Everytime someone makes a thread saying why do black ppl say white kids cant wear hip hop clothes, do you see me coming in saying "well white ppl are racist too". NO, you see me defending the right to have your own identity. I swear, people know damn well the shit white power stands for. Everytime someone says it people die and get hung or jumped or shit like that. Everyone here KNOWS its true, but they're too damn proud to admit it. Who are the black power ppl on this site? Me and socrates right? We're also the ones who make threads for our own race's faults. I never seen a white person do that shit.

I'm not for White Power, I'm not for any power. I think it's all just fuckin' retarded.
And in all honesty, if you wan't the word to dissapear, you gotta start but taking it out of your vocabulary as well.
Most people hear the word in rap songs and don't know the historical significance behind it. Thing is they've allready heard it enough and it's influenced them to say it, and once they realize what the word means and they see a black person they don't like, they'll use it.. Shit happens, people don't think. Not saying it's the right thing to do, but it happens..
If black people are so concerned about being called the "n" word, they gotta quit sporting it themselves. Do you ever hear a white person use the word in songs? Unless they're a fuckin' no name piece of shit that nobody will hear anyways..
Like even saying black and white people is fuckin' retarded, but it was basically impossible to not say them in this post..
Morgan Freeman put it best..

Morgan Freeman says the concept of a month dedicated to black history is "ridiculous."
"You're going to relegate my history to a month?" the 68-year-old actor says in an interview on CBS' "60 Minutes" to air Sunday (7 p.m. EST). "I don't want a black history month. Black history is American history."
Black History Month has roots in historian Carter G. Woodson's Negro History Week, which he designated in 1926 as the second week in February to mark the birthdays of Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln.
Woodson said he hoped the week could one day be eliminated — when black history would become fundamental to American history.
Freeman notes there is no "white history month," and says the only way to get rid of racism is to "stop talking about it."
The actor says he believes the labels "black" and "white" are an obstacle to beating racism.
"I am going to stop calling you a white man and I'm going to ask you to stop calling me a black man," Freeman says.
