Why do we connect things like education, art, science, getting good grades, speaking properly, being polite, and being productive as 'trying to act white?"

So does being black means that you can't enjoy all of things I mentioned above? What of the black people who do like getting good grades and speaking in a proper fashion? Are they viewed as sell outs and Uncle Tom's for wanting to better themselves?

Why do black people think like this?

I have lived in many countries and allways respected there values. but in england or the uk no one seems to respect ours the other day i heard xmas is being band in 3/4 of british compainies. i feel this country is being rediculas. i went to saudi and they dont respect christians and wont build a christian church. however, we have to build muslim churchs and they are going to build the biggest one in the world soon in east london. yet the muslims wont stop till we have islamic law. surley we should do what the saudis do and stop this until they respect our ways.

if my mother's family history is mixed with black, white, and indian and my dad's family history is mixed with black and indian? some people believe that i should just say I am black and get over it, but i don't agree. a lot of people (strangers) think that i am mixed and i do believe that i am mixed. even some of my family members think i look like some other race like asian indian. i don't want to deny any part of me. i dont think it is right to claim some parts of me and not all. i dont want to upset anyone especially my black friends (who considers themselves 100% black) can you please help me?

What does it mean when a black person acts white?
Asian people who come to the USA act white and no ones says anything.
All other brown skinned people who come from other countries come to the USA and act white and no one says anything.
All races who come here act white and no one says anything about it, but when a black american acts white then suddenly it's a bad thing and he or she is selling out their race.

What does acting white mean to a black person?

Why are Dominican women so concerned with their hair?

What are some products that they use to maintain and control it?

Why is having great hair such a big thing among Dominican people?

This girl my class was asking me why do I make a big deal about being mixed and she asked me what does it justify. She said that I talk about it alot and she said that in her eyes I'm just a Black person. I talk about it because I'm proud of who I am and I never have been in touch with my culture.

If you want respect, stop acting like thugs with the "loud" clothing you wear. It looks stupid

is it because he's black. is it because a hes wife was white. or maybe its because they way us blacks reacted when he was found not guilty (which my family and neighbors threw a block party). i dont know if he did or didnt murder those people all i know is how good it felt as a black person and i know yall think its wrong but words can not explain. its how weve been feeling for years and to finally see you people feel unjustified like dave chappelle and master card said "PRICELESSS".

Many BabyBoomers now are in uppermanagement, they got there not because of merit or talent, but because of the following:
1. time served, seniority bases of promotion, not talent
2. they operate under the good old boys network to protect their hide
3. they don't know how to relate to non-whites, in fact they can't look into an asian guys eyes when talking to him
4. they are not "internationally" cultured
5. they look at porn and have extra-marital affairs
6. they were once hippies, and flower children, and spoiled rotten selffish egomaniacs
7. they are very common and typical of the people who spend time watching sports and having a beer belly
8. they are not intelligent, and spend time on the most stupid things

I don't have a problem with it, but seems like alot of americans do.
It's like ok I am supposed to not say anything in Regards to everything else that goes on in this country not going to point anything out but you get the idea.

I get all pumped for Christmas time and I have to say X-mas becasue I can offend someone.

Yet if I complain about what's offensive to me, then I'm intolerant. It's not like Christmas is a year round event.
