Some people perception that Asians are more highly motivated, harder working is of those Asains that are the top percetile of their group. There are plenty of just regular folk in asain community that are not in college or working in a research facility. Perception.
Misperception actually:
"Contrary to popular perception, not all Asian Americans are basking in financial security and working high-income jobs after years of intensive schooling. The official poverty rate of Asian Americans in 2011 actually exceeded that of whites by 2.5 percentage points, according to the U.S. Census Bureau." Asian Americans had higher poverty rate than whites in 2011, study says - Los Angeles Times
And yet we don't hear calls for all Asian Americans to stop doing the things that they must be doing that contribute to the increasing poverty rate amongst Asian Americans.
What truth/ I will challenge him or you to debate any precivied truths you have. Just argue with provable faces and not myths...
Have at it.
Read the OP again. You still won't admit it is the truth, therefore you aren't capable of having a debate.
Either open your eyes and make changes, or just accept the race probably will never be solved. Your wrong opinion has been instilled into you since birth and you are past admitting the truth. People with that attitude are the reason there are still race problems in America..
Again, the black man is his own worst enemy... Change or accept you will always be profiled...
What is the purpose of this thread? Black people don't need a lecture from somebody that could never imagine what it is like to walk in their shoes. You didn't say anything enlightening or new.
This forum has been overrun with racism, such as this thread, with the majority being white towards black.
People are people and threads like this don't help anyone.
Thanks.
"People are people"?
Really?
I'll have to remember that the next time I'm talking with a white male DMV employee.
Blacks love racism.
It's the air they breath.
If it's rampant black on white racism or government on white racism, all is as it should be because black people were slaves 150 years ago.
The fact that 360,000 whites died to make them free, many more never supported slavery or still more were living in ****ing Europe at the time doesn't matter because guilt or innocence is a matter of skin pigmentation...unless it's black people, then it's not.
If it's an isolated incidence of white on black racism, then everything alleged about a society brimming with foaming-at-the-mouth white racists is confirmed and all the things blacks do to sabotage their own success becomes immaterial.
No need to stop smoking dope or pass on those new $300 sneakers so you can pay your child support because white people are responsible for everything that goes wrong in the black universe.
No ..... there wasn't. The 911 operator established that when Zimmerman could even answer her question about the description of the "suspicious" person he called about.
And yet -- Only in the Sharpton, Jackson, Holder, Obama race merchant Leftist America --
does blaming the white race for a Latino guy killing a black guy, make sense.
The only white guy in this whole case was the cop who arrested Zimmerman.
It boggles the mind when you really think about it .... but, here we are.
That's no assumption. Your post was 100% condescension. Why aren't you calling on all white people to do something other than what they are now doing in order to save poor whites in rural America, for example?
The fact is is that your post condemns all black people by making each and every black person responsible for what every other black person does. The same is never asked of white people. And guess what? That's the most insidious kind of racism because it's internalized to the point that the lack of logic behind such thinking seems logical.
"Why aren't you calling on all white people to do something other than what they are now doing in order to save poor whites in rural America, for example?"
I didn't know poor whites living in rural areas were blaming other people, or other races, for the effects of the decisions they made.
"The fact is that your post condemns all black people by making each and every black person responsible for what every other black person does."
Actually, it addresses both individual and collective excuse making and blame shifting.
"The same is never asked of white people."
No, of course not because then black people would blame white people for slavery even though no one living to day was ever a slave or owned slaves.
"That's the most insidious kind of racism because it's internalized to the point that the lack of logic behind such thinking seems logical."
That's right, if you can't see the racism, that doesn't mean it doesn't exist, it just means it's a more subtle form of institutional racism.
Of course that has nothing to do with the DMV employing nearly 100% black females and zero white males.
It's just that only black females have the ability to transfer a title.
OK, let's review...
If a white person points out blatant black racism (blaming whitey) and high levels of black dysfunction, that's stereotyping and proves white people are born racists.
If a black person complains of racism or blames black dysfunction on white people and it seems the problems are caused solely by decisions made by the black people in question, that is an example of the very subtle institutionalized racism that is real but seems like it's not.

As someone married into a Mexican-American family, I see this as the hugest double-standard when it comes to Asians.
-When Mexican neighborhoods have street signs and newspapers in their own language, Mexicans are accused of "shoving their culture down their throat".
-When Asian neighborhoods do the same, they are by and large given a free pass. In fact, I would argue many of the same people would say it's "cultural" or "educational".

are you unable to formulate your own thoughts, unable to defend you own contentions, unable to be salient and accurate in your facts?
If they are truths, restate what you beleive and back it up...
prove your truths are correct, just dont tell me they are.
So your contetion is that black people are not moving forward???
Your generalizations are telling. I will assume that Asains make up a large percentage of student in higher education per capita, but that does not take into account all the other asains not in college or business owners.
Some people perception that Asians are more highly motivated, harder working is of those Asains that are the top percetile of their group. There are plenty of just regular folk in asain community that are not in college or working in a research facility. Perception.
Black people "support their own" instead of trying to drag an up and comer back into the crab pot of failure
^^^
this a very telling statement. A misconception of yours.
In the African American tradition as well as other minorities in this nation...the theroy was and in some sense still is...if you make[out of the crab pot...to use your analogy], you reach back down to help the next out.
I guess this something you will never undestand.
I said "Af Black people" like as in "African Black". Good try with deflecting there.
