it will be gone in 30 years when all of the whites and blacks involved in the civil rights era are dead.
15 percent of all marriages are mixed and that number will rapidly grow in the next decade.
????? So you think if blacks forget about their past everything will be ok? Go and tell a Jew to forget about the holocaust and see how well that goes over. Why are you so eager to ease history because it was unkind or because it protrayed the brutality of one man towards another because of the color of their skin?
"An analysis of 'single offender victimization figures' from the FBI for 2007 finds blacks committed 433,934 crimes against whites, eight times the 55,685 whites committed against blacks. Interracial rape is almost exclusively black on white — with 14,000 assaults on white women by African Americans in 2007. Not one case of a white sexual assault on a black female was found in the FBI study."
Though blacks are outnumbered 5-to-1 in the population by whites, they commit eight times as many crimes against whites as the reverse. By those 2007 numbers, a black male was 40 times as likely to assault a white person as the reverse.
If interracial crime is the ugliest manifestation of racism, what does this tell us about where racism really resides — in America?
And if the FBI stats for 2007 represent an average year since the Tawana Brawley rape-hoax of 1987, over one-third of a million white women have been sexually assaulted by black males since 1987 — with no visible protest from the civil rights leadership.
Today, 73 percent of all black kids are born out of wedlock. Growing up, these kids drop out, use drugs, are unemployed, commit crimes and are incarcerated at many times the rate of Asians and whites — or Hispanics
You seem to be very, very worried about a group of people that I suspect you are not a part of. Want to talk about it? (I say, like a therapist).
What right wingers can't stand is that there is a slow progression toward less and less racism. That's why all this racism is coming out. The moment we elected an African-American president, uh oh, they went NUTS!
Bi-racial
Africans in Africa won't claim him as their own & you know that.
that wasnt the goal. the goal was to show blacks he was taking this seriously.
and it is true about whites following blacks in stores
The goal was to show blacks he was taking it seriously? He could have done that just by remarking on the case.
By personally inserting himself into the topic he completely alienated the people who have the power to stop doing the very things he and other AAs are complaining about.
So, he gave blacks a thumbs up and made them feel good in the short term but in effect he was kicking them in the rear by making their future progress more difficult. That is the problem with his approach.
That is the problem with his leadership or lack thereof for the country as a whole. For all his hopes and promises he has proven to be just as divisive and hapless as his much maligned predecessor.

no i said when whites and blacks from the civil rights era are dead racism should be on the way out.
the whites who poured condiments on blacks during the sit ins are still alive........they need to die
race is a non issue to the youth, just look outside. i see mixed couples everyday in a heavy white state among the youth.
the elderly whites in particular are the problem and time will get rid of them.
Ah, that happened to me too. I got called for the grand jury at the same time for county. Grand jury seems interesting but 18 months is a bit to long for me. lol
great, so any white male near a playground should be followed since the overwhelming majority of pedos and child rapists are white males.
Obviously, it went over your head. But yeah, honestly, if there is some weird looking white dude at a playground by himself, you dont think people are going to keep an eye on him? Hell yes they will. Any parent would. That is called profiling. And sometimes, its the right damn thing to do.
You still didnt answer me other question. But dont bother, I bet I knew where you were going. Obama has to show that he's with black people... Why? This case isnt about black and white. And if we are going to make it a race issue, then every thing about Trayvon should be put out there. His fighting, suspensions, drug use, n word use, wanting to get a gun, etc, etc Chances are, this kid was going to end up a statistic anyways. Except it wouldve been a black man that killed him, and no one would have ever knew he was.

Whites follow blacks in stores? Why is that?
those "alienated people" had no interest in black issues to begin with.
