when you live in a bad area of town?
like tagging everywhere, no street lights, constant police and murders, violence, and trash everywhere? I can't even walk down the street without someone claiming the street. the worst part is people think i'm involved with it whne i tell them where I live.

noticed that more people are being racist to asians because of the actions of Cho. I personally feel this is wrong, for the whole asian community to be singled out for the wrong doings of one misguided person. Let's say if another Asian person did this, and another asian person. Let's say that asian people get stereotyped for being this way, and then society treats you worse. This would coerce more people to commit the actions of Cho. Pretty soon, society will view Asian people this way. This is how it for black people everyday. They are prejudged by people everyday and yet Asians *MANY NOT ALL*, prejudge blacks all the time despite what has happened to some of them due to Cho's actions. Why, do many Asian ppl open shops in statiscally bad areas, and expect to be treated well? Anyway, how would you feel if YOU were always compared to how the media portrays you? For those that have experienced racims/prejudice over the acts of Cho, you only have a glimpse of what it's like.

I've seen the episode twice on VH1. The first time, i didn't watch it all the way to the end. Then last night, it came on again and i decided to watch the whole thing. Then near the end when she was driving i could tell something was wrong when she looked into the camera with tired eyes. Right then and there, i said to myself, this is it, this is where "it" happens. People have it posted all over Youtube. I don't know if i was the family that i would've released that video, not the end anyway. As much as it sent a chill through my body i couldn't turn away. Anybody else see the documentary on VH1? If you did tell me what you think. And no, i don't think she planned her own death, like some people were saying on Youtube.

Do whites that come from Africa to America (becoming citizens), call themselves African American and what about blacks that come from Europe and become citizens in America, do they call themselves European Americans?

I have this idea for doing something like the old "Guardian Angels" but only the 21st century version.
It wouldn't be the first time I thought of something that already existed. If one dosen't does anyone have any ideas how it could work ?

My school is very cliquey everyone is either a slu t, prep, emo, "wish I was a prep/ sl ut," or rich bratt. I am more of a tomboy in a sense on the outside because emos arents accepted around here even the emos arent really emo. I am I think emo on the inside, I get depressed and suicidal a lot and I am abused and I tried telling a friend but because this is a wealthy area where I live its just not the norm, like in health we were asked if we think people get abused in my town or hit and everyone said no and I was sitting there thinking you are all wrong anyway my entire life I have never fit in anywhere and I have ALWAYS been made fun of, I dont remember a day when I wasn't. Has anyone ever felt like they dont belong and how did they cope with it? Thanks so much

We need to level the playing field.So Affirmative Action is needed.
But Affirmative Action doesn't level the feild but it lowers standards for certian people while keeping them high for white people.

How is this good?

I told him that even though we are hardy stock and well above average IQ in our mostly Irish, English and Native American family the fact that my daughter chose a Black man as her mate contributed greatly to my grandson's physical prowness. I told him that slaves were kidnapped and sold for their strength and coordination and that because of the beginning taboos and laws against inter-racial relationships, his athletic ability was not watered down by a bunch of inbred cousins of massa's. Before you make the assumption that he is all brawn, no brains, he was not only courted and flown all over the country as a Division 1 Basketball recruit, but he made the National Honor Roll Society and had many academic offers as well. So did his father. Full ride, thanks to keeping the best of both races genes. This was in response to a question he asked me some time ago about why most sport stand-outs are Black. That is when I told him the racists were responsible. You will see him on TV soon.

I have a lot of Christian friends who seem really judgemental of minority groups that don't meet their "moral standards", such as gay people. The problem is, I'm quite the opposite. Is it hypocritical of me to be angry of their intolerance?

Please take your time to take the test. It's really crazy. Shows that I have a moderate preference for white people eventhough I feel I'm not a racist/prejudiced by any means! Take it and tell me your results! It was on the Oprah show today.

I've had an observation during my time using Yahoo answers and I have found that to Yahoo, racism is just the kind of controversy they look for to keep folks logging in. There have been many people, myself included, that have had answers violated and accounts suspended for standing up to opression and racism, yet nothing is done to quell the the rampant hatred plastered across a question and answers forum meant to celebrate and educate people from all cultures and communities. Yahoo is glad to feature celebrities and other dignitaries to discuss subjects from the environment to politics, but how many times have they delt with a subject that rests at the heart of conflict in this country, racism? In a way, they condone racism under their "guidelines", but just as the racists are free to have a vioce, so should I be free to silence them. Is racism worth it's divisive nature to allow for the sake of the 1st ammendment? How can Yahoo change our society for the best?

I was wondering if anybody could shed some light on a query I have?. For centuries the public hangman was a person of ridicule and hate, despised by the populace and shunned by all decent folk.
Then by the late 19th century they had almost turned into cult figures, culminating into the Pierrepont dynasty, I’m not entering a debate on the validity of public execution, would just like views as to why the change in concept.
