-You have Black History Month.

-You have Cesar Chavez Day.

-You have Yom Hashoah

-If we had WET (white entertainment television) ...we'd be racist.

-If we had a White Pride Day... you would call us racist.

-If we had white history month... we'd be racist.

-If we had an organization for only whites to "advance" our lives... we'd be racist.

-If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships...you know we'd be racist.

-In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights...you would call us racist.

-Did you know that some high school students decided to make a club for only the white students because the other ethnicities had them. they all got sent to court for being racist but the african-american, Latino, and Asia clubs were not even questioned.

-You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists.



I am white.

and

I am proud.

But, you call me a racist.



Why is it that only whites can be racists?

Now watch, I'll be racist for reposting this

So what? no-one will re-post this for fear of being called racist

[*Mercy*]

Not to be a ass but Did you get this off myspace??

Racism
As far as racism goes, if a black person called me a cracker, I'd knock him the f**k out. If a white person called me a spic... I'd knock him the f**k out too.

Throwing racist comments around, is a desperation when you're losing or getting styled on. Racism is for the weak and even a cock roach is more significant than a racist ignorant bitch.

Oh by the way, TNT... ever heard of it? That's white man's entertainment.

You also have Neo Nazis and KKK roaming the U.S. while the black panthers and NOI have to stay underground.

Do your knowledge before you spit your wisdom.

If anyone calls me anything, I really don't care. As long as they don't say anything that's very personal, in that case, I'm shooting someone.

LMFAO!!

Whoa! What did she do?

[illriginal]

lol why would the teacher get mad if it's true. Just deal with it lol
But that is funny... even though they do get 1 whole month, they shouldn't feel as if they're gettin shitted on.

What do you call Independents day, Thanks Giving,and Presidents days and 4th of July?


p.s What made you start this tpoic?

[illriginal]

What do you call Independents day, Thanks Giving,and Presidents days and 4th of July?

Uh... 4th of July is America's Independence Day
All of those are national holidays... not race based holidays.

[1angel3]

^ Black people didn't have anything to do with it (Thats what I;m saying)

[*Sandraaa*]

You know, if Whites were considered to be 'minority' maybe then you'll get what you want.

All these [insert race] events don't exist in Belgium. America causes trouble for America. I do not see the importance of it all, honestly.

[1angel3]

^ I agree

I'm think it was a forward of some type, especially because of:

This is a really old argument, one that has a topic in Debate if memory serves (at least, the debate touched upon the subject).

Also, there is a fine line between a racial slur and a commonly used colloquialism.

Yeah but even colloquialism is sad... why would you be proud to call yourself [insert racial slur]?

I guess people no longer value their roots, which is sad. If someone argued that it's ok to use colloquialism or racism against their own people because they're the same race... then they have no Honor/Pride for who they are, and what their ancestors were.

If we humans keep it up this way, culture will be dead yet made into nothing but a facade.

^ Black people didn't have anything to do with it (Thats what I;m saying)

lol Nor were the Chinese, the South Americans, the Jews, Australians etc...
If you have a problem with these national holidays in your country (America) then don't celebrate them, you have your constitutional rights.

Yeah but these culture wasn't apart of the beginning of America( well not that I know of). Just like the topic starter, he mention all African American holidays, so I was naming some for him/her too. Everyday at school we learn about white history in every class except of math. I'm glade black people have at least one month.

[JerzDevil]

aiyo girl, you brainwashed hahaha, i'm dying. did you make this up?? usually people who are racist against white people, they don't care cuz whites are the ones that think they are superior in the U.S. looking down at the minorities (africans, hispanics, asians). they run the U.S. of course. no race comes above them in this country. so white people wouldn't really care either cuz they still think they are superior. meanwhile when it's the other way around, we would get offended, cuz as they racially offend us, we feel that they are stronger and superior than us. that's how I feel. also when they usually say white power, i feel that it is a racist slogan, cuz that was a saying back then from a bunch of white racists.

asian pride

now y'all can't call me racist, can you? ha.

[*Sandraaa*]

^ [off topic] I'd love to hear your voice / accent. <=== Angel3

I hate to break it to you... but your race wasn't the only race that was brutally beaten, enslaved, murdered etc... I understand the history your ancestors had, but realistically speaking, your ancestors aren't the only ones. Racism, enslavement, and overall hatred has existed all over the world, believe it or not.

i'd agree with that somewhat

that whole post that started this topic is ridiculous. i've seen it on myspace repeatedly and delete anyone who posts it just because they are idiots. everything about it is dumb to me, my favorite is

-In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights...you would call us racist.

they WERE marching for their rights
if i saw a ton of white people back then marching for their rights, i wouldn't call them racists, i'd call them attention whores. why on earth would they march for rights they already have

Bingo... plus you guys live in the U.S. it's part of the American History. In another country, they'd be like oh well Americans enslaved, the Chinese, Blacks, Hispanics, and Native Indians... and we enslaved [insert races/ethnic groups here].

You can easily tell it was some kid that made the bulletin. That or a really uneducated person, who doesn't know the facts.

[brooklyneast05]

well i suppose it's better to be enslaved than just be flat out murdered, such as the Indians

i guess we could celebrate that on white pride day?

Yes I understand that, I didn't say we was the only.
