She's tired of suppressing herself to get along.
She needs to learn a valuable lesson. That being:
You’re black and I don’t give a crap. Try identifying yourself as a person instead of an “African-American” and you might start getting somewhere.
This nut thinks others are ignorant?
Rotf lol
Trapped in her identity. How sad and small.
Civility requires restraint. We don’t see restraint with liberals.
Put another way - it’s finally ok to admit she hates white people.
Sounds like she has a classic case of “Failure to Integrate.”
Channon Christian and Chris Newsom, Knoxville.
Anyone think this author heard about THAT?
I’m tired of suppressing myself for racists and bigots.
I wonder would she feel the same actually living in the hood and getting her butt robbed, raped, car-jacked by her fellow racemen.
“I longed to crawl to my tiny black universe.”
Sounds like she never left it. She didn’t want a “conscious conversation” so much as an abject white guilt apology.
She views the entire world through the eyes of race.
If you substituted black for white and white for black in that essay, you’d think she was a white supremacist.
She is a bigot and a racist.
Blacks are all for diversity as long as everyone else agrees with them.
Wow...this is so ignorant on so many levels I don’t know where to begin.
What she doesn’t realize is...she’s a racist. She sees the world through her “black” point of view and can’t understand non-blacks. Just MAYBE the light bulb should go off and realize she’s buying into a load of crap. It’s NOT because these other people are ignorant it’s because SHE IS - believing a bunch of nonsense, along with “my people” and “my culture”...yeah, I know, it’s wrong of you to “act white” right? Maybe this black culture you’ve immersed yourself in does you no favors at all. Please, go to Africa - go and see your “history” and “your kind” - she won’t like what she sees, they’re nothing like her.
Poor thing.
“I dont talk about what happens every 28 hours a black person is killed.”
By whom?
She sounds like an educated young woman. I am sure she would be welcome to immigrate to the black utopia of Freetown or Acra.
And what I saw in Ferguson was a bunch of people protesting for the right of black thugs to attack and murder white people. I heard nothing about black on black violence.
Poor victim.
Hey baby, there’s nothing wrong with segregation if that is what YOU want. Some people are mixers and some aren’t. Peace, baby! Don’t let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya.
FWIW: Isn't "Priscilla" just about the whitest name there is?
What a loon! No one cares. Get over it, move on and live your life free from your hostility woman!
Michael Brown was a lowlife criminal who attempted to kill a policeman. Does THAT resonates with Priscilla Ward?
The original story put out - 'racist cop kills totally innocent black child' was a lie. A LIE...
Michael Brown was a bully with a mean streak. Did you see the video of him strong arming the small clerk in the store he had just robbed PRISCILLA?
You're lucky your roommates didn't tell you that... I have no idea how they could live with someone who glorifies criminals. Yes, that means YOU Priscilla. That said - "empathy & understanding" - a two way street. I'm stunned Priscilla that you would think your role in life is to receive understanding without ever considering the possibility that you also are expected to GIVE understanding.
