I can live with a certain amount of double standards. There needs to be a United Negro College Fund, BET etc because there is a fucked up history of slavery, Jim Crow and forced migration of Indian tribes. None of that shit was good and it doesn't bother me a bit that these groups exist to further the best interests of their own in education and such...
I don't care to call anyone a nigga either, though I can't understand what type of familiarity or self deprecation drives some to call each other that..
The main problem is not that the NAACP exists or that groups will raise funds exclusively for blacks. The problem is the politicization and profiteering from race, ala Sharpton and Jackson.
Also bad is the idea that affirmative action exists just as a racial equalizer. People like Obama, Eric Holder and Colin Powell are all sons of immigrants who came to America voluntarily and long AFTER slavery... Or that affirmative action and dumbing down quotas exist for Mexicans or other voluntary immigrants.
I can live with BET and Miss Black America....
The insidious shit is the white guilters in the media and race bait pros who are willing to take a complicated case like Trayvon vs. Zimmerman and make it wholly racial. Or the quickness that critiques of Obama are chalked up to racism.
People who knowingly stir up this kinda shit are a special type of awful and need to be called out for what they are.
