As a person of color, I should give a dam about Confederate Statues when whites even today continue to treat blacks, even law abiding ones, like floor mats?
I don't know, I don't feel like getting negative here....but this is why I don't ever need any white person or pastor telling me anything about a Loving God.
Whites can tell me about Satan, but not a loving fair god.

I think every law abiding person of color should probably wear a body cam for own legal protection, seeing as racist who work in stores love to lie, and exaggerate about your intentions, and lying is definitely not a biblical trait or behavior, yet so many do it.  I could probably create a whole new billion dollar market just selling body cams to black shoppers. |

For all this 'Floyd' stuff lately, amazing how when 'whites' are off camera, immediately revert back to post Floyd behavior towards 'blacks', or those deemed as, amazing.
See a athletic black dude walk into a store, panic sets in, cause to hardwired passive racists here's how they see you if black and tall and healthy looking.
To a passive racist if you are the following and 'black'.
1. Tall = a villain, you're tall, so therefore you're wired to be bad from a genetic level.
2. If black, you walk into a big box store with the sole purpose to outwit store security and steal something, even though you pulled up in a Porsche, they just figure you stole that also.
3. If you walk into store wearing a suit, you're simply a criminal wearing a suit (so just wear boxer shorts, a racist will judge you the same no matter what you wear)
4. If you speak proper, and black, to a passive racist you're simply a threat, who speaks proper, and still need to be caged ASAP, is what 911 is for.
And I could go on and on.
Yet but them in front of a camera, any passive racist, and the first thing they shout is 'Black lives matter!'.
What a act, not just from passive racist, but also from 'black folks' outside of the activist bubble.
And the rest of us are just caught in the middle somewhere.

Racism has little to do with crime also, cause many 'racist' are themselves criminals, I mean like felons, in Prison, so their reason for 'hating you', if you're black, hasn't to do with 'morality'.
And it hasn't to do with them thinking you 'inferior', that makes no sense also, in that animals are inferior to man, intellectually, yet a racist will love their horse, their dog, cat, yet claim to hate 'blacks' cause they're inferior, that makes no sense, and is not honest.
I don't think you can ever make sense out of 'sin'.
'Sin" is illogical, if it were logical it wouldn't be sin.

500,000 people have died from Corona, and the world still seems crowded
500,000 dead, just from Corona, supposedly, yet the world still seems crowded, and that's not counting all the other deaths that have occurred.
And in Chicago, you'd think all the criminals would have killed themselves off by now, homocides into the 10's of 1000's, yet there seems to be no end to it.
The mothers just keep popping them out I guess...

Shopping while a minority at Best Buy store, this is why Amazon getting so much business, cause minorities can shop at home, online, take their time, and not be made to feel like Public enemy number 1, when simply trying to shop
Truth is, is if Jesus hasn't changed the basic nature of man, neither can Floyd.
People revert to their same bigoted ways as soon as 'off camera'.
And to be fair, not just 'white' folks, but everyone capable of being bigoted as video demonstrates.

I Use to think 'W' folks were beautiful
I really did use to think 'W' folks were beautiful, I mean there all I can remember from earliest of youth growing up, from earliest of memories as a child, from the earliest drawn and book, and magazine and TV images, all I saw growing up were beautiful images of 'W' folks.
Polished, beautiful images of how they appeared in older classic black and white film.
And even in real life, growing up, they still, for the most part, looked polished, together and beautiful to me, I guess I grew up initially in kind of a charmed isolated community where you just didn't see a lot of ugly behavior of any kind, and where history wasn't discussed much at all and where there was no racial strife or ghettos or anything, so in such an environment I guess it's easy to seem beautiful and together when everything is going your way.
And even for years after that I just assumed all 'w' folks were beautiful and charmed, and spoke highly of them, their culture and so forth.
Then fast forward to last recent years, and now beginning to wonder if I was wrong, now that looking back on history, now that seeing all those ugly encounters on You Tube, now when get to see how 'w' folks act, behave, and the things they say about minorities when not on film.
After being bombarded with ugly behavioral images of 'w' folks over last, say, 5 years, now I don't know, now I'm beginning to see that 'W' folks are just like everyone else.
Happy when get their way, ugly as hell when feel threatened, just like everyone else I suppose.

Case given by Trumps election Attorney's of why and how election was literally stolen from voters, you decide
I don't care who's elected, but when find out election 'rigged', then I feel, and others feel, as if we're under a rulership.
And that's not good.

Nothing worse than being 'black', or perceived as 'black' on the surface (cause that's all that matters is what people initially see, and how they perceive that, and in that instant 1000's of doors are closed per week)
But nothing sucks more for people, those, who don't relate to 'being black', yet are considered by others to be so.
It makes for a very lonely life, not so much while in school or college, but mainly when you get out and society tends to divide up into 'groups.'
And those groups are those considered white, then everyone else.
Arabs, middle Easterners can swing either way, so can many Asians.
But Indian, Mexicans, or Afro-Americans tend to be cast off into own separate group.
But even farm labor type Indian Mexicans have a culture, and aren't isolated from one another.
Where as if designated as 'black', Afro black, there is no culture other than what the latest rapper cries about on the radio.
I see people, groups, I'd so much rather be apart of that I just can't, for whatever reason, I just can't.
Not that people of color can't mingle and don't mingle outside their 'group', cause they do, but those are usually do to relationships formed in childhood up through college.
I left all my childhood friends way behind, as such to others I'm just a stranger who doesn't look like them.
And to blacks, I sorta look like them, but I don't sound like them or have their culturural sway or mannerisms.
As such people like myself are just on a lonely Island of our own.
I can't tell you the last time I've heard music, other than rap, blarring from the vehicle of any 'b' person under the age of say 40.
Imagine if that's the only music one has ever listened to is rap, from cradle to adulthood......think about that...to not ever have been exposed to anything other than foul angry rap music.
How can I relate to a people, any people, with such limited cultural exposure, I can't.

