July 18, 2006How to Suppress Discussions of RacismIf you spend any time discussing race online, the tactics in this how-not-to guide may be painfully familiar: How to Suppress Discussions of RacismPosted by jsmooth995 at July 18, 2006 3:41 PM Comments
LOL! omg this is brilliant, especially since I was just the recipient of EXACTLY this kind of suppression of dialogue about race at the hands of another blogger. She must have read this and followed it word for word. Posted by: Carmen Van Kerckhove at July 18, 2006 5:45 PM It also works as a good way to squash discussions of sexism (I learned this a few months ago on a gaming board). Posted by: janine at July 19, 2006 10:25 AM Funny.... I guess even bloggers on this site can be ill-equipped to discuss topics in which they lack understanding. Posted by: liz at July 19, 2006 2:00 PM Oops..I inadvertenly left out " too"....should read " too ill-equipped" Posted by: liz at July 19, 2006 2:11 PM Today is the day for typos...forgot the "t" in inadvertently...no more typing today... : ) Posted by: liz at July 19, 2006 2:23 PM Liz, those were not this site's bloggers, those were commenters! Big difference! :) And yes, commenters pop up here with that stuff anytime I raise the issue. Check my old King Kong and LOTR posts.. Posted by: jay smooth at July 20, 2006 1:48 AM Thanks for the clarification, Jay Posted by: liz at July 20, 2006 1:13 PM Very clever JSmooth!!! Turn the beat around. I love it. Thanks. Posted by: Licia at August 10, 2006 4:52 PM remember your african origin,the heart of the earth isn't the u.s.a, but see not the color black or white or yellow, it's not importante, it's wrong problem. politic, money, power,media,are the problem. your welcom in france.a ( sorry for my writter, i don't speak english, i don't understand all) Posted by: s at August 17, 2006 3:57 PM What you mean there are theives out there in the music industry??? Punk ass dream stealing bitch!!! Whewww, had to vent. That was just lousy. Posted by: Licia at August 24, 2006 3:35 PM In response to "s" I love my african origin unfortunately some Americans do not, which is obvious, one word "Katrina" the flood in Louisana, if you were not aware. 100's of thousands of blacks and poor people were just left ass out and still have yet to get compensated for damage done. It is important for there to be racism here because that way people feel like they are superior and can do their dirt. It is a necessary evil in America, plain and simple. Posted by: Licia at August 24, 2006 3:45 PM people without shelters in the south of the USA, it is sad, and I am of any heart with them, but it is a disaster caused by nature, your government, it is all the days which it destroyed people, in Africa, in Iraq, and it list is long! I hope that the louisianne will be left there, in the USA, there is of the assistance only for the rich person unfortunately, and that is unacceptable. the black people would have worn of his energy to make change that! really gather, true the value of the life does not hide in a pair of tennis shoe nike or a hamburger! you includes/understands me!you like a country which leaves you of with dimensions! me I does not include/understand travel has the exterior of the USA, thus the economic capacity of the USA will drop, and that of the other country (afric, Asia...) will increase. i hope Posted by: "s" sarah at September 4, 2006 4:18 AM I understand you loud and clear. Except for the travel has an exterior part??? As far as blacks wearing out or getting tried trying to make a way out of no way, we are a very resilent and strong people who have been through so much throughout humanity we will survive, hey, hey. If you know what I mean. Posted by: Licia at September 13, 2006 7:20 PM I believe to include/understand you, that I say, it is that it is necessary to travel to Africa, because the afroamericains lost their identity. Posted by: sarah at September 15, 2006 8:15 AM I understand what you are saying. YOu are saying Posted by: Licia at September 26, 2006 9:27 PM Oops, I mean keep "us" separated.
