Life in the South as a racially mixed or culturally mixed outsiderOr I guess some would use the term 'bi-racial'. ('Bi-cultural' is a term I'd like to think I've invented here in this space) But I have my own definitions of all of the above based on real life observation and own personal experiences in the South East regions. Examples. Take the whole goose being raised around ducks metaphor, where a gosling is raised around ducklings their whole life, eat together, play together, go to school together, and then when all grown told 'Hey, you're not a duck, you're a goose'. Now suddenly goose is expected to merge in with other geese that it never hung around when you and just doesn't culturally have much in common with. This is what many bi-racial, or culturally mixed or partially mixed people go through in the South as outsiders from other regions in that you're classified by others soley based on their own limited views of the world. Both 'blacks' and 'whites' the two extremes in racial differences, both do this in the South. Latinos aren't a dominant enough presents to really have much of any social impact in the South yet, accept on rural farms, and or certain trades. To fit in with the typical southern 'slave ship black'...you basically cannot be mixed with anything, must still look like you just came off slave ship type of African black in appearance. And also to fit in with slave ship southern type blacks, you have to speak that whole broken colonial English dialect as if ignorant or stupid. If they perceive you as being black, and you don't speak that broken, fractured, colonial dialect, than they look at you odd, assume you're educated or a undercover cop. The mentality in most urban hood areas, whether in the south or not is that if you're 'black like me' than you must reflect my own low expectations of self. In other words of not perceived to be as ignorant as they are, socially reckless, jailed, have criminal record, smoke blunts, celebrate weed and or jobless than in their minds 'Hey man you're not black!'Define self as 'nothing' then expect others who are something to live down to own self reflection of nothingness. Anyways lots more to follow, I'm in no rush, I'd be better off writing a book but don't know how so blog instead.

Blacks in the SE seem to love this whole 'We must come together' dribble, after every tragedy.
And they're the types that seem to get invited to news rooms.
Blacks in the South, have never lived as true minorities outside of their all black communities, have no idea how true white racist think or they wouldn't keep pushing that whole 'lets all come together' stuff.
You never here whites or Asians saying that after tragedies.
Only SE blacks always seem to want to 'come together' with their former slave masters.
It's a mental sickness, and those with that sickness will never collectively rise up to be anything great ever again.

Life in the SE hood areas, as non hood type of person, can be very depressing and isolatingIf you get all your life information from the news, news stories, talk radio, Fox ect, than you're probably under the impression that the majority of people deemed 'black' all live crammed up in urban housing, or other wise known as 'The hood' or urban ghetto. If you get all news and information about others from movies, and or particularly 'blacks', than you probably also automatically assume all blacks listen to vile rap, vote democrat (or even care about politics), are offended by the rebel flag, are on welfare, or if working got their job through 1990's affirmative action ect ect, are murderers and killers for no particular reason, can't reason properly, on and on and on. The media has painted a real grim picture of what a 'black' person is today, and just about all of it negative, unless under the sheets...D'oh! But besides being under the sheets, everything else assigned to being black is negative, whether male or female. I myself did not grow up in the hood, but rather grew up similar to 'Leave it to Beaver'...two parents, siblings, order in the house, dinner time, breakfast time, stay at home mom, nice clean neighborhood. But I'm not the only one, there are 10's of 1000's of other 'blacks', or mixed citizens like myself, who are not 'urban', but rather rural or suburban. We were not raised on a welfare farm, were not raised to glorify criminals, were not raised to hurt others and so forth. But sadly we get lumped in with the decadent urban class simply by visual proxy. And it sucks, cause once you move away from whatever small town or area from, people just generically lump you as being urban and dumb. Other blacks think you're dumb, and hold you to very low expectations, and so do many whites, only whites are more careful about how they keep you down, they do it subversively, under cover. So in other words whites who don't know you think their inherently better than you, as such you're not worthy of their companionship, and other 'blacks' raised in urban areas, despise you, but really despise 'self', but cause you're a reflection of them, they despise you also. And is why the word 'ngga' is so commonly used by loser's in the hood. To stupid to let go of colonial derogatory slave language. AdviceIf you're a black person, person of color, mixed, whatever, and are from rural country, I advise you stay there. You will be much happier there than you will around other urban blacks who 80% seem mentally damaged. Or if you do move to the city, make sure you're able to live in nice area around working class people, with jobs, who went to college or were in the military, but at all cost avoid living around, next to, hood types, welfare types, single mother types, thug types, cause all they'll do is bring you down. They'll forever hold you to same low standards they've set for themselves, and will never see you as anything great. It's a mental sickness.

