Other - Cultures & Groups - January 2007

I grew up in a community that what pretty mellow when it comes to accepting other people's cultures. My brother is required though to take an ethnic class at his university and I was not. I think that is a good thing, but do you think the reason the university makes him take the class is because maybe racism is bigger than we think?

I am very sad. I am a 22 year old white female. I have always gone to the Martin Luther King Jr Parade, and participated in other events which were sorrounded by the civil rights movement. The sad thing is that when I go to the parades, I never see other whites there. I have wondered why. Many of the whites want to take advantage of the Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday by not going to work, or school, but not once do they think to participate in the MLK activities.

Fellow whites, why do you do this? Do you think that MLK day is not important? Don't you realize that not only did MLK bring about changes for this country, but helped us all realize that we can all live together equally. However I see many whites at other parades, and activities. But it's like they believe that MLK day is only for blacks. However many people benefited from this, including blacks and whites. What do you think?

For example

" Why do black people always give me the evil look? ''

" Today I was on the train and a black lady just kept on looking at me like I was some type of alien, why are black people so stuck up? "

I just hate it when people write those type of questions, don't you?

A black lady could of done it, a whitte lady could of done it, a green lady with orange triangles could of done it, so how come when a black person does it " it's such a problem " ?

I swear some people just need to get laid.

anybody have the opinion that new yorkers, and people who live in new york and the people who have lived in new york for years are not where it is at, and maybe even retarded, they seem not to allow communication with others, all the arabs who own businesses here, but we are discouraged from really speaking with them, and other people, we are told "Buzz off" does that mean they do not like our stomachs, Buzz off, means they do not want us to have our stomachs? So what is with the irish and italians in new york city, they are, or seem to be very and i say very unfriendly, they really do not have a right to tell us who to communicate with, isn't that right,or maybe it is the democrats, who do not want us to talk with anyone, but this is a very unpleasant city, i would like to leave soon, very soon, they are too depressing, does anyone have similar experiences , of course i do not expect the irish to be cordial, or friendly, the irish are, seem to busy trying to get us in trouble,

I was reading an article where this guy described that antisemitism was natural compared to racism which was a product of ignorance. I have nothing against Jewish people, and I actually would enjoy meeting some. So how can I hate someone that I don't even know? I think they are just people like the rest of us. What do you think?

Both men obviously dedicated their lives to advancing their race. While the media martyrd him after his death, King during his life was best known as a trouble maker and incited many, many riots. Martin Luther king had very close ties to comunism and was said to be a commie, Hitler was a socialist to the core. Both men wanted to further his race at any cost and didn't care about the other races what so ever. Both men were very good speakers and fooled many people into doing their bidding. While King is often portrayed as a peace maker, recent documents are now showing he had a deep contempt and hatred for Jews. Hitler well he sort of did too. What do you all think?
