Many of these people are sustained through elitist ideology and status. They harbor racial hatred against whites due to bad experiences and personal beliefs but in their pursuit to be the cream of the crop in Black America...they also have to find a way to distance them selves from other Blacks, whom they deem to be below them. Ironically, they use the physical characteristics promoted by white supremacy to enhance their fantasies of black "superiority".
Elite Whites do the same thing. They want to preserve their white "purity", privilege and status by objecting to racial mixing....and they look down on "trailer trash" whites and the lower class whites who don't fit into their ideas of proper beauty & culture.
1.didnt say it has no affects on us. its obvious it was america's darkest times. but to blame it completely like you are with your undertonesis laughable.
Co-sign, being black upper-class must be lonely. Prolly why they cling to each other so much. Lost ones.Originally Posted by abeautifulhaze

fresh, looking yourself in the mirror and saying i messed up is harder then pointing a finger at someoneOriginally Posted by ProduccionFrescos
It's always the white mans fault
In my opinion I would have to say slavery. During this period there was a lot going on. But one of the most disturbing and dysfunctional thingsthat have happened to the Black Race is the mixing of races. When slaves saw lighter blacks being treated better, house negros as they called them, itcompletely messed the them up. Also the definition of beauty shown through whites and lighter black women. When it comes to wealth though, Blacks always wantedwhat whites have "always had" and because of the majority of power is held by whites, blacks have tried their darnest to show upper whites that theyare like them, thus needing to seperate themselves from lower income blacks simutaneously.Originally Posted by MaxElite

I never understood this. How do you act like a black/white/hispanic/asian etc......
you have got to be kidding me. that's quite possibly the most absurd thing I've heard this week.Originally Posted by Gordon Gekko 979
1.didnt say it has no affects on us. its obvious it was america's darkest times. but to blame it completely like you are with your undertones is laughable.
2.in your rants, why don't you mention how in the inner city, you're acting white or selling out if you try to educate/better yourself?
3.the reason inner city schools don't receive as much funding is because they aren't good schools....there's a inner city i know of, that receives a crazy amount of funding because it's producing good kids.
4.the crack theory...oh i love that. that is a topic for another day. but please leave my thread with your victim role ;playing self. there's no room for that foolishness. please create a new thread if u want to complain
