop slavery either. And the laws that were enacted protected slaveowners.
But hey look I don't really care about reparations. Having a black president when just 50-60 years ago we had segregated eateries, is enough reparations for me.

uh no, because I study and discussed it with a Rabbi and PHD of Hebrew studies smart guy lol.

 

[Dhadnot]

... ok.

Damn near every holy book, not just the bible mentions Hebrew slaves in Egypt.

Did I say the Hebrews weren't slaves in Egypt, or did I say they didn't build the pyramids, I wonder?

 

[MaddDogg]
