    with the overdoing of 'black_______' it can very well seem that way, but the meaning of starting it was to gain recognition, that we are very well capable of doing what anyone else can do. but especially with the overdoing of all the 'black' this and that...especially a 'black shopping network'....seriously...thats just, too much.

    I get what your saying but why do they feel the need to prove anything to anyone. Not trying to start another heated debate just wondering why so many black people feel the need to prove something to everyone else. Prove to yourself.

    In meeting a ton of people, IN MY OPINION, I think probally 80% of the muslim people I have ever met have been racist as hell to one race or another, I think black people are further down the list. xD

    this isnt trying to pull the race card, but we do have it more difficult than SOME white folks to try to make a name for ourselves and to make it to the top, because of certain people, white AND black that dont want to see success for another black person. i mean this...for the white person that doesnt like/care for black people, he just flat out doesnt want to see him succeed in a position a white person, they feel, should be in...whether qualified or not (although, as well, knowing inside people gets certain people into position, even if you dont have the skills) also the white person (this also goes for the black person) that just acts like crabs in a bucket and just dont want to see the next man get higher than they are...that goes for all races too. i'm not biased, but my eyes are open to everything.

    i understand, prove to yourself, totally, but to try to make something of one's self, whether whatever race, it usually goes pass having to prove just to yourself. i'll put it this way, when i was unemployed, i know i was qualified and proved to myself on my prior job, before i was laid off due to lack of work, that i was good (not great because i didnt have THAT much experience) at what i did. but i was laid off for 9 months constantly putting in resumes for career based jobs with no success. i know it wasnt TOTALLY because i was black, other reasons (not hiring, already selected someone else, etc) were some of the reasons, but i know there were times when race came into the decision. that's just something i know, not that i'm plastering it, because no one ever saw me say when i was unemployed, 'i cant get hired because i'm black and they dont want to hire a black man', naw i hustled, got my money to pay bills, by whatever legal means necessary until i was able to find employment in a similar field.

    for someone to come in this thread and say 'black people are the most racist' is close minded and ignorant to say. yea you cant prove that they are and you cant prove that they arent....you were the one that said we are and were asked to provide proof that we are. that perception is so tunneled and tainted....it just shows more on your ignorance. stop sitting there labeling people as this or that, humans are racist period
