As a black man living in white America, we can all agree that I am owed A LOT. Not just for my heroic survival of slavery but also for surviving RACISM. What are some ways that this can be made up to me and all noble african america heroes of america? Not just the usual money (most of us are rich cause we are business geniuses, legendary athletes, and amazing geniuses). And not just sexual rewards (believe me, we don't need any help getting white girls). Can you think of any way?

If anybody is racist, I think it is people like "you." I am so tired of people like "you" that complain about how mistreated they are and think that the world owes them everything on a silver platter. "Your" type bring it on yourself. It makes me wonder if "you" enjoy it. We don't owe "you" anything.

You want to be rewarded for your ethinicty? For what happened to someone else? You were a slave? What more do you need to be paid if you are already a rich, ingenious, legendary sexual athelete? Im not trying to downplay anything you have experienced as a result of racism, but they are other things that the general public think is perfectly acceptable to discriminate against. Lets give repartations to all the gay people too. Chances are are never hear the "N" word when are you in a crowded room. Think about all the times I've had to hear the word ******, what about the problems Ive had in the workplace with sexual harrasment. Has someone told you that you were going to hell for being black? How would you feel if they made a constitutional ammendment banning black or interracial marriages. Of course they wouldnt do such, unconstitional! If someone is a racist biggot they are morally aprehensible. If they hate fags they are a solider of god? What you see on Real World is not the case. Ask any "real" gay person and they will tell you how sucky life can be.

I'm betting that you were fortunate not to be alive when the worst of the racism was going on. So how would YOU put a price on a black man chained to a tree and mercilessly beaten to death, how would YOU put a price on a black family hung by the neck from a bridge. What price would YOU call fair for a young man black man whose private parts were spiked to a shed floor, he was given a knife and the building was set on fire. The black folks definitely have suffered at the hands of white supremest, but there is no debt to pay here, it was just a part of the ugly,obscene History of these two peoples. You did touch on a solution though, as you say, you are "noble black", as such you should be able to forgive ( don't ever forget!!) the transgressions against your people and move on to be the very best at what ever it is that you do. You also touched on doing well financially, which is a testament to the millions of downtrodden, oppressed black people who swore in their song that "we shall over come!" No small feat of which you as a "Nobel Black" have every right to be immensely proud!! Good luck to you!

Your first sentence is the most popular racist comment against black people that every black person says. Ironic, right? It's weird because a lot of black people think the world owes them all the riches of the world.

But think about this: does every jewish person say the world owes them for the holocaust? No. And that was more messed up in my opinion because the Nazis were actually trying to kill off all Jews. They got about 7-9 million. And what did the Jews do? They fled where they could and remained very close to each other and proliferated all over the world. Now it's a common stereotype for jews to be rich and tight with their money.

All southern white people wanted was cheap or free labor. Sure they treated most slave like crap, a.k.a. like slaves, but it's still goes on today in China and nobody says anything. You're actually supporting slavery if you shop at WalMArt, Target, Old Navy, the Gap, Nike, etc.etc. Everything from WalMart and Target, the 2 leading retailers of the world, have EVERYTHING made in China, paying their workers a few dollars a week and work them 16-20 hours a day, seven days a week. With WalMart, the average factory worker makes 100 bucks a month and WalMArt 'rents' the dorms they own to the factory workers for 60 bucks a month, but here the catch. Living in the dorms in mandatory. They can't move out...well technically they can move out, but they will STILL be charged that 60 bucks a month for the dorm.

I don't say this as being racist or prejudice. Far from it, in fact. I see one color, red. The red from our blood, which is the same color. What I am saying is how are black people supposed to move on when they keep throwing the slavery card and the racists card every-time they come upon an obstacle? It's like the boy who cried wolf. The slavery thing has lost all meaning.

The black people that ARE successful are aware of the slavery issue, but when presented with an obstacle, whether it's racist or not, they persevered to achieve and didn't give up. I see the slavery issue like the crutch that black people still use when they don't get their way. As I said, it was a really messed time for black people when slavery was around, but if black people want to be best they can be, stop dropping the slavery bomb. Make yourself a better person by overcoming your own obstacles, not by rehashing the same old ones over and over and over and over and over and over again.

There is a lot of messed up stuff happened all over the world everyday. We're destroying our planet with CO2 emissions and drilling out the last of oil left. We're fighting a war on 'terrorism' when in fact, we are the terrorist. The US is only 4.5% of the global population, yet we consume 30% of the earth total resources. The US is like 9 trillion in debt and the average America is like 30 grand in debt from house mortgages and credit card debt. More than 30 million people have died from AIDS. AIDS is about to wipe out Africa as we speak and it's only a matter of time before the Avian bird flu or some similar disease the earth is not ready for will wipe out a third of the global population. All of the stuff goes on, and our stupid President just want oil. Bush is constantly cutting education and health care funds across the board while adding billions for the war effort, putting us way further in debt. You want something to worry and ***** about? Pick one.

