That is both an insult and a sterotype towards whites, much like the word "N*gger" is to blacks.

so why do you think that still whites have that sterotype even still nowadays? that they're racist.

and one thing i always found funny is when whites always say that they're not racist cause they "have black friends" or "do" black things like for example listen to rap. like saying or doing those things are really supose to make me believe so.

like for example myself. i don't have any white friends. not one. i have dozens of friends but not one is white. and i'll say so. or let it be known if someone asks. without the fear. without worrying about whether or not anyone thinks i feel that my race is superior (in any way) to whites because of skin color.

How so? I don't think that my race is superior to any other race.

Because the [so-called] minorities of today, can't let shit that never happened to them, go. Though there's obviously racist White-people, as there are Blacks, Hispanics, Asians etc. today, probably always will be.

Yeah, that is a stupid thing to say, I agree. Though those non-racist white people probably feel the need to say it for the reasons listed above. The stereotype.

Good, you shouldn't have to justify the friends you keep. You are prejudiced towards White-people though, going from the history of your post.

what does he mean by friend.

its clear he doesn't mean aquaintances peers, colleagues, myspace friends or random people he says hi to.

Are there even any white people who share simmillar interests with him in his community.

Here's a question Bardock How many Hispanic friends do you have who count as real friends.

That's not a necessity of racism though.

how do you let go of being stripped culturally early on. how can you let go of the fact that alot of these financial/insurance and gov't institutions that still exist, have benefitted and still do benefit from monies accumulated from the black slavery trade and/or racism. you can't, especialy when they're institutions you'd probably have to cross paths with, as a black person.

The black slave trade generated hundreds of billions of dollars during those years and guess how much that is today with adjustment. Trillions. money did not dissapear and was put to good use. Out of all that money imagine the amount of independant small business and banks and agencies that've opened up back then only to sprout the behemoths that we have now. so it's not that easy to "let go".

And again (and again) i don't hate white people. i really do mean that. i have no reason to lie about that. if i disliked whites i'd say it on here. either way nothing would happen cause i don't care about being villified in here. so whether you believe me or not is your choice. in my heart and mind i know the truth.

But that is what racism means though. That you think you're race is superior in every way to all others. i don't think that way and even if it was it not something i would go trumpting around cause i'm not like that.

That's not what racism means. It's about the stereotyping and separating according to some construct of race. It is often associated with finding ones own race superior, which is probably why you are cofused, but it's not a necessary part of it. Your racism as portrayed throughout your post is not about the superiority of blacks.

Main Entry: rac·ism

1 : a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race.

So no, i'm not confused. It's definetely not what you said it is.

Blacks "owning" the word is a form of self-empowerment. It's the verbal-symbolic equivalent of taking the whip out of the slavedriver's hand and cracking it themselves--not to hit back, but to make the slavedriver take note. It's a statement: "We determine our lives. Not you."

In case you didn't notice, there's a second definition on that webpage.

Ha, selective quoting, there's definitely some sort of joke in that.

you mean the second entry irrelevant to my meaning i was talking about in my disussion? yea, i saw it.

but, since I'm talking about racial superiority. the first entry seemed like the logical pick.

The second definition was the one he was using.

Problem is that my definition is relevant as I used it initially to describe you. So you selecting a meaning that does not apply is just silly and leads to nothing of value.

i don't think so.

like i said it's more of a term of endearment, it really is. (as ironic as it may seem)

hence the term "it's a black thing. you wouldn't understand."

Wait....Does this then gives us muslim-bashing free card for the suffering inflicted upon our ancestors for the past...oh 1000 years or so?

And while you and I are out there b!tching about what people did to our ancestors and other people from other countries in Middle East and Europe that we had nothing to do with, we can bring along FirstOfNorth, and he can ask Arabs why their word for 'black people' is 'abid', which is plural for 'slaves'?
