Liberal racism rejects and debases White Americans. Divide and conquer. Radicals are encouraging Black and Hispanic violence against White Americans and in race tribal studies they teach them their race is socialism. Whites are that "greedy" freedom stuff and whites have to be defeated so browns and blacks can "share the wealth." It is totally sick and manipulative.

White Americans need to keep their own history intact beyond the minority groups who are taught to the smallness of jealousy, resentment and hatred. I taught my own kids about early American history; the constitution, the settlers and the founders from the white point of view. I taught them where they came from on both sides of the family. I don't focus on the "white" race; I refer to it as the American-American history. It is wrong that liberals have created separate and hateful race based tribal ignornance.

They enjoyed our weekend American-American civics and history lessons and it made them aware early on that minorities are pretty ignorant and racist today. Mostly it is pure jealousy. The often brought up negative messages they were getting in school and we laughed about it. Everyone comes here for the freedom American-Americans created, which in turn created a wealthy and successful nation. We even brought back the celebration of early American presidents.

If you want to find decent materials and books for your children on American-American history, go back to the 60s or before for childrens American history and civics books. You will be amazed!

I don't know, I feel like an idiot a lot. I am not good at communicating at all. I call it crap, because that is how I feel about it. I can use some cusses to describe it, but it would be deleted. I have ancestors that were martyrs, natives that were killed. I don't blame all white people for it, because that would be racist in my eyes. Blaming a race for evils is racist. Blaming a son for the sins of a father is wrong. I am a halfbreed, KKK types don't like me. I look at people as people, I dont care what color they are. I don't care if you are white, black, yellow, red, blue, purple. I see people as people, I judge people by their deeds. I know scumbag people of all races. I know good people of all races as well.

Isn't white history taught in schools, for like all year?


In predominantly White nations... yes.

Now, Find me a Nation that is primarily peopled with *NOT* white people, and then see how many "White appreciation Months" they have on their calendar?

Or, you know, Find me a nation where they choose to NOT teach about the history of the Majority Ethnic group of that nation.

Do African Schools Teach African History, or do they teach about White history?

Seriously... Myopia of a temporal variety.

I have always felt that we need to stop defining people by their color or race



Race refers to classifications of humans into relatively large and distinct populations or groups often based on factors such as appearance based on heritable phenotypical characteristics or geographic ancestry, but also often influenced by and correlated with traits such as culture, ethnicity and socio-economic status. As a biological term, race denotes genetically divergent human populations that can be marked by common phenotypic traits.

Race is REAL, get used to it.


.No wonder the aliens don't associate openly with us.


But they are NOT Aliens!!!! they are ALL the SAME AS US!!!

The EXACT SAME!!!!!

ONE LIFE-FORM!!!!

Oh, and just to be absolutely Clear....


white people ,black people,Brown people,Hispanic people,indian people,chinese people


Arguing against Racial Divisions, while using Racial Divisions as a talking point to explain your position, is somewhat fallacious.

Dudes come on chill out, we have the entire year, we're the top dogs world wide


What's this "We" stuff.

Seriously, YOU control the world just because you are white?

Your skin color defines you as "Top Dog" eh?

Last time I checked, The world was controlled by a relatively small group of plutocratic elite, not a "Race" or "Skin Color".....

Don't start blaming ANYTHING on skin color now... it's fallacious.

White history month will never happen.


But I thought it was Every month that WASN'T black History month....



It was the white man who made the black man his slave


It was the Black men who made other black men his slave: en.wikipedia.org...

Slavery existed in Africa well before the Atlantic slave trade and even before Islamic slave trade.

Slavery in Africa more than likely originated from wartime. When a kingdom won a war or battle, opponents were taken captive and used as slaves.

Another reason for slavery was to increase ownership of land by increasing the amount of laborers available to work the land. It is for this reason that slave raids became common on neighboring villages.

Please visit the link provided for the complete story.


It was the Color of your SKIN that enslaved the other SKIN COLORS!!!!

Not to be confused with certain specific individuals now... It was your SKIN COLOR that did all that enslaving!!!




It was the white man who kicked the Indian (native American) out of his home.


It was the Color of your SKIN that makes you guilty, Just like being a Native American makes you guilty for Scalping, and such.




It was the white man who took over India and the rest of the world.


Once again, the Color of your SKIN is the guilty party.... not specific individuals throughout history... Just your SKIN did all that....

So, if you have white skin, that means that you Owned slaves, Killed People, etcetera.


It is the white man who has to answer for the crimes of his ancestors.


