Re: Mafree...so many unchallenged comments...until I go to bed of course...now, she wants to respond to all of my posts LOL.

...and not all that cleverly.

Well, here is what happened last night. Halle Berre won an Oscar for best actress. At about post 1750, not one person said that HB didnt deserve the award. But, may on FR thought her acceptance speech was a cowtow to the racialists that pervade the black leadership in this country. The Jacksons, Gumbles, Meeks, etc etc. Many agreed she mad a blithering fool of herself by implying that HB herself had just broke a barrier. Of course the only barrier set up are the self-imposed barriers of the art of acting and selecting movies that warrant consideration.

Many actor and actress had put forth great performances only to have exquisite competition in a particular year and not win the Oscar. Consider some of the astounding movies like Apollo 13 that didnt even win Best Picture...and many performances by Streep, Dentsch, Mirin, Fonda, Stewart etc,,,,,and yes Denzel Washington. Halle hadnt put forth a performance to even rate in these categories unti this year,,,,,,and viola she wins Congratulations to her and I am proud of her,,,,,but her acceptance speech talks of barriers of racial grouping which dont exist in this country any longer, especially none so exist in the Hollywood Left. Shame Halle...to compare yourself to Jackie Robinson, Rosa Parks and the schoolhouse crew from Brown vs Bd of Ed....shame shame shame.

...and indeed shame on Mafree for holding on to such "barrier" and race beliefs that exist only as powerholds on other black constituents and free people. 4shame!

Shame on you for thinking that my beliefs on race hold me back in life. I have a Bachelor's degree, a job, 2 cars, 3 computers, and many accomplishments in life. Being Black hasn't prevented any of that from happening has it?

Yes - and here's my two bits: Blacks in the USA need all the political traction they can find -- Whether it's a popular internet thread or the spotlight at the Oscars.

They need to make all the noise they can to promote the stereotypical White/Black perception of race politics in America.

The perception of Blacks as the 'most favored / majority-minority' in this country is still being promoted by the National Socialist Democrats and their minions, but the future will wash over them like a Brown tidal wave.

It is amazing to me, and convenient for them (B/W race-baiters), that Hispanics are officially recognised as "Whites"!
