Tha Q. 09-30-05 06:23 AM

I was inspired to write this...
 
I CARE ABOUT MY PEOPLE (black people), BUT THAT OFFENDS SOME RV MEMBERS. SO, I DELETED MY INITIAL MESSAGE.


Oh...and for those who're gonna say "why don't u do something instead of talk about it" I DO...Iz my profession...iz what I love doin

I educate people on their bodies...how to better them...I'm not a personal trainer per se...but I manage a sports and learning complex...

In fact...For those who ard familiar with that little team called THE REDSKINS, It's the COmplex right next to FEX ED field.

I Stopped Reading The Moment You Got To The Black And White shit.

Stop With The Fucking Racial Seperation Already.

Tha Q. 09-30-05 07:16 AM

^^Ur ignorant...most studies show a huge disparity between health risks/factors among blacks and minorities


Stop blinding urself to the truth

Tha Q. 09-30-05 07:20 AM

P.S. If you don't think race plays any role in health care and risk factors, then you're plain blind or just in denial...

while ur sittin back in "LA LA" land, minorities are dying from inadequate health care and other health factors...at DISPROPORTIONATE rates compare to whites


Keep playin dumb

leady 09-30-05 07:33 AM

im not even gonna read all that.

but whats with racial seperation??

at the end of the day, we are all one race..... the human race

we all breath the same air, have the same feelings, bleed the same color, and walk on the same land, drink the same water.

nobodies playing dumb, i understand what your saying... but actually putting a racial border between races to try and voice your opinion is even more ignorant than the reason u claim distilled is ignorant.

wow...everything, including my point, went str8 over ur head

the facts are these: a higher percentage of black people suffer from certain chronic illnesses, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease...a higher percentage of black people suffer and die from HIV...most studies show a divide in the quality of health care minorities (blacks and hispanics) receive compared to their white counter parts...Now, suffering is suffering...But, my point is for black people and minorities to educate themselves on it...

I'm BLACK...and I wrote this for my people to hear...It's sad...I see poverty everyday...I work with it...I work around it...I work in it...I deal with people who live in it...iz part of what I do...So, I'm speaking from experience here...

so all this " WE ARE THE WORLD" shit is fine...but while ur being idealistic, people are dying...I'm saying it's time to start being REALISTIC and make some changes

the Number of blacks and minorities suffering from this shit is disproportionate

Tha Q. 09-30-05 07:46 AM

P.S. of course we're all "human"...but, if blacks and minorities suffer higher percentages, how can u possibly deal with "all humans" the same?

U can't...u have to address the problem as it exists...and there is a huge problem...I work in S.E. D.C. in Washington...

almost 30 % of all men in DC have HIV

that's a problem...NOw...in ur city Leady, does 30 % of the men have HIV?


DC is a black populated place...this is the problem we're facing

so...yes...white people have HIV as well...but 30 % of the black men in DC have HIV

alarming


this is what Im talkin about

this is what needs to change...the message needs to get out

leady 09-30-05 07:57 AM

i dont look into statistics, i live every day as it comes... now your acting like i dont know about poverty... ive been to the gambia, ive stayed there, ive seen how they live, thats REAL poverty, what gives us a full meal, is enough to feed the whole family for a week there.

and you missed where i said.. i know the point your making, but......

and you act like you making this thread will make a difference, when infact it will do absolutely nothing... now i didnt read half of what u put, i just skimmed over it.

i know DC is mainly populated by blacks, i know people who live in DC, your basically just stating things that is more or less common knowledge.

more black people die from AID's(you cant die from HIV, as HIV evolves into AID's and its AID's that actually does the damage) than whites do, yes... and the majority of those black people live in depirived countries.

countries like the gambia where there own government rips them off, you will see that the gambia is a fucking shit hole(not meant in dis-respect) but it looks a mess, but u still see people in the government driving round in brand new modern mercs n shit... they dont put the money into the country, they keep it for themselves, its reasons like that, thats why more blacks die than whites, or minorities.

