I actually tried not to neg you but this post just took you over the edge
I mean, how disrespectful can one be? How can Black people giving up the only thing that identifies them (our culture) benefit us? making it Public Domain...are you serious?
when have Black folks as a whole ever benefitted in this country by allowing our culture to be taken and run with? It serves us no purpose.is this guy really this dumb?
The lack of tact & just looking down your nose at black people in your posting is like unreal. I can laugh at the typical racist crap...but this what you're doing is just sad. Real sad...its very insulting
The fact that you think it's insulting means you're ignorant that what I'm saying is true. Cultural assimilation is beneficial to the PEOPLE who assimilate. I'm not saying it's good for the 'CULTURE' itself (meaning morals within the culture) because of course they will have to change, which people could view as losing a sense of identity.
Your identity is your choice. If blacks choose their past identity, they will continue to fail as an entire population, even if there are individual successes. If blacks choose a newer identity, they will succeed.
FURTHERMORE, I also said that there are things I like about black culture. I think the mainstream culture could benefit in adapting certain things from the black culture.
It's a two way street. But in regards to the success of black people in America, it's only a one-way street. Your call.
If you say yes, you do want to adapt a newer identity. You do want to have a more open culture. You do want to be less racist. You do want to assimilate, I say: "Welcome to the party"
