It is not only the government’s job to improve the future for our children.
It is the responsibility of every Filipino to create a better Philippines for the coming generations. All of us must think about how we can contribute.

Do you think the oppression of black people in America is just a conspiracy. Whether or not, it is very apparent that certain forces are not in our favor, i.e.:
why more blacks incarcerated than any other group?
am i to believe that blacks commit more crimes or are more laws designed to incarcerate blacks. (ex. crack vs. cocaine)
why are blacks economically impoverished nationwide?
true there are poor whites, but it is equated by the number of wealthy whites. Poor blacks to rich blacks is totally disproportionate.
Despite being in this country for over 400 years, why are blacks still fighting for rights that we simply hand over to any immigrant crossing the border?
Its kind of strange that all this is just a coincedence.

In order to aviod confusion im asian.
Alos im sorry if i accidently offend any white people.
Okay the thing that i never understood about white people is that when it comes to things like divorce and stepparenting. They have this let the parents be happy attitude and they allow the divorce to happen despite the fact that they are upset about it. They also say its my parents life and they have the right to do whatever they want and i dont have a say in this.If thye are upset about the divorce why dont they speak out about it. Most of these things would have never happened if the marriage was arranged but then again white people will only marry for love(im sorry if i offend anyone but that made me physically sick)Also white never get close to their stepparents even thought they allow remmairge? Why do whites have lower family ties escpecially lower than asains?Why don'ty whites give arranged marriage a chance?Why cant they pick a life partner? If there upset about divorcing whynotspeak

I ask this question, because i still fee that whites have this superiority complex thing still going on. Do you honestly feel that you are better than other races particularly minorites and blacks. Do you feel that there is a sense of entitlement for just being white. Do you think that other races treat you different because you are white?
I really want honest, intellectual answers...please

I'm from South Texas, and I typically get annoyed at the terrible "texan" accents that people use. I think it's just awful when people listen to George Bush and think that's the way we talk, or like Eastern Southern States. I know there are some people in Western/Northern Texas that draw out their words and say y'all a lot, but not everyone in Texas is like that.

So what do you think of a Southern Texas accent, if you've heard one?

White people are a damn trip. They will quote bible versues and tell you to accept people for who they are, or they want you to believe that "they" are not the one's responsible for the hatered of what their ancesotrs did, but even still today they are playing with fire with some of their idiotic pranks.
Dont white people know that they have to pay for what their ancesotors, just like everyone else. Even today blacks are still psycologically and econmically facing the same challenges of their ancestors. White people have to understand that the legacies and financial prosperity that was acquired by their forefather; they are reaping the benefits today and this legacy has given them a head start over blacks. Black have made strides in education, but what if we had the old money that was left from slavery and handed down throught generation, i know for sure that we would not have any complaints and we would probably be singing the same song as you white people.

I have experienced prejudice and discrimination all my life in the good ole U S of of A. I'll give you some examples. Today, I was standing in line in the deli and there was an asian lady in front of me, I was standing behind her with my cart against the produce waiting for my turn. By the way, I'm asian too. Anyway, this caucasion guy cuts in front of me and asks for some kind of meat, being oblivious that he should have ask me if I was in line. And when he was waiting for his meat, after the asian lady left, it was my turn. He said "Oh I'm sorry, I thought you were with her." I said "You assumed that I was with her because I'm also asian." Then he goes "I didn't say anything about you being asian." I was nodding my head "No".I'm thinking in my head that actions speak louder than words.
The other time I was at the library with my son checking out some books waiting in line. This caucasion lady asks if the kid (who was dark skinned) in front of me was my kid (I'm kinda tan too).
