The issue is bigger than black and white it is something that affects the entire world. Other non white pople would probably agree if thet weren't afraid of consequences. They is no freedow if people cannot express themselves with out fear.

Imagin a world without white supremacy
Posted: 11/20/2007 12:42:10 AM
1st...I'm gonna post what I just put in the other supremacy forum...
I try so hard to teach my kids that we are all the same under the skin color...but how can I fight the racism they experience everyday?..They are white...they go to mostly black schools...they try to learn & do right..while the black kids get away with acting however they want & causing constant disruptions....they are picked on constantly...I've already had 2 attacked for nothing...just because they are white...one of my sons was standing talking to friends...when 5 black strangers threw him to the ground & began kicking him...because he is white...my other son was taunted to fight for months on the bus by several of them...why?...because he is white & has long hair...he would come home & say mom I don't know what to do...I'm not doing anything to them...he finally had to bust one in the nose to get them to leave him alone...
My neighborhood used to be really nice...now there are little gangs of them roaming around starting trouble....tearing stuff up...twice now we've had one of them bring a loaded gun to school...
I recently got through reading Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl..an autobiography written in the 1850's...it infuriated me...made me want to go back & help every slave that ever lived..
I'm from the South & I know for a fact my family used to own slaves...I've been to the plantation...I've seen the old slave houses...I think it's horrible...but it's not my fault...I didn't do it....I would never choose to do it...so why should we have to pay for it...why should we be hated for what our ancestors did?...are they not intelligent enough to realise this?....they aren't living as slaves now...they have all the opportunities we have & then some...& quite honestly I'm sick of the idea that I should feel guilty for something that I didn't do...& worrying about the safety of my children simply because they are white...my words sound hollow, when I say respect everyone..judge a person for what is in their heart...when they have to constantly put up with crap & have only been able to make a few intelligent black friends...no matter how hard they try...

now I'd like to add that I myself went to a predominantly black school...I was the only white girl on the bus...I was very shy back then...I was able to make 2 black friends on my bus...that's it...no matter how hard I tried...& if it hadn't been for them protecting me, I would have gotten my butt kicked every day....just because I was white....did I deserve this because of what my ancestors did...of course not...
I am also part American Indian & part Scottish....do I think I deserve something because of what was done to them?...Of course not...why don't ya'll quit trying to get a handout & the respect you think is automatically owed to you without you doing anything to deserve it?...If you want payback, then maybe it should come from Africa, the place that sold your ancestors to begin with...
I am so sick of the reverse racism...yet I constantly try to teach my children that we are all created equal...that that is part of what God wants us to learn...that we are all the same...no matter what we look like....but you guys make it really hard...

Pandora04:
Well your first mistake was sending them to a black school. I find it odd that the black kids would laugh at your kids because they are white? The black kids should be laughing at themselves if they looked in the mirror and saw what they looked like. And it doesn't surprise em that they ganged up on your kid 5 to 1, seldom do they have the courage to fight 1 on 1. I suggest you get your kids out of there and put them in a school with white kids where the students actually are interested in learning.

There seem to be two running threads mirroring each other so I've posted this to both. ...

Why do I think this should be in the politics forum?

Because politics has been the work horse for social change and reform. Did we abolish slavery in the US because of science? No we didn't. Back then many people actually believed that people of different races were also a different spicies. (As unbelievable as that idea is to me, they did believe that.)

Did Philosophy have an impact on racism? No, not at all. We had to enact political reform to force people to change. As much as we hate being told what to do, politics had to rear it's ugly head and save us from ourselves.

As long as racism, and yes I agree it is still with us, is shoved into the background, which is what happens when you discus it in a forum that has no power, it won't change. (This forum has no power for this topic only because it is not relevant to the subject.)

You want change? Put the discussion where it will do some good. Don't sit around and talk about it in a safe ineffective place where everyone pretty much feels the same, get out and do something about it. Talk about it in politics where others may disagree with you. Martin Luther King Jr and the many great leaders who made us open our eyes didn't sit and complain in their cozy homes, they went to the places that would make a difference. They stood firm, they spoke with honesty, truth and the moral dignity that we should afford one another, no matter who we are. They were leaders, they were heros!

That's why I say it is in the wrong forum.

ginger1965:
What planet are you on? Ganging up on a white kid 5 on 1 doesn't sound like they wish to be friends very much. It amazes me the level of stupidity the left wing liberals bring to this site. They refuse to accept fact even when irrefutable evidence to the contrary. Its like they go through life blindfolded? Yes when a little boy likes a little girl he might tease her or pull her ponytail, but he doesn't kick the crap out of her. How can you even compare the two?

Seldom does anyone have the nerve to fight one on one; doesn't matter if it's a gang of kids (regardless of race or colour) or a gang of klansmen.

Being that I went to a white school (in rural Canada, that's pretty much all you'll get) and was bullied by groups of white kids - sometimes...quite often in groups larger than five - I can tell you that cowardice has nothing to do with skin colour and to believe otherwise shows how little you understand human interaction at the conflict level.

Sorry to burst you liberal bubble again but yes cowardice has alot to do with skin color. Blacks never fight one on one, whereas white kids do fight one on one. You are such a brainwashed commie ignoramous and proved my point, that no matter what evidence there to the contrary you refuse to believe the facts . Go play with your blowup doll some more NateC and leave the forums for people who actually make sense.

No, I say that because you're ignorant. The fact that you actually believe what you posted above proves that.

Why imagine when we can make it happen.

Put all the white supremacists on a boat and send them back to where they originally came from, Africa.

I suspect they would abandon all their ignorant crap pretty quickly.

I try to only imagine a world without any racial biased whatsoever. Not being a history buff, I do respect the trials and tribulations it took to get to this point. However, I live in the now, a tangible result of that history. I simply decide to create new moments in history by treating all those I socialize with or encounter with respect and understanding regardless of race, gender, creed, class, etc. That is my contribution. Small, relative to the whole, and hopefully infectious.

I like to think I have gone beyond the issue of race. Maybe because I was fortunate enough to have grown up in a diverse community where we acknowledged each other based on our personality. But, unfortunately, my unbiased approach is often criticized purely because of my appearance. That's gonna happen. Fine. Fortunately, a lot of people I know have transcended the race issue and are now moving forward on the human one.

The OP indicated that this is not just a white or black issue. Of course, and I agree. Using the terms 'black' and 'white' are simply examples of the extremes in a color spectrum. The racial supremacy issue affects all races, and history has proved that many societies of races have had a whack at supremacy. History has proven unkindly to billions of individuals. On the other hand, it has proven to be quite abundant for numerous other individuals, race notwithstanding.

I do empathize with the participants of history. It's a shame individuals have suffered. I have experienced countless moments of suffering. I understand. However, I am learning from the past, from what I have experienced, and I am moving forward away from that past and into the future where we belong.

I do take responsibility for my actions. But, I would never take individual responsibility for the ill will or accomplishments of those individuals that preceded me. I don't know them. They don't know me. I am simply responding to the world they created. I would not have designed it in its present form, though I do appreciate much of what it has to offer even though I could have made better use of opportunity now that I think about it. I don't dwell on it. I'd rather move on away from the shortcomings of history after learning from it.

Taking priority in humanity regardless of race, gender, creed, class, etc is important to me. Color cannot be an issue when it comes to those I socialize, work, or even find distasteful. It's the personality that matters most, to me. Requirements may be different for others. I dunno. I'm just not on board with racial preferences, though the discussion of racial supremacy and bias is an important one to discuss... as educated concerned members of society, of course.

Please note, I say all this for the sake of brevity as I am indeed aware that there are many nuances and details to cover that I am unable to cover (much having been covered by so many individuals in this thread). And I only speak from my point of view. A single person in a sea of opinions. Ain't it grand.

And I could say put all the immigrants, and black supremacists on a boat, send them to where they came from where there is no white supremacists and I bet they would stop all their ignorant crap.And from your last post sounds like you are admitting Africa is a shitty place. But really, I would be willing to bring all the black supremacist in Africa here to live the american dream. All us white supremacists (I think of us more as people for white civil rights)can go to Africa. Then non-whites wont have to deal with white supremacists and whites wont have to deal with black supremacist. I am sure all of America will turn into a getto and Africa will become much, much,much more civilized, or as mungojoe implied, not as shitty.

You know I'm surprised you and NateC aren't dating yet? Just think how much fun you two would have comparing your 2"inchers together with your tweezers and magnifying glasses And then you could take turns on NateC's blowup doll, because she the closest thing to a woman you two will ever get. And as an added bonus you don't have to worry about her complaining during sex like a real woman that was desperate enough to ever have sex with you.

And from your last post sounds like you are admitting Africa is a shitty place.

No, I was pointing out that they have the same original ancestors as everyone else, Africans (can't ya just feel the colour flowing through your veins?)

Sending them there would be effective because the only reason their fear of colour hasn't already got them cowering in the basement is, like all punks, they can only have "courage" when they can't be met with equal numbers.

The reality of being outnumbered 100's to 1 would have them crapping their diapers and zipping their lips as soon as the shores of Africa came into view.

I can't even imagine how it must feel to live with so much fear.

my ancestors have already proved our superiority with all our glorious inventions and achievements throughout the ages so there's your proof.

Which of your Africa-spawned ancestors would that be

What does it matter if we all came from the same place or not. Its how we are acting now. Its what we have become.When you say equal numbers, are you thinking of the Jena six that attacked one white boy, the 5 murderers of Shannon/Newsome case,the case of the 3 black men beating the one boy in CAl with a baseball bat. I know there were 5 white people that held a women captive in WV but is there any complaints going on about the punishment. No, because even white people think they should be hung.We dont wnat anyone getting away with murder, not even white people. And when they do crimes of violence, we want them all to pay no matter what the reason is.If black people and immigrants think they are treated so bad here, why do they stay or keep comming? You said you went to Canada beacuse you dont like the way america is, with all the racism. Why dont they go. You must be the coward for leaving.

This is what I do, and I get advice from my family and my friends. I haveworked at McDonals for 6 months now. I will do my assignment but I will not rush to get it done. I work at my own pace. I hate to take orders from a white puperviser because it makes me feel liike I am a form of aslave, so I either dont do it or I argue about it. I threaten with a racila descrimination lawsuit if they try to give me lip about it. I dont like white people because just because they are white. I am on walfare so I can takecareof my 4 children. Asfar as who is better, I notice black peoople wear nicer cloths and shoes. White people drss basically average. I dont like white people comming through my neighborhood. This is our place of refuge, and sometimes I say things to them. There is enough black friends around to lie to the police claiming the white people started it. As far as Mungojoe, I dont buy his lies.All white people hate black people. He is worse than a white supremist. At least they speak what they feel instead of trying to use the I except you attitude to run over us. We know this attitude is fake, so most of us black people dont buy it. I dont.
