I found this from browsing on racist site. You may want to take a look at the link and the pictures. http://news.blogs.cnn.com/2011/05/0...to-spend-first-mothers-day-in-shelter/?hpt=C1
Mikey my sound, solid advice to you would be to avoid cesspools like racist site and the ilk of those mindsets or you will be forever concerned about the thoughts of others and how they may view you. I mention this because I notice you tend to seem to want everyone to accept you and not judge you for being black. Maybe it will come with more maturity but you will reach a point in time in your life when you will realize that no matter who you are, what you do, how you speak, where you live, how respectful and polite you are, there are going to be those who will despise you for simply being a black man in this world. As a man let your inner drive and zeal, your actions, your values and beliefs, your own personal self discipline and respect set the tone for who you are as a person. No sense of validation or acceptance should be achieved for you through how others view you. I wrote all of this because personally I can care less about racist site or the kind of people who posses such mindsets. The world carries on right along while these folks remain forever bitter and impotent about social changes. If they had their way we would still be riding the back of the bus and lynched for having relationships with white women, too bad for them the world has moved forward and they can't.
To simply put, stay away from racist site. :smt067 CNN doesn't promotes race mixing at all. Where did you get that idea from? Care to explain, eh? I bet you can't.
Nah, I just copied and pasted the title they had on their page. I posted the same one here. I don't allow the thoughts of them to take over my mind. I was curious to visit the site because of what's been going on with Bin Laden and the environmental problems that the south has had. I also looked to see what was going on there after Japan took damage after the earthquake and tsunami.
That was my general point though when it comes to such actions. You are dealing with highly ignorant individuals who are generally obsessed with seeing every action through the prism of race, the individual be damned. Every time they see a white and black person together and primarily a white woman and black man, its going to be a conspiracy of some sort. People like that have no iota of credibility, so even taking the time to observe their filth is a waste of time. I leave it to the folks who track racist hate groups to observe such recycled garbage as racist site. I wouldn't walk into an outhouse and expect it to look or smell good. Shit is shit.
Thanks for your positive input, GQ. Sometimes when I read over the posts on CNN, I just laugh the whole thing off. I don't let their words get inside my head.
So much for CNN's site moderators keeping comments focused on the issue raised in the article. Oh well.
There isn't even a need to listen to them. I'm a history major and so I have researched so much about the racial history of our nation and how it influenced society. The biggest fear of a racist is sexual relations between a black man and white woman. Any other relationship, they can care less about. This is rooted in history and fear of black men daring to think they are equal to a white man. Barack Obama represents a bigots greatest fear, a child of a black man and white woman, rising to become President of the United States. Yet it still occurred. Even though the vilest, foul mouthed bigots could never have imagined it or wanted it, but it happened and not a darn thing they could do about it in this era. If racists like the people that assemble on racist site could keep this nation with its pre Civil Rights policies they would welcome it. Nothing insightful or noteworthy can be deduced from such rancid mindsets. They represent the archaic, foul, gutter mentality of this nation's long, torturous racial history. When you consider black men have been lynched, denied political and social rights, educational and economic opportunities you see what it was all about, maintaining a racial hierarchy. As long as a black man remained ignorant and said "yes suh" and answered to "boy" he was a good negro and non threatening to whites, its when he had knowledge he became a threat. It's 2011 and white women and black men are having relations and marrying at record pace. So that speaks much more loudly than anything you can read on a racist website filled with backward thinking characters.
I understand and agree with your point completely. It's nice to hear you got a Bachelor's degree in this kind of study. I guess what you are saying makes sense, where some WM are not going to like you anyway, simply because you are black. By your logic (what you've said), the only people that would be complaining if a BM decides to date outside of his race (but not for a WW) would be coming from mainly BW. As I reiterated in Adolescent09's thread, we have two groups against us which are the WM (I can tolerate it) and the BW (It's harder to combat it). I hope that African American women can raise above it and prefer men of other ethnicities (in addition to their own) so everyone wins in a sense and everyone feels happier.