IT was the Homo-sapien that enslaved and killed other Homo-sapiens, You are a homosapien, you descended from homosapiens, thereby by YOUR logic, YOU are responsible for All the atrocities in the world, because you have a similar Genotype.




What we once used to be (the white man), we should be ashamed of, there is no room for pride.


[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/fbee5fe7e152.jpg[/atsimg]

Oh RLY?

Because by your logic, *I* am responsible for that.




That is my opinion.


Which is ignorant, and Biased, as well as Racist.

White history month is every day of the year!


In Majority White nations, Yes...

Tell me, how much do African nations teach about this "White History"?



reply to post by woogleuk
 



That doesn't even compare with the treatment the white man showed the blacks, or any other culture for that matter


What "White Man" did this?

Which specific WHITE MAN, are you singling out for derision over his treatment of WHICH Black Man?

Please be specific, lest we believe that you are blaming an ENTIRE SKIN COLOR for something that someone else of the same color did.

Unless you want me to call All black people Murderous Cannibals?

www.independent.co.uk...

Do you?

Because by your logic, They ARE.

Why do you hate black people so much?

Why do you keep asking all people of black skin to apologize for something that someone COMPLETELY DIFFERENT DID, just because they are both black?

Seriously, Dude... You are being EXTREMELY RACIST right now.


Listen closely pal, the past is behind me, but I still look at the mistakes my ancestors made so I don't repeat them, and as such I do realise without that past this present wouldn't exist, no need to swear like a little child.


So, you are a Descendant of EVERY WHITE PERSON WHO EVER LIVED?

Cool Story Bro!

reply to post by liveyourlife
 



No I do not agree. This is a part of American history, and it still a part of American culture today. The OP asked "When is White History Month?" There is no need for a White History Month, but that doesnt mean we dont need a Black History Month. Think about your time in school --- when was the impact of Black Americans studied? - Never. Every one should study the impact. It is good and right to acknowledge what has happened in the past in order to change the future.


Because teaching about the history of a nation, is all about teaching about the Ethnicities that COMPRISE the nation, as opposed to how the nation was founded, the struggles the people went through to start the nation, the wars, the battles, etcetera...

The reason that the History of America that is taught in school is predominantly WHITE, is because WHITE people are the majority of people who did something NOTEWORTHY in American History.

Period.

Yeah, if evolution is right then we all evolved from blacks


This is so ignorant it makes my teeth hurt.

So.... Homo-sapiens-idaltu were Modern day Black Africans?

Yes?

That means that as the rest of the human race evolved into Homo-Sapien-Sapien... Black Africans did not continue Evolving, and remained Homo-sapiens-idaltu?

Do you have a Skin sample with an un-degraded skin pigment that justifies your claim that we all descended from "Blacks"?

Or are you just making the false assertion, that anything that comes out of Africa, from whatever point in history will have black skin?

How do you know what color the skin of a species that lived 120,000+ years ago had?

No, please... Justify your claim.

I'll listen.

Well, odds are that early man was dark-skinned. The majority of people in the world have fairly dark skin, and most of our fossil record is found in places like Africa, the middle east, and south Asia, where dark skin is a big bonus.


[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/71757c82c490.jpg[/atsimg]

Or, you know... just having a thick covering of hair, and pale skin underneath....



Basically, white people are the ones most prone to talk about glossing over and ignoring racial differences, because it's never really mattered to whites in America. It's easy to ignore your background when you've never had to pay any price for looking the way you look.


Oh, yeah... Totally.

How old are you Again? Were you alive 400 years ago?

OH, and just so that you know....

en.wikipedia.org...

IT's easy to gloss over an entire race, when you think that they have had the greates time, partying and such all throughout history, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM, because you only see them as some monolithic "White" hive mind or something.



White people have suffered too.

Get over yourself.

en.wikipedia.org...


"Those whose hair is red, of a certain peculiar shade, are unmistakably vampires. It is significant that in ancient Egypt, as Manetho tells us, human sacrifices were offered at the grave of Osiris, and the victims were red-haired men who were burned, their ashes being scattered far and wide by winnowing-fans. It is held by some authorities that this was done to fertilize the fields and produce a bounteous harvest, red-hair symbolizing the golden wealth of the corn. But these men were called Typhonians, and were representatives not of Osiris but of his evil rival Typhon, whose hair was red."

Please visit the link provided for the complete story.


So, yeah.... that's you being...

What's that word?

WRONG!!!!


As far as I can tell, the only people who are throwing up barriers, are the white people who feel that they're missing out on something because they don't get any exclusively "white" month.


