What is the Solution to Racism?

You are such a fine example of what a Christian should be. We should all follow your example. [sarcasm]


If being a Christian meant being like you, I would never adopt that belief. Originally Posted by CuteOldGuy

I had an interesting discussion with an African American this evening. A REAL African American, from Africa. He's been in the U.S. only a few years. He's got a successful career, a graduate degree, and he doesn't whine. If he experiences racism, he ignores it, and accomplishes his goal anyway. He won't listen to anyone who tells him how hard it is to black. He doesn't see white people as an enemy. He works hard, he's pleasant and funny to be around, and he's honest to a fault. This is typical of most immigrants from Africa I've met.

The way to end racism is to not participate, whatever side you're on. Don't blame others for where you are in life. You have to decide for yourself if you are going to succeed, whatever that means to you. Jesse Jackson used to preach this, before he found out there was money and fame for him in preaching dependency.


Racism feeds on anger. It dies in the face of confidence and personal responsibility. That's the only way to end it.

We're waiting patiently!

It's easy to yell "Racism", but how would you end it? What it is the solution? Originally Posted by CuteOldGuy

BZZZZZT.. that's NOT what the question was that was asked. TO review...COG asked " how would you end it? What it is the solution?"

And after a lot of hot air and bloviating.. you failed to ANSWER the question asked.

Speaking of which.. you DO understand that there were FREE BLACKS that owned slaves.. not just the Presidents. Some of the FREE BLACKS in the north also "owned" indentured Irish servants.

So.. tell us again how only BLACKS were treated as slaves? Originally Posted by RedLeg505

I can say that about Muslims as well but organizations like the KKK proud themselves on being Christians - but where did Jesus say to hate blacks? KKK hate Jews as well I wonder wish they hell did they Jesus background came from -jeez. And the GOP is no different - the most racist people I have come across have always been reublicans.

Segregation

Lets get a comprehensive definition and then we can work for a solution... Originally Posted by JD Barleycorn

Like avoiding the use of the word "terrorist" for someone who cuts heads off!!!

Changing the subject is a popular pastime around here. Originally Posted by WombRaider

Don't you know better? Little Want-a-be-a-Womb I don't have to put you down on here ... you do it to yourself ... See above . Just like your "partner" below.

All I do is call it to your attention. Just consider them "constructive observations"!

Stop perpetuating racism.
Our government is the worst offender.
Stop identifying race other than the human race.
