I suggest all Black people watch the PBS documentary Slavery by another name.This will explain how Blacks were treated AFTER Slavery by companies and Whites who are now wealthy above imagination and how those atrocities were sanctioned by the United States Government. We owe it to ourselves to learn our history and folks I'm telling you when you view this excellent documentary you will be appalled. Slavery by Another name on PBS,it's worth watching, Black men watch this with your sons and your bois because you see what's happening now is only slightly different from what's happening now.

I also watched it. People tend to think that when slavery ended,dirt wage white people labor entered the picture. So f_____ far from true. Black convict labor rebuilt the South after the Civil war.

From 1865 til the WWII, the South's labor output was done by BLACKS who so wrongfully were convicted on the basis of being black. Nothing new known but when you hear it from descendants of the criminals ,it penetrates deep in your heart of hearts. Great Documentary and well narrated by Fishburne.

@ lostranger: Sounds like you are just as prejudiced and racist as the whites and South Asians you hate so much. How is stereotyping ALL South Asians as "racist" any different than when a white stereotypes all Blacks as thieves or all Mexicans as illegal immigrants, or all Muslims as terrorists?

Did South Asians ever commit genocide against Native Americans, Australian Aborigines, Palestinians, Bosnians, or Jews? Did South Asians ever invade/colonize any African nations and take a bunch of slaves? Do South Asians have any organizations similar in scale and creed to the KKK? Do South Asians make a bunch of websites dedicated to putting down other races or ethnic groups? Who runs all those anti-Black websites like n__, c__, etc.? All snow m________________.

There are also plenty of South Asians who post on this site regularly and defend Blacks and other minorities.

When you write something like "I don't want to hear no Black people standing up for other minorities." It makes me think you are a white troll. Only a snow n_____ would not want other minorities to unite against them. Whites benefit the most when non-whites fight amongst themselves.

Furthermore, if a Black, South Asian, East Asian, whatever, does ever claim sentiments such as "we don't want to defend, help, or work with other minorities, then this person is exactly the same as a white supremacist - he/she is just a supremacist of their own race/ethnicity.

Personally, I and most people here oppose racism and elitism in all its forms. It just happens to be the case that the MAJORITY of racism and elitism today comes from whites.

Brutha...I watched that last night. I must say that as disheartening it was to watch, listen and absorb the truth of what was being taught - - I walked away with strength, my pride was not shattered because of the information I walked away with. The Author, Douglas Blackmon and the other historians did an outstanding job on presenting the information as well.

Thank you for mentioning this...

Chuck Woolery says,

"Majority rules," he said, referring to the Proposition 8 vote in 2008. "We were born with national rights. We don't need civil rights. [African-Americans] don't need civil rights. They don't need them. They have inalienable rights granted by God in the Constitution. I mean, I'm discriminated against all the time. I don't care. It doesn't bother me. [I'm discriminated against] because I'm old."

So, there you have it. This is the voice of CONSERVATIVE AMERICA. I wonder what the CHOCOLATE COVERED WINGNUTS and the POSERS have to say about CONSERVATIVES who believe Blacks don't need OUR civil rights protected. Or better yet, the Ron Paul supporters who want him to have his way in repealing CIVIL RIGHTS because CIVIL RIGHTS infringes upon K____ freedom of discriminating against Blacks and other minorities.

To those FAKERS on the Maxine Waters article that want to dismiss her FIRST HAND ACCOUNTS of the REPUBLICAN PARTY, do y'all have any suggestions for Black people on this one? I mean besides advising us to stay OUR BLACK A____ at the house this November, and indirectly voting for the party that repeatedly says OUR BLACK A_______ don't need OUR CIVIL RIGHTS PROTECTED.

more shameful than the officer's actions is the fact that he was exonerated due to a "vanishing video." it seems like no matter how egregious or blatant a crime cops commit against black citizens, they will NEVER receive a punishment that is fitting enough. those who are in charge of holding cops accountable just don't care...it's disgusting.

I don't hate the police but I hate the Governors, Mayor and DA's who don't prosecute those corrupt police officers. I blame the judges who will not sentence corrupt police officers to prison. But most of all I blame Black folks who REFUSE TO VOTE which place those folks in position to abuse us. The most dangerous Black person is the Black person who knows the law and participate in the process, I don't understand why we don't GET THAT as citizens. Politicians fear one thing only THOSE WHO VOTE. You may hate the system but it's the one we live in go to Town and City meetings in masses and REGISTER to VOTE and VOTE. That is the only way things will change. They abuse Black folks because they know all we'll do is complain instead vote their asses out of office.