It's why I hate moving to areas where there's a lot of 'blacks', why?
Cause the more 'blacks' there are living in area, the more others think you're 'just like them', and thus shut you out of their social circles.
And being 'just like them' usually means being closed minded, no culture at all what so ever, no college, or any higher education, no emotional balance, proned to violence, the women proned to dating violent men and raising kids along who then act, dress like thugs from age 7 up do to only being exposed to rap lyrics....loving to litter and throw trash on the ground, frail on the inside, hostile and on and on.
It's never nothing good, stereotypes that is, and many do fit that stereotype.
So the more 'black folks' I live around the more one like myself is thrown into that bucket of stereotypes.
But when I live in areas where black population under 10%, then usually others allow you to just be yourself, cause they don't have other negative examples to lump you in with.
(However that's changed a bit do to social media)
I just think 'god' gave me the wrong mindset, personality, wrong past, for the body my soul resides in, cause no one can see my 'soul' or spirit, all they, most of society sees is the surface, and in that micro second I haven't time to convince others I'm other than what their ugly stereotype assumes I am.

Ye when people see me the last thing I want them to associate me with is some small minded, insecure on the inside, blunt smoking, rap listening to inner city 'b' dude with no vision for the future.
I'd rather be associated with a Budhist monk, than a urban city type.

Sadly 'Rap' has totally 'shrank' the definition of people Take this song here...'In the summer time', this came out in 1970, before 'rap' hit the scene. Like how diverse the band naturally is, especially the werewolf dude with the wooly hair! (love it) Before 'rap', bands like this formed all the time, and in fact I heard once that 'Rick James'...'Super Freak', was once in the band 'Steppin Wolf'..(classic rock band). But just saying seems back in those days, when there were just musicians, black or white or mixed or other, there was more blending of sound and cultures, but then after rap hit the scene, that all begin to end. So now if you were considered 'black', rap was the only music you were stereotyped as listening to or able to relate to. And with TV images, videos, social media, the stereotype just go worse...if black it was rap or nothing.. This effected other blacks as well as whites perceptions of well 'blacks' or anyone who considered self as. It's like when you call a add, say for musicians, people just want to know if you're 'black'...and if say yes, conversation immediately over, in that all they think of in angry, hip-hop rapper type from the back alley of the inner city, who's mother smoked crack. They just figure if you're 'black' you're not open to anything other than rap, and anger and protesting, that's just the image that has been burned into their minds. If 'black', they just figure you're a angry, dangerous close minded person (is why I hate the term 'black'... twylightzone.boards.net/thread/75/black-void-tribe-nation-identity?page=1 Because being 'defined as a void' allows others to fill that void with anything, and usually that 'anything' isn't so good. When defined as 'black', other people get to define you, rather than you being able to define self. Hey, I'm black...immediately doors close, social doors, creative doors and more, sure they won't say that but in their minds the doors have closed, and people of color experience this subtle shift all of the time and all of our lives. How someone can be so open to you over the phone, on social media, up and until they realize you may be 'black', then suddenly the friendliness stops, and they go away...what does that say about the phycology of man? And sadly, nothing I write here in this post will change that. If white, doors open, if black doors close, I'm talking socially...and socially is where other real opportunities open up. Not all people of color want to be 'black', more and more want to simply be 'self' but aren't given that chance by either side. The whole color code thing is a farce, color is not culture, it's a generic designation from colonial era mindset type stuff. One color had privilidge, the other color did not and so forth. One color considered bright and right, the other color considered dumb and aloof. Oh well, it's never going to change. So brighter types of all colors just have to make the best of a sour world.

I'm done trying to be or thinking I can ever be 'black'
My Mother recently sent me a picture of my cousin, with male friend, whom they have a kid by, with the male friends Uncle or something, who cares, I just know I'm not them.
Black southern males aren't culturally bred to be 'interesting', they're culturally bred to be 'breeders', and basic practical 'men', first by the 'South', but now by their Mothers who have learned from the colonial south.
Sorry, but when raised around 'free whites', out in Pacific NW, then hurled into the colonial deep south area, and then try fitting in with grits and eggs type of black folk, it just doesn't work, there's nothing there to bridge socially.
From a civil rights angle, sure, but from a social angle, no.
And one thing you'll learn if a lighter skinned, raise in rural mid western or West Coast town, is that when you come to the south, it's dark skinned non college educated black types who are the close minded ones, not the whites, but the none college educated black types, are the ones you'll feel more alienated from, and whom will alienate you if you don't fit their idea of 'black', whatever that means.
I do know this, people who try being 'black' all their lives, never learn how to live and just be happy.
