Lord have mercy! I am going to take a nap & a nice muscle relaxant before I even start on this one.....
Later
as you already know by now, i am no Harriet Tubman, MLK, or Miss Jane Pittman. i don't fight whitey, i f*ck him (can you hear me now?). but this really disturbed me & i have to respond.
Adrianne Curry almost had a fan in me. she won America's Next Top Model but got nothing from Tyra, no contract, no work, not even a pic when they show the other winners at the beginning of each ANTM show. All of her quotes are in red.
a month dedicated to one race, and not one for any other, is RACIST: Black History Month was the only time we EVER learned about black people in the predominantly white schools that i attended
black people were slaves here once. You know what? That does suck some major balls, however, it is time to move the f_ck on. : ok, who was it who said, "Those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it"?
How dare we have Black History Month! In my eyes, the Native Americans deserve it MUCH more: do Native Americans deserve a month? sure. why the f*ck not? it's the least white people could do for stealing their land....
WE ALL CAME FROM ONE BLACK WOMAN FROM AFRICA, THAT is our EVE! It has been proven by science, and I stand by it. If any other race had a chanel dedicated to just them, we would think it was racist: um, honey everybody has their own channel. Latinos have telemundo, Asians have their own channels, Russians & Armenians have their own channels (& nobody is saying that it is racist). the American media only shows what they want you to see (blondes with fake boobs are the only standard of beauty,Latinos are always illegal aliens, Asians are nerds, & black people are lazy). of course different races have their own channels (duh) & no it has nothing to do with rascism. when was the last time you saw a sexy Asian guy on tv or a millionaire Latino that did not deal drugs. i didn't think so....
So, I will no longer tune into BET. This is going to suck, but I do NOT like the idea of having a chanel for only 1 race: BET is not for black people, it is for people who like BET. i have never enjoyed BET, i don't watch it. BET never catered to my interests or what i found entertaining ( & i'm pretty sure that i'm black)
Lets change Black History Month to 2 months of AMERICAN HISTORY: the whole point of Black History Month was the fact that we teach American ie White history everyday. BHM was created to level the playing field a bit
NO MORE SPECIAL TREATMENT FOR ANYONE WITH ANYTHING! : black people don't want special treatment (Dallas has a slight anuerism).we want to be treated equally. THAT was the point of the civil rights movement (Dallas bangs head against computer keyboard). good lord! are you f*cking kidding me? when were all these special favors for minorities handed out? was i asleep that day???? come on. let's all get real for a second, & btw, where is my 40 acres & a mule?
when i applied for college grants/scholarships, i got nothing. nada. zilch. when i went to the government for assistance, they said that i didn't make enough money to get an unemployment check (ain't that a b*tch!). when i went to the agencies for work, they said "Black models don't sell, but i would like to f*ck you".
& please do not say "What about Latinos doing the jobs nobody else wants" & "The Chinese built our railroads". yes, i know that many different races came together to form America. yes, i know that Latino is the new black. i get it. they came here on their own free will. they could leave whenever they wanted to. we never had that choice.
i wish we did live in a utopia & i was treated just like anybody else. i wish i could walk in a store & not be followed around ('cause you know how n*ggers love to steal). i wish i could pass by cops & not have to worry ('cause you know how n*ggers are the only ones who commit crimes). i am not writing this because i think Adrianne Curry is racist (i don't know the woman). Adrianne Curry is ignorant & ignorance in America is bliss....
the point of all this is that, we are not through yet. this is NOT the best that our society can do. don't forget that in 1966 it was illegal for an interracial couple to get married, the hate crimes that are committed every day, & how it is still illegal for gays to get married. it was not so long ago that women had no rights.
it boggles the mind how some white people think that we have evolved, like because we are "free" that it's over. it can never be over. at some point every race has been (or will be) enslaved. history (just like me) repeats itself over & over & over. the only way to stop it is to learn from the mistakes. if one race or kind of people are mistreated then we are ALL mistreated.
slightly off topic story: it was MLK Day & i was in the 2nd or 3rd grade (ie we were old enough to know better). i was (of course) the only minority in the class. the teacher handed out a drawing of Martin Luther King jr. she said, "Be sure to make him black". i get out a brown crayon & get to work. i finish, & look up to find that every one else had used their black crayon. the teacher never said a word, like it was the most normal thing in the world. sometimes i think about that day.
