Racist against your own kind!

Racist against my own - Why do they act like this towards us...I hate us. We act so stupid and we wonder why no one like us!

The reason for this and I am being so honest is that I hate other African Americans....NOT all of them but just a few of them. They act so poor and so black and I REALLY do hate to say this but it needs to be said. Black people (yes I said BLACK people) are so ghetto. I hate it when they sag their pants and not ALL blacks do this other races too. I hate it when they yell out to me ....."lil mama' hey lil mama' you know you hear me talking to you"They do all this stuff like "Not have a job", "Have about four kids" and "don't graduate from highschool to pursue a job as a drug dealer" Most Black women and men don't read very well but know every song on the radio and can do every dance on the video. They take their health for granted. If you go into the nieghborhoods of Blacks you will never find a fitnes center but you will find beer stores and a church on every corner. I'm going to end this right now but I will speak about it later. Add me as friend to keep up because this discussion is not over. I hate my own race! WITH A PASSION!

I am white and I see the exact same issues with white people so I don't think it is a racial issue at all. I know many white people that act just as you described.

They have called blacks n*ggers as lower class or bad people.Well excuse me then there are white n*ggers,red n*ggers,yellow n*ggers and any other color person you can find.There are good and bad in every race.Like I said Iam not prejedous but Iam pretty ticked off right now about how how government and soceity what illegal alliens to stay here and be excused from stealing our benefits and tax dollars that are used to pay for these benefits.The majority of these people are of hispanic origin,many different countries.But,there are also the hispanic people,some that I have known for years,that came into this country the right way,filling out the right papers,paying fees to who they were supposed to and so on.Those people are even mad about the people that are doing things illegally.I know some good people that are black,red,yellow and white that are good people and they also dislike the people in those origins that are not good too.

I have to agree with you on this, but I wouldn't say I HATE my own race. I just tend to say that I hate those of our race that are ignorant and are not willing to better themselves or to act like they have some sense....lol. I will be checking back and reading your responses because this is a big issue and I'm glad that you had the courage to start this discussion.

I don't hate them. It's just about two or three of them that I can't stand. LOL! It's embarrassing and I wish others would feel me on this!

it really is a "people issue" not a color issue and I do know just what you are talking about. The type of people you describe come in all colors.

Iam white,part Cherokee.My ancestry also shows that I am also part Irish,English and Scotish.Iam not racist against anyone,but I do get really aggravated at people that come to this country and expect our soceity to change to their ways or think that our language should change to theirs.And they do not learn English.They come here illegally and expect to take advantage of our tax paid benefits.And then when our local government says something about it,they are called racists.

Yes..I AGREE with you! I hate going into the grocery store and reading the english label and seeing the spanish one. If I were to go to Mexico there will be no translation there for me at all so lucky for me I'm fluent in Spanish.

that is very BAD learn to appreciate your ethnicities whatever they are, realize that many of the very things that might seem tasteless or annoying to you might be the very things that made that ethnicity survive in past times soooooooooo, just cuz you was boogie or somethin, always remember your roots, whatever they are

Remembering your roots is just like NOT forgeting where you came from and I have already made and will make another promise to ALL BLACKS everywhere that I WILL forget where I came from! This way I will never return. I do not appreaciate my ethinics but I do understand those before me that made it possible for me and other blacks to live this way. It's not me that is disrespecting my background it's those who stand up for it the way it is today! Martin Luther King didn't die for us to where gold teeth. He fought for African Americans to be able to work and have EQUAL education. When was the last you went to a library to educate yourself?

To harbor Hate in your mind is detrimental to your health. Stop Hating and Look for the Perfection in Everything.Yes Everything is Perfect, Just the way God Made It! Try Loving your fellows, and notice the improvement in your well-being.These (hated) black People are on the Path to God, (as we all are.) They are not as far along that Path, but they Are on It too! When you can realise this, it helps you to understand where they are coming from. Then you can better see the Perfection in It, and begin replace Hate with Love. This world is a mess because of Hate! What the world needs now, is Love Sweet Love!

That's the problem! GOD is all up in your head and it's not GOD that's messing you up it's the preacher who tells you these things! Blacks use GOD as an excuse to be lazy. Wake up already and take a look around you. Notice the difference in a "mostly white community" and a "mostly black community". Whites go to church and get out on time and then use the mind and abilities that GOD gave them to become successful and black people are just waiting on GOD to drop a million dollars into their hands. What the world needs is you to stop messing with those BLACK PEOPLE so you can fimally see what difference it will make in your life. I'm really no a racist at all but I hate my race because they all (most of them) act if they live in a third world country! You need to stop talking to the preacher barehugs and do something better with your time.

You know poor people don't have the working capital to build their own fitness centers and health food stores. Do you think these ghetto black people are born this way? Is it a genetic defect? Why do you think these people are behaving the way they are? How did you manage to learn to read and write so well?
• United States

I know how to read and do the things I do because I went to school to learn and not to just get out the house. This isn't a genetic defect at all but it does run through the family. LOL! Add me as a friend and I'll keep you posted and tell you what it all means when I write a topic called "You are your mothers daughter"

Every race has people that aren't the cream of the crop. It's about being poor more than the color of their skin. The sad thing is that they always manage to end up on television.

An interesting post, I am white but I stayed in Africa for a while and have many African friends, recently one of them visited me here in the UK. You know what? They can't stand the black folks here! They said they would much rather hang out with white folks here cause the black folks are so full of hate for them. Then I was walking down the road with an African friend and these two black guys walking up the other side, started shouting, "Hey, what you doing with that white man, *****" Now, that's racism! Maybe, it's different stateside but most people rub along together here, regardless of race or religion, except some folk who get it in to their head that there is a problem then they see hatred where no exists. all the best urban

Well, I'm a little white girl so I have no idea how you feel. :) But, I understand disliking the majority of "your people" and the way they portray your race. We white beings have the tendancy to be looked at as selfish, cruel, money hungry, snobs...which in many cases is true. I've never been the one to look down on other races, or anyone for that matter, more like just being irritating with a certain kind of person. Most people are too frightened or ashamed to admit they aren't particularly proud of their race, especially these days for Blacks. For them, it's supposed to be all about "black pride" and whatnot. It's not the easiest thing in the world to disagree with your heritage.

i feel you may have a very strong point here . you know where i come from alott of black people do not claim to "act" ghetto they say that that is who they are. and then they have a tendacy to get mad at people of other national orgin and ethnic back round when they say black people are stupid . either they really are stupid and do not know that acting ghetto is considerd retarded or they are afraid to admit that they dont know how to be proper and live in the civilised world with the other 65% of black people in america i also feel that maybe your words are a bit strong . do you honestly hate some black americans or do you hate the things that they do ? you see it's easy for anyone (espeacially me) to hate black people and on the other hand it's easy to hate the things that they do ! (thank god i'm not like that ) you have a great week and great discussion !

That is really sad. I hope you are not looking for empathy. Sounds like you have underlying issues of your own. If you expect to be accepted for who you are you should love your own people. Really we need to love everyone no matter what the race.