I see your point, however the argument being put forth here is a bit more general.

Am I as a "heterosexual" black man expected to accept that black men are more attractive than black women, that seems to be the general point of the survey... This bares all the hallmarks of a new psychological war against our black women, we shouldn't allow this nonsense, Hollywood and the media already treat black women with utter contempt and not long ago it was black men, next it will be black men again.... This is a recurring cycle of psychological abuse that blacks face and we must not allow any of this rubbish to manipulate us into more self-hatred! This is the work of evil.

Have I missed something or have blacks gone completely mad? SMH

You have made a good point, there was "Lucy" who is said to be the most famous hominid skeleton discovered. Lucy is said to be about 3.2,000,000 years old and they have discovered stone tools in the same area of Ethiopia (Awash valley), However, lucy isn't the oldest hominid, the oldest is named "Ardi" and is said to be 4.2,000,000 also found in Ethiopia....

I left them out though because though they were fairly intelligent (making tools) they were not exactly like us (Homo sapiens).

Okay,if that's the case let's not forget that

The "THE SCARY BLACK MAN" has gotten more black men arrested,beaten,and murdered especially when a white woman screams it!
Let's not forget that 14 policemen armed with billy clubs and firearms,stood and watched 4 cops beat the shit out of Rodney King while the 4 cops that beat claimed "THEY FEARED FOR THEIR LIVES!"

In my experience, MOST BW love BM, just as MOST BM love BW.

Brother, we all came up brainwashed by the white supremacy system in entertainment, images and education. It makes no sense to expect BW to be any better off then we are.

However, our track record of dating/sexing/marrying/and breeding with whites is much bigger than the record of BW.  we got to be real about this.

I was checking out some of the last comments and a couple of thoughts came to mind:

#1 -- i tried to imagine white males debating on a public forum about whether they liked black women or white women better -- and I couldn't.

#2 -- I tried to imagine the Palestinians -- who are engaged in a vicious, life or death war with the Israelis -- debating over whether they preferred Palestinian women or Israeli women -- and I couldn't.

#3 -- I tried to imagine a group of non-white immigrants who started their own businesses with their women by their side -- then once they made it, dumped their women and found the first white female who would have them -- and I couldn't.

#4 -- I tried to imagine a GROUP of people who have been AND still are under economic assault, police brutality assault, educational assault, political assault, and psychological assault, debating whether or not they should PREFER the same people who are waging war against them -- and UNFORTUNATELY, I didn't have to imagine it because this mentality is splattered all over this thread

So, the next time any of you black folks wonder why

blacks are falling further behind economically, educationally, medically than any other group in america

why we have the highest incarceration rate, high school dropout rate, foreclosure, and unemployment rates, and why most of the civil rights gains over the last 40 years have been wiped out

why some of you RIGHT NOW can't find a job or a job that pays a living wage

or why blacks who have been in this country for 500 years STILL have NO BUSINESS or ECONOMIC base, but many non-white immigrant MEN (who are unified with the women of their race) are running 95% of the businesses in the BLACK COMMUNITY

just look over threads like this one -- and all your questions will be answered.

While we focus on why we have the "right" to date white males or females...(like our lives depended on being with them)

white people aren't spending one second of time wondering and worrying if they should date us -- that's why they don't have these silly azz articles on white websites.

Because less than 9% of white people marry outside their race and the majority of that 8 percent DO NOT MARRY BLACKS.

While we're beating each other up over, white people are figuring out how many of us will have a job, an education, a prison sentence, or a date with the undertaker -- and how they will stay in POWER by pitting the black male against the black female and vice versa

carry on...

I think the real problem is not that black women don't know how to be women, because the black mother was always in the home.  The real problem is that many of these black boys don't know how to be black men because their father's weren't there to teach them.  So, now we have a problem where black men don't know how to relate to a black woman on an intimate level (man to woman level) other than in a motherly role. So, he expects her to do the things his mother would do, instead of what a mate would do.  This frustrates the hell out of black women.  However, just to keep a man, most of us will succumb to this dysfunctionality.

What ends up happening is that the black man will try to make his wife or girlfriend flip flop between mother and wife.  When it's time to take care of household business (talk to kid's doctor, take kids to doctor or hospital, help kid's with homework, file for ADC, attend parent - teacher conferences, make payment arrangements with the bill collector or utility company, get the carpet cleaned, etc.) the black man wants the black woman to play mother and be the one who takes care of this with little of his involvement.  However, when it's time to fix dinner or sex time, or when he's around his friends,the black man wants the black woman to act in a subordinate position of a lowly wife. 