if you look up statistics, you will actually find that more white people are trying to help and do something about these kind of problems, where as barely any of these minority groups are attempting to help there own race.. they basically act "well we are fine, so fuck helping them"

but at the end of the day... this thread will do nothing for people, its just gonna be another pointless discussion that leads to nowhere, just like the other 50 million threads ive seen like this

Tha Q. 09-30-05 08:03 AM

^^^^stop being defensive...I didn't say white people don't care...Again...this essay is for black people..Im sayin BLACK PEOPLE need to wake up and realize hypertention, diabetes, and ehart disease are killin us off at alarming rates

the percentages don't lie...and the question begs to be asked, WHY are these rates disproportionate....u can look into economic class...w/e

Im not gonna address that...I'm telling people to educate themselves and make changes for themselves...

the fact remains that HIV in this country is spreading at a disproportionate rate among minorities..SO we as minorities need to address this for ourselves...

If u don't know the truth...u can't change a damn thing



So leady...realize the messager here is one of change...Im talkin to minorities her specifically...and nothing is wrong with that...certain things affect women, and they have their own issues...certain things affects Elders, they have their issues

These issues hit HOME with minorities...So let's not turn a blind eye to it

Tha Q. 09-30-05 08:04 AM

P.S. Leady...Don't get technical with me on the HIV and AIDS thing...u knew what I meant...ur being a prick...My degree is in Biology so I cud spin ya fuckin whig goinginto exactly how the virus infects the cell, divides and spreads...irrelevant

I k now HIV causes AIDS...U want the specific T-cell count as well?

pssf

^^Example of how ur jus arguin jus to be arguing

leady 09-30-05 08:12 AM

i never said theres a problem with u addressing it to minorities.

but again, crying about it on a forum will do what exactly??

make a few un-educated kids be like "oh i never knew that damn, ima start tryna do summin bout it" and then the next day they will have forgotten all about it.

i some what agree with what your saying... but putting something like this on a multi-cultural forum wont accomplish anything.

if you actually cared that much, you would start campaigns, rallys, maybe write an article for a world wide sold magazine and try get it published in it.

but posting on a forum will do jack shit.

and thats truth.... you tryna act like you care, infact it looks more like an attention plee and another attempt to make a few ppl think ur cool for addressing it.

yes i understand what your saying, and yes i agree with sum of what ur saying and what u say your attempting to do aswell is even good.

but if you cared as much as ur making out, u wouldnt be here talking bout it.

youd be out there doing something about it

leady 09-30-05 08:15 AM

LOL @ you... kid you know nothing about me, nore do u know anything bout what i know.... go ahead and tell me what i allready know.... seriously dude, and my comment on the HIV/AID's thing wasnt even an attempt at an argument.... but you allways take everything as an argument, you are slightly femenin after al, so maybe its that time of the month for you??? well ill leave you to it

ciao

Tha Q. 09-30-05 10:52 AM

Let me make this real plain Leady.


#1...I wrote this essay because the health and condition of minorities is a passion of mine.

#2...I do something about it...I educate people, minorities specifically, on health issues and the importance of exercise.


#3...I manage a sports and learning complex. So, health and fitness are what I do all day long.


#4...This essay was written for a very specific demograph (young minorities/blacks). Therefore, I was liberal with the rhetoric. I apologize if that offended your sensibilities.


#5...I forgot that I was on a board full of kids who'd rather talk about whose TITS are bigger than why 30 % of black men in DC are dying from HIV. And yes, they are DYING.


#6...Attacking my femininity or lack thereof? tsk tsk...I take "EVERYTHING" as an argument? <---That's a gross generalization and not true. And, I'm no more "FEMININE" than you or anyone else "CRYING" on this board about battles or one thing or the other...So, you can kill dat noise.


#7...I'm not going to argue with you over what I know...I don't blame certain people for being ignorant. I blame them for not wanting to do anything about it.
