Okay truthfully, I avoid the race issue because I am a elitist bitch.

Racism's negative effects simply just lingering, it has evolved into laziness and a sheep mentality unlike any I have ever seen.

Just because someone doesn't fucking back up a stereotype doesn't mean that they are trying to mimic another ethnic group.

I can't fucking stand the notion that I'm trying to be a 'oreo' just because I don't like that crap that they try to pass off as rap and r&b. Or that I hate BET.

No one is fucking allowed to have an individual mindset about what they think and what they want for themselves. Everything's about the black community as a whole and anyone who isn't immediately trying to come off as a thug or an independant loud-ass chicken head is immediately 'not black enough'.

THE BLACK 'COMMUNITY' CAN GO FUCK ITSELF RIGHT ON INTO EXTINCTION.

Now, people who are doing the right thing and raising their children and teaching them that not everything is perfect in the world and there are other fucking things in existence outside of their 'block' or 'hood'. I can deal with that.

Everyone that calls it speaking correctly and not 'talkin' white', I can deal with.

Anyone that seems to have a fucking testable IQ, I can deal with.

I will willfully and totally admit that I immediately give up on anyone that looks like they just stepped out of the "Sucka-free" video rotation of MTV. I don't think it's tough I don't think it's sexy and I don't think it's a respectable fashion statement.

If I see another girl under the age of 18 having a child I will fucking strangle her myself.

I don't talk about race, because I get very angry at current state of 'black people' and I live and work in Philadelphia. Where the population is so fucking ignorant, I feel my IQ sliding down everyday I live here.

I never said that I think things are equal. I said that if I am better I will be rewarded.

I've come as close to the bottom of the damn bucket I am going to get. I walk 7 blocks past textbook examples of what I never want to be, what I never want anyone in my family to become.

No, I'm not in college right now.

I did go to college once upon a time, but I fucked up because I got too interested in not doing my fucking work and it got me kicked out.

I know what I did and I know I have to pay my dues if I ever want the chance to further my college education.

It feels quite a lot like and my friends are the only black people that see the merit in education and learning and being open to new experiences and just not fucking settling for what society expects for us.

My father and mother or both old enough to have experienced the civil rights movement.

My father fucking has scars on his body from fights and civil rights protests gone wrong and having to defend his little sister because a group of white boys that were trying to take advantage of her.

My mother has made herself so contrary to stereotypes that if she even thinks a white person is within sight, she won't touch chicken or watermelon.

Quite simply I don't talk about race because I think I'm better than a good 85% percent of black people and I would much rather not have the existence of them tarnish whatever reputation I hope to gain.

I don't know how I feel about Obama personally because I am just glad to have a black politican that can play fucking politics and not a glory whore like Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson. ( Well, it's certainly very arguable that Obama is a glory whore, but I'm glad that he's just not a 'token black politician.) I am just glad that a black man running for president is actually being taken seriously.

Serious enough to misquote anyway.
