Re: Response from Black Civil Rights Leaders (Score: 1) by GeoffDB on Wednesday, June 16 @ 18:46:04 EDT (User Info | Send a Message) | The reason why I have personal concerns about seeing more black leaders speak out against anti-Asian violence is my closest and best friend is Vietnamese. A buddy of mine is Japanese and I am going to visit him this November in Tokyo.
If some thug beat up my best friend because they wanted to "get back at Asians" it would cause me to go in a rage. It would not simply be disappointed. I would be ENRAGED.
For society, you cannot have a democracy where different ethnic groups despise each other. Our economy, healthcare systems, educational systems, political systems cannot operate. It is not feasible in a capalist economy such as ours. It is not practicable.
Bad/thuggish black guys consider good black guys acting black. Thugs and violent predators only make up one portion of African Americans. That is not typical poor and middle class African-American thinking.
You are allowing your racial stereotypes, media depictions and racist thinking to cloud your opinions of the black race. |

The ONLY way to eradicate racial conflicts is complete racial separatism. Otherwise we're going to have to deal with differences and conflicts. Because unfortunately some people blame their incompetencies on other people.
dude, you got some major racial hangups. with comments like this and you accuse me of outdated modes of thought from the 80s.
if you've read about the 20th century history of south africa or the autobiography of nelson mandela you'd know that apartheid doesn't work! "separate but equal" in theory is completely different from reality where one group always get screwed over by another group.
somebody has to extend friendship to the other party and stop the hate... and as an asian man living in america i respect guys like geoff more than militant teen-agnst boys who needs to get out in the world and see how it really is instead of conjecturing hypotheticals on the internet. |
