the opposite race down country roads

May 23, 2008 22:31

Yeah, I've been talking about race a lot lately. So sue me. Being high yella, too black for some and not black enough for others, you tend to think about it a lot. Oh shit, Leslie cries racism at the drop of a hat. Witness the veritable rainstorm of hats in the media ( Read more... )

west virginia, race

I'm not really surprised by this shit. At least, I should not be surprised, but the fucking tail thing did get to me. *sigh*

I started off with about six different comments threads, but, in the end, all I could hear in my head was, "Paddle faster, I hear banjos."

I love your icon.

I wonder how the woman in West Virginia considers Asians or Native Americans or Hispanics... if black people are the "opposite" race, maybe they're some where like eighth and quarter-turns from whiteness or some weird shit.

I can't even contemplate what this woman's world view must be like.

Well, to put it bluntly, my dear, "They all niggas." And I'd bet good money that is exactly what she'd say. In private, of course, because, "All them Jews on tee vee made hard for white folks to speak their mind."

To cut her just a tiny bit of slack, I have found that most folks out there in the world are pretty fucking small minded and provincial. I was just reading about 11 women being burned to death in Kenya for 'being witches'. You can find that kind of stupid and vicious thinking on all continents and among all peoples.

What is that Einstein quote? *searches* Here we go: "Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe."

Yeah, that Kenyan witches thing pissed me off, too. I was annoyed that a white male friend of mine had a "manifest destiny" reaction to it, but I also understand it. It's not about race so much as it's about "you people are too dumb to be in control". It's like seeing your neighbors beat their kids.

Some of my family members have similar views, which is really discouraging. I don't really know how to relate with that stance at all.

Can I get a card that says "benjamin sTone apologized to Leslie for being white"?

And can I get it notarized.

For the last time, IT HAS TO BE A TATTOO.

I could also get white apologies in one hand and shit in the other and see which weighs more. In other words, you didn't do it, so why are you apologizing to me? Chillax.

Michael Vick makes me cringe as a black person, but you don't see my ass apologizing for him.
