do you think that black people act a certain way?

I'm with you on this one.\nPeople who say you're white-washed for being yourself have a pretty poor idea of how blacks are supposed to behave.\nIgnore them.

I'm not white, but I know what you mean.  You will probably be called racist for asking this question.  Blacks don't realize that the way they act towards white people can be considered racist too.  Things will never change whites will always be "the bad guy trying to keep us down" and blacks will always be "the victim" no matter how equal they are, they still believe that they are victims.  Like I said things will never change.

When people think of black people, they think about the majority of blacks they have seen in person or in the media: they are ghetto, loud, rude, use slang, act hard, etc.\n\nThese are the images that are out there in the mainstream. These are the people that some see when they go to the mall or to the movies. They see blacks being loud and talking on the cell while people are trying to watch the movie. They see blacks speaking heavy ghetto slang and wearing clothing that hangs below their butts.\n\nWhen they see a black who does not fit that stereotype, they see that as an except and not as the norm. They see that as a black, trying not to be "black". They have a hard time understanding that there are different classes and types of blacks and that being black does not mean just acting one type of way. They just see someone not following the norm or trying to be "white".

I couldn't agree more. Black people realize this too. But most will simply say you are ignorant for noticing what needs to be noticed, so that blacks have some motivation not to slip into the "N" category.

I'm white and I've actually been told that I couldn't have any problems by more than one race. The only thing I can say, is that good and bad comes in all of God's colors as well as narrow minds. God gave us choice and sometimes people chose to believe what is easist to belive in order to release themselves of all responsibilty to a current situation or life situation. The other thing is that you are actually perpetuating the cycle by making a blanket statement. I do not have to be black to know in my heart, that not all black people think this way even though I did experenced exactly what you're talking about.

Black people feel that because their ancestors were the victims of slavery & oppression, they have the right to complain about what white people do. I feel sorry for the whites today that have to constantly watch what they say around us. It causes white people to act more hostile towards blacks. I think black people need to have a sense of humor & stop gettting offended when whites open their mouth to say something...life is just too short to harbor any resentments.

I actually think it is! I have seen black people who are racist against blacks (there was some talk show on it a long time ago), so it could be that someone is sexist against their own gender. For example, some man may feel that men are inferior to women because they are unable to bear children. Odd, but it could happen!

I'm a black Latina,I am also 1/4 Mexican so I look at these people as fellow human beings and fellow Latinos. I will not turn my back on them whether legal,illegal,etc. I also deal with(all nationalities) people from all walks of life on a daily basis and I know the poverty and conditions they experienced in the old country.Just think 50 years ago people used to feel the same way about us blacks,people may say the situations are not similar,but they are.

It is the other way around. I think black people are racists to white people. They exclude themselves. B.E.T televsion for example. White people dont have W.E.T.

yes. If you dress like cool at school or try to talk or at black or even listen to rap music. then your're acting black.

I agree. I for one, am even more offended when black people use it, because the worst kind of degradation is self degradation. Certain black people need to show more respect for themselves and their people.

You are right, it is weird. When whites comment on blacks it is bad. When blacks comment on whites it is okay. Weird times. Why can't we just get along?

sometimes.  But sometimes black and white people look similar, or any combination of people.  Ultimately we are all human, and humans look alike.

Well I can not speak for everyone. But I myself find some black women very attractive. I would like to date one some time . I guess I always wonder what my friends and family would think as well as what her friends and family would think but the bottom line is how we both feel towards each other.

It's the literal "Pot calling the Kettle black" routine. \nRACISM: pure and simple.\n\nSome don't think so, but black people are racist, they just use the term "oppression" to justify it.
