Unconscious Racism (Mainpage Story)...

[Cochiese]

It's time, for a revolution. The way to end all racism according to Paul Mooney " kill all white people" and we will end all racism. Either we do that or let's go home Africa

Real shit. This is why I love Allhiphop.

Perfectly written piece

Nice piece.

I like how when it's a thread on some important shit you got people lurking but no one wants to comment, but if it's a thread about some bullshit people flock to that shit with their two cents. Must be too real to touch.

It is a nice piece, doesn't apply to ALL whites but a nice piece nonetheless...

This article didnt tell me nothing I didnt already know, but nice introspect. Personally I judge people the color of they're auras.

That's the thing, it does actually apply to ALL whites.

Individual white people like to act they're different, but their actions say different. The sooner black people understand this, the better.

Also, it's not white individuals that are the real problem per se. It's that the whole system is a white supremacist construct.

It doesn't apply to ALL whites, you can't just group them as you please because you assume things.

You cant generalize and say all whites... because it is truly impossible. Just as you cant say all blacks are such and such...

the premise of the article still stands however.

correct, which is why I said it's a good piece nonetheless. I only disagree with the notion all whites are this "unconscious racist", simply not true.

I know enough white ppl to not believe that shit, blanket statements are for lazy thinkers

That’s also why some disgruntled Hunger Games fans have found fault with the color of particular cast members. Despite the fact that casting directors make small (and large) changes to book characters all the time, their unconscious racists within were activated when they saw that such powerful and positive characters were played by…dramatic pause… black actors (cue shock and awe now). According to some of the upset tweets, the author made no mention of color. This actually isn’t true, but it doesn’t matter. When they discovered that the book characters where strong, positive and actually of significance to the story, they automatically assumed the author meant for them to be white, because, well, what else could they possibly be? And those unconscious racist thoughts were actually strong enough to edit out the parts of the book that literally describe their skin as “dark brown.”

i'm trying to figure out how this is "unconscious racism" when the people in question were flipping out all over the internet about it immediately. wouldn't that just be racism?

^^ agreed...

but i think he was stating that if you asked those who voiced their displeasure they would say that they are not rasict and just viewed the character to be white/lightskinned etc.