Why do black women love to date, or have the kids of mentally, socially, crippled males?As you navigate in and around the hood areas, in stores, shopping, driving, observing the sidewalks, apartment complexes ect. One thing you begin to notice real quick, and daily is how black females in the hood always seem to date, go out with, fornicate with, then have babies by hood males who are mentally, socially, and spiritually crippled, In other words thug types. Women, regardless of where they live, what class, always tend to dress glamerous, even women in the hood areas still manage to dress 'OK', or even better. It's like a universal female language that if one is a female, regardless of circumstance you still have to dress 'glam'. But one also notices that in the hood areas, behind every glam dressed black female is a bull dog in tow, the bull dog being the thuggish boyfriend with white tank top, and long basketball jersey shorts, over sized tennis shoes ect, that whole hood gutter look. Seems that after the year 1995, black males in the hood just stopped maturing above the age of 20, and forever have, dress, like a 15 year old living at home with mamma. And then wonder why perceived the way they are. I say 'They' cause I wasn't raised in that environment, or with that mentality, so 'they' are not me, or others like myself raised on a different front. Anyways, back to black women. It's sad to always observe their choice of man, as if afraid to reach for better. In the black, or former slave communities, especially in the South, as a result of slavery, and Willy Lynch programing, most black families now days are matriarchal, ran by females, like elephant herds. Like elephant herds, the urban black family basically consists of females... 1.Mom, Grandma, Auntie, Sister, Cousin. In the urban black family, the male has all but been excluded from that equation, and like elephants, is only used for breeding..or plays the 'Bull's role'... Once the black thuggish male breeds, gets female pregnant, female then drives him off, sends him on his way, or male commits crime, goes to jail. Or male is driven away by other females in the pack who since getting Government money, have no need for alpha male to make decisions and become annoyed by their presence. The urban black female has been generationally trained to not need a black male figure in life. And black male has been subconsciously trained to leave after impregnating woman...and to get arrested and go to jail as an excuse for why not able to be around. It's a sick pattern you observe over and over again in the hood. When shopping you rarely if ever see Dad, Mom and kids all shopping together, in the hood, all you see is Mom, Aunt, and daughters...like the elephant picture above. And more rare in this new urban reality is Grand Fathers...you never see the old grey haired grand dad anymore in the hood. Cause most males in the hood don't live that long. In closing, this is just a glimpse into inner city, section 8, housing voucher type of hood culture. There are many educated and socially, spiritually black families that are as intact as 'Leave it to Beaver's family was. But I'm not really around those types now, and can only right about what's directing in front of me. Lot's more to follow.

