White Fragility

[Darts]

There must be over 30 ethnic/ religious groups in the U.S. Why should blacks think they are special? This whole BLM and "Remember The 400" stuff is getting really tiresome. Does anybody here really care what happened 400 years ago?

Oh.Let me take a crack at this one. They were the only ones brought there as slaves?Does anybody here really care what happened 400 years ago? Maybe if things had got better for them they wouldn't care so much.

You know!!!!

After slavery, the criminalize “black” movement started. So many POC were blamed for crimes they didn’t commit to get workers for chain gangs.

Then it kept going down hill With property, lack of health care and education.

There is no a white person here who would wish they were a POC, especially not in America.

Considering there is no unified BLM movement, you can't say they have one specific platform but they are united in wanting reform of the judicial system and the way that black people statistically get far harsher repercussions for similar circumstances.

There is a BLM manifesto, https://blacklivesmatter.com/what-we-believe/, maybe you mean "b l m".

Unfortunately BLM is as anti-Semitic as the KKK. http://carolineglick.com/video-discussion-of-the-blms-anti-semitism/

On the upside, BLM is drawing considerable attention to systemic discrimination of boys and men. Of course the focus is on boys and men of colour. Thats fine, it's necessary and can now be heard. The issue will come around to see all boys and men as being harmed because of their sex.

I have to content myself with being a POS.

Don't know if they do or will also "pad" I.Q. scores as well.

College Board will add adversity score for everyone taking the SAT

College Board says tool will provide more context for admissions officers. Many are skeptical of the plan. Critics and defenders of affirmative action see different problems with the index.

I said “here” as in on TERB.

But posting one example out of the billions who live on this earth, really shows that race equality is just bullshit.

Thanks for proving that to me. Appreciate it.

Does anyone know how many blacks living in Canada (or the U.S.) to-day are descendants of slaves brought to these shores? Is it a large majority? Is it even a majority?

As in being a POC in America.

People here on TERB would not want to be an American POC.

But again, your ONE example in billions totally smashes what I have said out of the water.

Do you the believe that American POC want to be White Canadians?

Where do you get billions?

Also there are millions of people that want to be “American POC“. Actually switching to be an American POC is the most common change in national identity on the planet. Some even fight to just be given the chance to become an American POC. In fact some risk their own and even their children’s lives to become just that.

To the Romans, black slaves made very good gladiators, they started migrating into Central Egypt when it was a direct protectorate of Rome. Once the Arabs established their Caliphate they routinely enslaved and converted blacks. But for the Europeans it was nothing more than naked capitalism.

This is bizarre logic to make a twisted point. From what I understand, a slave in the Islamic world could often get better treatment if they converted. So what? It's not like the Muslims were solely on some religious endeavor. Converted male slaves were forced into military service. Converted females slaves were forced to be concubines. Slavery had many aspects that benefited a Muslim slave owner beyond direct economic advantage.

Why isn't there a book called "Black Fragility"?

Every white boy wish they could be a black male: tall, handsome, strong, fast, owner of a huge bazooka and a total babe magnet. Plus, black males can jump, white boys can't. Ok, I kid (maybe).

When someone says "I'm Canadian", you straight away assume a white skin person.

That's how white skin is identified with Canadian.

Everyone else is considered an immigrant, regardless of their situation.

I'm a non-white person. I was born in Canada over 40 years ago.

Some people still tell me to go to my "shithole country", which is actually Cambridge Ontario, which I agree is kinda a shithole. LOL.

A lot of the girls here are young 30-somethings with white skin. How can they be more Canadian then me? I was alive, in Canada, born in Canada, before they were born !!!

And a better chance to survive in jail. What an enviable life

So if you had a kid in China today and 10 years from now a Chinese couple had a kid as well then your child would be more Chinese than their child?

No, just from racists who want to use problems on another continent to undermine a movement dedicated to equality in the US.

I hear there a lot racist within that movement, but you would be blind to that.

I don’t believe there is a single white person on TERB that wants to be a POC in America.

I don’t know how many times I have to say that for you to understand but this is the last.

I can’t be bother explaining it to you repeatedly when you clearly don’t get it.

Last word is yours. Laters
