[quote name='gargus']Never saw that till right now and morgan freeman earned a whole new level of respect from me for that.
There shouldnt be a black history month, there shouldnt be a black college fund, there shouldnt be special college level admissions for black people, there shouldnt be that dumbass black slave museum thats in cincinnati or any of that stuff.[/QUOTE]
The reason why there's a black history month is because for hundreds of years, black people were considered an inferior sub-specious of humans or animals and their accomplishments and history aren't really taught in schools on almost any level. The reason why there are black college funds is because not only were they effectively barred from schools/housing loans and financial aid. The reason why there are special "admissions" for black people is because not only are they under represented in higher-ed, but schools were so segregated until the mid 60's that black people had to establish their own universities to get a college degree.
As far as the slave museum, I don't see what's wrong with it besides the fact that it seems to make you feel uncomfortable. Do you feel the same about the numerous Holocaust museums around the world as well? I somehow doubt that.
If we are going to get rid of racism and actually be equal then we need to start acting equal. And you know, a man getting free college money because he is black is not equal, its racist. A entire month devoted to black people isnt equal, its racist.
You know what you call a white man getting free money for college? The entire financial aid system. You know what you call a month devoted to learning about white people? January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December. For an added bonus, no one calls that racist.
We all need to act like were people and not black or white or whatever.
Which is really just code for white.
The problem alot of black people face in racism is because of the fact they want to be black, they want to be different, they want special treatment, then dont want to be a man or woman because they want to be a black man or a black woman. When you do that shit other colored people will not like you very much because your acting like an asshole.
HAHAHA...black people experience racism because they're black and proud when they're told they shouldn't have any pride because they're black and people don't like black because black=asshole.
Imagine working in a office and its 50% white people and 50% black people and equal parts of men and women. Now everyone treats eachother equal and gets alone fine, now on the black side you have just a few that start wanting more coffee breaks, longer lunches, want to leave work earlier and get paid more because they are black. What do you think the white peoples perception of all th black people will be? Not very good.
Right, because all workplaces are split 50/50 between whites and blacks and only black people want "more coffe breaks," "longer lunches," "leave earlier," and "get paid more" when you forgot to mention that the white workers have already been getting those while the black workers had no coffee breaks, shorter lunches, stayed longer, and were paid less than 10% of what a white worker was making. But yeah, let's keep blaming black people.
tl:dr U R DUMZ and racist. GTFO.