I think we all form our identities early on in life, like from birth till maybe age 10-12 or 14, after that everything you relate to from that time forward will be what you saw, were around, prior.
No matter how old you get, your identity will come from what you saw, were around, from age 0-14 or so.
If 'white' and raised around Indians from 0-14, you'll always think you're Indian or be comfortable around Indian people or culture.
If black or mixed, and raised in rural whitish area, than for rest of life rural white areas, people, will always be who you are on the inside.
Your subconscious isn't colored, it's conscious, like a mirror.
You form your identity by what you see and hear early on, regardless of if Chinese, African or European ect.
And is why I'll never ever ever be comfortable around urban areas, large groups of black males who act thuggish.
Physical features, mannerisms, the older I get the less I can relate to any of it.
As a person of color I was raised around less colonial blacks than even the whites down here were.
Whites raised in the South East, around large black populations are probably more comfortable being around, seeing blacks, than many blacks, mixed, people of color raised in rural Montana or Idaho or Oregon are.
You can be black, and have a phobia of other blacks, at least street types.
Add to that current horrors of crime and violence, and it can be down right nightmarish at times.
It's not blind 'racism', it's more like natural programing.
But you don't notice it until you're raised around people not physically like yourself, and get older.
It's a weird accidental experiment that many go through, and some are able to reflect on later in life.

Lease expires soon, if I had 1 million dollars all problems solved, I'd simply move, no big deal.
But when you don't have a million dollars, and got to finance things like regular mortals, moving can be a big hassle and ordeal.
This thread is titled 'Life in the South as a culturally mixed outsider'.
If one is 'white', the South is the South, no big deal really, can blend in anywhere, even if one fakes it.
But if one is one of many various shades of 'black', it's a different story.
Why?
Cause whites will never fully accept you and you'll be dumped upon other 'slave ship' type of blacks who look at you odd.
So being 'mixed' not just ethnically, but also culturally, puts you in very odd spot.
Whites have this funny notion that all people designated as 'black' all get along, all have same values, same customs, habits ect.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
A black person raised in rural Nebraska will have very little in common from a slave ship black raised in Ocala, FL swamp land.
In fact A southern raised white, probably has more in common culturally to southern blacks, than does a black or mixed person does from the North or mid west.
Southern blacks and whites may not openly mix or intergrate as a norm, but both come from same culture and understanding.
It's a unity thing.
The closer you get to the Dixie line black blood lines run more pure, do to segregation of the past, and that still exists today.
So to them, if you don't have same dark chocolate skin tone, slave ship skin tone, than you're an alien.
At least to the hood types, uneducated types who've never traveled or been anywhere.
I want to move, but some times I think mystical perfect place in my mind that I want to move to just no longer exists.
Often we create perfect community in our minds, when in reality it just doesn't exist.
Any how mood has changed suddenly and no longer feel like writing.
I never got to main point of post.

