There is the Music, The language, Lifestyle, Beautiful Black Women and fashion. There is Art, Sports, and Technical abilities. There is strength, Comedy and the Work ethic.
Why do I feel that all I hear are negatives about my race.

Music, yes. Language, no. Lifestyle, no. Women, yes. Fashion, yes. Art, no. Sports, yes. Technical abilities -- are you joking? Strength, yes. Comedy, yes. Work ethic? HA HA HA!
"Educated", your delusions are a real hoot! Can't wait for black people to "take their just place" as rulers of the world.

Probably because you are not listening. If one out of 100 is a bigot, you are going to meet a bigot every day, yet that is only 1%. I am sure that the number of bigots is less than 1%, yet they learned their lessons from history well by trying to be the squeaky wheel.
Perhaps when you learn to listen to the good as well as the bad, or better yet, ignore the bad, then you will realize that there is very little racism left in America. Then you will be able to let your racism go away too.

this is coming from a white person so my answer might sound a bit racist. But I would have to say .........No. White people have a sense of entitlement. where as most of the black community have just that, a sense of community. They share knowledge and culture and their only derivatives of diversification stem from that. Where as white people assimilate the music art and culture of others (read steal) and diversify it only enough to call it their own. Sorry if that offends some of you other crackers but that's my opinion.

It has been my experience that when we here in the West appreciate the contributions people have made to society we are color blind as to the race of the indivdual who created it. We just marvel at what the person or persons have done.
We don't bother to think that they may have been black, white, yellow or brown. Or for that matter gay or straight, as the issue has now been raised in California. what they are is not what matters, only what they did to better society, that is all that matters.

Because it is all you apparently choose to hear.
Those characteristics and contributions are not unique to blacks however, and frankly, people like Plato and Shakespere have contributed more to Western life than others.

Maybe if the thousands of people out there (Paladin or Kingstubb) would take the time out and dry off, from the sea of Ignorance they bathe in everyday. They would realize that all HUMAN LIFE on this planet originated from Africa (black people) and the greatest civilations in the History of Humanity were great people of colour. This is a proud and great race but only through punishment (check your bible) and the changing of the tide we find ourselves as being the tail and not the head. But take heed my friends...one day soon we will rise again and take our just place.
