Ok Elle, Ill end it here, You feel the way that you do about Malcolm and I remain with the same feeling that I do. Just because I admire Malcolm doesnt make me a racist. Some of the forefathers that you spoke of where slave owners so I find it hard to have pictures of them posted in my home. The reason that the question was so important was that I asked and didnt get a response. Those are good examples.

Have you ever been to a real ghetto? I mean talked to some of the people not just whats presented in the media.

On the websites homepage, their is a link for quotes by "some of our greatest leaders" (I'm assuming this means the black communities greatest leaders). There are many quotes by Malcolm X and Louis Farrakahan. The last thing I would call these two men are "leaders". Malcolm X hurt the civil rights movement more than helped. He called Martin Luther King a "chump" and was an avid racist. Farrakahan is antisemitic and preaches lies. If these are the black communities "greatest leaders", then the black community has a LONG way to go.
Feel better now?

Oh gee, I said all that to black people on a website.

I bet they get pissed off because me a white person offered an opinion, based on my perception of people.

I don't like these black people because my perception of them is negative.


Well I for one I'm bloody surprised. Golly gee. Shocking stuff really.

Anymore insights?
Wow, I love your analysis of what you believe is going on in my brain. Unfortunately for you, you are completely wrong. ;)
You're bigot and obbessed with blacks, that I'm not wrong about.

Whats so funny about the question Elle? I would define a ghetto as a place that has a high crime rate that is specific to the area. You know, drugs Murder, prostitution, rapes and crime of violence in general. You may say thats everywhere but we all know that its more likely in the ghetto that burbs. Is it funny because I asked the question or what? I was trying to eventually make a point in reference to the leaders that you chose.

It seems as if you are obsessed with me, my thoughts, and my opinions.

It's funny because I don't see how it is relevant to my initial post. Anyways, my city has had 82 murders in the past two years (since I've lived here), 106 rapes, 1,485 assaults, and 1,752 robberies. My zip code alone is 97% black. If you classify this as "ghetto", then I live in the "ghetto". Does this answer your question? What is the relevance of this again??
