What white folks fail to understand is that anything that reminds black folks of slavery hurts to the soul. White folks back in the day chain ,beat ,rape, hung, black woman,children, and men and with white folk well aware of this history should know better than to look at it as simple name calling.
Considering "Buckwheat" wasn't something a White Slave Owner called a Black Slave, how does that remind you of slavery, rape and beatings?
And you know that the slave owners didn't call them that because.? I know there were a lot more things they were called that was just as unsavory. I had given you more credit you actually deserve, but I also recognize since you have never experienced what Black people have so you wouldn't recognize the bumps that create the negative waves either.

If you've never been there don't assume you can inject your feelings and everyone will back off. Your comments are more like the average white man....it's no big thing just a word/name why are you people getting upset. IF you could reverse those times and put yourself in the place of any black who has been abused by a white man/woman then maybe you would understand. You can't recognize the fact that that same mentality is in effect today. Blacks still have to fight just to get a job, then fight to keep it, or get promoted. You have no idea because as quiet as it's kept color still plays a major role in who gets what, when and how much.
There are only negative waves if you let them affect you... and they are just bumps. Cisslybee has pointed out many things that provoke some deep thought and with the free time I have to think... I've thought about it!

I understand some of what present day Black People go through in the job world. I've stood in the Welfare Office along side Black Men and Women who have lost jobs or can not get a job. At that time in my life, I had to fight just as hard to get back into the workforce and stay there! I chose to start my own business and made something of my life.

We can't reverse the times of slavery in American History, nor should we erase it. We as a People can not learn from our mistakes if they are not there to remind us and better ourselves. There will always be name calling, some of it will hit too close from home. Is it better to go through life as a bitter Person, or to try and find an inkling of humor and not let it consume you. I'm not saying there is any humor in what happened during the times of slavery in the United States, but there are racial slurs for almost every Ethnic Group in the World, does it bother the others? And I understand you feel it is different for Blacks because of slavery... but if you took slavery out of the equation would you feel the same way?
Haze: Let me share something with you. I may be a lot older than you, but it doesn't mean I didn't learn anything over the years. I'm not bitter, but damn disgusted that the non-white groups always have to take a back seat to what you all call is right or no big deal. I'm sure that's the same attitude the producers of the Little Rascals had.

I don't care who you believe that's your perogative but if you have not experienced the brutality of the white mans/womans rath then I suggest you leave it alone. Your attempt to display an enlightened POV is extremely shaky. This entire issue is about the psychological damage to the black persons ego and you don't understand that.
None of the "lighthearted quirkiness" will erase anything about reality.There is nothing humorous about being called a name which has a negative ring to it. And yes it bothers me that whites feel justified in calling people wetbacks, Spics, dung hos, slant eyes, etc, etc. It's a power play and it is totally unecessary. You might say I'm just damn tired of the crap, 65 yrs of it is a long time to put up with it.

Again if you've never been there don't make light of it with attempted humor or brushing it off. Yet today if a white says something off-color to a black person and the black person challenges him/her they(whites) claim not to have had offensive
intentions and are taken back because of the blacks reaction. Please ! If it had not been intentional they wouldn't have said it in the first place. People know what they are doing just like you know what your intentions are with this topic.

Iam glad you ask ! When a white person says it to a black person it is as if you are be-little and saying that i still see you as a slave and I know this is hard for you to understand because your past white family members was not en-slave or beaten or your children rape and beaten and hung by another race unless you are jew.
What iam saying is that a white person shouldn't noway shape or form make a black feel less then because all you doing is waking up a ugly history. If you white and don't believe me just walk up to any black person and call him or her buckwheat and see what happens.
How can a white person make you feel bad about being black?

You can't blame how you feel about yourself on them.
Ofcrouse I can ! That way of thinking keeps me from getting jobs, loans,or just plain treated fairly.
It also keeps you from looking within yourself for solutions to going around the wall instead of trying to climb over it.
That just don't work all the time!

Don't you think of black people as Buckwheat?
If that's what you want to do.....be my guest. Some of you can ask the most ignorant questions. That white piece of shiz is just as ignorant as you and one day he'll say it to the wrong person and get his tallywhacker misplaced.
AMEN.

Controlling your temper and looking within yourself for the answers are two different things.

If someone saying something stupid to you about what you are angers you, then whether you keep yourself out of jail or not, you have a problem with yourself because no one calling you any name about being black or looking black should bother you.

White Democrat Congressman Robert Hagan called a black man Buckwheat, and he said that's not racist because he's been using that term every since he was a kid.