This is wrong. Ultimately, He shows little interest in the black woman's (and the kids)
emotional, physical, spiritual needs, talents, abilities, knowledge, intellectual qualities, nor her hopes and dreams for the future.

Barely, we get regular and healthy consideration and communication.  How can a husband or significant other starve his wife from recieving what's rightfully supposed to be given within a relationship between a man and woman?  How can he exclude her from recieving the basic
benefits of this union, while living within the same home with this individual?  This is torture
and a meaningless existence. So, the person is not really living fully, but is a servant living in servitude. So, How can he expects her to live happily and function accordingly?

This comes with just the regular black guy who hasn't tacked on baby mama drama, infidelity, lying and verbal abuse, physical abuse, gigolo syndromes, etc.  When all this is tacked on, the black woman then opens her mouth and let you have it. Rightfully so because she is suffering.

Another note, why do some black men who have a history of cheating, physically abusing, cussing out their girlfriends and wives; complain when they are questioned for staying out late or when their activity is investigated?
I mean, if you destroy the trust between you and your woman, why would it anger you when she doesn't trust you?

I am extremely glad that you watched this excellent documentary, it proves the concentrated policy that was used to disenfranchise and break the spirit of the American(then) Negroes. But as you saw we stood up to that evil and eventually overcame it. If NewsOne and other Black oriented news outlets really wanted to educate and inform our people they'd tell this history. I sincerely that if Black people actually knew what our ancestors HAD to live thru they could not help from doing their best in life. This documentary as others proved the strength, fortitude and dignity we have as Black people. I also believe if they really are a "chosen people" then we are ones. No group has endured what we have and still moved forward. I hope all Black folks watch this educational and excellent documentary.

None of us should be surprised. The NAACP was founded by Whites with Jewish money, so if they want to reward their own, it's only natural:

"During the first few decades of the 20th century, the leaders of American Jewry expended time, influence and their economic resources for black endeavors - civil rights, philanthropy, social service, organizing - and historian Hasia Diner notes that "they made sure that their actions were well publicized" as part of an effort to demonstrate increasing Jewish political clout.[9] Julius Rosenwald was a Jewish philanthropist who donated a large part of his fortune to supporting education of blacks in the south.[10] Jews played a major role in the founding of the NAACP, which was founded in 1909. Jews involved in the NAACP included Joel Spingarn (the first chairman), Arthur Spingarn, Henry Moskowitz, and—more recently—Jack Greenberg."

somebody must have told the NAACP that funding will be cut drastically unless they put a pinky for an award... this was an affirmative action award...

Delilah's (pink women) are already the biggest recipients of affirmative action... so to keep pink males from continually whining and saying WHAT ABOUT ME they had to give George the award..

Keep showing yourself for what you really are.

All those years of pretending that media was

"misrepresenting you" and that you were not

racist is quicly being nullified by self evident actions

and events that you are encouraging rather than condemning.

Please I hope someone continues to video post and document these
events.

Wonder what Afro-puppet Cain will have to say about this or if he will
be spineless enough to dismiss it?

Saving a copy of the video. Watch it and at one point they
intentionally say "My Knickers" and dismissively say they
are referring to short pants.

Again, that's why I personally don't believe in using the N word
because I know that no matter how people try to redefine it,
at it's core, it is intended to be offensive.

Crude, shamelessly inconsiderate, hypocritical and disrespectful.

And like I said before, it's funny that whites always seem to trash talked rap and other forms of creative Black expression until they are able to copy and exploit it.

By the way, hypocritical disrespect like this that you casually excuse is why Blacks
for the most part want nothing to do with you but thanks for confirming what you
really stand for.

Your alternative is for us to be in the Republican plantation. No thank you since you do realize that the Republicans agree with the war on terror, anti-civil liberty laws (like the Patriot Act & the USA Commissions Act), torture centers, economic austerity, and the massive cuts to the social safety net. Most black people henceforth reject that agenda and with good reasonings. I'm an Independent. I'm not a Republican nor Democrat. Topix AA forum shows a section of black Americans not every black American. You reactionary types always exaggerate issues and try your best for black people to worship your political philosophies. Yet, we don't because we black people are wise enough to see that your views have been discredited from trickled down economics to the Pax Americana foreign policy deception. Also, many black people don't live in the ghetto. The ghetto is a location and a wide spectrum of African Americans live in the ghetto that don't fit into your stereotypical perceptions.

