Alicia Keys Pulls A Reverend Wright

prof make some good points there
The only thing I'm not capable of is making a Democrat or Republican party statement. Apparently people seem to define their views in those way too much, whereas I do not. ;)
 
Sorry roronoa3000 I can't disagree with shimmy2

By the way, most of you guys probably don't even know about the "Kwata Kwata wars", so be careful when you say that black people were being shipped by the millions with tribe King's consent.

That said, I think Alicia Keyz is doing a bad move.
 
The craziest part about this indignation at Alicia Keys is that she didn't say anything about white people being responsible for anything.

I know she mentioned the government in her conspiracy, but as any Tea Party member will tell you, the government (or the "establishment") does not encompass all white people.

Alicia herself is half white. I seriously do not believe that she is racist at all.

And, yes, I would still hit that.

I'm sure someone said this, but you do know tribes in Africa would capture black people and they were black people and keep them as slaves until the European colonies started buying them from the tribesman. There's no such thing as a clean race only clean people.

Dude, I'd hit that even if she was wearing one of those old school black panther uniforms. Actually, that sounds kinda hot in a weird way.....Yeah, I know, I got problems. Wanna fight about it? :thefinger
 
LOL BeardedMenace!

Hey, wasn't "White Power for White People" part of the Black Panther Party motto?

I'm pretty sure it was part of their "All Power to the People" mantra back then.

They were affiliated with an organization known as the Appalachian Young Patriots, I think.

The Black Panther party of yesterday really despises the New Black Panther Party from what I remember. Its much the same way as how the KKK despises Nazis. Its funny how all these extremists groups try to preach brotherhood but can't seem to get along with people who have the same ideals as they do.

I think slavery is talked about more today, 2010, than ever before in the history of the country.
people should ask themselves why that is.
And does it help anyone? does it accomplish anything?

yep, lets create more anger and resentment in blacks and more guilt and fear in whites, theres a recipe for a successful future.

Sure that happened, when the Europeans still hadn't show their true intentions in the beginning of the trafficking, those were the times where the Europeans could only take a few Africans back to Europe on their boats...the times in which they were still duping the African Kings (who actually thought they had gained new and foreing allies) and people into thinking they were fair and full of good intentions.

Well in my country they say: "The one who's full of good intentions is the Devil" and no, that is not my declaration of hate. It is to show that Africans fucked up as soon as they decided to "trust". Because you see, African's are no different than Asians or Native Americans or Europeans, they also practiced slavery against one another (black kings with black slaves) and they also tried to conquer each other's lands.
Things got out of hand when the African Kings decided to do business with Europeans and started trading slaves with whatever the Europeans would bring them (clothes, mirrors, wine, etc).

Then religion came into the game, yes, Christianity (catholicism to be precise), and psychology tactics started being played, the Europeans started telling the Kings that they were different, closer to them than their subordinates (Kings started getting European nationalities and beingattributed high European positions) and while the King was being fooled, the Europeans started rampaging the African people from the villages, that's when the Kwata Kwata wars started.

I do agree with your last statement, that there is not such a thing as a clean race and only clean people, but there are "not so clean" people who do think in terms of race (blacks, asians and whites alike) and unfortunately most "not so clean people" have power, so there.

PS: When it comes to African history, I'm free to provide information anytime and anyday.

I have to say no to this particular theory. Most black people I know told me that they don't really give a rats ass about slavery as much as they do the events that came after it. I believe its a common misconception that slavery is the main thing that gets under their skin. But hell, I'm just going off what I have been told.

It is actually as you're saying Bearded_Menace. The problem is not slavery or history, that stuff, even I who am fully Africa with parents that were both born in a colonial era don't care about anymore. The problem lays in the lack of more contact between the races meesterperfect, in my opinion at least.
 
I don't know what you're trying to make a point about, but you need to stfu and read a history of the U.S. along with American music and cinema. I doubt you know anything about country music too.

Yeah once again, stfu.

No, I´m not STFU, I"m Know history more than you, and of course I don't know anything about country music ( I hate it) !:thefinger
 
This reminds me a little of the "neo-plantation" bullshit theory academics have ascribed to the NBA and other sports leagues. To be fair, however, Alicia never claimed that rap was a "white construct."

Somewhat on the side: supremacists of all brands (be they white, black, asian) are generally people who have so little to contribute to society at an individual level that they need find identification with a "superior" group for esteem. They are, more often than not, the scrapings of the relevant gene pool.
