I'm just curious to know? Because if a racist white brother or sister called me a N*****, I would call them one right back:)
Has anyone ever turned the tables on you like that before?
That would be so neat what do you think?
How would you respond or react? :)

Do you think things are better now or when your grandparents grew up? Has technology...ie. the computer made things better or worse?

example: blacks telling jokes about blacks, whites about whites, hispanic about hispanic etc.....

For myself it seems as I get older the jokes just are not funny anymore. Maybe I should loosen up,but It's not entertaning.

How many jokes can you tell about a ethnic group. Not to mention most of the jokes are based on sterotypes.

Ok..so today at lunch me and my friends were at our table. Now my school has 600 kids, 3 whites, like 25 hispanic/latinos and the rest are black, so my only white friend was sitting with us. Now she's mad cool or whatever but today what she said was kinda insulting.

One of my other friends who is black was singing a Lil' Wayne song and she got to the part where she was about to say the n word and my white friend did it for her.

It was like everyone at my and nearbye tables stopped and everyone was yelling at her, several girls were about to fight them and I was angry as well.

I don't like the n word, I don't use it, I don't really mind when a black person uses it, seeing as we switched it around. But when a white person uses it I do get insulted. So my question is was I, and the rest of the people that got mad, wrong? My white friend seems to think so.

white mother in Texas who drowned her 5 boys a few years back? Do you think she'll get as much leniency for "being insane" obviously as she is, just like the white mom of 5 was insane?

The white woman was Andrea Yates and remember how she drowned one by one, her 5 beautiful boys in her bathtub and initially she was sentenced to death or life in prison, but she got a second trial and was decalred insane. Do you think the Black woman who is also insane will be shown the same sensibility?

Not sure what Andrea Yates' bail was, but this Black woman has a $2Million bond???

It's so sad, so sad.

A teacher said this?? FYI : I am brown not white or black I think most people will agree. My family today was either born in MX or USA. I haved a mixed bloodline just like a lot of people or should i say most. I have french/Spanish/Aztec..My great-great grandfather was french and from my other side of the family another was full spanish, but all lived in MX I might even have some german blood accordingly to my grandmother, but we dont know for sure yet..I have been trying to trace my family roots so I always ask questions and research when i go to MX. Either way in my family wether we look completely white, are light skinned, or have dark brown skin color we still consider us brown or mexican..

I don't watch this show nor taken interest until after watching the local news on a racist slur delivered by Teri Hatcher in one of its episodes about Philippine medical schools.

"Can I check those diplomas because I want to make sure that they're not from some med school in the Philippines."

Some say that us Filipinos should let it pass for it is just a TV show and such comments on different races are made almost every God-given day in pop culture (which I don't agree with and see dumb just to show humor), while some are very sensitive and were hurt by such irresponsible line.

What do you guys think about it? Whether you are Filipino or not.

Here is a question someone asked recently...

mpho the decoder...
"If you could be any race what would it be black, white, asian etc... ?"

Now here is someones answer....

the_prototype...
"I'd be exactly what I am---black. "Say it loud!!!!!!"
"I'm black and I'm proud!---James Brown"

If a white person is boastful like that in his/her answer, they would be called a racist. Double standard?

because of how others perceive you or because you are offended?

Again, if you are Black and you do not support BET, is it due to how others are perceiving us, as a race, or because you are offended by their TV shows, music videos, etc. and feel they do not represent Black?

Reasons:
1. I am not in support of BET because it gives Blacks a bad image.

2. I am not in support of BET because it offends me nor does it represent me.

3. Other.

Please explain if you will. I'm asking because I want to see which is more important to you. Just curious...

I am a 33 yr african american women, and in my travels I have come across many different nationalities and I have been consistantly treated bad by hispanic women, whether it is a business or personal transaction. I was just wondering if I am the only one to experience this. I am a very friendly and out going person. I address everyone with respect and class even after they are disrespectful to me and I don't seem to understand what the issue is. My mother in-law is Panamanian and she is the sweetest person you ever want to meet and she even notices it as well. Can someone help me, I have even considered learning another language to assist with the issue but I am not sure it will help. Any suggestions or answers out there?
