I only discovered this White Privilege after I had to busted my hump through high school and worked my way through university.
"White Like Me."
SNL already did it in the 1980s.
How about heterosexual and white? I’ve seldom seen a larger group of wusses in my life. It the effeminization of our culture that, in part, is making everyone hypersensitive.
White Privilege — I like it, I plan to keep it.
Jose Antonio Vargas, illegal alien, user of fraudulent documents.
Nobody ever comes out to the sticks to interview me about race.
So, here goes . . .
First, I didn’t do jack to anyone - ever - on a racial basis and neither did my lily white ancestors who came over in the last big wave long after the Civil War.
Second, I treat all people the same. If you’re a dork, I deal with you as I do any other dork. Get over being a dork and I’ll treat you different.
Third, if your thing is your race, get over yourself and quit being a dork.
Forth, if the losers whining about my so-called priveledge worked half as hard as I do they’d look at their loser friends like dorks.
Fifth, we can agree that racism is bad. We can also agree that crimes with a racial component should be punished. We do not agree that the state has a role in determining why somebody commited a crime - only that they are guilty of a crime.
Sixth, I believe in the equality of all people in the eyes of God and equal treatment under the law. After that, your’e on your own. If you can’t live up to these simple premises and want special treatment for your skin color, you’re the racist.
Very few people in the discussion on that page are buying the BS.
Even young people don’t watch MTV... Guess this is their idea of ‘shock art’...
Losers.
Hi. I am puzzled by something, perhaps someone can help?
Who is responsible for influencing or conditioning many young Americans of African descent to characterize our moms, sisters, grandmas, daughters and aunts as less than human creatures?
Growing up in the 60s, year after year I'd roll out of bed in the morning, crank up my 9v transistor radio listening to contemporary sounds, including a new genre of American music its artists, composers, lyricists and producers called Motown.
My Motown musician friends wrote and performed music that made me smile, wanting to dance, celebrate life and wanting to experience the love between a man and a woman they were constantly telling me about. Every hour of every day I could tune in my radio and listen to my talented Motown musician friends singing songs praising and loving women
Listening to these musicians celebrating life and loving women conditioned me to believe they are good, peaceful people deserving of respect, admiration and a large "Thank you" for sharing their musical talent with me, my friends and neighbors.
What I am trying to figure out is why today, many of my Motown friend's children and grandchildren are writing contemporary music performance lyrics that clearly are demeaning and HATING on each other, as well as writing lyrics demeaning women, our moms, sisters, grandmas, daughters and aunts, characterizing women as witches and bhores, essentially less than human not deserving of respect? Which is pretty much how greedy or genuinely ignorant early Euros characterized the African people they abducted and enslaved.
What happened? Why have females fallen out of favor with many young people who write rap hip hop performances?
Another question. Today when ten-year-old American kids wake up, tune into their fav contemporary radio station, listening to lyrics describing anti-social activities and behaviors their parents, community and educators are telling them are harmful to them, their neighbors and community, what opinions, if any, will these 5th grade children form about the music performers writing music lyrics describing anti-social behaviors and activities that often emotionally traumatize and physically harm individual peaceful people and the neighborhoods they live or work in?
Thanks.
