Black People can't be racist

I would hope humanity would identify with a progressive movement away from racial tensions and it will take education and cooperation for us to plant those seeds and maintain a healthier society for future generations. I also am proud of the steps we've made even though it's a work in progress. Being able to discuss it here is a really good thing.

 

Dviss1 misinterprets what people here are saying and then overreacts. I'm not going to change my opinion just because someone gets irrationally offended by harmless comments.

 

Black guy has a white guy jump in his car. He uses his concealed handgun to hold he guy until the cops arrive. There was zero issue with the police. They even shake his hand.

 

Thats impossible. EVERY SINGLE black person is targetted I thought?

 

Any black person born after December 6, 1865 were never slaves either.

Maybe we can stop playing that card?

 

Denny, you can find things on Google to support your stances always. Go check out the book "white cargo"

And I think having ancestors that actually went through these things kinda trumps whatever link you provide. But I'm sure you'll beg to differ. But keep on keeping on. I wouldn't expect any less from you

 

Almost every treaty the USA government made with the Indians was broken, by the USA government.

In recent times, there have been many disputes over Indian treaty rights. After many decades of the USA government abusing treaty rights, the Indians have learned to use our legal system to defend their rights. The Indians have won almost ever legal battle to maintain their treaty rights.

The fight by the Native American Indians to maintain rights granted to them in treaties is still being fought to this day.

Also, after the USA government took the land from the Indians, the Native American Indian children where forced to attend schools that did not allow them to speak their native language. Even their native names where taken away and replaced with Euro names. That is not freedom.


Fact: The USA government waged war on the Native American Indians, the longest war in USA history.

Are you saying genocide is better than slavery?

 

Ask native Americans and Hawaiians if they feel like a "nation within our nation" and you'd likely get your ass kicked

 

What about all of those Japanese and Chinese immigrants who worked on plantations in Hawaii. How about when the Japanese were sent to Internment camps, is that not slavery?

 

Wrong, my last name is very Irish and I get shit for it from Random people in various places.

I'm not diminishing the treatment of black people, or the treatment of anyone that is discriminated against. People are dumb, good news is each generation gets better.

 

They collect that data on white on white, white on Latino, Asian on black too Denny.

But thanks for trying to continuously marginalize my experience with discrimination with Irish and native American blood.

Seems as if you're part of the problem yourself

 

Lol I could just as easily say that's discrimination and that I don't associate with other white races.

Irish people werent allowed to eat at establishments and were called white 'n' words. Thats far worse than what you claim

 

This is getting way off track. I'm going to call bullshit on Denny's assertion that Native Americans were friendly with conquistadors and european invaders for centuries before Grant was president. That is literally lumping together thousands of tribes as pro european settlement. Read the march to the monteria by B. Traven and you'll see how the locals were enslaved by the Scottish logwood pirates and hung in the trees upside down so they wouldn't escape at night ..often with tongues removed so they wouldn't plot revolt. You make it sound like the indigenous people just threw a party when the whites showed up. White slavery has occurred throughout history mostly during the Ottoman and Roman empire periods. I posted a link to the history of racism if you backtrack a page or two here that explains how Irish, Poles, Jews and Italians were not considered fully white because they were not protestant. You can read on that link about the Native American laws and relocation, Japanese interment, South African apartheid, Rhodesia, Australian racial history...on and on...in a nutshell, history is ugly and complicated when it comes to race relations. It should also be pointed out that africans hunted and sold slaves to Dutch, English and Spanish merchants to be relocated to the new world. Treatment of black culture in America in 2015 is not fair...but it's improved and hopefully will improve more.
