Black Father Doesn't Allow His Kids To Wear Hoodies, Dark Clothes Or T-Shirts!

[Suicide King]

Some of yall are full of shyt.

If a woman goes out the house in a mini dress and she was approached by men for sex you would be like "Oh yeah well she shouldn't have dressed like that...she should have expected that".

It's the same to me when you dress in what's typically considered"urban"/thug/street wear or whatever the fukk. Like I said, like it or not you're judged by how you dress.

You are missing the point.

He is making his kids feel self-conscious, and they are going to feel inferior because their dad told them they were. I grew up extremely poor, but I never had anyone telling me that the white man was better me

And if you read the article, his 15 year-old son still got called a nigg*r on his way from school.

Your dress code argument is pretty mute. Because innocent looking garments like hoodies and khakis look very menacing on black people. This is what Trayvon Martin had on. Also, the sneakers were white.

Yes, teach your kids to be safe. The problem is the extent to which he is doing it...If you continue to conform it just encourages it to continue. In the article he wrote his son did all those things and STILL got called a n*gger on his prep school campus. Profiling is largely based on skin color, you can't change that.

I don't know one race of teenager that doesn't wear hoodies. Some of you justifying his extent, so only black kids shouldn't wear hoodies to not scare anybody

The point is the fact that he has to do all that is cause to say enough is enough. Teach safety AND fight against the system that makes it necessary. Not just keep conforming until we are back at keeping our head down and saying yes sir and no ma'am to anyone with pale skin.

Some of the most educated people be some of the most simple minded mofos you'll ever come across..

Why not just put them in dresses?

Non threatening black male , isn't a real solution . to appease white people mentality won't stop racists legislation's or racists acts from occurring . the only way to end federal sanctioned violence is by confronting white racism , moving away from acceptance to self sufficiency. Just because whites feel threatened when we don’t appease their feelings over our survival doesn't mean people like him should make his kids nonthreatening for the white supremacist mind

you would think after all these years of section of blacks trying to appease those whites , we have learned 2 stop trying to be friends with everyone

Dont forget to take to tell them to take the bass out of their voices, too

Wait a second Coli....haven't we seen this guy before? Ain't this the same guy who wrote the article on one of the newssite on how he was shocked his sons experienced racism because they wore suits?

Yep. He also did this in 1992

He was making 6 figures as a Lawyer, but he wasn't allowed to join the exclusive country club because he was black. Dude took leave from his job to pose as a busboy at the country, getting $7 an hour, all because he wanted to know why they won't let him in the house


He frustrated because he's still eating straps after being the model negro white people can appreciate

I remember when Stephen A. Smith told the story of going to an office building in a custom Italian suit. Looking like a million bucks. He gets in the elevator and an older white woman gets nervous and clutches her purse. Lol. SA's suit was worth more than the contents of her purse.

Dressing preppy, speaking with perfect diction, doing things to make yourself seem nonthreatening won't save from being profiled. I've heard stories of brothers, like the one in the story, getting stopped and frisked on their way to their Wall Street jobs.

This is so fukkin sad

 

[Big Blue]

How can you say he's not a c00n? He's acting color blind by stripping his sons of any semblance of black culture in order to appease white people. And it's all for naught. His kids still got racially ostracized.

 

[Virtuous_Brotha]

a bit over the top but he means well and is an actual father to his kids so