We don't owe you anything. Sure slavery was wrong but YOU were never a slave! Stop complaining about something that you have never experienced. Do you honestly think that blacks were the only people who were treated badly in the past? What about the Irish, who were only hired to do the dangerous jobs no one else would do? Or the Native Americans who were slaughtered when they were here first? And as far as you having to deal with racism, I don't want to hear it. Ever heard of affirmative action? That's where you are getting repaid whether you deserve it or not. My family had experienced that first hand. My dad interviewed for a job and was perfectly qualified for it but along comes another guy who was not as qualified but got the job simply because he was black. So stop your whining. YOU are the reason that racism exists in the world. And quit bragging about how many white girls you can get. We are not trophies for you to win. And another thing...you all get a whole freaking month for Black History Month! When do I get to celebrate Hungarian History Month or Romanian History Month? How can you repay me? Here's a suggestion...just shut up.

Your conceit is beyond belief. H e l l no, you don't deserve anything more. You have the same opportunities I had - in fact, when you and I attended the same classes in high school, you were the one who always f u c k e d around instead of using what was obviously a very competent brain to study and to learn. My great-great grandfather owned black slaves - but I never did, so I don't owe you a penny in compensation - and since over a quarter of a million white men died in the American Civil War giving your slave ancestors their freedom, any debt owed you has been paid in full! More than fifty thousand free black men joined the Union army during that war and helped end slavery. Take a lesson from them - get to work and EARN what you need to get you through life. I'm sure the h e l l not going to just GIVE it to you! My life ain't been no bed of roses either...

Oh yes, I can think of a way. My ancestors owned one of the largest Plantations in the South. They owned many black slaves.I don't believe that it is possible that you could have ever been a slave....or maybe your the "Noble Black Messiah" come to save his children...No one owes you anything. You owe your ancestors a heap of gratitude for getting through it all and bringing the NOBLE BLACK PEOPLE to where they are today. They didn't look for handouts. They were proud to own their own land, work their own land, just to work. Earn their living, be free-like Everyone should be. You know what I think, I think that we oughta open those big plantations and send all of you bitchers back and see what your ancestors really went through.
I am so sick of all your bitchin and whinin. Get off your *** and get a job, be responsible for yourself and your family. I think that your biggest reward would be to quit living the life of looking for handouts-whether they be white girl ******* or welfare or medicaid. I'm so sick of hearing all the NOBLE BLACK CHildren yell out to the postman..."Where's my check?" You guys teach your children from birth to expect nothing from themselves and to expects everything from everywhere else. White America????It's Looking to me that "White America" is soon to be a think of the past. With all of the illegal aliens coming across the borders, and all other races that make up our country.....there are ALL colors here-most have skin a little darker than white. Racism??? I've met very few black people here that are not racist themselves. Doublestandard!!!! You are owed nothing but the right to be free, work and provide for yourself!!!! I certainly don't think that you are an example of a NOBLE BLACK MAN. Anyone that is truly noble is owed nothing.
He is the commander of his own domain and destiny. If you can't make anything of yourself on your own without "special help" due to your magnificent blackness---go somewhere else.
By the way...would you like the address to the plantation, ? We'd be happy to have you!

excuse me but where do you get off saying that white people owe you? yes it was wrong what they did, but the past is past. the only way to be excepted is to not bring up what has happened. yes its sad that you had to deal with racism, but everyone at one time or another has to deal with it or worse problems. nothing needs to be made up to you. what about Hitler killing all those innocent people? there are other people that are rich and business geniuses, legendary athletes and amazing geniuses. they are not all black. and where do you get off saying that white people owe you when you talk about getting white women? this was just an inappropriate and unnecessary question.

Are you kidding me? Alright, YOU WERE NEVER A SLAVE, and I NEVER OWNED A SLAVE. Therefore I don't owe you anything. Black people also seem to forget that other black people SOLD them to American slave owners, so go look to them for your apologies. Every ethnicity has probably been inslaved by someone else during the history of human kind, you are no exception. Why don't you just appreciate the fact that you live in one of the greatest countries to ever exist, and that your ancesters helped build it? I think that is reward enough for the toils of "your ancesters". I don't see anyone in Africa making $50 million off a rap album or a basketball season.
