Traits about my race (black)?

1. Why is it that so many blacks will literally try to engage you in a fight if you happen to bump into them.


2. Why is that so many black women are so rude, loud and ready to fight?


3. Why is it that so many blacks are migrating to the suburbs to live around whites?


4. Why is it that so many blacks spend their last dime on clothes and fake bling, but don't have a savings account?


5. Why is it that you might be engaged in an altercation if you give a lot of blacks direct eye contact?


6. Why can't I leave my car unlocked in the inner city, but I can in the suburbs?


7. Why is it that so many black children have deadbeat fathers who walk out on the mothers?


8. Why do so many young black men kill over anything and everything from gym shoes to getting bumped?








Am I lying?

Traits about my race (black)?
I really hope that you are black because I agree. The majority of black people I go to school with act the way you described because they feel like they have too. As for the successful college-educated black people good for you, you are contributing to our community and our society, but you have to realize not everybody is.
Reply:Why are you so ignorant that you think that skin color has something to do with actions, intentions and intelligence? There is nothing about me that is similar to anything that you have written, but yet if you saw me walking down the street you would just assume that fit that stereotype, simply because of my SKIN COLOR, this really shows how simple minded you are.
Reply:Do you do these things? If so, then you can answer these questions for yourself. If you do not, then it is apparent that you are lying, generalizing or a self-loather.
Reply:Take a moment to really look at the stereotypes you have listed. When you walk past a black person on the street do you really believe these things about yourself and your people? You of all people as a black person and woman should understand that these stereotypes are not true and/or does not apply to all blacks....that is unless you embody some of the exact same stereotypes you have listed...um?
Reply:1. I'm black and I've never had a physical fight. I don't know anyone who starts one from something accidental, that's an easy way to get shot


2. I guess you and I have a different class of friends, live in different areas, and in general just have different experiences because this sounds like preteen behavior.


3 Because inner city schools get crap funding. Code enforcers actually do their jobs. And they have wal-mart super centers.


4.Most Americans are in debt. If they are only spending the money in their pocket and don't owe anyone, they are doing good.


5. people give me direct eye contact all the time. I take it as a sign of honesty.


6. the people are poor and have less to lose by robbing you.


7.The number of out of wedlock births are increasing and collecting child support is a problem for everyone. It's worse for Black people -- this is a long an complex question I would suggest you read "The Souls of Black Folk" by W.E.B.DuBois


or the updated commentary on it by Cornel West and Henry Louis Gates.


8. I don't think you understand what's going on in the Black community it has very little to do with getting bumped or gym shoes. There is a culture of criminality which began in the early 50's. Try reading Ida B Wells Barnett





I would also recommend Frantz Fanon and Amiclair Cabral. If you really want some answers try educating your self on the issue instead of buying into rash stereotypes. It makes you look ignorant.

I'M A 22 YEAR OLD BLACK MAN. FRESHMAN IN COLLEGE.


NEVER LIVED IN A GHETTO. GROW UP IN A VERY UPSCALE NEIGHBORHOOD ALL MY LIFE.


MY FATHER WORKED HARD AND PROVIDED FOR HIS FAMILY.


I HAVE A CHECKING AND SAVINGS ACCOUNT.


I WOULDN'T LEAVE MY CAR UNLOCKED IN ANY AREA. THAT'S PLAIN STUPID


ALL BLACK WOMEN ARE NOT RUDE. I HAVE THE GREAT PLEASURE TO BE AROUND SWEET BEAUTIFUL BLACK WOMEN EVERYDAY.


ALL YOUR QUESTION DID WAS PROVOKE ANGER!


I WOULD NEVER BELITTLE MY RACE BECAUSE ALL WE HAVE IS EACH OTHER.


WHITE PEOPLE JUST LAUGHING AT YOU RIGHT NOW. BECAUSE THE PLAN IS TO KEEP US DIVIDED. IF YOU GOING TO SPEAK OF PEOPLE. SPEAK OF PEOPLE AS A WHOLE HUMAN RACE BECAUSE AS WAS STATED IN OTHER ANSWERS. ALL RACES DO THOSE THINGS.





YOU ARE A SELF HATER AND A VERY FOOLISH BLACK WOMAN.
Reply:I'm not trying to be funny but them black people who answer your question shut you the hell up.





OH AND QUEEN. INSTEAD OF POSTING ALL THE NEGATIVE THINGS YOUR RACE DOES. TAKE YOUR A.S.S OUT ON THE STREETS AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!





AND I AGREE WITH EVERYONE ELSE. YOU SOUND VERY STUPID.
Reply:you know, how about i start asking all kinds of questions about whites, asian, hispanics, and arabs. but im not going to because i know that all races are not perfect why do people feel the need to singe out one, if u are really black then u are a uncle tom or something, why dont u focus on the positive instead of the negative
Reply:No Jubilant don't have to do a damn thing. She was right! I agree with her 100%





Like she said...





Why don't you realize people of all races do these things?








Very Well Said Jubilant!!
Reply:All 8 of your questions could have any race subbed for black,


i know whites and Indians that could also fit in the questions.
Reply:1. Why do you assume so much?


2. Why do you generalize so much?


3. Why do you stereotype so much?


4. Why do you give the racists more fuel?


5. Why don't you realize people of all races do these things?





Am I lying?





