then why have the word "black" in there.....how bout National Society of Journalist....

I ve been around blacks more than the average white guy blackdoveE....   My college basketball team was 2 whites and 13 blacks......Oh and I also lived with a black guy and that was by choice.....   I ve also spent many days in the South Oak Cliff area.... i ve spent many of days in Cheek.... I ve spent many of days embarrasing ballers in Beaumont... I ve been in and around the black community for a long time..... and still am   Then why use the word "black" in any name?   Whats the reasoning? Why are black colleges wanting whites to attend their colleges?.....so they don't look like racist?....

its been a few years since i ve stepped onto a black college campus.....   I didn't coin them "black"   and the blacks that are on the right .......what yall call "uncle toms"

No I don't believe they were racist acts.    But I know if I created a WET or an all white college....it wouldn't fly and also labeled a  racist.....   But it does remind me when it was white bathroom...black bathroom.....white water fountain.....black water fountain....etc   When attaching a color (race) to a organization/group ....what that says is that no other race is allowed......and that right there is what keeps some racism still alive.   Here's a question if you seclude a race or races....is that a form of racism?

Hang on....so white s have a better chance of getting a scholarship at a black college? I believe you mistyped there.   SO only blacks are allowed to attend to those black colleges????

I dont' care what color the skin is that occupies the white house.....   I didn't care for carter at all and he's white....that's not racist. I don't care for Obama's policies one bit....that's not racist.   I mean I posed the question because we do have BET, Black Colleges, NAACP, Black History month, NBJC, NABSE, etc...   When you add a color to an organization or group of people its referring to only that color (black or white) am I CORRECT....hows that not a form of racism.....

During these times I know appointing Mrs Williams at the interim doesn't look good because  Mr. Williams is on the board, but I will tell you that she is the most qualified, professional, and capable person to do this job.    she is very well respected in the Spec Ed division due to her professionalism.

Also since the topic is race.card...     does the name of the WHITE HOUSE.....bother yall

Cause I just know.....

im just surprised the black community hasn't raised the issue of changing the name of the WHITE HOUSE

mentioned bisd because they are about to cut people.....some will be white, black, orange, purple, gay, straight, female, male.....and that its not about the gender/race like some people are making it out to be with this transgender.   media and some people want to always claim a wrong doing when someone is fired.

instead of waiting for it to trickle down.....why don't the high school kids bust their butt in the books/athletics and get a scholarship or grants or some type of aide....go to college bust your butt there and graduate with honors then go get a job.....oh and learn how to budget your money.....and stop spending it on frivolous crap.   Take it upon yourself to improve your own life (you'll appreciate it more) and stop waiting for wealth to trickle down like a beggar waiting on food crumbs.   I don't care to help people who don't want to help themselves.....im not an enabler....   There is very few that really need help from others.....the others are just lazy and have plenty of excuses.

nothing news worthy in my opinion....   theres about to be a lot of cuts at BISD.....black, white, orange, gay, straight.....

Shouldn't have stole...   Judge should laugh in parents face.

not surprised at all that this president would negotiate with the terrorist....not one bit surprised.

there s nothing LOL about it......   Stick to basketball something you have more knowledge in   And like I said it is watered down....so what, at least I know about my family tree and the culture.   and I from your sarcasm....you get my point.

Believe me I have mingled with the natives a lot more than you have as well have read  plenty of literature on the Native American culture in my home library.  I grew up learning about my ancestors from my elders and taking trips to reservations. Doesn't make me an expert on their culture, but I know a thing or two about the Native American Culture and the importance of the land.  Just like Native Americans I take pride in knowing my heritage.   I also live off the land in similar ways that the native americans did.....I don't live in a concrete jungle like yourself. you ever track, call, and kill an animal, gut it, clean it, cook it, eat it?  Use as much of the animal as possible.  you ever grow and nurture a garden?  you ever pay attention to the weather?  can you name birds by their call?.  Don't be fooled cause Im typing a comment on a forum.     Glad it took someone to convince you to not liter.

exactly what I said on another post in the political forum about the term redskin

I don't blame the Native Americans for jumping on surf board to ride this tidal wave out.......their way of winning something  because they (ancestors ) lost so much.  Most Native Americans were very spiritual beings and I highly doubt that most are truly offended by this name, but have unresolved issues dealing with the past treatment of their people.
