"We are probably the only race that has prejudices against other members of our own race. "

Anyone who believes this is full of crap. Can I quote the Godfather? "I don't care how many dago, guinea, wop, greaseball, goombas come out of the woodwork." Yeah sure, no prejudices among whites for whites, right? Sure thing, my kraut, mick friend.

I have heard Italians use the term “greaseball” to describe people who are too Italiano/low rent. But the woman is correct in at least mentioning the demeaning beliefs that blacks have towards one another. Whiter looking black women are more highly sought after than jiggy looking blacks. Spike Lee even did a movie on it.

Oh, and if you are a REAL African, well.....let's just say the American blacks hold you in a ton of contempt.

You beat me to it! I was about to LOL at the same sentence. This person actually believes there's more cohesion within other "groups". (I'm of Italian descent, btw.)

I disagree.

We Caucasians have stereotypes, and we like to play; "Our group is better than your group".

But blacks engage in pure unadulterated hatred against each other, and against everyone else. It's an African Tribal Thing. You wouldn't understand.

Chris Rock, the black comedian, asked his black audience, "who is more prejudiced, blacks or whites?" This was followed by an uneasy silence from the audience. He then gave the very honest answer: "Black people, cause we hate black people too!" It's on one of his comedy albums, if you want to hear it.

And by the way, she IS an Affirmative Action Ghetto Girl. Her Harvard pseudo-education certainly didn't give her any class. The Obama Tribe are what middle-class blacks refer to as "Ghetto Fabulous". Hint: It's not a complement.

The speaker in that quote was Woltz, the movie producer who woke up next to the horse’s head. He was Jewish, I believe.

I KNOW I’ve heard the term “white trash” bandied about amongst my white friends. Who didn’t know, as a child, who was from “the wrong side of the tracks”?

I can only speak of my own experiences; but I don’t think that either elitism of hatred of the “haves” is bound in by race.

It should be noted that it wasn't the Godfather per se who said that. It was the Jack Valenti character, and that line, among other things, earned him the horsehead in the bed.
