I know when I play games, and I just talk once they say it. Its retarded because: 1. They say it to act cool, or think there the shiz on a game 2. They would never say it in real life
African-American Slavery is a joke, it was passed on to neighboring countries as a great bussiness chance, for the sole purpose that Africans had been doing it to eachother for hundreds of years. Why not capture people of different country and sell them for money? It's messed up but you have to look at it as a finacial benefit. If I lived in those times I would have felt bad with my current mind set but since I don't, I can't feel bad about it.
ok and after slavery was abolished black people were still treated like sh*t up until a few decades ago.........
Still we are supposed to stay on subject with Black Slavery, but again I wasn't here to influence our black people were treated a few decades ago so I can't really feel bad because I haven't experienced it. I would only show sympathy for African-Americans who went through it.
<span style='font-family:Comic Sans MS'>slavery and racism go hand-in-hand if u support slavery then u r probably racist, no matter who u want to be enslaved. this is kinda off-topic but i just thought about this. a few months ago Dementia had to take down an avatar that looked like the black power symbol but yet "someone" on this site is allowed to have the <a href=\'http://www.infoplease.com/spot/confederate1.html\' target=\'_blank\'>Confederate Flag</a> in his sig..............................the "Black Power" fist means freedom while the Confederate Flag symbolizes racism and slavery the KKK use the confederate flag as there symbol</span>
I'm not sure if what your saying is based off what I said. Slavery and Racism do NOT go hand and hand. Racism can influence Slavery but it's not a capital reason for it, like I said races have en-slaved eachother in history way before African-Americans. A confederate flag doesn't have to apply racism. A black power symbol have more meaning to the thought of a more superiour race. If white people in America today have "white power" symbols we would be called racist. Think about it.
Slavery is wrong. If you were a slave yourself, sure, I'd be more than sympathetic; if not, then STFU about it. If I say "White Power!" and you get offended, then I don't care to hear about "Black Power!" either. I don't care what anyone says, whites and blacks are equally as racist these days.
<span style='font-family:Comic Sans MS'>compare the two <a href=\'http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Power\' target=\'_blank\'>White Power</a> / <a href=\'http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Power\' target=\'_blank\'>Black Power</a> White Power: "As a political phrase, White Power was coined by American Nazi Party leader George Lincoln Rockwell...White Power became the name of the American Nazi Party's newspaper, and the title of a book by Rockwell. Many racist factions — such as white supremacists and certain Neo-Nazis — use the phrase White Power." Black Power: "Black Power was a political movement. It was most prominent in the late 1960s and early 1970s, that strove to express a new racial consciousness among blacks in the United States. More generally, the term refers to a conscious choice on the part of blacks to nurture and promote their collective interests, advance their own values, and secure their own well-being and some measure of autonomy, rather than permit others to shape their futures and agendas." u really think that they r saying the same thing?</span>
Its the same thing if we want it to be the same thing. Why would you say Black Power? Because its going to blow up all the racists in the world? By saying Black Power your just pushing more racist reactions by seperating Whites from Blacks once again. It's like. You call someone Tall, it's not insulting. You call someone a Tall B@stard, it's not insulting. You call someone Black, it's not insulting. You call someone a Black B@stard, suddenly your satan. Stop being so damn prejudice against yourself, I'm not racist, at all. But when I see people on Profiles constantly go "Im a black 22 Male" It's like, and? I dont see all the white profiles going "Im a white 22 Male". Of course this doesn't apply to everyone, but it happens a lot.
