You applying rules and a system and our racist society then omitting it when you want Legacy, and I am far from kumbayaaa, you have no idea. My point is I will not give up my freedom (physical freedom) by being provoked or made to follow the self-destructive nonsense.
If left to me, I would get rid of every single last human on the planet and just let nature be free of us if you really must know. All these super-conscious educated, well versed black folks for GENERATIONS are not the least bit concerned with the very planet they live on, the environment, the condition of planet for their kids and grandkids.
By definition of this country, if I have a kid with a "non-black" person, guess what that kid is black because this SYSTEM says so, it don't matter WHAT color I tell her she is.
You wrote "What exactly are you saying with this? That we shouldn't be examples for children to follow?"
I'm saying be true to yourself, your kids, other people kids, people of whatever COLOR she see you for how you are not for what you want to be perceived as.
I've went to all BLACK-militant schools in the 70's and I went to preppy almost all white school as well within same year. I am not deluded of the world I live in, nor am I a contrary person who decides well if whitey do THIS then Imma do THAT, whitey don't define me regardless of what label he may be able to give me.
The white man does not occupy a rent free space in my brain and determine my actions, while his system may make things difficult for me I see the system for what it is. Racism is a distraction created by this goverment, there is nothing heart-felt about it, it simply is good for BUSINESS and keeping the mindless masses DIVIDED.
If you know the history of THIS country and it's MOTHER country you know that color is irrelevant, they have slaughtered each other wholesale long before they saw a person of color.
The US has BRUTALLY mashed into ground any movement against government STARTED by white folks, Kent State...anyone. If Black folks march and complain and protest, that's a distraction, if white folks begin to mobilize against the government then it's getting dealt with quick fast.
The republican convention in NYC stay pounding out WHITE FOLKS, don't be no black/latino folks out there caring a damn what the republicans are doing in a city of 20+ million.
I care about my people as well but I care about people who are WORTH caring about and of the children cause they aren't aware of what's at stake here. I DON'T AUTOMATICALLY GO you black so you better than everyone else and deserve benefit of doubt no matter what you do.
It is better to be raised to a throne than born on one,.....this concept is almost devoid in our communities, we want to be kings and queens based off merit of our ancestors not cause we carry ourselves in a regal and respectful manner.
I'm proud to be Black but I don't feel i get extra points JUST CAUSE, I don't want freebie points I want what I deserve and earn so that it actually has a VALUE!!
I just read your last sentences I don't know what you're saying here either. I'm speaking specifically about intermingling. I want to build black families. Who will build black communities. You want to do your OWN thing. I don't think anyone is saying you shouldn't. I'm saying why spread that message of disunity? Because all of you, "I'm by myself, i'm not a color, i'm a man" Types. That's essentially what you're doing. You're trying to tear apart us as a people, just like the whites have been doing for a few hundred years now.
I'm not responsible for how someone chooses to read into something I say nor am I going to engage you TELLING me what I'm doing as if you know me, if you choose to see a series of "ENGLISH" words, sorry only language I write in and decide you will cobble that into "It sounds like this so he falls into this category." then by all means carry on, just like WHITEY doesn't define/diminish me, nor do you.
Me personally I would never tell someone on net I know what they are trying to do, I would ASK them what they mean, intend, are they aware of and so forth. I don't have the energy to tell someone about themselves when I have no idea who they are but only what is typed on here.
I'm just saying, are you aware you do this and do you find this acceptable to do to someone who doesn't do it to you? Notice I didn't say who does it to you, I know I DON'T tell you're TRYING to do anything and damn sure not something negative or as heinous as what you wrote.
We good though.
