Jamie Foxx has revealed that he finds himself facing racial challenges in everyday situations of his life. The African American actor explained during an interview with Vibe magazine that he is always sensitive about his skin colour. Jamie, 45, admitted that 'Every single thing in my life is built around race'. He told Vibe magazine: 'Cause as black folks we're always sensitive. As a black person it's always racial. 'I come into this place to do a photo shoot and they got Ritz crackers and cheese. 'I'll be like, ain't this a b***h. Y'all didn't know black people was coming.' In the same vein he explained that if he turned up to the photo shoot and there was fried chicken and watermelon, he would also be annoyed at the stereotype.

Jaimie Foxx is a symptom of the disease. He’s succeeded in his career and is rich, but needs to be a victim.

Good morning.

I ask the First lady about Ritz crackers and cheese. She has no idea what Foxx is talking about.

Then I asked her about fried chicken and watermelon. She said that would be great for dinner today.

I suspect it’s just because it’s cheap, so the “big star” is insulted.

Truth is, in situations like this, why should they be provided anything? They’re there to take some pictures - so take your pictures, then go out to a nice restaurant to eat. You can afford it. You just want to bitch.

I spent several years dealing with contract riders for entertainers, and always thought them to be ridiculous. We’re paying you all this money, why can’t you just get what you want yourself? And if you don’t want to or don’t have time to do that, be gracious about what we DO give you.

Maybe JF could use some anger management: start by taking that huge chip off his shoulders. BTW, JF, you aren't Ray Charles.

Black Africans would call him colored and discriminate against him. For all the romanticizing by American blacks, it's worse there than here.

But, you hear little about it because they're not the ones with deep pockets to shame into parting with it. The white colonialists are, there as here.

So, all the world aligned against the white colonialists, to relieve them of the contents of their deep pockets is what we've been seeing for the better part of a century. The white colonialists are cooperating, and parting with it.

Some former colonies have actually succeeded in relieving themselves of white colonialists. Freedom from the dread yoke of the white man, wealth returned to the presumed rightful, indigenous owners has been achieved.

But has it? No. The wealth is gone, grinding poverty, deprivation, starvation and war have come in the place of it. This, too, is presumed to be the doings of that great bogeyman of the world's indigenous peoples united, and so the white colonialists are still on the hook.

There will come a day when that gravy train is bled dry and can no longer provide, can no longer be shamed into parting with the contents of deep pockets because those pockets are empty.

Then, whose fault will it be? For if we've learned anything over the course of a near-century, it's that indigenous peoples are never responsible for their own circumstance. It's a sort of noblesse oblige turned inside out, with the perpetually needy blaming and enslaving those who aid them.

Who's left to blame? The Chinese, lol? Their lack of concern over such matters is epic. They will be far more draconian in colonizing indigenous peoples than any white colonialist ever was.

Israel. That's whose fault it will be, that tiny, embattled nation about the size of the state of New Jersey.

Irrational, yes. Nobody ever claimed they were rational, though. This is exactly how it's panning out.

Jamie Fox, his living god president and the rest of the famous white haters will be directly responsible for any inter racial wars that will probably begin in the big cities.

These statements by Foxx are a perfect example of why race hustlers and liberals have no credibility whatsoever.

If serving Ritz crackers and cheese at a party is an example of racism, then the meaning of racism is completly diminished and should no longer be talked about.

“As a black person it’s always racial”

And as a white man I’ll always be labeled by liberals as racist.

So, fine. I’m genetically born a racist. My race happens to be the human race. What f***ing species are you?

-——If serving Ritz crackers and cheese at a party is an example of racism———

I think the problem is the cheese. The man and his race in general, are lactose intolerant. He assumes everyone, every hostess, should know many if not all of the black guests suffer from lactose intolerance and can’t eat cheese.

Not an expert here, but I’m pretty sure the ‘lactose intolerant’ CAN eat cheese. Intolerant of cheese would be some kind of allergy that I don’t believe is widespread.

I think he meant to say racist rather than racial. Jamie’s in love with race hate, racial intimidation, racial violence, systematic racial and cultural dominance and segregation. What a blast from the past.