Male fashion in the hoodIf you're a black male, male of color of Afro decent or %, in other words if one has any 'negroid' features about them, their choice of acceptable fashion in the hood will be very limited. For some reason black males, of all people living in modern society, have the most narrow allowable fashion range than all other people. There was a brief time when every day average black males stepped out of this box, from about 1965-1990, after that it was back to or led to plain, dry, thuggish, stripped down and bare street style, popularized by rap, and the image it projected in the 90's.. Now the only way a black male can really have fashion range, outside of dressing in plain thug shirt and pants, is if one either. 1. Was never raised around urban environment 2. Moves far far away from urban environment and people with that mentality 3. Earns so much money, like a music artist, that dressing with more sophisticated flair is apart of the act. Other than that most urban black males are thrown into the plain white tank top, long baggie shorts, style of dress, and then forced to walk around acting tough as leather at age 5. There is no freedom in the hood for black males, none, it's all so scripted, and all based on a fragile insecurity of self, and what it means to be manly. It's all fake. But when being tough is all you've got, and no money, no job, not in college, no car, than being tough becomes everything. One the other hand white males, across the spectrum of 'white', have way more cultural and stylistic outlets. White males can get away with stretching their artistic design flair as much as women can, but black males cannot, not without having their sexually orientation brought into question. And you gotta ask yourself why? Why are white males, in many cases, allowed by society to sometimes dress, look, more feminine than even females (at least when younger) and no one ever thinks their gay, but rather looks at them as being 'expressive, young, vibrant and creative', or broad thinking. Or as just being a 'cute phase', yet if a black males dresses (at least in the South East or near most urban areas, like that, he's tagged as being gay, and approached or ridiculed. Black males have more of a goblin image, and no matter how you dress up a goblin, a goblin is still a goblin. And that's kind of all people, society, wants from black males, to always represent the most basic of human nature, and not capable of more. That's all black women want from black men, and that's all white society wants from black males, is to basically play the role of the mindless mule. You know, good for breeding, working in the fields, and that's about it. And sadly the advent of rap videos and imagery has reinforced this image as a marketing tool to sell stuff. But it comes at a price, a heavy price. No one was born to be a monster, yet society has laid this role unto black males. And most black males, rather than fight it, have just embraced it, with the whole 'ngga' terminology and mindset. And as such self loathing goes up, and is externalized through violence. Example It's easier for a black guy to shoot another black guy than it is for a black guy to shoot a white guyNow why is that? I mean isn't that how cops supposedly think also? The devaluing of life occurs when one continually defines self as a monster, ye sure it benefits a few in the entertainment industry who have to act tough as nails to sell albums and maintain cred, but to the vast majority of black males just growing up on the streets, such a monster images has been very destructive, even effects how sentences are handed out. Image is everything, image is really all people have, cultures have, cause visual image is the first thing our brains process about another. Anyways, it will never ever change, long ago I thought it could, would, but it won't. Those in the hood who perpetrate that image will continue to do so till the end of civilization, and those who reject that definition of self just have to leave, if able to, and go to place where people allow you to be whatever you want to be. But like shooter in Virginia, that black guy who shot those white reporters, often the damage is done early on. The low self esteem, the 'shame' of being black, and being conscious of that, so that even when allowed into mainstream still feel persecuted. Still feel that everyone hates you cause 'you're black'...when in reality such people have been taught to hate themselves, and project their own self hate onto others. It's a symptom of very low self esteem, never being loved, thus never learning how to feel whole, and other things we have plenty of time to discuss and explore later.

If hood natives, those who know nothing else but corrupt hood culture, want to walk around looking mean, acting tough and nasty, that's their business, but what bugs me is when they expect others, who are more enlightened, to do the same. Sorry, life is short, I was raised to be happy, not to be perpetually in a bad sour mood all the time. It's one reason why I'm so repelled by anything hood now, cause I see the day to day effects it has on people, their mood, outlook and spirit, and it's not good. The hood is nothing like a gitzy rap videoSorry, but the real street hood, reality, is nothing like this at all. For one, if you have money you're certainly not going to flash it or you'll get robbed. And for two you do not find tall, model appearing women in the hood. In the hood, do to poor health habits, poor eating habits, and very sloppy breeding habits, most of the women are short. No one in the hood flashes gold and jewelry around, what a no no. You never make yourself a target in the hood by flaunting what you have while others are barely getting by. People who make rap videos have long since left, departed, from the hood and live in gated communities around white people, or others of fiscal influence and stability. Back to smiling and being happy. It's sad that people in the hood, even women, are conditioned early on not to smile or give outward appearance of happiness...why? Cause there's so many low life predators in the hood that an outward appearance of joy means you're a sucker. If you're a female who's happy, optimistic and happy, thug low lifes exploit that and get them pregnant and wreck their lives. And if you're a younger male who's happy go lucky and smiles and enjoys life.. 1. stupid goblin hood types think, assume your gay. 2. women of the hood think, assume your gay. 3. Or they think you're high and on drugs. But if young and white and smile and are happy, these same hood goblins assume you're just being 'normal', and like that. Hood people are sick, in that they condemn other blacks, hood folks, when they display same personality traits 'whites' do. Some kind of sick self hatred, low expectation thing or something. The hyprocrasy will blow your mind. And is why the whole 'black lives matter' crap is such a sham. Hood blacks don't even value other black lives, yet yell at whites and others to. Don't ever move to the hood, near other hood people, if black or person of color or single. If you move around the Klan, they'll treat you better.