There are enough self-hating blacks in America. Don't join in the genocide.





"Honey, go to any inner city, OK"





"Honey" I live in one.





"Stop living in denial. It's killing us!"





What exactly am I denying? That the black race has problems? I don't deny this but I don't care about it because I only concern myself with my own problems. And if you're dying (you claim I'm killing you) that's your fault not mine.





I refuse to give into the "black=bad" mentality that so many blacks seem to have today. I refuse to let the downfalls of some blacks bring me down with them. I'm a straight-A college student and a member of two National Honors Societies. I don't have a damn thing to deny and I don't have a damn thing to complain about.





"You and I both know there's a problem in the black community but you're going to attribute it to something else."





What am I attributing it to? Have you forgotten that every race has problems? Why can only see the problems of the black race? Get a grip.





"And why when any black says something valid about blacks that is negative, we're written off as self-loathing."





Because, my dear, you ARE self-loathing. It's written all over your question and your details.





"As if we can do no wrong. Seriously."





We all have our faults, but really, what good does it do for you to point out the faults in a DIVERSE RACE OF PEOPLE? We all have different problems. We shouldn't let problems that WE DON'T HAVE affect us.





Stop trying to justify your self-hatred and love yourself for who you are.





"You can't deny that blacks have MORE problems in the areas i've described than any other race on EARTH. "





Do you have statistics to back that up? Even if you do, how does this affect me? Should I be wallowing in self-pity because "OH BOO HOO MY RACE IS SOOO BAD WHY WAS I BORN BLACK OMGGGG!!!" If so, sorry, I'm not gonna do that. I'm going to continue to live my life, which seems to be going quite well.





What would you have me do to solve these "black problems" that you listed? If they're so serious and if you want everyone to know about them (I really don't think these problems are a secret to anyone) what would you have us do about them?





Give me one solution to one problem you listed.





You can't, can you? So, again, what was the point of you listing this racist nonsense?





How about you, since you started this, prove that these problems ARE indeed "black problems". And again, even so, WHAT IS THE POINT???? What do you want us to do about it?





I'm waiting.





"I live my life too but I'm honest with what's going on and you're not."





I just told you what's going on! I'm in college, going on my third year, I'm making straight A's and I'm a member of two National Honors Societies! What exactly am I being dishonest about?





Do you really want me to cry about someone else's problems? I never denied that blacks have problems, and I don't really see that as something to deny because it's got NOTHING TO DO WITH ME!





You can continue to preach your anti-black bullshite. I'll continue to make my A's and make my family proud of their little girl. :-)





Have a nice day!
Reply:Traits of my race (white)


1. en slavers


2. murders


3. rapist





am I lying





oh I thought we were all listing the traits of our race. Isn't that the question.





RX -- if your trying to say you believed spouting negative stereotypes about your own race was the best way to begin an honest dialog. Then you are more stupid than you first appeared.
Reply:We do have those problems in our community ,I'm aware of it but pointing fingers isn't going to solve those problems .What kind of community service are you doing to better your community (not only blacks due to the fact that many people would fit those criteria)


1- If anyone try to engage is prone to violence it's because of their over exposure and them witnessing it ,shower them with love and care and they can change their views on life


2- Black women aren't the only rude people on earth I'm not rude but if i was kindness can brake any wall that 's what i was taught maybe you should practice it towards the rude people you come across


3- Most people who have small children or couples who want to start a family move to the suburbs to buy home for their families not only Whites ,besides what's so wrong with that i thought owning a home in a nice neighborhood was part of the American dream for some ?


4-Once again that has nothing to do with race one of my best friend is White (she is a shopolic all her credit cards are maxed up and she has no savings,her lights got turned off she had to crash at my place yet she has every designer handbag and fashion trend possible for a human ,she knows we all told her to get her priority straight nothing to do with race more to do with maturity level


5- i have no clue what you mean by this one ,people may find the way you stare at them offensif it is rude to stare at anyone anyway ! you are the rude one in this case


6-Because many inner-cities are over populated and the crime rate is higher in those regions people get away with some minor crimes there you should't leave your car unlock no where !!


7- many people grew up without their dads or mom in all races (divorce rate in America is the highest in White,Black,interacial marriages,teen pregnancies etc )


8-The collumbine kids weren't Black and they killed because people didn't like them or they weren't popular (what is the difference ? Murderers and unstable people will kill for the thrill not the offense


As i went over your question i realized everything you focused on( Blacks only )happens and all communities ,even countries yet you are so infatuated with the stereotypes that you haven't realized it .I;m not saying no Blacks do this things but instead of pointing fingers help solve the problem to make your world better talking about it isn't going to get us no where now is it ?
Reply:I thought you'd at least balance out your diatribe by citing examples of successful blacks (which there are plenty of - even if you don't see them on prime time).





This shows you aren't black - and if you are, please put bullet between your eyes and take yourself out of your misery!
Reply:I have a savings account with a couple thousand in it how about you.

why do whites insist that blacks stay poor, and not migrate to better areas


why is it that whites spend billions of dollars on cosmetic surgery to look more black

why do white people kill their own family,mother, wife etc. for insurance money
