Nonsense! Race relations are a two way street. Whites were just too damn stupid to see just how much they were and are hated by blacks. Whites were of a mind that with the fall of Jim Crow and the advancement of Nixon's Affirmative Action, blacks would then assimilate into mainstream American culture and we could all live as one. HAH! For decades the likes of Wright, Sharpton, Farrakhan, Muhammad and dozens of other preachers have been inculcating their flocks with one thought and one thought only. "The white man is responsible for ALL your ills. You will NEVER be free while the white man exists." Obama is just acting on what he has been taught for decades....and the feral vermin are starting to realize that.
It's not that relations have been set back. Rather the TRUE nature of those relations are now coming to light.
Amen to that. Race relations have only been considered 'good' so long as we have affirmative action, quota's, non white political groups and a whole bunch of other ant white laws and policies.
Well put.
Sharpton, Muhammad, Wright, Farrakhan have been flapping their racist gums for eons. They sing the same ole song over and over and over. Most African-Americans got tired of it LONG AGO. Even the most radical and racist Americans got tired of their rant.
American blacks have it so good. I was in Kenya some years ago...real Africans. I saw an "African-American" couple there, coming to see "their roots." The couple looked very confused and unhappy. They did NOT look like Africans in any way, shape or form. They were OODLES lighter than ANY African. Africans are EBONY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY black, as in the color of tires. African-Americans were cafe au lait, mocha colored, 100% pure American looking. Besides, they DRESSED like Americans. Hahaha, they were such as odd couple, SO out of place.
I thought that it was GOOD for them to see that however "African" might have been preached to them by the likes of Wright, Sharpton, Farrakhan and Muhammad, they WERE 100% American...and 0% African.
REALITY CHECK!
You are not entirely wrong.
But I remember back in the 50’s before integration and I don’t remember whites being hated by blacks to the extent they do now.
We got along. My mother worked back then and I had a colored nanny who watched me, I played with her son, we were pals. Blacks had their own places to go, there were blacks who had business’s that catered to a black clientele, black clubs, black hotels, black restaurants, most of them died as soon as integration set in, Blacks wanted to go where whites went, use their hotels and restaurants, so the black business’s went under.
The real racial hatred started with people like Martin Luther King. Yeah martins was the first race hustler. He was slick at it, a lot smarter than Jesse Jackson, and Sharpton, but he was hustling race much the same as they do.
Affirmative action came in and the hiring of incompetents to fill their quota for blacks. Whites didn’t like that and it showed in their actions at work, Blacks started going to school with Whites and they might not have liked the white boys, but they fell in love with that white vagina, Black women didn’t like that. Blacks students fell behind whites in school so they lowered the standards, Blacks had trouble passing promotion exams so they rewrote them so blacks could pass, Problem was that if the blacks could pass it whites could ace it, so they had to come up with other schemes to get them promoted, and quota’s.
We will never live as one as each race see’s or imagines to see privileges for the other that they aren’t getting. On top of that certain people—and Obama is one of them__ stress these supposed privileges , and vote for even more privileges for one race or another, and it drives the anger of both side.
