i appreciate your supreme sacrifice of dating a beautiful woman. i am not sure how that fits into the topic unless it a trophy statement. i have always found trophy women to be high maintenance.
as to white flight have not had that in 40 years. actually the reverse is occuring, yuppies are coming back to some cities. and without kids bek everybody is getting divorced.
as to detroit. its got problems, like NO, atlanta, memphis. dirty laundry stuff brother dont put in on white folks. it don't belong there. if there are no white folks around its not a racial problem is it? i thought the white folks were the problem, they gone why isn't it better.
as to rap music, #1 consumer of rap and hip hop are white folks.
i have a dream.
fyi i am non white and no stranger to the ghetto.

I'm willing to bet that the number of blacks looking to get away from the things that drag them down are just about equal to the number of whites who are looking to do the same. The difference may be that blacks are less able to escape that environment than whites. Blacks have always been held down. I mean, C'mon! Most of us came here of our own free will for the sake of a more promising life. No impeidments, no boundries, everything wide open and limited only to our imaginations! Most blacks came here against their will. Bonded into slavery and servitude, bought and sold as property. No one can dispute that! Blacks have never REALLY had the same opportunities that whites have had. Mr. 248's accurate observation and understanding of humiliation whereas it bonds both sides, is a true statement of what will set us free......

I wonder why so many people don't want to believe all of that. It does make sense.

Black females are the most bitter. I guess they are mad becuase I got tired of "saving myself" for this non existent black knight in shining armor and just decided to get a knight wearing what ever color God chose for him.
Fofr your self to be black, you sure have a LOT of damn nerve stereotyping the women of your own race because I am for DAMN sure not bitter.

Most of you are just ignorant.

Have you never gone to the D and hanged out with black people? I am smooth with 1 black person. But if you add 5 more black people. I will get jumped, beat up and mugged. Just because I am white.

The truth is as an individual a black person will want to escape this horrible environment. But as a group, they do nothing but keep themselves in that horrible situation. Sell drugs, get criminal records. And while on the short term sellings drugs is a good way to get money, long term its not near as good an idea as going to a collage and getting a diploma, even a community collage.

The truth is if you went into the hood with your "stuck up", looking down on black people attitude, you yourself would get beat up. Infact you would be better of saying your racist and chances are you might get some respect then.

Talk all you want about racism but it sounds to me like you haven't been on the streets and actually lived there.

If I am out minding my own business with my family, and suddenly when it is apparent who I am with... the majority of the time, the stares and rolling of eyes come from Black females. I have noticed, my husband has noticed it too.

Younger black men will usually keep stepping, not missing a beat. Same for younger non blacks. Some older people (black and white) seems genuinely surprised or confused (and then embarrassed when they mistakenly assume we are not a couple.

I have more than once noticed a younger black female (younger I mean 30's and 40's) look at me with total contempt for no action on my part, other than walking through the grocery store with my husband and daughter.

I know what a look of total contempt is. If I told you that a white person looked at me with total contempt, I believe that you would trust that I know what contempt looks like and would not question me. Because I say this look of contempt comes from a person of color, suddenly I am making stereotypes.

Pretty amazing that you can read their minds like that.....especially the part about what they're "mistakenly assuming". I'll take your word that you can identify a "look of utter contempt" is, but being able to tell what people are assuming? Sounds like you may be seeing what you want to see sometimes.

"The D"? "Smooth with 1 black person"?.....Oh brother.....By the way, "hung" is the past tense of "hang". "Hanged" is what happens with the rope is shorter than the drop.
