1. Call a Black person “articulate.”
Instead: Because of a long history of oppression, degradation, and dismissal of the talent and skills of Black people, understand that such a statement coming from a white person is often construed, and meant, as meaning “articulate-ness” is something unusual in a Black person.
2. Say “one of my best friends is [black, Latino, person of color, etc.].”
Instead: Ask yourself first: Do you know where that person shops for groceries? Where they go to church? Where they get their hair cut? What their children’s/granchildren’s names are? Have you ever been to their home? These are the things you know about a best friend.
3. Say that the success of [Oprah, Bill Cosby, Michael Jordan, etc.] show that there’s no longer any racism.
Instead: Ask yourself about Madame CJ Walker. She was a millionaire, the first black millionaire, in the early part of the 20th century. Lynchings were still going on. No one would say things were equal then, but she was a famous millionaire. The real question is how many more people like Oprah etc would there be if there were equality?
4. Say that if anyone works hard they will get ahead.
Instead: Understand and accept that this is one of the operative myths of our culture: the meritocracy. Any comparative statistic of all the socio-economic indicators shows that structural inequality is the reality. A lot of people who are working hard are not getting ahead.
5. Say that it doesn’t matter what color Jesus was, it matters what Jesus did, while insisting that pictures of him must be white.
Instead: Consider that if it really didn’t matter to you, we could make him Black.

You cant get along with people like,this. The hypocritical preconceptions they have about you are impossible,to overcome. They want to put you on trial first because theyve already convicted you in their minds.
They think our common sense cautions are racist and irrational. Ours are actually based in fact and time and time again, vindicated. They want the opposite to be true about us, because they are irrational and have nothing to back theirs up, being based in jealousy, covetousness,,and blaming everyone but themselves for,their,own lives.
I hope you’re just pretending not to see the point.
I’m still curious as to why you posted this.
Things to not say to white people.
http://www.diversityinc.com/things-not-to-say/9-things-never-to-say-to-white-colleagues/
The reason this is posted is, hopefully to make FR readers aware of a new black-white convergence that is not quite overtly Marxist. It is, however, very anti-white, but they are smart (besides their degrees), in that they are addressing black social/economic/and racial problems/concerns that the black establishment political machines of Baltimore, Philadelphia, NY, Chicago, Detroit, and Oakland have failed miserably to improve.
Notice that several of the group’s leaders have received George Soros money/grants. That tells you something in and of itself. These people are the “new Marxists” or “Marxist-lites” unifying under the cause of “social and racial justice”.
It is good that someone posted this article because it lets us know that BRJA exists. Otherwise we would never know they exist, like termites, until things began to collapse.
This is part of the new LEFT reforming as the older Communist Party USA dies, the old SWP is gone, and a newer wider national Marxist movement known as the Democratic Socialists of America (Obama, for one, many Democrat members of Congress affiliated with it) spreads like a plague, unnoticed by the mainstream media and even academia.
Black radicals are now emerging in new forms, replacing the long gone SNCC/SCC, Black Panther Party, NBIPP, and the still-born NCIPA.
We also see this convergence between the American Left and the Islamic extremists, esp. on campus thought the Students United for Palestine, with legal help from the old CP front the National Lawyers Guild, and possibly its Marxist child, the Center for Constitutional Rights.
The ACLU is already on the far left at the national level so the communist legal fronts have an outside ally in attacking American security agencies while protecting campus extremists and anti-semites.
If you know what to look for, you’ll begin to understand the threat and take pragmatic action to oppose them. Otherwise, they are under the radar and are winning.
I’m fully aware of this type of race baiting. It is not covert to me.
Perhaps I just assumed most here were aware of this nonsense. I’ve been more than exposed to it and it’s past made me angry. Work in that type of environment for a while and you’ll understand this is complete and total racism towards whites.
I really don’t. If you say that I’m articulate, I’d take it as a complement. You’re saying I can make a logical point in a comprehensible way and provide details on my rationale. I fail to see why it’s some kind of racist dog whistle. And truthfully, I don’t think I’ve ever heard someone call a black “articulate”. So if this is a common thing, I’ve literally never heard it.
Well .. she is .. and she can speak 5-6 languages; plays the piano (gives concerts); and she is enjoyable to listen to.
So .. what’s your problem ..??
I understand one of her languages is RUSSIAN .. and she used to speak to Putin in that language .. that’s why he never messed with GW.
You’re not kidding? You really don’t get the point?
You’ve never heard it probably because it’s so completely out of style, and universally regarded as gauche.
From the late 19th to the mid-20th centuries, it was common to hear well-meaning white people call some particular black person “articulate.” Eventually, it dawned on people that it was condescending and insulting.
Suppose I said, introducing CyberAnt: “He is a non-alcoholic Irishman.” (Or whatever kind of non-alcoholic you are.)
You would take that absolutely at face value, as a pure, undiluted compliment that implied absolutely nothing.
Riiight.
I guess not .. OK Mr. Genius .. what is YOUR point ..??
So, I can expect that the next time you are introducing Clarence Thomas, you won’t be saying: “It is now my pleasure to welcome to our stage Justice Clarence Thomas, an articulate member of the Supreme Court”?
Well, I don’t use that word to describe anyone .. but I don’t see it as bad .. if the person is a really good speaker ..?? That’s all I’m saying.
I know how the LEFT uses it to denigrate people of color .. but it’s not effective if the person really is “articulate” .. as Rice and Thomas surely are.
#1: Vote DemoRat, instead we can support our military veterans.
This article shows that just about EVERYTHING the BRJA thinks and believes is nonsense. Rather than address the self destructive aspects of black culture they choose to hide behind victimhood and racism to excuse their own failings.
In some cases the depth of the psychotic delusion of libtards needs to be monitored. In that sense the article is useful so in this case we should take note.
I spent my early decades as a “liberal”. Not as left as David Horowitz’ formative years. I remember too well the frame of mind that starts with, “Are there ‘other ways’ of looking at things?”. The answer is, “Yes, there are!”. It took decades to realize the rest of the answer, “...and many of them are delusionaly psychotic.”
Well, it’s true that a couple of my best friends are black. Haven’t seen either one in a while, but I know what they’re doing. And they’re not my black friends, they’re just my friends.
