Is there a standard for every race color and creed that tells us just who is entitled to claim what they are?


youd better believed there is!
i cannot get full benifits from my tribe because im more black than indian,
no matter that i lived most of my life on the rez and identify is indian.
cant claim white cuz im not pale enough (unless i say 'oh i just tan really well'),
cant claim black cuz im not dark enough.
not cryin, i love being mixed. but i am sick of people who say they get it
when they really dont, or never can.

LOL.

Yeah the myth of the BBC.  Fine if you are into it, and if you got such a desire and imagination, it is going to come true, but I was in the army, showered with alot of people of every kind and we all run about the same, some of us all got them big 'uns, some of us all got them little 'uns.

Yeah, they called him Sir Alistair Cock over on that side of the pond.

Well, enough was enough ... so I decided to have a little indignation of my own. I told him that he was a graduate student at Rice University, drove a Porche, and that you could play tennis in his parent's living room. I told him be belittled everyone that has really suffered, by claiming that suffering for himself .. when he was really just a whiney rich kid

Good for you, caitlyn!  Buy the jackass a copy of this book:

I just read it and it's right on.  We two white girls have been the victim of "racism" more than this this spoiled brat.  Geesh.  Kudos to you for telling him like it is and not succumbing to the white guilt bs...................luci

I am not saying a word about this except to say that I am not really White.  I have white skin but that is it. My Father explained it to me, we are Polacks, but Poland used to be Persia I guess and that used to be Aryanna, s

Pretty good melting pot of responses ... some happy, some sad ... some naughty, some nice ... some rich, some poor. Remind you of anything? [;)]

The overly well-to-do whiney black guy in the OP reminded me of this song




petdave -> RE: No Longer White!!!!! (3/23/2008 10:15:01 PM)

So go ahead and label me
An asshole cause I can
Accept responsibility, for what I've done
But not for who I am-
Don't call me white! Don't call me white!

This is a pretty good point ... a bit of a surpise, considering your prior contribution to this thread basically consisted of flaming a total strangers on Easter Sunday.[;)]
 
I think a lot of white people, and previously white people like myself, have next to no link with social groups like race, and country of origin. My skin is the color my tanning bed and the Houston sun, say it is. Given the nature of my biological parents, I might be almost anything. I joke about being Irish ... but my link to Ireland, is an Irish last name, and Baileys in my coffee when it's cold. My guess is that many really don't understand these advanced ties to social groups, having no such ties of their own.
 
To me, the point lost in the zest to flame specific points in the original post, was the notion that we play the hand we are delt ... and perhaps lectures from those that aren't really part of a downcast group, are not all that helpful.
 
Off to class ... cc

My genetics, I am pretty clueless about. My skin colour, beige with occasional red tints. Oh, I forgot the foot the horse stepped on....it is blue, green, purple, burgundy, and a faint tint of yellow.

In response to both of you.....

There's no use in claiming the glory or the shame of something/someone beyond your control; you can only really be judged, and have responsibility for, your own actions/merit. Anything less, is self-deception.

Caitlyn, the lad might have simply been looking for a manipulation angle. Having said this, the fact he's rich doesn't negate the fact he's open to institutional racism.

P.S. You do a grand job of impersonating a lass with a lot to say for herself........"outside of the internet, I don't say much."

For myself, I do not so much take pride in my heritage as I strive to be worthy of it.

In my boys, I take pride in knowing I had a part in growing them into the men they are today.




camille65 -> RE: No Longer White!!!!! (3/24/2008 8:06:14 AM)

I find it a bit difficult to have pride in my heritage because I am such a huge mix that I would have to learn about 8 different cultures.So, I take pride in being myself. Sometimes I'm pinkish with yellow undertones, sometimes with red undertones. Sometimes I'm tan with an olive-y look to my skin. Irish, English, Native American, Dutch, German etc.

oh lol, my 1st post want any kind of flame, try to read it with an open mind. it was nothing more than point from the other side of the fence. questions to actually ask yourself. does any of it apply to you? if it does, maybe thats why you saw it as a flame.
if it didnt, youd be saying, hmmm, now theres a different way to think about things.
heres another question, since you totaly missed the original point lol, if we are to play the hand we are dealt, how do you really know at your age what hand youve been dealt yet? oh shit, youre 21, you already know everything. no worry tho, youll forget it all by the time your my age lol (now that was a flame hehe-kidding! [;)])

oh and another question, you profile states you joined in 11/06, yet here it states 12/04, how did that happen? when did you join? i dont think ive ever seen that before [8|]

edited to ad: what the freak does it being easter have anything to do with it???
