I just found out that my great-great grandmother is full blooded cherkoete (sorry about my spelling) and my mom and myself were very happy that we just found out the name a native american. We are very intersting in native american culture. I am wondering that what can we do to join the tribe and study about them and how they live near Portsmouth, Ohio. I really want to fit in native american lifestyle since I was a little girl.
Thanks

Don't get me wrong I not some crazy freaking idiot. I see videos everyday of how military people in Iraq beat up people even children for kicks, they kill animals, like goats, sheep, cats and dogs for fun when they are bored there. They have no accountabilty for any of their actions. Then there is the whole thinking for yourself thing, which they don't. I mean people really thinks it's a good thing to be in iraq. And then when most come home they act like a bunch of cocky brainwashed jerks, anyone else feel this way or am I going crazy. and I'm suppose to bow down to these people. some maybe, most not.

there are these two guys in my algebra 2 class that fight over who is better. one is african and the other is black. the black guy always calls the african a n....., because is dark, and he always says that he is "black as s...". but the thing i don't understand is they are both dark, just the african guy is darker. but i know a lot of black people that feel the same way about africans, but i don't understand why, since they are part african, and if their ancestors had not have been slaves then they would be in africa and they would be darker, because of the lack fo mixing.

anyway is the normal? i am not saying that all balcks are racists against africans, but do you think it is just their ignorance that makes them hateful or could it be deeper?

please don't take offense to this, and i KNOW all black people aren't like this but many that i know are and i have lives all over the US

By that I mean; power concentrated in the hands of corporations not the government.

Or are we already there?

but as i said, i'm only 15, i don't any money i can give
so what can i do to help?

Sigh...will somebody just write the cable companies to get them to create the (W)hite (E)nter(T)anment channel so that the Caucasians on this site will stop complaining? They could put on shows and videos which depict their race in the best possible and most inspiring light...just like BET! =D

When people say this--
--If we had WET(white entertainment television) ...we'd be racist.
--If we had a White Pride Day... you would call us racist.
--If we had white history month... we'd be racist.
etc

I understand the point but to me it seems kind of a foolish thing to say.
From what I remember, history classes are basically the history of the rich white guy, unless it is specifically history of another group of people. I don't remember ever learning any black history or womens history except in the designated months.

Not just black people watch BET.
You could call almost every other channel "WET" if you wanted to. Don't get me wrong, I love VH1, but you gotta admit, not really geared to young asians.

I read this question

My ancestors came here (US and some to Austrailia) as indentured servants against their will. Poverty was rampant throughout Europe during the early 1700's so they did what they could to survive. Should the ancestors of indentured servants be entitled to reparations or citizenship from the countries they were kicked out of?

I try to respect all people regarless of race, but sometimes it is hard because of things they do. I know that just because one or a few people do something does not mean that all do it.

At the same time, it seems like 90% of them are a certain way. I don't want to specify which race, but they ride their bikes out in front of cars and then get mad when you honk at them, they do not speak proper English, they are often lazy, and use their race as an excuse for everything.

My question is what can I do to not be racist even though every time I see or hear about someone of this race they are being completely obnoxious, rude, and moronic?

How about any compliments that actually offended you instead of flattered you.

Many of you that have Myspace or Facebook accounts have seen the bulletins go up about how if a black man marches for pride in his color, he is brave. But if a white man was to do that, he would be a racist.

I would like to find out from the community if you believe it is possible for white people to be able to take pride in their color without being called racist.

Now, I'm an Austrian. We didn't have African slaves. In fact, over in Austria we don't have much of any racism or prejudice at all. We're all pretty much settled on the fact that people are people and we should all let them do whatever.

Yes, we had the Holocaust and all, but really even the Jewish peoples understand that that is over with and bygones are bygones, and the actions of a few powerful and oppressive men doesn't portray the rest of their kind.

So I say, just because there were white people out there that had slaves, why are all white people being punished for it?
This isn't a hate speech, it's food for thought
