Sorry ... you can't claim you're not racist because you're from NY. Unless you're from way upstate.

“I’m becoming a racist. I never thought I was a racist before. I’m from New York, not Alabama. And I take people as they come; I really don’t care what race they are.
“But now, I’m told that treating people as individuals is racist… being ‘color blind’ is supposed to be racist… That’s what they tell me. And if I notice that most professional basketball players are black while most mathematicians are white – it’s a racist comment. Everything is racist. So I must be racist too.
“And you want to know why the chicken crossed the road? Because it was a racist chicken.”

Excellent
Never fall into the “I’m not racist, but...” trap. It implies that if you are “racist,” it’s OK to silence and attack you.
Now your northern n*****’s a negro
You see he’s got his dignity
Down here we’re too ignorant to realize
That the North has set the n***** free
Yes he’s free to be put in a cage
In Harlem in New York City
And he’s free to be put in a cage
On the South Side of Chicago
And the West Side
And he’s free to be put in a cage
In Hough in Cleveland
And he’s free to be put in a cage
In East St. Louis
And he’s free to be put in a cage
In Fillmore in San Francisco
And he’s free to be put in a cage
In Roxbury in Boston
They’re gatherin’ ‘em up from miles around
Keepin’ the n*****s down
-Randy Newman (Rednecks)
Doing a Google search on a particular word makes one racist? There’s the data fitting the assumption. How about if they think and say it all the time, they don’t search for it so much?
According to race power theory chickens cannot be racist.
Racist has become one of the English languages most meaningless words.
They must be white chickens who are dominant since the A&P Chicken of Tomorrow Contest of 1948. Clearly racist, as well as sexist. They don’t even let roosters trans into chickens instead of just culling them.
Maya Angelou once said in an interview that the Northern and Southern white folks react differently to black folks.
The Southern whites like black folks on an individual basis, but not as a group, so they can have black friends.
The Northern whites like black folks as a group, but not on an individual basis, so not next door.
Now tell me which is the most ‘racist’?........................
The n-word is a democrat word. Always has been. Republicans shouldn’t use it. What did Robert Byrd talk about? White n’s and black n’s. What did Jesse Jackson call Obama when he said he wanted to cut his balls off? What did democrat slave-owners call their slaves? What do rappers call each other? What did LBJ call blacks when he said they would be voting democrat for generations? What did the democrat Mark Twain call the character Jim in Huckleberry Finn? It’s a (democrat) KKK, Jim Crow, segregationist word. Let them have it.
Back in the late ‘70’s I was taking a college class. One of my classmates was in his late 20’s. He had served in the military and had spent some time up north. He had returned to his Georgia hometown. He was black. I’ll never forget him telling us that up north was far more racist, in his opinion, than the south.
He said, “People here know ME. They know I’m Joe. They know I’m John and Mary’s son. People here give you a chance, because they know who you are. Up north, people slam the door in your face. “
“I’m from New York, not Alabama. “
The Emancipation Proclamation freed the slaves in the South no the North.
Ohhh this is a good one!
For some odd reason or other, northerners seem to think that all Southerners are racists and bigots. Even during the Civil War, not everybody in The South supported it. The only people who had slaves were wealthy plantation owners and upper middle class farmers that could afford such a luxury. The common people never did because not only could they not afford them, many didn’t for religious reasons.
It is my opinion that there are waaay more mixed-race marriages in The South than in the north. There have always been mixed race marriages in The South even before the Civil War and during the Jim Crow era....................
Experience has taught me much. Am I racist? Probably, but I really don’t care. My 65 years of experience has formed my opinions, not some bleating libtard going on about “equity” or some such nonsense.
“Doing a Google search on a particular word makes one racist? There’s the data fitting the assumption. How about if they think and say it all the time, they don’t search for it so much?”
Strangely enough, if you overlaid that map with a racial demographic map a whole lot of the most racist places would be the ones with the most black people. Maybe black people are googling the lyrics to rap songs.
So Who gets to define what “AVERAGE” is? < /sarc >
That's because of the documented behavior of Kashwanna and Moquiffel's son T'Hoopsta, who mugged your neighbor last week.
I see color in people. When dealing with a black person, I have to continually watch what I say to avoid “offending” them.
