Somewhere I heard that mixed children are very talented. I need some proofs. Maybe there are some very talented mixed people? :)

My wife is black and I am white. The problem is her mother's side of the family. When my wife is with them, she becomes, for a lack of a better term , ghetto. But, when she is with her father's side, they act more like normal society; ie. dignified and with couth. Thanksgiving was a nightmare for me. Her mother's side started telling white jokes at the dinner table and then after, put in a DVD of a comedian who went on for over 30 minutes "cracker bashing." Her father just recently moved out of state so we are stuck with her mother's side. I begged her not to commit us to Christmas dinner with her mom, but to no avail. I tried to express my feelings, asking her how she'd feel if she were with my family and they started telling "*** ger" jokes. She said she understands, but insists on putting me through this again. Any help on this ratially insensitive group would really help me. It's causing quite a strain on our relationship.

Was curious to see what everyone,... that celebrates that is,... has planned for Christmas and New Year's Eve? My family is going to go to step-son's house for Christmas this year. Which is a big change. I usually get stuck cooking all of Christmas dinner so it will be nice to not have to do it for once. I am hoping to go to casino for New Year's but still got to sweet talk hubby into that. :)
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all! :)

Older teens to people in their young 20's have always been the ones to start the new ways of thinking, behaving, getting along. Like the hippis. But all we do is act like a bunch of mindless robots and do what the media tells us to when we should be rebelling against the old ways of life and stereotypes that people try to impose on us. why don't we fight these stereotypes and create our own ways of thinking?

My previous questions have been met with angry rhetoric but no accurate facts or resources to explore the issue.

Who has the presence of mind to do so?

civil rights leaders do it all the time,,,,, but if you point out racism from a minority group esp latinos or blacks they will call you a racist pig for generalizing,,,about THIER ignorance,

I asked a question about the racist mentality prevelanbt in the latino community towards whites(which there definatley is),,and all I got back was people calling me ignorant and racist with nothing interesting or factual


is it ignorant to call out the white community on thier ignorance,,,NO IT'S ACTUALLY PRAISED,,,so what is the deal here

Racial groups have come along way since the days of our ancestors (slavery, lynching, segregation) but in today's time there still lies an ounce of animosity between different races. What's the root? Is there true justification to like one race less - or are we holding onto the past and keeping ill feelings within the limits of what the law will allow?

I know that alot of you "eco-warriors" are going to throw all this data at me and try to make this look like a stupid question, but hear me out.
Is it really global warming or just a phase? After all, in the 1970's scientists were certain that the earth was cooling down to the point that they said we were on the verge of a new ice age. I even hear alot of scientists, when confronted with the issue of the end times state that the earth is only going through one of it's natural stages. What do you feel is the real story? Input from all sides are welcome.

I'm not 'hoodish' in anything that I do. I don't consider myself stuck-up but I do think I'm classy. Why do people frown upon this as if its a sin that I don't speak Ebonics, have a babydaddy and have high standards when it comes to the men I date and the people I socialize with. Does anyone else experience this problem?
