I’m tired of suppressing myself to get along with white people

Might get along better if she did not expect others to rally around thugs.

Hey, girl! You a racciss! Besides being a totally self-centered narcissist! I lost count as to how many times she used the words, “I”, “Me” and “Mine”.

[technically right]

Come on now this is a spoof article, right? No one could be this idiotic and still breath.

Black racism is a mental illness.

She should move out then, and in the meantime, STFU. Cross-cultural exchange is what she wanted, she got it, didn’t like it, didn’t really want it after all.

TL;DR: “The whole world obviously revolves around me b/c of my skin color. Why don’t these idiot white people realize how racist they are?”

[jmacusa]

I’m tired of listening to black people bitch and complain about nonexistent ‘’racism’’.

[Lockbar]

Go ahead, just be the negro you wanna be.

[Sergio]

Well done.

ALL of the black military Vets I’ve known didn’t think it interfered with their blackness to every once in awhile shut up and listen. Me me me.

It always amazes me how a man or women with skin darker than ebony can land on the shores of the US without a dime in their pocket from Africa or the Caribbean often not even speaking English as a first language and is more successful than most of the native born African descendants born here and given all sort of opportunities these immigrants never had growing up usually within just a few short years.

I've seen that phenomenon myself, with the several families I've gotten to know who were born in Africa. They had Christian education even in public school as well as in church, and they speak with a British accent, work hard, keep their houses up and their children in line.

quote “what I’m up against every single day: the unintentional ignorance”

yep, that about sums it up!

It’s amazing how their racism blinds them!

I wonder if she has any idea how foully the Chinese were treated in this country as they built the eastbound transcontinental railroad--through the mountains, where men died most miles built. Chinese women were mostly banned from coming here. The story does not end there, but I do not hear the descendents of these people WHINING AND MOANING to this day.

The Chinese didn't look like white people, they did not speak the language, and they had different religions. They overcame all the obstacles without affirmative action and without set asides.

Blah, blah, blah. Planes leave for Ghana and Nigeria every day. Get back to your roots where you won’t have to psychoanalyze yourself every day and can get on with life.

These self-absorbed women come in every color, but the perpetual whining of Blacks is getting worse than boring. It is irritating.

Typical youngster … trying to act like something she’s not. Heck, most of them do that now days … no matter the skin color. Bunch o’ posers.

“Walking home that night, I unleashed all my tears. I wanted to reach out and hug a black man.”

My husband and I spent last week in Phoenix and in large part in the tonier neighborhood of Scotsdale. We saw a lot of black men and everyone of them was out to lunch or dinner having a great time with their white or Asian wife and mixed kids. We did not see one black couple together.

Sorry, lady, black men don’t seem to want to be hugged by their black “sisters.”

She seems to me from her writing to be a thoughtful and kind person, so it’s disheartening to think of the false impressions of the two cases she’s mentioned that she hasn’t been able to get past. Communist revolutionaries and other cynical, manipulative agitators are not your, nor anyone’s, friends. A real dialogue on race would make her head spin, as someone up the thread pointed out.

[lavaroise]

And we are forced to live with such people, ie. If it does not work out because of their attacks, it is our faults, just like with Islam and gays. They can attack us whenever and a coward liberal judge will comply.

[rfreedom4u]

She needs to learn a valuable lesson. That being:

You’re black and I don’t give a crap. Try identifying yourself as a person instead of an “African-American” and you might start getting somewhere.

This nut thinks others are ignorant?
