Obama: America's 'Deeply Rooted' Racism Will Take Time To Tackle

[ninja007]

ROFL biggest racist POS in this country... lecturing us on racism.

Yep, only a fucking idiot would claim that Obama hasn't made things WORSE.

Pitiful to, that could have been his legacy to finally END the racism.

I mean seriously. how much good could he have done if ONE time he would have stood up in the White House and said " Look , in THIS instance, the black man was wrong to claim racism?"

And NO ONE is truly stupid enough to believe that in 6 years Obama simply hasn't seen an instance of black man claiming racism where none existed.

Democrats benefit from racism. Why would they want to end a good thing?

If that's true the GOP should be working hard to end racism. I wonder why they aren't?

what is working hard to end racism? Is that a university degree you get?

Maybe someone in your party should ask that to a black person. They sure don't seem to like you guys for some reason.

probably has something to do with personal responsibility and treating each other the same....

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama is prescribing time and vigilance to tackle problems as entrenched in American society as racism and bias.

He also is urging patience, saying progress usually comes in small steps.

In an interview with BET, the president described his conversation with a group of young civil rights activists, including a leader of protests in Ferguson, Missouri, he hosted last week in the Oval Office.

Obama said he told them that "this is something that is deeply rooted in our society, it's deeply rooted in our history."

America has made gains, and that "gives us hope" of making more progress, he said.

"We can't equate what is happening now to what was happening 50 years ago," Obama said, "and if you talk to your parents, grandparents, uncles, they'll tell you that things are better, not good in some places, but better."

Obama said he is advising young people to be persistent because "typically progress is in steps, it's in increments.

President Obama is correct - but none of us will ever live long enough to see it end. I can't even imagine how it can or will end. Will it ever end before humans become extinct?

Yes! For a few, race baiting and racial division has meant wealth and publicity beyond their dreams.

Obama: America's 'Deeply Rooted' Racism Will Take Time To Tackle

Even more, now that our first black President made it worse.

In the conservatives version of history I've personally heard spoken of many times, the slaves didn't really have it as bad as some say. No, they were given a place to live and a livelihood. They seem to interpret that movie, Song of the South, as if it was meant as a biographical depiction of how happy slaves really were.

No doubt, in this depiction of history, people who were trying to set the slaves free were rabble rousers who fostered race hatred by trying to disrupt an equitable system that provide the po' Black folk with a job and a home.

Do conservatives really think most people that that kind of tripe seriously? It only serves to make conservatives look like the racists other people say they are.

In the conservatives version of history....

Meanwhile, in the 21st Century, black idiots riot, and burn down businesses in their own community, because lies about their current "martyr" didn't result in the indictment of a cop.

You make it sound like conservatives are always the victims of lies and never the perpetrators of them. I know that to be the antithesis of reality after twenty years of listening to nonstop RW propaganda which has had about as much in common with the truth as the porn industry has in common with the celibate lifestyle. Put more plainly, my experience over that period is that conservatives unapologetically lie about everything under the sun all the time, and they do it with a straight face in order to further their agenda. They're not even embarrassed by it. I take no pleasure in it at all since I consider it wholly disheartening. With that said, if given a choice on who to believe in almost any dispute involving conservatives, I'm probably more likely to take the word of a devil-worshipping convicted criminal than I would be to take the word of someone who's an avowed conservative and who wears his belief in Jesus and his conservative Christianity as a badge of honor.

Define "working hard"..
I submit that the simple act of treating one another as individuals rather than a member of a group is enough.
Liberals, progressives and those heavily invested in the business of race continue the practice of herding us into groups then pitting those groups against each other.

well if you look at the stats you would have to say no. If you look at the riots, you would have to say no. If you look at black on black crime you would have to say no. If you look at unemployment, no. If you look at single mom households, no.. on and on....

Saying that is the opposite of working to end racism.

And NO ONE is truly stupid enough to believe that in 6 years Obama simply hasn't seen an instance of black man claiming racism where none existed.

If that's true the GOP should be working hard to end racism. I wonder why they aren't?

The party of Old White Men will get around to it, as soon as their corporate masters figure out how to make ending racism pay or using it to avoid taxes.

Still hanging on to that old and seriously debunked cliche?......