As far as you can Tell, eh?

Well, For your information, I just don't like people hurling obvious logical fallacies, as you seem to love.

Just saying is all...


Oh, and the one you just used was Called: "Ad Homenim", "Appeal to Emotion", "Association fallacy", "Appeal to spite", and "Appeal to motive", which are all Red Herrings.

I'm white but I don't feel the need to be superior about it. The white man stole this land from the the natives and the black man help build it into what it is today. We all contributed to what this country became.

When Lincoln freed the slaves capitalism was born. We all became slaves to a system of greed.

Your question is not racist, it is a logical question. What is fair for one should be fair for the other.

I have my own questions I would love to hear answers to, from people who think you have asked a racist question.

I often wonder if when whites become a minority in15 years, like I have heard will happen, will liberals still be pushing affirmative action?

Speaking of affirmative action, why do I not hear calls for affirmative action when it comes to professional basketball or football teams, where the starters are 90% black? (Clue: Maybe because they want the best person for the job?)

Why is Obama called the first black president when in fact he is the exact same percentage white as he is black, and in fact was raised by a white mother and grandmother? We are not supposed to judge "books by their covers", so why is he considered black?

I am proud to be white. We are the minority on this planet and the last bastion against barbarism. All evidence points to the "races" actually different species. I hope all whiites wake up and realize you are an endangered species. If I were you I would take pride in your race and species and start protecting them.

Instead of the vague answer that "whitey day is everyday" or "the other 11 months", give me a name of any holiday the celebrates and even has a name referring to white in color. They don't exist because people would be up in arms.it's not about where you come from, you could have a white person born in Africa, "black xxxxxx day" doesn't include the person. It when it's about the color of the skin, that's when I have a problem with it. Maybe that makes me the least racist person!

It's not me that's right, it's just history, a subject that is either studied or ignored depending on the politics of the country one finds oneself in.

Or it's taught and then ignored for personal bias.

first if any one should be offended by Black history its the black people. there is no white history month because white people all know there roots. example , a German has his German holidays, a Russian there own. the entire African continent is grouped together under a skin colour. African Americans cannot in no way know a real cultural pride because the culture is almost completely lost and "white washed"

If I know anything about my roots it is because my parents have told me what they knew about it.

Black people have had the same opportunity to continue that type of knowledge.

White history = European history, American history which is something you studied in school and live in every day as history is a living entity. Do you really want to be limited to a month and then forgotten the rest of the year? Do you really want "white" history to be commercialized and turned into a fad where people celebrate the history just within that month and not every day? Black History month celebrates Black American history - it has nothing to do with race but rather black culture in America - which is a EURO-CENTRIC country. There is no such thing as white history because you can't just base history on race and dismiss all the different European cultures.

If you are American, and by your negative tone, you are, why don't you become a scholar on American history? Why not find about your ancestors? Are you Scottish, British, French, etc? Learn about that and stop making this about race.

Wow .... I mean WOW! WTF? I'm Caucasian and I take actual offense to this! I should pont out that I don't normally take offense to racism (being called cracker and especially being part of the "race" that is taking over "NWO""

Hell YES I would like to know that us "white people" are respected because you know what? Most of us are in the same position as everyone else! OD NOT DISCRIMINATE! That IS BULL #. the only reason why I care so much about the world as a whole is because I put that $hi# aside!

I have nothing against the support of learning about the civil rights battles that Black people have fought over the centuries. The only things I object to are the obviously racist benefits given solely on skin color or race. I mean, the whole civil rights battle was about equality, just like with woman wanting to vote and work a good job, yet what we have are scholarships and mandatory race quotas on schools. This encourages not a color-blind equal opportunity for everyone, but a blatant slap to the face of anyone born white. My whole life I've felt inferior because my skin was white. I can't get scholarships, and I'm competing with only the other white people while trying to get into schools or jobs, because if a person of the ethnicity applies that the establishment needs to fill its quota, then I am thought of as second-best. This is not equality, it is blatant segregation and embracing of racism in my opinion.

We are all human and should be thought of as equals. No person is disadvantaged (at least in America) based on their skin color. One of the only times I would support extra benefits would not be based on race, but on immigration status of the child and/or his/her parents, because if a person and/or his/her parents are from another country, then naturally there will be disadvantages that need to be overcome and can be helped along. Giving money and express passes based on skin color is like saying outright that whites are smarter and more skilled, which is not true. Every individual is different and should be offered equal opportunity regardless of color.
