You're using euphemisms.
"Won't embrace"= actively terrorizing
" difference is a deficiency "=completely inferior
" outcast "; stripped of human rights and dignity

You trying to water this shyt down

There's nothing watered down about it. When people dislike somebody for being different, the person that's actively hating sees the difference as a deficiency. They actively terrorize that person or group (bullying, but on a much larger, barbaric scale) and treat that person as an outcast.

When diversity isn't embraced and differences aren't accepted, that's when a problem exists. Racism is a symptom of that problem.

I noticed back around the Finding Forever album that a lot of what Common says sounds good or deep on the surface level, but really doesn't mean anything.

His message has consistently been about love.. He's basically a hippy or pseudo budist..It just isn't a practical stance to take in every situation..Particularly during war time with enemy combatants that seek to destroy you....

I'd prefer everyone keep their hands to themselves and just get it. I don't need to hold hands with Peter and Stacy to have success or feel comfortable. I succeed in spite of their racism while they jump from a building because life is too hard. I am getting mine no matter what.

we should take a poll of how many members have actually seen a native american in real life.
A lifelong friend of mine is of the Pima tribe, returns to his rez regularly and attends pow wows when he can. They really do exist.

And here we go with the unrequited love for other people of color :beli:

Y'all need to STOP with this sympathy you have for Native Americans (and other so-called minorities as well, since we're at it). Keep in mind they enslaved our ancestors too. And also keep in mind the majority of them are prejudiced towards black people. I'm not trying to downplay their struggle or whatever but we need to understand they weren't necessarily our allies or friends.

Just leave Native Americans alone. They don't care about us. Let's concentrate on our own plight.

Perfect example is the native Indians.

Look how many times they extended there hand for peace and look what happened to them.
:usure: The natives fought against colonization hard, they just lost.

To the victor goes the spoils or something right? We're just living through that reality.

I honestly can't even respect my ancestor's because of that L. :scusthov:
