"We are the Fury"
The relationship between black American women and black American men is what I am commenting on. The dismissal of the feelings of black women by black men is what I am commenting on.
While I agree that there is some level of dismissal which is inherent in male and female discussions, I think some misconstrue "dismissal" of issues because they are unimportant or counterproductive with "dismissal" of issues because they involve black women. I dismiss issues because of the latter. I consider whether the issue is important and what it means for black people and women, then I make my decision. This is how men all over make their decisions. When cacs first listened to white women and their cries for more rights, cacs thought about what it meant and how it could be reconciled, and then for a hundred years did nothing until such a time where it was feasible. At the same time cacs created their empire and forced cac women to continue what black feminists call "muling", which is create babies, shut their mouths and work for the good of the cac. Now behold the cac's ascent. A woman's issue is not important merely because she says so.
This is not third grade. We should not need to add disclaimers to every comment. I should not need to state that all black women do not have the same experience, and all black men are not arrogant a$$holes who think they have a right to tell black women how they should process their experiences. It should be obvious that no one is speaking in absolutes.
We need to account for contingencies and averages in order to paint a full picture of what goes on. Anything else makes our debate farcical.
I didn't even grow up around black people, yet I know exactly why these sentiments are present. If you are pro black then one of your goals should be to push towards healing and not division. Your dismissive attitude and those who are like you are not productive. It just opens the doors for black women to be tricked and lured by snakes who see the problem, and come slithering in with that, "you are so beautiful and I appreciate you...." tactic.
I don't disagree that there are c00nery and colorism sentiments present in black American society. I think the best way to go about it is to acknowledge these things as well as everything else in the mix, including the fact that there are plenty of black men who want black women and plenty of black women that only want this or that men, or don't want black men at all; that all women's desirability or undesirability does not come from skin tione; etc. This provides a full picture of going ons. Criticizing bed wenches and warning black women of racist snakes is another way to help those we are unhappy. Telling black women to move to places with more black people (duh) is another way.
Black men are the victims.
You are being sarcastic but you have no idea how right you are. Black men have to suffer these insults and indecencies from all races and genders, including his own women, and all because he lacks the power to enforce otherwise.
