I never said gays and lesbians had it easy. I said it is easier to hide being gay. Being gay or lesbian is a sexual preference. One is born Black or White. It is hard to tell if someone is gay or lesbian until one gets a little older. One is a certain race from birth.
My point is while other groups have had issues, Blacks have experienced some of the worst things for a longer amount of time. It took Blacks fighting back to get what they should have had.
Being Gay & Lesbian is not a "choice". By making such statements, you commit the same offense that you say Whites and others commit against Blacks with negative stereotypes.
As for the rest, you offer up opinion. You are of course entitled to it, but until you can make a compelling argument that would prove it, then, it's just opinion. I think you have a hard road to travel if you wish to convince Whites that they need to do even more to make it easier for Blacks. Especially, when, there is never any acknowledgment of what has already been done.
Yeah, I sent you that message because, again, you really don't know what you're talking about. Taking a single college class really doesn't impress me, nor did you apparently pay much attention. I took some art classes in college; doesn't make me an expert on Michelangelo. Stop embarrassing yourself with your lack of insight on Native American history.
My recommendation that you read the book holds.
"MPowering1- I don't get cowards who give someone they disagree with extra points, just so they can keep their venom private, rather than post what they think."
It's hardly venom, but I did it privately because this thread is so far off topic it's ridiculous. I really don't care if you think I'm a coward because someone is talking ignorantly about Native history in a thread on "how blacks behave."
It is a good thing. You are benefiting right now from the European colonization of the New World. If you don't like I invite you to quit your job, leave your house, and live as an Indian would have several hundred years ago. Don't live comfortably off of the fruits of European creativity, exploration, and colonization and then whine about it. In fact, you could move to Sub-Saharan Africa and live pretty close to how Indians did in the 1600s.
I'll never understand whiners like you. This is how the real world works, sorry you can't hack it. Do you not think that the Indians worked the same way? You don't think they killed and destroyed each other? Every piece of this earth is drenched in blood and has been fought over. If you are too squeamish to handle that you are in for a rough life.
Take down the Confederate flag and this is how black people act? When are we going to see someone put some bullets in these thugs?
White people are just as bad the way you oppress black people treat them inferior and not as citizens. Most of you all don't even treat us as equals. You don't even respect our Commander in Chief. Barack Obama is just as capable to be president just as any other white man. I mean we have to have laws that say black people are equal to white people REALLY!!!

Oh bull****! I'm white, and I don't give a s*** what color you are, or have no desire to oppress anyone! Neither do most white people that I know. Furthermore, I don't care what skin color Obama is (he is half white too) but I do care how he is running the country, which isn't very well BTW! If you're being oppressed in 2015 long after the Civil War, and long after the Civil Rights Movement, then it is you who is keeping yourself down! As others have stated, if you have it so bad here, then pick up and leave and go somewhere else where you don't feel so "oppressed!" Let us know how that works for you! Or you could stop listening to race baiters like Al Sharpton, and Jesse Jackson, quit attempting to divide everyone with "racism this, racism that" and actually join the rest of us in the here and now!

Its BS that I was taught in school that Ben Franklin and George Washington were such good people and these bastards owned slaves. Human beings people..... We have laws that give black people the right to vote and these laws are God given.

Of course they're God given! I'm not disputing that, and IMO the Civil Rights Movement made the Constitution whole, and solidified those God given natural born rights for ALL Americans. Having said that, even the founders of this country were not without their flaws. What can we do about it now? Nothing.

You need to get over this idea that if someone has a viewpoint you don't like that they should leave their own country.

When someone goes on and makes ridiculous claims about being oppressed by most white people in this country or some "mythical white privilege" in 2015, then why stay here if it's so bad?
