Stating black are over sensitive, need to sit and need to get over the past. You need to expand your horizons and borders, you don't know the entire GP and atrl on here is apart of the general public as well. There are plenty of people who I have met as well as other blacks and minorities who have come across plenty of times this mindset, you probally are shocked or don't experience it because you aren't a minority. And who said anything about having to appreciate slaves every month how about a little respect towards my race which has not been shown in this thread by the least bit, you see what you want to see. And it's sad

While "getting over" the past is, I agree, a little insensitive, the opposite is true of living in the past, which seems to be what some people are getting at
This thread started off as being about a video of a black girl dancing and rapping, and someone had to drag in slavery and how insensitive white people are to slavery
when in fact, most people aren't, but it's simply fact that slavery ended a century + ago, and that if we want to talk about problems and making the black community better, maybe it would be better to pertain to some relevant recent history, like the drug problems and gang violence, not to mention the cycle of fatherless homes and poverty, and are keeping the community down
but just so you know, I didn't report you. Mainly because I don't report, but in general I didn't read anything past the first sentence
.I don't take mess like that personally. And in general I don't feel like reading paragraphs today.
