Everybody has been guilty of racism at some point in their lives, whether it be casual, provincial or whatever, can't deny that!
A couple of my Asian friends at school, called me 'undercooked bread' which is probably this shitest piece of casual taunting I'd ever been subjected to.

You know, now i'm just waiting for the ginger people to pipe up and complain about how they've been more oppressed than anyone....

i don't usually take anything too seriously [esp here], but...
only read half the thread, and glad to read how most of you believe this sort of behavior is infuriating and hard to understand.
on the other hand, a large amount of you on here are SO quick to throw around the gay jokes around at each other and i find it to be one in the same. if you were calling each other pakis and n-words in your jokin with each other, it wouldn't be so giggly and hilarious anymore, would it?
i'm not at all offended by it, at the same time i expect more from you guys... you are all so much more clever than having to resort to the tired and oh-so-typical novelty fag jokes.
make me proud, ladies :D

I talked to Kuz at a pub last Friday. I asked whether he was born in the UK and then where his family origins were from.

Seriously though, there's no hope of ever moving on from racism. It can't even be discussed without unconcious desires to subjectively position oneself in relation to the issue, or to exorcise some vaguely tourettian impulse, and its only a matter of time before the rights of gay people are brought along, followed by the rights of every other social ghetto dweller. The issue of racism is the issue of racism. It has nothing, nothing at all to do with the issue of sexual discrimination, physical discrimination, religious discrimination or any other discrimination... its race discrimination and it has its own very unique facets that have no correlation whatsoever to sexual polarity or anything else. The only place that these things can sit together is the overarching discussion about humankind's innate mistrust. The issue of racism will never be resolved by failing to address the actual phenomenon and diffusing discourse thinly across other forms of discrimination.
4 pages of thoughts and comments here and to my mind, not one attempt to understand or pin it down.

Ah, so everyone is in this thread. I was wondering why everything was moving so slow this morning, haha.

hat's to understand and pin down? its a blatantly obvious phenomenon and after all these years of trying to address it, surely everybody of a reasonable standard of intelligence has a grasp of where it comes from.
I thought we were talking about Kuz' mates' compartmentalisation of their principles and not the issue as such anyway?
- Spookytim0
Barb, so am I, across the board, but convergence doesn't add to the debate it detracts from it.
- barbtastic0
then why are you arguing with me? it was just an observation.
- barbtastic0

Racism has it's roots far deeper that people wish to imagine. It's from a time when black people were seen as inferior to the point that they would be beaten in the street until they died. Black people were led around on chains like pets and used as slaves with no human rights. They were not seen as people, but as a commodity. All this was socially acceptable. Today there are some people that still see black people as inferior and dirty, much of this has been passed down through generations that have never really encountered black people, the rest are just naive. The difference is that today racist behavior on any level is socially unacceptable. We all know this, but there are many that cannot see that their petty throwaway comments all link back to our unfortunate ancestors that behaved in the much more appalling way i described above.
Can someone please post some breasts now to lighten the mood.

Sarah Jones...
Blood
it is the thickest blood on this planet
the feet that slip
that slide in spilled lakes of black blood
on back roads marked with rusted dead-end signs
they don't fit into any shoes
not Nikes
not Reeboks
they make them in sweat shops across the sea
turn around and sell them right back to you
and you
and me
for fifty times their value
but none of them can hold the blood
that coagulated not-so-long ago
in the lower extremities
of brown-skinned corpses strung up from trees
like drying figs
or hanging potpourri
to sweeten scenes of Southern gallantrybefore cushioned insoles and arch supports
there were feet that sank in rusted chains
backs that cracked beneath the weight of slave names
like Jones, Smith, Johnson, Williams, or even
Hilfiger
black butts that bore marks forever
from irons that preceded those for
pressing and curling naps yanked straight
before relaxers, weaves, pink lotion
talkin' 'bout branding irons, son
now that you’ve crossed the ocean, right
step up here, little nigger, on the auction block
open up that mouth--yes, nice strong teeth
nice muscle tone, a fine specimen
you must be worth at least ten dollars, maybe more
see here, ladies and gentlemen, how much can I get for
this here barely used, top of the line
fast forward that shit to Calvin Klein
and modern ownership tags for black behinds
courtesy of Ralph Lauren
a.k.a
'Lo
'Lo
well how low can ya go
call on black consumers if you want the cash flow
'cause they quick to flip and spend up all they dough
don't front money, act like you know
we give it up to the Brooklyn malls
we give it up to the Uptown malls
'cause the white folks figure
ain't no questions for a nigger
that material possessions can't answer
we'll stay preoccupied with what we wear and what we drive
while our mothers are dying of cancer
we'll tuck our low self-esteem into some Eurotrash jeans
some overpriced shit from Donna Karan
then we'll toast with Hennessy
to covert white supremecy
hiding the thickest blood on this planet
we wearin' it
under our clothes
the way God dressed our souls
it is the thickest blood on this planet
the blood that sprays and spills in buckets
soaks and stains the nightly news
but fuck it, a colored life still ain't worth but a few ducats
that blood can't be contained by any mind that cannot see
a great black forest for all these cracker trees
afroMadonna and child
and child
and child
and (woops) there goes another one
'cause nowadays mamas don’t know the answers
so babies gots ta'
Guess
say youngblood, you wanna tell me what Georges Marciano
ever did for a black man, boricua, chicano
brothers and sisters
their pockets like blood blisters
ready to pop, ooze and drop cash
so hot and so fast it makes a spark
and our children say,
yeah, Mami, now I got my upside down triangle
my designer question markwhy ask why it doesn't make you complete
it's vanilla concealer for your chocolate heartbeat
pumping the thickest blood on this planet
while we all take it for granted that
more Selma churches won't be bombed
more bullet riddled bodies won’t be embalmed
another cop won't commit murder, turn around and get a raise
while we're picking over the racks
from white-owned Dr. Jays to Modell's/Barney's/Macy's/Saks
they just think we ain't never gonnna change our ways
'cause then we might finally taste the blood of rage
at the back of our throats
and answer Massa back
Nawsuh, I'se don't want to wear yo' britches
Nawsuh, I'se don't want to grant yo' wishes
that all us negroes should continue to hide
in your shoes and your clothes as if we should take pride
in your savage traditions
mass genocide
all the spirits you extinguished
never batted one blue eye
yet you're vultures on our culture like white on brown rice
leech our blood, then sell it back
brown, yellow, black
special priceit is the blood that races through the African veins of the child
on his way to the mall in White Plains
to catch a confused-lost-land-stealing Columbus-
day sale
on a Fila jogging suit for his brother in jail
that blood is my blood
your blood
our blood
the thickest blood on this planet
