Not being able to walk in the pit of the hood and not being able to wear a du-rag and hang your jeans off your ass without getting laughed at is "suffering"?
What's being beat up by 4 white guys you never met, seen, or spoke to in your entire life only because your skin has more melanin than theirs - WHILE you were walking home from school? What do you call that?
Oh yeah, if you think this is some remote refference to some obscure event it isn't, this is something that happened to me personally which is why I'm using it as an example.

Like they'll much rather think of reasons to feel comfortable about what's going then actually get rid of it. It's kind of annoying.

who said anything about ancesters? I'm asking about white power movemets that are around TODAY. but while you mentioned that, why do you think that when times of racism are mentioned that its not today, do you believe that segregation isn't alive and thirving in the town right next door to me?

Ya, it doesn't need to be a law, because they take the law into their own hands. I would like you to stand up alone to 100+ white people saying you can't do something. My 'feelings' weren't hurt, mainly cuz I don't have feelings anymore, my point is that so many black people make it appear that they suffer and no one else does. This doesn't apply to Apexx necessarily.
Please tell me how much you suffer from segregation now or have in the past. You all say we suffered! Ya, how many of you have suffered? Sure your race has, every race has, but have you?

Have I suffered from segregation? ABSOLUTELY!! "Segregation" is a term for an era in the 60's. The spirit and principals of segregation are still alive and well today man. It's completely invisible to you because you'll never in our life be affected by it. I've gone into countless places where it was made pretty evident that I wasn't wanted, needed, invited, or appreciated, and this isn't exactly the 1960's. I was the only black kid in my entire school in 5th grade, and, those around me made it pretty evident, I'll just leave it at that, since I don't care to discuss it.
P.S. if anyone really and honestly feel that being called a nigger is the same as being called an asshole, wow. That's all I can say. Wow. You really need to get out of your house and see things.
