The official "I disapprove of Hopkins's comments" thread

[sonofisis]

We, as in the humanity of the 21st century, don't be a smart ass




We got different info then, but I do trust mine and your man Dubois agreed with me.

I guess so, but you haven't enlightened me, so..

Why dont White people look anything like their Black ancestors??? Evolution my friend..

The same reason why Cats and Snakes in different parts of the world have different characteristics...

Nope, Most Native Americans actually were puerta ricans, and eskimos, even cubans. No such thing as evolution in terms of a people evolving to a different state. Youre using the word wrong, you mean racial mixing pretty much. Thats why I said there are no black africans in America because they have been watered down with white blood.

But old68 we are experiencing that hatred, I might not have endured slavery but great grandmother' did and effects of that have been passed on to grandmother who I see and touch everyday. Injustices to black people cont till this day. Just 60 yrs ago we were considered 2nd hand citizens and riding the back of the bus, drinking out of "colored only fountains" , and forced to eat in closest at the back of restaurants. You think that has no effect, do u really think we are bitching?

What injustices have you been through personally.

and seeing your grandmother everyday doesnt mean that every racial injustice she has experienced just got passed to you. Theres no point in holding a grudge or anything, that wont help anyone.

[BrooklynBomber]

And addressing "inferiority complexes", why is it that that the southerners did not have much problems leaving their wives with the ****** when they went to war with the north?

The racism that we all address started AFTER blacks were liberated, there were many reasons to it, but I think it was the combination of what Wells was saying and Dubois was saying.

And as for the pseudoscience of the 1800's, well, blacks were considered to be an inferior race(but then again, in America, everyone that did not wall in the Anglo Saxon had a great chance of being considered "black", read about the Wages of Whiteness)

I am obviously not gonna be able to transfer my point to you, if you wanna be a victim, well, go ahead.


And that comment about Africa, well, guess what, every race and ethnicity was abused at one point of it's history,

They say that there are remains of about 300 million people under the great Wall of China.

I'm no victim. i understand what your trying to say, but I want u to understand what I'm saying. I agree with u, we have been tormenting and abusing each other since the beginning of time and everyone has some terrible history. But no country has suffered like Africa.

And in America history no other race has suffered like blacks and that is the only pt im trying to make.

how in the hell did a race of people start from two islands and antartica, where it is too cold for anyone to live. Native Americans became eskimos, the whole native american race did not come from a bunch eskimos.

and there are defintely some pure blood black Africans in America.

OK or we can look at the what The scientific community thinks..

The Bering Strait Land Bridge Theory

Based on anthropological and genetic evidence, scientists generally agree that most Native Americans descend from people who migrated from Siberia across the Bering Strait, between 17,000�11,000 years ago.

The exact epoch and route is still a matter of controversy, as is whether it happened at all. Until recently there was a consensus among anthropologists that the alleged migrants crossed the strait 12,000 years ago via the Bering Land Bridge which existed during the last ice age (which occurred 26,000 to 11,000 years ago), and that they followed an inland route through Alaska and Canada that had just been freed of its ice cover. There are a number of difficulties in this theory - in particular, growing evidence of human presence in Brazil and Chile 11,500 years ago or earlier [1]. Thus other possibilities, not necessarily exclusive, have been suggested:


The migrants may have crossed the land bridge several millennia earlier and followed a coastal route, thus avoiding the ice-covered interior.

They may have been seafaring people who moved along the coast, a theory disputed due to the relative lack of seafaring skills of peoples of this time period.

The crossing of the Bering Land Bridge may have occurred during the previous ice age, around 37,000 years ago. This is also supported by the archaeology dating of some sites in South America prior to the previously assumed date of 12�14,000 years ago.

And I can't agree with you.

Because they wanted to keep them, duh! Don't you even know what the war was about?

The racism that we all address started AFTER blacks were liberated, there were many reasons to it, but I think it was the combination of what Wells was saying and Dubois was saying.

There was no transition in racism, the same form of racism forces the same kind of hatred.

And as for the pseudoscience of the 1800's, well, blacks were considered to be an inferior race(but then again, in America, everyone that did not wall in the Anglo Saxon had a great chance of being considered "black", read about the Wages of Whiteness)

The 1 drop rule is apparent, but the point is that "inferior" doesn't equate "animal". All races were inferior according to those early schemes and it persisted as late as the 20th century.
