Ever heard of the doll experiment? It was a social science experiment done in the 1950s to test the impact of segregation on black children. The experiment gave black school children the choice of playing with either a white doll or a black doll. This was an implicit test for racial bias.
The black children overwhelmingly chose the white doll and rejected the black doll. When asked why, the black kids said that was because the black doll was ugly, mean, and dumb while the white was pretty, nice, and smart. This engrained racial inferiority was one of the factors used by the Supreme Court in the historic Brown v Board of Education case.
CNN redid the doll experiment a couple of years ago with a twist and aired the results on TV. This time they just didn't ask black children which doll they preferred but also asked white children.
Guess what? The same results as 60 years ago. Both black and white children overwhelmingly chose to play with the white dolls. They both said the black dolls were ugly, mean, and dumb. They both said the white dolls were pretty, nice, and smart. The most heartbreaking moment being when they asked the black children which doll they looked more like and the black children point to the black doll they just called ugly, mean, and dumb.
If you don't think white supremacy and black inferiority isn't cooked into the fabric of American society, then you're just playing dumb. Listen to the children. Unlike adults who have the filter of political correctness, children say the absolute truth. And according to our children both black and white, white supremacy is alive and well in every walk of American life.
Are you really dense enough to think that was it?!?! lolololooololoooollllllll. nah man. it's not just 7 people. If I went back to the day after the Dallas shooting, freak would kill me for posting so many. You asked for examples, I gave you some. I picked 7 out of hundreds, possibly thousands in ONE WEEK. Just take the L my friend.So you found a few people asking for white people to fix their problems in the past 6 days? That's not very many at all. Some of those tweets don't really relate to our discussion.
I think you are focusing on the loud minority. Most progressives and liberals aren't saying wild-ass things like this. It's just the radicals. There are millions of blacks on twitter...of course some of them will be saying stupid things.
I Have read about this. Did you ever stop to think about what age children still play with dolls? 3...4..5...? lets even stretch that and say that they were 6 or so. That would mean that at most, those kids had been to kindergarten. Been outside the home for half a day for 9 months, and in 1950 would have been pre integration...so the kids only saw kids that look like them.
Doesnt that mean that this is NOT learned behavior taught by society, as these kids were never socialized. They are small enough to play with dolls , they have been only at home with mommy.
That means 1 of 2 things. Either the kids were taught, AT HOME , that black people are mean dumb and ugly...or the black people they interact with were this way for the black kids... or it is a universal belief that naturally occurs in children to believe that black dolls or people are not as attractive or nice as white dolls or people. If these kids are so small, their beliefs and experiences havent come from the society you LONG DESPERATELY to blame, but have either come from their families or genetics.
Having come from a mixed family with 2 black siblings and 2 white siblings i find this fascinating. I wish this experiment were done on my family si we could see the results. Regardless, i think you are dead wrong in your assumptions and beliefs...and your victim mentality will cripple you and all the folks that believe the way you do. Thankfully, my black sisters werent fed the lies that you have swallowed whole and they are happy and productive people. Cheers.
I appreciate that
I'm warming up to old Butch but hes still got a lot to prove
Love how all the Hillary dip$hits were so quick to jump to his defense. Lol.
"You have Hillary who has called black teens or black kids super predators, you have Donald Trump whos openly racist. We have a presidential candidate who has deleted emails and done things illegally and is a presidential candidate. That doesnt make sense to me because if that was any other person youd be in prison. So, what is this country really standing for?"

I disagree with you there. I don't know why you assume he's just doing it for attention. Motive is not proof.
