    But I'm not sure if I agree that fetishism is the root of the struggle of African Americans or other oppressed groups.

    I can understand if you personally or as a group would despise it. I just hope you and I could get along apart from race.

    Which I think we do.

    Being white and from Texas, I feel no cultural identity whatsoever. I'm not expecting everyone to feel that way, and it has it's downsides.

    Is it unrealistic/overly idealistic for me to say I wish everyone could just be chill?

    No. You should be able to get past someone saying a word or phrase that you heard "a long time ago". You can't put your "brand" on words. But at the same time, be yourself.

    The opposite. It's the diversion from base struggle.


    Not until you renege. :eek:

    I've been chill from the beginning. I'm not getting into any arguments about the disparity of "rights" between blacks and whites because my white arse doesn't know enough to make any major claims about the issue. All I know that it is stupid and that I am ashamed that such discrimination still occurs.

    If I apologize on behalf of white people, do I get to wear parachute pants?


    What was that about fetishism?


    Anyway, I think I can agree than, fetishism is a diversion from serious class issues.

    He admits not to know enough about something he couldn't know enough about. It seems to me to be the opposite attitude to yours.

    Yeah, I was joking. I can't do anything, because I personally haven't done much wrong.

    But I will bring back parachute pants.

    I've been discriminated against by the government and private financial institutions alike because of my race. I've been submersed in black culture most of my life (from both white and black friends) and I went to a 90% black high school right outside the ghetto for four years. My college, I have not seen population figures on, but also has a large black population and my English 101 (which was rhetoric based) was basically a racial issues class. To assume that I don't know about such issues because I'm white is just plain racist.

    Poor white men. They suffer from so much racism from blacks, yet their culture is so superior to theirs. :(