To continue from up above, the Klan will even treat you better than your suburban closet white racist, you know, the types who live just on the edge of town.
Some of the most racist people you can imagine live here.
Believe it or not I much more prefer the open hostility, rage, open ignorant behavior of the Klan, than I do closet suburban racist types who cross the street if they see you approaching, or who wait in vehicle when they pull up, until you remove yourself from bench, and other subtle stuff like that.
These people, if a vet, that you risked your life for, then come home, and they imply things about you that are totally unfounded, yet closer examination of their own failed lives often shows when it comes to character you stand higher.
It's an individual thing, so I can't speak for others, only myself..
I'm probably openly more critical on urban blacks, than most 'whites' are, but just cause I am, doesn't mean I'll turn around and excuse the behavior of snot noised suburban white racist types, who love you at work, pretend to, but after work don't be caught anywhere near where they live. They just blanket your character with insulting negative assumptions.
Stuff like this makes me not care what the hell happens to America, when as a person of color, I know so many in it are rotten and think unjustified ugly things about others without any evidence.
It's also why it's getting harder and harder for me to believe in a loving divine God who created all, and or one spirit.
I know longer believe God resideds in 'whites', cause if God, (at least the God of the new testament) resided in whites most wouldn't be now, or in the past, so god awful racist.
I'm in the middle in that I have no use for hood type of blacks, nor do I have the need for suburban closet racist type of whites who insult you with unfounded blanket character accusations, walk around all scared and paranoid that you're going to rob them in places where it makes no logical sense.
Usually these prissy older suburban women who have been shielded and protected, part of the protected class their who lives, and whom I guess feel insulted that they even got to dwell on planet with other people of color.
If these are the type of snot noised closet racist types who habitat America, than I really can't say I care what becomes of nation.

I'm spent, feel drained, was off all week but still feel drained. I wish I were already retired and lived in a gigantic Mansion with marble floors way up in the mountains 20 miles away from everything.
I could spend the rest of my life in such a place. I have no desire to impress man anymore, to impress institutions, I know I can't, so work just seems like a waste of time now.
Anyways, feel drained, not in writing mood.

If one is black, or considered as such by a 'racist', they'll never consider you as being a full citizen in nation and having same concerns and cares they might, or even more
Racist divide the nation, or see the nation in terms of 'color'.
In other words to them, America is 'white', and if you're not white, even though born in American, you're not a part of their 'team' or have their same concerns or love of nation.
Racist resent brown skin immigrants mainly cause those same immigrants aren't 'white'.
They see everything in terms of color, DNA, like Hitler did.
If you're black, and love nation you were born in, as they supposedly do, that means nothing to a racist.
They're more interested in protecting a or the 'white homeland', and if not white, in their view, than you can never logically be apart of that homeland and will always be considered a anomaly.
Thankfully though, their view point, is not 'the law' of the land in that whether they like it or not, there are millions of native born Americans of different colors who probably love nation more than racists do, and go after problems, not based on other peoples coincidental DNA, but rather behavior, ethics and value system.
Racist are incapable of seeing people as individuals, and instead hardwired to clump people together based on categorizing by generic racial identity.
And another ideological trait racist have or like to use is 'statics'. They lack the ability to see others as individuals
To a racist, if your 'black' than you're just like every other nightmarish black in their mental catalog. If one 'black' is a thief, than so are you. If one black 2000 miles away, robs a bank, than you're just as guilty as they are and will do the same.
Racist see everyone as being apart of a collective, all connected together based on coincidental DNA, the same way insects function, or Bees, Wasps, ants, where one is the same as all.
But in reality, at least for humans, that's not even close to being true.

I don't feel that police protect me, I've never felt protected by the police.
Can't think of a single situation where they were there to protect me as something bad occurred, or about to.
They seem to only show up after something bad has occurred, or after someone has already hurt you.
At night, when crossing parking lot, after parked, there is no cop around to protect me or insure my safety.
The cops will only show up after something bad occurs, and then if you defend yourself with a gun, you to will get arrested and dragged downtown.
So not sure how I'm suppose to look at cops as being my own personal hero's.

