There's nothing racist about that, but it's an example of an advantage that some whites have that most blacks will never be privy to.
This explains why white Harvard MBA grads 20 years out earn way more than the nonwhite ones, even the Asians.

Our Trump supporter will scream that black Harvard MBAs are lazy and prefer to live off food stamps.

Wow this is from the man who never has anything good to say about any group of blacks. Even black women have to curse you out for making derogatory remarks and then you wondered why people call Trump a racist.

Why don't you cite an example of where I said that Caribbean blacks are superior? Now I know that you will come back with something stupid given that you have proven many times that your intellectual capacity is somewhat limited.

As late as the 1920s black college grads had to work on trains as porters and considered this a good job. You chat nonsense.

In fact the Irish and the others beat up blacks for daring to think that they could seek employment in places where they worked. The Irish faced discrimination certainly but it wasn't that blacks were preferred.

I made no such condemnation.

I spoke out on how mass incarceration was a huge factor in the high unemployment among Blacks. You said why didn't BLM deal with economic issues, and I said that mass incarceration along with the utter marginalization of a huge percentage of Black people are what creates the issues among Blacks in the US.

The fact that there are separate Black neighborhoods say a lot, as these neighborhoods are ALWAYS underresourced in terms of education, policing, retail, amenities, medical care, retail, and financial services, among other services and these things are only improved when it's time to gentrify a neighborhood.

Even though I'm no fan of Nywriterdude and we have been on bad terms. He has came out and spoke against black institutional racism which still persists here in the states. And I think you did condemn black Americans on some occasions if I recall. I will have to dig it up.

I'm just sad that now race has become a huge issue now. While the top 5% of the country are laughing at you guys including Trump, Soros and Koch.

Its weird how the people of this NYC forum mostly can care less about what color skin a person has yet we argue about racism like something nutso. I guess deep down its just that melting pot cesspool syndrome of stress and toxins that people get sucked into it. There are some sick puppies in here...

All of them are. The white liberals are scared to death of black people and the black leftists are militant white haters.
