"The AP said white people in general have much less shared history and culture, and don't have the experience of being discriminated against because of skin color." That is LITERALLY discriminating because of skin color.

Yeah. Bullshit! Time travel back to the early 1900's when Italians and Irish (my heritage) immigrated to the United States. They were treated WORSE than a stray dog in the streets. What about the Asians that were "imported" into this country and enslaved just as the blacks. I'm sure it wasn't pleasant getting whipped and beaten while building the early railway system out west. Don't hear them screaming and demanding "reparations". Yeah...where's the comet?? Not THAT one...it missed the friggin' planet... "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

The article is hilarious! They can't even agree among themselves what is and isn't racist! Thus the metric system did not really catch on in the States, unless you count the increasing popularity of the nine-millimeter bullet. - Dave Barry "Never go through life saying 'I should have'..." - quote from the 9/11 Boatlift Story (thanks, sdy for posting it) | |||

The language points are spot on. Factually, there is not a single "Black" culture. Look at the differences in West Indies, more recent African immigrants and American Blacks. Add to the mix differences in religion (Christian, Muslim), etc. Skin color does not equal culture. | |||

Lib media usually doesn't even use the word 'black.' They try to eliminate that word from any article where a perp is that darker shade of whiteish. Endowment Life Member, NRA • Member of FPC, GOA, 2AF & Arizona Citizens Defense League | |||

Why are we talking about "blacks". I thought that was racist. Aren't they all African-Americans?

Go ahead punk, make my day |
Lol, talk to my buddy from college, parents immigrated from South Africa and he is white as can be. So of course he claimed (rightfully so) to be "African-American". Then it got changed to African-American/Black to prevent this. If you want to see some interesting in-fighting, research the ADOS movement (American Descendants Of Slavery) - where true ADOS Blacks HATE non-ADOS blacks trying to claim they are - like Kamala Harris, etc. | |||

"One potential origin of the phrase Chinaman's chance traces it to the construction of the U.S. transcontinental railroad. During its construction, unstable bottles of nitroglycerine were used for blasting. Chinese workers would be lowered over cliffs by rope and boatswain's chairs to set the nitroglycerine in place. In this work, if they were not lifted back up before the blast, serious injury or death would result.[citation needed] According to a newspaper article in 1870, 20,000 pounds (9,100 kg) of bones from Chinese workers who died building the railroad were shipped to China for interment. The article calculated the bones were from 1,200 workers." | |||

My ancestors were Italian and Irish too, and I'm certain that none of them had anything to do with slavery, or Jim Crowe. Their only privilege was working their way out of poverty in the tenement neighborhoods of New York City, serving in the war, and achieving some degree of success after each generation. Irish were very poorly treated in the 1800's. Both immigrant cultures valued their intact families, their catholic churches, and the education of their children. Think ahead a few years, Hispanics are the majority minority now, and they will continue to grow in population (both immigration and childbirth) and drive policy in their favor. Like our Irish and Italian ancestors, Hispanics had ZERO to do with slavery in the USA, so they do not suffer from "white guilt" or feel they owe anything to anyone to make up for it. The black "leaders" are very aware of this and they don't have a whole lot of time left... | |||

Seems it depends on the mood and whim of the described. Sometimes it's black. Sometimes it's A-A. Sometimes it's 'of color'. Yes I'll have a cup of coffee of color. You’re a lying dog-faced pony soldier | |||

I started with nothing, and still have most of it |
I have said it before on this forum and will again: the AP is as far left as any MSM body, nobody will out left them, even MSNBC and CNN. For example, they do opinion articles posed as factual news that the "demonstrators" did not increase covid cases but that churches and Trump's rally did.

They change it up every few years so anyone using the old word is a racist. Long ago Negro was the accepted proper term. Then "colored" as in the NAACP was favorable. Then it changed to black in the 60's and the earlier terms because racist old white cracker terms. Then came African American and black was no longer acceptable because "we aren't really black". Then came "people of color" which is all politically correct, but "colored people" will get you viralized on twitter until you lose your job and all your friends. Now we are back to "black" because "we aren't all African or American" and black includes Jamaicans, and Dominicans, and Haitians. When I was 2 or 3 years old I said the kid I played with down the street named Frankie was brown. Because he was, and it didn't make any difference to me because he was my friend. | |||
