No one is accusing you of being guilty of anything so get over yourself. We don't care about you OR your inconsequential history.

If a black person is stewing over something, it sure as hell aint about anything YOU did.

Damn...do people always go around being this narcissistic?
I don't know what fantasy land you live in, lol. You are actually denying that there are many voices out there who do hold whites collectively responsible for past injustices.

In other words, some people need something to obsess over and think about all the time, and chose to obsess about some other race. Others pick other subjects to obsess about that may be completely non political. So the racial obsessors are a subset of the obsessors more than a political issue.

White folks have never felt guilty about a damn thing so there was no pond to begin with.

And nevermind our wallets....you'd do well by trying to water your own.

It's very interesting to me that some white people think black people think about them, when it is the furthest thing from the truth. I'm starting to believe it's because they think of us so much.
EXACTLY!!! It's the opposite of what they think. Buncha damn narcissists. We don't think about them. Look around and see how many threads are started by black folks asking some dumbass question about white people, slavery, or anything else that makes no damn sense.

It's them (they know who they are) that can't get us out of their heads, not the other way around. Black folks aint thinking about these folks, but they want to believe it in order to put themselves on a pedestal.

Sorry, since I am not an African American, I am not qualified to answer.

None of my ancestors were bought and sold like cattle.
None of my ancestors were not allowed to sit at the same lunch counter with white people.
None of my ancestors were lynched because they tried to register to vote.

Sorry.

Really? Who are these voices? Give me their addresses so i can meet 'em.

Again, get over yourself. No one is holding you responsible for past injustices. No one is paying you any attention.
