It's this type of thread the proves the point that racism is alive and well in the world. I am a Black American, PERIOD! It pisses me off when people try to pidgeon whole black people into the "what box do you check on a job app" thing. And it pisses me off twice as much when black people do it. The sooner everyone accepts that we all bleed the same red blood, eat the same food, and breath the same air, the better off humanity will be. Quote:

The more these posts go on, everyone looks like they have IQs equal to or lower than a bowl of bean dip. No one ever "wins" these debates because no one is going to share the same point of reference. So why even try to ask for explanation? You aren't going to accept it in any form because the belief is already formed. As has been said before, it is dependant on who is doing the labeling. Quote:
