In that interview Freeman acknowledged being black and his Asian mom.
Let me educate you and others on the subject of race. I agree with the modern anthropologists. In reality there is no such thing with the me concept of different races of human beings. We are made up of different cultures and ethnicities.
The races of human beings was a racial construct developed by the white racist scientists in Europe in the 16 and 17 centuries. We all were taught in schools that humans were divided into 3 races, Caucasoid, Negroid, and Mongoloid (Asians). That was grossly wrong for them to do that. They would measure the skulls of whites and Africans. Then based the size of the skulls on intelligence if some and I mean some of the white skulls were larger.
Unfortunately, identifying folks by race has been the status quo for centuries now. The bottom line is that white folks invented racism and now DEI and other programs to help minorities is the wrong. So DEI is y’all’s fault so get over it. If it wasn’t for racism, US slavery, affirmative action and DEI would not exist.
He probably won't. It is his inauguration which is an event that happens every four years. I expect the event to outline his desires for the country and provide a message to all during this event. I also expect that next year there will be a message about MLK and the following years since that is a yearly event. He could surprise me and mention it today? Still won't be surprised that when he lays out his desires they also support a country that is color blind for the people while improving their lives and a DOJ that is blind to politics as well as the way it was suppose to be before Obama started using it against political foes...that Biden put on steroids.
Do you think that there have been any situations where BIPOC individuals in charge have given their BIPOC jobs or advantages which screwed other white or minority groups? You think Fani Willis’ boyfriend was qualified to prosecute a case against a former President?
How about the HDO which ran the Chicago Streets and Sans Dept. in Chicago and became the reservoir for Hispanic patronage before getting busted. You think black run cities also haven’t had similar scandals to the one you keep pointing to from like 40 years ago?
See, you are the biggest racist because you believe that only whites are capable of commitment of bad acts. Chapter and verse from critical race theory. The oppressor is always evil. The oppressed is always virtuous and any bad acts is because of the oppressor.
Ask black people on the west side who call out Johnson’s immigration policy who the oppressor is. It’s his government which is stealing opportunities and resources from their neighborhoods. But I know you can’t comment because he is a D and is anti-Trump. I’ve asked you before and you say those brothers and sisters are sell outs.
I could spend all day correcting things, but it just isn't productive. It keeps me from getting things done and certainly never resonates into a logical area of the cerebrum for others. Now, when Jerry Faust was ND football coach there were moving vans paid for and parked outside his house. He was white, but never produced and so the war path began for him. Notre Dame like others schools have to be productive and that too has nothing to do with color. They have bills to pay and alumni that want winners.
Today ND has two ex Purdue coaches that are NOT white...one basketball and one football. The two major sports with football gather a LOT more attention than their basketball team. Notre Dame is somewhere close to 5% black and yet ND has men of color doing the coaching on the big stage. When Obama was hired for a graduation there were some ND people against him speaking. It had absolutely nothing to do with color and all to do with many Catholics stance on abortion.
Looking under every rock for race is not a healthy position. I understand your passion, but encourage a two family home for children which will absolutely improve the lives of blacks above and beyond the increase in wealth obtained. Encourage the academics or skill trade since it too is highly related to improving their lives...and once they get experience and decide to have their own business, the government will aid them as a minority owned company. Lot of things you can do to help facilitate your ultimate desires.
So what? That is a DEI hire. That is the issue we are talking about.
Please stop belaboring that Brown was qualified. No one refutes that. There are thousands of people qualified to be a SC justice: federal judges, law school faculty, on and on. Brown was a DEI hire because all candidates other than black women were excluded.
In my life I have experienced people that were "certified" which I found to be different than "qualified"...
Not to say she isn't qualified, only that I have recognized people in my many years on earth that were certified that fell short more than desired. I understand the parsing of words in that for all of us...certified is qualified...having no difference.You think white Europeans invented racism? You probably also think white Europeans invented slavery. Both of which would conflict with your Bible which I believe you hold to be true. Are you saying the Bible is fictional? If civilization sprouted from the Fertile Crescent and N. Africa then it’s most likely so did every evil of man. Then exported further by The Great Roman Empire. Thing is, you’ll find both the greatest racism and human slavery still existent in these areas.
Yes, white Europeans invented racism through the justification of bogus science. But I never said that they invented slavery. Slavery in some form has been around for thousands of years. As a matter of fact, the Muslims enslaved white European Christians in Northern Africa and some of the Arab nations.
What white Europeans did do is practice what is called chattel slavery which IS based on race utilizing the aforementioned racist scientist's bogus intelligence findings to justify enslaving Africans in the transatlantic slave trade. In chattel slavery, black Africans were owned for life by their slave masters.
Your argument of people giving their relatives exam answers is just so nonsensical and outlandish that it doesn’t even register as a remotely valid point. I mean, you’re reaching deep, deep into the depths of desperation with that one.
And no, you’re wrong. I’m not claiming victimhood. What I’m saying is that black people are perfectly capable of achieving success without their skin color being used as an excuse to be treated differently.
DEI is racist.
If it wasn’t for black Africans selling other black Africans into slavery, slavery wouldn’t have existed in the Americas.
So why did Muslims enslave white people? Because they viewed them as inferior people which is the very definition of racism. People dont enslave their equals but ohhh you just want to point to American slavery as racism because it fits your narrative despite it being one of the shortest periods of slavery in the thousands of years of man. Also, the black slaves in America and the Caribbean were sold to Dutch traders out of slavery by black Africans. And these Africans in slavery were owned by whites, blacks, and native tribes.
The dirty secret about your leftist brethren is they are the most racist. Look at Cuba where dark Cubans are extremely discriminated against. But yet black leftest leaders point to the Castros as heroes.
But you got to do some serious brainwashing to think that racism was originated in the 17th century by some European scientist but if you do you just agreed that the Bible is fiction.
Black racist grifters can't profit from consideration of why Muslims enslaved white people. Only white slave holders in America are useful when arguing for gain.
The enslavement of European Christians was more of a religious thing. The Muslims were still pissed by the 2 Christian crusades that massacred thousands of Muslims. Not because they viewed the Europeans as non-equals. Other form of slavery like the Romans practiced was due to enslaving the folks thy they defeated in wars. Some of them became gladiators. Most of them were fellow Europeans. Some were of other ethnicities including Africans. Again not because they felt superior to them. Basically the spoils of war. Again, chattel slavery in America was different in that these slaves were property of the slave holders for life. The whites that were indentured servants prior this were eventually set free after a set number of years.
When comes to your discussion of slavery, in which you know nothing about, you always leave out the most important group that was culpable in the transatlantic slave trade. The Americans, including the founding fathers that bought and sold the Africans right here in the US. The Africans that were picked up from ships that sailed to Africa. You you do this all the time to downplay America’s role in slavery. You ain’t the only one in this forum that does so and it is sad. The bottom line is that slavery in the Anericas would not have happened if they did not get the Africans. These Africans were basically prisoners of war with the other African tribes.
So what do you know about slavery other than what you're read? You a victim of your master? You been forced to work for little or no pay by the landowner?
Nah, you haven't.
Ah…because it’s the MLK Jr holiday today.
And I was pleasantly surprised that he did mentioned the MLK Jr holiday.
What I know about slavery? Some people call it history books. Nowadays, historical information is a google search away.
You know, you've never, as I pointed out, been involved as a slave as some were hundreds of years ago. I've read a lot of books about various things including the one I'm reading now about slavery and the south, and yet I'm not proclaiming to be a pioneer, a doctor, a builder of motorcycles, nor a star athlete.
You've never been a slave my friend, and not everything you read on Google or You Tube is always accurate and totally truthful.
One can be a part of the solution or one can be a part of the problem. I'll let you decide which opinion you give to others on an internet forum.
