I find that the typical people with this attitude are, in fact, racist individuals that are bitter their point of view is no longer socially acceptable.

Thank god for the internet, else they may have to take an honest look at their opinions of themselves and others.

I have to agree. Those types are usually the first to cry that ONLY white people get blamed for racism…as if there is no basis for any racist claims or as if any outright truly socially harmful racist attempts by blacks would be completely ignored.

LOL, I am not sure what world these people live in, but my guess is, FOX news (at the expense of any other view points) plays a very heavy hand in it.

You poor dim bastard, I refuse to explain it to you again. I’d have to use building blocks and a fucking abacus.

You can’t be serious. After all of the hell surrounding Rev Wright, you think people would ignore this if a black man wouldn’t marry an interracial couple?

I live in the south and I never saw mixed kids being treated any different than anyone else. Hell, if anything, mixed girls were often the finest girls in the class.

Shit, until Wesley Snipes hit the scene, El Debarge and “beige brothers” were getting more ass than anyone else.[/quote]

I have to agree with you that mixed girls were some of the finest girls in the class. My wife is one of them.

Rev Wright was using a pulpit to spread racism under the name of Christianity. The same can be said for the KKK. I get very angry when people spit hate from the pulpit in the name of God.

Lets remember the quote from Ray Nagin about a Chocolate City. Did that really matter to everyone? It came and went 2 days later, and he is still the Mayor of New Orleans. If a white mayor would mention a Vanilla City he would not be the Mayor much longer.

The depressing part is the world is stuffed to the gills with these cretins. They simply lack the intelligence to realize they are bigots.

i don’t agree with it. i think he’s stuck in the past.

I spent some time in the South and it was a very rude awakening. There is still a lot of polarization in certain areas of the south. This really doesn’t surprise me horribly and he is not completely wrong about how interracial children are treated in those areas. I don’t agree with him or his decision.

I talked to a dude a few years ago from Altoona PA and he told us after a few beers that “there aint no ni*#er within thirty miles of Altoona” What an asshole. My point is, you don’t have to go south to find shitheads like him.

I was younger, and didn’t pay attention but…

Did people flip their shit when Lauren Hill said she didn’t want white people to buy her albums? Didn’t that basically shutdown her career?

So, historical references and slow social change are all foreign concepts for you? Wait, let me guess…you see no difference in society and racial issues in terms of say, 1990 to 2009?

While things may be more equal right now than at any other point inn this country’s history, for anyone to truthfully have the opinion that ALL vocalizations of racial preference are completely the same is a little naive and not even worth further discussion.

If you see “Chocolate City” on the same level as denying two people from spending their life together, so be it.

For the record, New Orleans sure as hell ain’t “vanilla”. Maybe Rocky Road or Napoleon.

Why are mixed girls some of the finest? As in they can be “fine?” Or, that they are more often “fine?” I hear this alot, but sometimes it comes off as if mixed children are actually being placed above their peers in the looks department.

I have never heard anything like that and am doubtful any comment was actually made.

Lauryn Hill’s solo attempt is still applauded as a fucking masterpiece…by most races.

This question is serious? Why is Jessica Alba fine? Gee, I bet I could give you at least 20 reasons why she is and her race has little to do with it.

Ray Nagin is a moron. I think there are still cities in this country that are still strongholds of white supremacy wherein a mayor who mentioned an all white city would be celebrated as a hero. Unfortunately, there seems to be no cure for stupidity, which extends equally through the races, sexes, religions, and political viewpoints. At least stupidity is truly equal opportunity.

So we can avoid these ‘cities’ would you mind listing them?
