Making jokes about black people, even when they aren't present just isn't funny. Using "gay" as a derogatory term just because no one around you is homosexual isn't okay. Sometimes people like to make racists jokes, even if they don't beleive themselves to be racist. And they will reassure you that they have Asian friends, and lesbian friends. Well ( Read more... )

hey, good to see you and lalea today. although i'm not entirely sure on the new years thing, if you have more information i'd like to hear more details. i have to be back in santa cruz on the 3rd, so it would be hard to do it all.

oh, and on the racism thing, that's a good one to talk to sean about. because he does use those terms (specifically because he enjoys offending people) it would be an interesting conversation to have. again, it was really great to see you and get a hug :)

I’ve found making jokes about black people when they ARE present is funny however. This goes for all the colors of the world, double for red cause they usually get left out of the fun. As for the “gay” thing, well, it’s gay that this equivocation offends our same sexed lovin’ brothers and sisters. Though I have tried to use it less these days I understand the problematic addiction of its use for others. Having my self heard it maybe 400 times a week throughout elementary school with almost no thought to its meaning beyond “a bummer of great magnitude” and “odd as a bee selling tuna.”

i'm taking porch monkey back.

i like how Kylee drops my name and runs, leaving me to hang in the fire that is Sara Rademacher. i love you Sara and i'm glad you feel strongly about protecting others.

What's a wetback and a kaffir? wilhelm_klink December 30 2006, 17:38:21 UTC
I have a gay friend who uses gay as a derogatory term. And if I ever go back to Davis, I'll ask my black friend what he thinks of the whole nigger issue.
