i am not at all racist...i am even native america, apparently white people see us as the lowest of the low, and most of my friends are black because they just are more chill and down to earth and i only make friends with those that interest me.
but i can totally see it ur way, and in fact a lot of my black friends see this going on as well.
some things i have noticed are like, it seems every month is black history month. what about al the other cultures in america? what about MY culutre, native indian where my ancestors who were here FIRST were killed off and our land stolen...wheres my history month? the blacks had it rough for a few hundred years, but my people were killed off in genocide! look at the jews, they have been persecuted for thousands of years, even now, and they still get up and make a life for themself.
i do kinda get weary of seeing all black colleges, BET (black entertainment channel in which i love btw heehee), and other things that are labeled black this black that.
but what if we had a white college, a white entertainiment channel etc? omg the nation would be in an uproar!
and i do get offended when i see this stuff.
then they call us racist. once i worked in a bank and was like the only white girl for miles around,. well with my personailty they loved the hell out of me, but in the beginning, they looked at me with the most wary evil eyes and it scared me bad, even the customers in which were all black as well, they would always accuse me of being racist if i asked for ID and such which is something that is done only to protect THEIR identity, it got to the point i just got an attitude right back and was like, 'oh i dont even wanna hear it!'
i do feel hurt when i am reffered to by my black friends as 'white girl' because i would neer say to them, black girl.' (even i would probably get beat up if i did).
but anyway, it is a great culture, i just wish that they could leave the past in the past and keep it moving.
the same resources that are avalible to whites are available to them and if they choose not to take it well thats on them, and that goes for every race.
also it is kind of hard though for some to trust black people. i live in the italian section of south philadelphia and all day on the news u see stories of shootings rapes and crimes, and sadly its all done by black suspects. they kind of put that name out there for themself, sadly to say and i do feel unconfortable saying this, but it is the truth.
i was robbed once, it was a black man.
my auntie was held by knifepoint in front of her own home, by a black man and 3 years later was raped and shot in the back of her head when she was pregnant, by a black man in her own home by a robber.
i always see girl fights on my block and its all black girls.
its really a shame.
