The Cosby show was one of a few Black shows in a ocean of white shows. The vast majority of the programming was for whites and glorifying white people. Sharpton and JJ didnt have any shows so I have no idea what you are talking about even if what you claim are true. Your POTUS has done nothing but tell Blacks anything is possible if you never quit even in the face of racism.
Keep drinking the BO koolaide. I still have hope because there are some enlightened blacks.
Thanks I will. Anyone that preaches self empowerment despite the odds, makes some great tasting koolaid.
BO's personal accomplishments are outstanding, no doubt. But the message he delivers thru his words and his actions is not consistent with his own life. He accomplished what he did inspite of being black, not because of it. And now he panders to the black community by "sticking up for them" rather than acknowledging why he is where he is. He had a family group, his mother and grandparents for sure set him on a positive path. Why doesn't he acknowledge this. He projects an Us against Them message by getting personally involved in high profile black related issues, and he is quick to point a finger at white establishment.
Seems to me the message is pretty consistent. Basically its the same thing my parents taught me.....
As a Black person I have to work 10x as hard to get to the same place as a white person. No one can stop you from getting to where you want to be because you have the blood and DNA of the strongest people to inhabit the earth. Yes things will get hard but nothing is strong enough to stop you except you.
When people ask you for a reason should you ignore the question or answer it. It makes me laugh when white people ask you questions and you tell them an answer they get upset and say you are making an "excuse". If you think its an excuse then dont ask the question.
Wow, you got that message from BO? Seems like you got another message and that is why you are hyped up about little girls birthday presents. That is focusing on how the little black girl is a victim of white privilege.
Yep thats the message I get. Laughing at the incident isnt being hyped up. The only victim is the white woman that was upset over the reaction. The girl is going to be fine. Her mom is raising her with the same method I raised my girls.
