In reply to camos
Do you see the amount of white people rioting against the police in the name of BLM??
In other countries you are beaten out and burnt down for being a minority, in the US the majority race joins you, that is something
White people suffering white guilt and conquerors remorse at the moment
In reply to nitro
I thought I was giving you and your kind (like thinking and outlook) a chance to have a real debate and all you could do is respond with right-wing talking points meant to shift blame.
At least, as a juxtaposition, froids and frauds made an honest statement, revealing even once in a while the truth can emerge from such a source.

No brownie points from me.

You should let them know

maybe it is a sign of the trait Casper is talking about?
In reply to JahJah
I am doing quite fine, thank you.
Maybe for Steveo and others, I should have added one word. No Brownie points from me, yet.
My magnanimity can be extended in due course, based on sustained efforts and results.
The One-Sided Nature of Black Forgiveness.
In Charleston, South Carolina, in the summer of 2015. There is great turmoil in the Palmetto state amid cries to remove the confederate flag from atop the State House. America is grappling once again with its racial past vis-à-vis Confederate monuments and whether or not they should be removed.
A neo-Nazi named Dylann Roof walked into the historic Mother Emanuel AME Church and sat through a peaceful Bible study, and, after it ended, killed nine black men and women in the church with an assault weapon. Left the church. Was captured peacefully by police, and taken to Burger King to eat before he was interrogated.
After this horrific racist, terrorist act, members of the shattered families were interviewed and some of them offered forgiveness and mercy to the unrepentant murderer, much as Botham Jeans brother, 18-year-old Brandt Jean, hugged 31-year-old former Dallas police officer Amber Guyger as she was sentenced this week for murdering his older brother.
Dr. Kings strategy was of course much more palatable to moderate white Americans watching the march on Selma and other events where blacks could be seen being beaten, attacked by dogs or hosed, and it moved public opinion in favor of civil rights.
But at what cost? Why do black people always have to be like Rep. John Lewis, whom I revere but who forgave a white racist who almost beat him to death on the Edmund Pettus bridge in Selma? Why must our mothers stand and forgive racist police officers for choking their sons on the sidewalk? Why must we always show our temperance, and goodness, when others take our lives? Why does the forgiveness always seem to go in one direction?
Why Are Black People So Forgiving?
Is this why?
The problem with always asking black people to forgive.
Sellers' sentiment was shared by many corners of black America on social media. Many said black people have been conditioned by years of trauma to reflexively offer forgiveness, especially when the perpetrator is a white person.
The Insanity of White Justice and Black Forgiveness.
Central Parks Black Birdwatcher Betrays All Five Centuries of the Black Freedom Struggle.
Christian Cooper explained himself in the New York Times. He allowed that Amy Cooper (no relation), 41, has suffered enough since the May incident, in that, so far, she has lost her career, her presumably good reputation, and even the damn dog, which unintentionally served as the flashpoint for this whole imbroglio.
Black people are the most forgiving people on earth. Concomitantly, save the Native American, black people are the most defeated people on earth.
In reply to Casper
Very true that's why they temporarily lost most of the continent of Africa and many lives crossing the Atlantic on ships of people who had tricked them into believing they were their friends
In reply to JahJah
Are you feeling unwell?
That made my day.
