Hypothetically, if someone in here cited a study or statistic showing that black men are more likely than any other demographic to not be involved in their children's lives, how would you respond to someone saying "Black men are the worst fathers!" Obviously that statement wouldn't apply to you, because we all know you're a fantastic father, but that wouldn't offend you?
bingo! I wasn't offended as I am more than comfortable with where I stand on race, but no one should ever lump a particular race or group as if they are one. Stereotyping is often what causes many problems in society.
I think it would depend on if you said "all black men" and or just (based on the study) "if you were to take a study of the absentee fathers in the country, it'd more likely be a POC vs not". that doesnt condemn all black men, just as saying that white men have been historically, the predominant group of home grown terrorists doesn't condemn all white men as being guilty.
dviss1 there it is in black and white dviss. I highlighted it and italicized it so you can't miss it. Now I wasn't offended, not because I didn't think it pertained to me. I wasn't offended because I am very confident in my position in regards to race. If you want to help race relations then none of us should lump people as one. You may not see it and possibly because you aren't white, but I think so far at least 4 or 5 posters have responded similar to me. We all need to learn and denying it doesn't help the problem. Just trying to offer some friendly advice from a guy who has been around for over 64 years and has experienced a lot in that time. When we stop or refuse to learn is when we have more problems. I still learn something new everyday.
I wouldn't be offended at all. I'd simply educate them like I always do. If you want an answer I'd simply point to this:
That statement WOULD apply to my father and my dad. One was never around, the other was always drunk. Bottom line, that statement is semi true. But only true because keeping a tiger caged creates an emaciated tiger who is unable to hunt.
Most problems in black society can be attributed to the family structure. Creating and maintaining families has been hard. Poverty is a MF.
Duh. Nobody ever thought of that. Let's see.....the hypocritical Republicans that speak like they're for the common man but bow to corporate money. OR the race pandering Democrats that speak like they're for the common man but bow to corporate money. Well...schucks. I guess the Republicans might want to round up them there Nazis and shoot them.
I come back just to read what dviss says and I honestly never know what the fuck he is going on about but it's great so keep it up, 10/10
And I'm starting to just not like you either. And cippy can kiss my ass too that's why he's on ignore...
Who is we? If you are referring to blacks, that's a false claim dviss as she garnered 89% of the black vote.
