Ive been on answers by yahoo for a short while and Ive read some answers and comments that alot of people have said to some questions whne it comes to race and when we talk about black people. Some people can sound so ignorant and nasty when they describe what they feel about black folks. As a African American woman I do take offense to that. Yes this is a free country with free speech, but people should take a minute to think before they speak when they are making their statements. Not all black people are lazy, or criminals or on welfare. There are alot of hard working ,educated blacks out there that do very well in society. They get constantly harrassed for everything and dont get no break.. Please think before you speak!!!!

This world will be a much better place when people realise that external qualities are not what makes us unique. I don't think i'll ever understand the mentality of being able to judgements based solely on other people's differences. There are so many lazy, smart, ignorant, criminal, educated, unemployed etc people who are black, white, yellow.
Martin Luther King = Black = Good
George W Bush = White = Bad :)
No but seriously, when there's so many other issues we should be concentrating on as a common goal for a better world, the world politics use race to side track us so they can push their own agenda with no objections from the ppl

i became instructed as quickly as that Josh Homme became a fag by way of fact he remixed "What What in the Butt" on Tosh.O. somebody actually had to hold me decrease back. i'd have accomplished something loopy. BQ: do no longer very own any BQ2: Yepp BQ3: I purely have been given over one BQ4: It relies upon on what he's into. If he likes hip hop (truthfully what all mainstream music looks at the instant) i'd advise advance Hell by using (Hed) P.E. BQ5: stability BQ6: Chris Cornell, Layne Staley or Josh Homme. BQ7: i think of it is pathetic.

You are correct in what you say. Many dark skinned people have made a positive change in US society.
Many questions receive distasteful and provocative answers but most diversely different minority people seem to cop the most abusive comments.
My advice would be to ignore those answers and try to just read the positive ones.
You are enitled to answer back.

It's not just black people ... it's everyone and everything. I would say that over 50% of the people that use Yahoo Answers are young teenagers who ask ridiculous questions, or stupid adults who don't have a job.

It may just be the nature of the people answering the question. Sometimes, people don't think about how they're answers could affect other people. This is one of those topics that seems to be graced by a majority of these people.

I think that you just answered your own question; considering that "ignorance" connotes lack of personal experience and therefore, lack of understanding. I wonder if those who hold these misconceptions know many black people.

You choose to be offended by such ignorance. Just as we choose to speak, we choose to feel.

Many probably feel that they must degrade others to build themselves up or make themselves look/feel good about themselves.....I think that can easily be labeled with low self-esteem.
