View Full Version : Best friend called RACIST for suggesting "Black doll"
BahamianSign 02-12-08, - 05:18 PM One of my best friends was called a racist for suggesting that a Black doll would be better for his daughter than the European Barbie.
It's is truly astonishing that anytime a Black/Brown person requests that dolls and other images that their children see, reflect their children's ethnicity, such parents are called Racist.
No one calls a Chinese parent that support Chinese characters racist. No one calls Jewish persons pushing Jewish heritage, racist. No one calls white parents who want a white B:hammer:arbie racist.
But if you're Black and have the intellect and insight to want your child's toys and books to reflect, in a reasonable quantity, their likeness, you're racist.
People want to remain ignorant. But sadly, the world is established to keep Black/Brown people ignorant, dumb, stupid and in modern-day mental and physical enslavement!!!!:hammer:
It's this same racist strategy and vilification that keeps Black people from working together; and that keeps them from respecting and helping save Haiti and Africa. It's called Self-hate and stems from no culturally-sound education, no culturally accurate parenting, limited positive role-models and religions that teach that Black people come from SIN, as opposed to the truth, that all HUMANS come from Africa.
Big up to the Rasta posse, for except for their excessive use of certain plants, are one of the only groups that show respect to AFRICA. Everyone else would have Africa BOMBED and wouldn't care less. What a Christian and loving world? Yeah right.

royal_black_man 02-12-08, - 05:39 PM Wow, they have some real dumb @$$ people out there. How does giving you child a black doll equate to an institution based on making one race totally inferior to another ? Please don't tell me it was a black person who told your friend this ?

People are really confused. Yes, it was a Black person that told another Black person that he was racist because he wanted a Black doll, and more Black images for his child to see.
Some Black people are more racist than the KKK against their own people. Show the power of negative images, TV stereotypes, educational bias, culturally unsound education.

Lucky for me I don't have kids......but if I did and anyone ever told me something like that, I would tell them they can never be alone with my child. PERIOD. Who knows what type of anti-black opinions they'd try to put in my child's head when I'm not there. Some real stupid people out there.

Interesting you say this. I was watching the Montel Williams show today during lunch and I am serious that show was difficult to watch..ok the topic was "Im embarassed by my own race" . There was this african-american chick on the show oh god I just wanted to pull her out of the tv and slap her a few times so she can wake up! This girl is embarassed to be black she is much darker than Montel and says she's not black here's a list of reason she don't associate herself with black people:
-She dosen't think they're beautiful
-Ghetto
-Looks like monkeys
-Black girls always want your man
-Black people are poor
-Black people don't have no sort of intelligence and the list goes on
I was sitting there like is this chick serious? She is going to get what they call" a michael jackson" internal bleaching which can cause CANCER she says she dosen't care thats a risk associated with the procedure tell me thats not the sumbest thing you've ever heard? She is also getting three different nose jobs to make her nose more smaller. Montel,Robin Givens and others tried to get through her head that black is all she is going to be born and will die and no matter how many surgeries or nose jobs she get she will NOT be accepted by white people as white! She differs but this girl is insane they even went into details to tell her how much black people fought for her rights homegirl said "they haven't done anything for her and she feels stuck" I feel sorry for this girl honestly how could you hate WHAT YOU ARE?
Another asian chick was on the show this young lady went under surgery to widen her "squint" eyes she said she was tired of being called squinty and the hurtful part is she looks no different her eyes are still squint..thats another one who hates who she is?
Pharaoh 02-13-08, - 12:43 AM Yes the person who made that statement should feel ashamed of themselves, but to say that the world is trying to keep the Black/Brown people ignorant and dumb is taking it too far. The facilities are there no longer are there signs saying "Whites Only" or "No Coloreds Allowed" we as black people are keeping ourselves down. Until we change the mindset of going for the big rims, thousand girls, dangling chains and jewelry and realize that the key to getting anywhere is education,determination and ownership of anything we do. The day when the majority of us realize that quick cash is not always the solution and intelligence is actually an asset.
Marcus Garvey, H.I.M Salassie, Malcolm X, MLK they all realized that education was the way to survive and overcome the system. Don't think that education can only taught in classrooms and college's, for something to be taught it must first be discovered and understood.
And one more thing, the black man sold his own brother into slavery the white man only kept us there. And even though slavery is abolished we still kill each other to appease the "mans" system.

The joke about this whole thing is that she is easily saying some of the most stupid and ignorant comments in life, yet she calls black people stupid and ignorant.
I don't feel bad for black people who want to be white. In fact, I encourage them to continue with their quest. Get them de F@cc out of our race as fast as possible. Nobody is gonna miss dead weight. My only beef comes when we want them to be seen as black and they go around talking that nonsense and influence other black people.
I mean think about it, if that girl was white, I'd see her as an ignorant racist and call it a day. But now, because she's black, I gotta worry what her impression will leave on people about the black race. The sooner she turns white, the better.