I've never felt safe around a copIf anything, whenever I'm around a officer, I feel they want to shoot me, probably more than the average criminal does, do to their initial conditioned fear of my looks. Many police are prejudice on drugs, prejudice magnified by 10, with guns, taser's and courts on their side. No cop has ever made me feel safe when those blue lights come on behind vehicle do to some perceived minor traffic violation. How does the following make me feel safe?... 1. You're already dealing with fiscal hardship, just trying to get to work, go to store ect and officer pulls you over..(ye I feel safe alright) 2. Cop is stone cold, could care the less about your own personal schedule, asks for papers, then returns to their vehicle. 3. Comes back, already knows everything about you, but pretends not to, asks you questions to see if can catch you in a lie. 4. Then issues ticket, which further complicates your life, creates more hardship...ye that really makes me feel safe. Then you drive to home, step out of vehicle and get robbed by true bad person, and cop who wrote you ticket no where to be seen or found and doesn't respond for 30 minutes or more. How does that make me feel safe? Most are victims of cops and bad guys...caught in the middle.

Can understand 'Conditioned black on black hostility, more than I'll ever be able to understand white on black hostility or racism
If one is 'white' and 'beautiful', and actually believes that, than not sure why a person who believes they were born atop the social/biological life chain, would then feel the need to lash out, be racist, mean, cruel, towards others.
White racists don't make sense to me, black people who are racist towards other black people make more sense to me.
Blacks who are racists towards other blacks usually are that way cause
'How dare you embarrass me like this, you're making me look bad, you azz!'
Where as a white person never has to worry about ever being mistaken for a thug or goon or ect.
They're white, and as such not expected to mingle with blacks.
So what's the beef?
Where as blacks, or people of color who look black, are lumped in with the worst of black stereotypes and people. And many resent that, always being misrepresented by thuggish, goonish, food stamp, housing project blacks. So resentment builds over always being dragged into pit by others.
But if white, no such confusion or mix up ever occurs, so why the hostility towards blacks?, why the racism?
You'd think if one were white, they'd be so happy to be white (at least in the west) that their hearts would be filled with joy towards all others, or pity.
But that's not the case.
Why?
Cause not all who are white actually feel complete and whole.
Possibly continued.

One can despise more than just one type of 'evil' regardless of how it's packaged
Not sure why every thing has to be viewed as 'either or'...like either you like the Cowboys or you hate the Redskins football team..ect....why can't you like, love, or despise them both?
Now for some social examples.
Just because I don't like the Klan doesn't mean I then love street thugs...I despise both.
I despise racist, but also despise street thugs and criminals who victimize others.
Racist victimize people in one way, thuggish street criminals victimize folks in another way.
And to be honest don't want to live around neither of the two types and wish the world had neither.
Another example..
I don't like any cop that uses their powers to abuse others and act outside the law, but nor do I like thieves or robbers, whether corporate or street.
But jaded evil talk radio hosts make it seem that if you're against police officers being brutal to yourself or others, that some how you 'hate the law', and embrace chaos...
That's how talk radio hosts emotionally scam their audience.
No, a sane person can reject both officers who abuse their power, and reject criminals both and at the same time.
A sane person can respect Officers who do job properly, while at the same time have disdain for personal officer who abuses power to hurt others.
It's not 'either or'.
That whole 'either or' is an emotional gimmick that media driven radio hosts use to split and divide people of reason by playing to peoples political biases.
I can hate an evil cop, and hate a car thief simultaneously, and I can like and love a hero cop, and respect a reformed criminal at the same time.
It's not either or.
Either I love one and hate the other...but that's how talk radio and Fox have built their audiences is by framing everything as either or.
Very clever.
