Don't backtrack. You answered the question. One day your mindset will die. AND NO ONE WANTS YOU TO FEEL GUILTY. JESUS YOU CAN'T BE THAT DENSE CAN YOU? We simply want to feel empathy. But you're incapable.
How exactly are "people of color" treated? Are you referring to the recent bunch of thugs being shot by police? Or is this about the white woman clutching her purse as you walk by her at the mall? You just can't lay out a blanket statement about how "people of color" are treated. America is set up for black people to succeed.
The problem is the racist stereotypes that you subscribe to. Your belief in them perpetuates the the problem. As does your apathy and inability to be part of the solution.
Ignoring the common patterns and problems within each race perpetuates the problem. Until society is ready to recognize this, everything else is an excercise in futility.
I watched it. My thoughts: I have brown eyes so life is good. it wasnt very well done. The blue eyes should have got to smoke blunts and the brown eyed people should have had to pay taxes so the blue eyeds could buy the sandwiches with food stamps. My favorite part was when the one black guy was dining on that good food. That look he had in that split second is probably how a lot of white people look to you. Why didnt the blue eyes just jump up and give her a haymaker to her baron babymaker? Or shoot her cause #blueeyesmatter
I'm one of the two people who voted yes, and I did so specifically for the interest in perspective. I don't know how my experience with the world would be different if everything else about me except my skin color were the same. There's no way to know "how I would be treated" as a black man.
I got 30 minutes in and fell asleep. You know, blue eyed people don't have what we call a culture. You can't have it both ways. The comparison is fine if black people consider themselves identical to whites in every way except skin color. They don't.
If I start a poll that asks if you'd rather be healthy or have ALS or something ....I don't think I'd choose ALS for perspective.
Im surprised you dont respect elprez's opinion more. Isnt he asian? He goes through the same shit. I bet he's constantly stopped in the grocery store by old white ladies trying to convert liters to quarts and shit.
