100 Years Ago Today, Ota Benga, A Black Man Held in the Bronx Zoo as ‘Missing Link,’ Ended His Life

so am i to take that to mean that you arent "interested" in these topics?

Why yall so mad in here? At everything but what a normal person would find upsetting about this thread. It's astounding.




Performance artists Guillermo Gómez-Peña and Coco Fusco started their “The Couple in the Cage” tour five hundred years after Christopher Columbus’ arrival in the Americas. For two years, they travelled through various Western metropolises, presenting themselves as undiscovered Amerindians from an island in the Gulf of Mexico that had somehow been overlooked for five centuries. They called their homeland Guatinau and themselves Guatinauis.



The Couple in the Cage documents the travelling performance of Guillermo Gómez -Peña and Coco Fusco, in which they exhibited themselves as caged Amerindians from an imaginary island. While the artists’ intent was to create a satirical commentary on the notion of discovery, they soon realized that many of their viewers believed the fiction, and thought the artists were real “savages”. The record of their interactions with audiences in four coun tries dramatizes the dilemma of cross-cultural misunderstanding we continue to live with today.

Maybe I'm wrong but this might be a case where the messenger is a barrier in terms of the actual message getting across.

Op has had a track record on here according to some members so sometimes the actual message he tries to get across gets lost in translation due to that. He hasn't posted threads in a while, but that usually seemed to be the case whenever he would in the past.

what does that even mean?

my "reputation" is based off ppl complaining they dont like race threads

the "blame" goes to those who complain

anyone who "ignores/has a problem with" my topics simply because I posted, is to "blame"

the problem isnt me

I think Rusty posted it before, it might've been someone else. But for the most part, people don't mind race threads on here. It's moreso that they mind seeing them posted by you. A lot of the threads you've made in the past tend to get the same type of responses.

Personally I could care less about the threads. It's way more counterproductive stuff posted in general that doesn't get the scrutiny your threads tend to get whether that's fair or not.
 
man whatever if ppl got a problem with me on that level i have a pm box

this "fake outrage" over my threads is so facetious

ppl on here have a problem talking about race AND they have a problem when i talk about it

its that simple
 
saw this posted on fb and thought "wonder if H2H is going to make a thread about this today"
:lol:
i have a question why the **** did you feel it necessary to make a thread of this?

if you want a list of atrocities white folks have committed i got a loooooooong list for you.

you can make a new thread every second.
I think we should just make a GIANT thread called "white folks atrocities thread"
And everything they do wrong can go in that thread :nerd:
I'm serious btw
Anything they do or have done can go in there
H2H what u think???
Official "Thoughs?" Thread
You know @sckid20 gonna eventually make this thread :rofl:

There's a ****** zoo in China right now.
A whole damn town/village.  

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_the_Little_People
That actually sounds cool. If I was a ******, I'd want a place like that to live in. I saw pictures and the architecture is so different it really looks like some village out of a fairy tale. Plus it's probably close to impossible for a ****** to approach a regular sized girl. This way you got all the ****** biddies in one area.

All the regular sized people visiting all the time would make me feel like a circus act though.

You aren't a victim a of your reputation.
Why does this being posted seem to bother some folks?

I dont think anyone is bothered. I am especially not bothered.

I was unaware (but not surprised) of this, so it was informative to me.

The issue that i have, and many others may have, is that the OP continues to post 'race threads' over and over (i appreciate the subject) but offers nothing of substance that is of his own.

take this thread and the original post, he copy and pastes something, then just says "thoughts?"

many if all his threads are like that.

A new meme makes its rounds on the internet, OP grabs it, and says "thoughts".... it comes off disingenuous which many others seem to also recognize.

so again, OP is not a blameless victim to his reputation.
