How come the blacks can have all black colleges but if white people did that, it would be called racism?
If I go to an asian resturant with my asian boyfriend the waitor or waitress will bring him chop sticks and bring me a fork. I actually have to get up and go get chop sticks or ask for them. Why is that, why can't I have a choice? I know that they are trying to be nice but they could bring me both.
How is it that people can come over here to the US or any english speaking country and live here for many years and still not learn our language or even care to learn it for that matter?
What is the deal with all of the Mexicans putting Mexican flags all over everything that they own, if they are so proud of Mexico why did they leave in the first place?

Wow... you asked some of the very questions I've been pondering. Just asking them outloud could get you in hot water, though.
All black colleges, black TV, black magazines... if anyone published a white magazine or promoted a college as "white" they'd probably wind up in jail.
The rest I'm not going to touch, but not because I don't agree with you.

Thanks for your comment. I totally agree with you on that. I hope that I don't get into trouble for posting this discussion because it's a real issue. I do agree about the books, magazines and stuff like that, heck even BET, black entertainment television. Come on, could you imagine what would happen if someone tried to start a WET lol. It just seems like everyone can do it unless it's white and then it's just racist.

I certainly didn't mean to offend anyone. These are just some things that have gone through my mind. I'm not racist at all, I just wanted to know everyones opinion. I see that hardly anyone has responded. Like I said, I didn't mean to offend anyone here and if I did, then I'm sorry for that.
