he or she said its impossible to be racist against white people because they are the oppressors. Then complain that we can’t let blacks assimilate too much into their culture.
I take a huge offense to that type of thought pattern. First of all when you look up the term racism is doesn’t include at the end of the definition “but white people”. Second in history every person has encountered racism and oppression. Does that person realize that the word “Slave” comes from slav people who enslave so much that it became a fucking word. Third, you have no right to say who to be bully.
Seriously fuck you. As I am writing this I realize I have to unfollow you. You promote people who I care about to treated like shit for something their ancestor or society has done. You are taking away someone’s individuality by saying “You are all shit because my race and your race use to fight”. You claim how you are black so it does matter.
Yes, it does. You will be angry at being treated like shit but people like you breed a new generation of racism. You get mad, you want to have fucking attitude at a group of people but god forbid they treat you the same. Yes I am black in this society but I am so much more. Just like people being called white can be italian or jewish. Hate like this breeds ignorance.
My ex was kinda a racist prick when I first met him. I tolerated his presence because he was a mutual friend. I saw him grow into a open minded person because he was able to encounter a minority on a one-one basis and realized we came in all different varieties. My uncle who is a white Brooklyn Jew and has been with my aunt for 30+ years. Your thinking would require him to treated like shit when he is on the streets because he is white. Yet he fell in love with my aunt in a climate that had recently dismissed anti miscegenation laws.
How dare you hide your fucked up thoughts behind a color. A fucking color. Being a so called “minority” does not give you a “get of racism” card. it gives you a different history than most. You’re stupid argument about assimilation is fucking ridiculous. If you haven’t gotten the memo yet there are hundreds of millions of minorities in the world. Someone got you covered. You are showing me you are the type of person willing to fight me for daring to wear my “rockish” clothes or talk the way I do.
I do it because I come from a different culture. I am not just a black person. I am Emem James. You should grow the fuck up and realize that you can’t hold grudges about the past, you can only make sure nothing like that occurs again.
