First off, the term racist is used way too loosely nowadays, if it doesn't truely apply, please don't use it. Obama is mixed, people will call him black because he is the first president who isn't fully white. It happens a lot, people who aren't fully white and have some black in them are generally called black, it happens, none of us are offended, you don't need to be offended for us. Im just as sick as the next guy with blacks who use slavery as an excuse for their problems, but you kinda gotta admit we were set up to fail. Yes we were released from slavery, thanks (I guess). So now you can stay in the south which is still clearly racist with no money or way of getting good money. The civil war wasn't about slavery so that family guy line is useless. African-american isn't a stupid term, its what we prefer to call ourselves. At this point, we can't call ourselves *beep* african-american, colored, negroes, afro-american, what do I call myself again? Just tell me, whatever makes everyone happy please. Oh yea, one post really tripped me up. You know the one that blamed slavery on blacks because we drove the boat over here. According to that poster us blacks should appreciate slavery or go back to africa where we are too dumb to keep up with the rest of the world. Why don't you just give me my shackles back and I'll call you master. And black people, take some responsibility, make your own life. I know most are set up in *beep* situations where its almost impossible to get out, but we can at least help ourselves. Lets not hurt our own community and just like other ethnic groups we can make it out too.
But please, please, can someone tell me what this all has to do with the movie notorious?