I heard arguments to the effect that it's hard to believe that the media creates the image of the Black criminal given the reality of crime in AA communities. The further make arguments to the effect that liberals are contorting themselves in trying to prove that Blacks really are like other human beings, and that Black culture is not pathological but rather like any other culture. And, of course, they're convinced that only draconian measures can prevail against the barbarism of this criminal community. I can point out to them that whatever the statistics say, the vast majority of Black people--even in the GHETTOES--are NOT criminals, dope dealers, gang bangers, etc. But for people who have what Fanon called a "fixed idea of the Negro" (similar to Sartre called the "idea of the Jew"), none of this matters. Somehow the young people with the Algebra Project, or just the average inner city kid, is somehow NOT representative of Black America or AA culture, but the gangsters and thugs are supposedly representative. For some reason, Little Melvin is more representative of Black culture than Rev. Jamal Bryant. Similarly, the vast majority of 1.5 billions Muslims, not to probably millions risking their lives to fight both secular and theocratic despotism, supposedly do not represent Islam, but Bin Laden does. Somehow i find that unconvincing. And I remained convinced that even though jihadists would not be welcome by Dr. King, the vast majority of Muslims would.

The National Front is a FASCIST political entity. If they took power, freedom would die in France. Of course, that would depend on whether they also succeeded in destroying the Republic. I seem to recall that Le Pen was known for engaging in torture while with the paratroopers in Algeria. He has been known to to deny even that the Holocaust happened. And if I'm not mistaken--it could be some other European reactionary--but I think it was Le Pen who got in trouble for peddling Nazi literature. (Ther are laws against that in Europe) But from what I can tell, most of the terrorism in France--at least when I was there--stemmed from the Front and its supporters. Now if an Islamicist party were to take over France--and destroy the Republic so that they could no be removed from office--this would mean a theocrati fascism rather than a secular one. But....that CAN'T happen in France. France would have to become majority Muslim, and fundamentalist Muslim at that. Where would 4% of the population get the votes to take over power in France? They don't control the police or military, so and Islamist coup d'etat is not an option. Also, how many Franch Muslims would be OPPOSED to the idea themselves. Many of them not only escaped poverty by immigrating to France, they escaped politcial repression. How many Francophone Algerian women would want to live under something like a French "Islamic Salvation Front"? Again, far too many "Muslims " (especially youth) in France are simply too secular. Some are educated at the Sorbonne--like the Algerian student I met occasionally in the Quartier Latin who would yawn or roll his eyes if you mentioned the Quran in his presence. Or the North Africans I met with the anti-racist group (no longer extant) called SOS. You think they'd agree to live under a theocracy? Are you kidding??? There are not enough Muslims numerically, and many of them wouldn't accept Islamcist rule. It CAN'T happen, at least not in the forseeable future. But I'm not so sure that a fascistic National Front government isn't possible. They now have greater representation in Parliament than the Socialist or Communists, who were a dominant bloc for at least a part of the time while I was there. And trust me--I even wrote on this back in 1988--there was more terrorist violence against North Africans and Blacks by rightist thugs, than violence against white Frenchmen by North African Muslims...at least at that time.

I agree the first Tuskegee Airmen movie was better. There was one moment of a black wife mentioned. That was when a pilot was talked about having to go home with 3rd degree Burns. So the black woman gets/deserves damaged goods. Unfortunately that black ladies weren’t shown as romantic interests shows more work needs to be done. We need to remember this the next time you hear George Lucas isn’t racist because he has a black fiancée. Ultimately it was Lucas and other whites that put this film out.

I was greatly displeased with the so-called historical reference to Brotha’s portrails of there actions in the film. However going in I knew that in a system of racism/white supremacy, the only way the oppressor would promote, fund anything positive relating to Afrikan life or circumstances is when it benifits the system of racism/white supremacy. The salt in the wound was the pilot’s fixation with the white woman, (discusting to say the lest) there were no sista’s in the medical wards or anything. Truly a made for Gollywood movie to capture the minds or confused (VWS) people.

As a black man I was insulted to NOT see any sistas in this film. The black woman was made totally invisible. Black women have always stood by their men. And this clown of a pilot”Lighting” was so head over heels for a white chick?? This was disgusting! A total slap in the face! This was just more interracial propaganda from The Beast. I wanted my money back. Hollyweird always has an agenda. That’s what black people have to realize. Therefore,we must always have our third eye open at all times.

a quote i found interesting:

"In a 2011 Gallup poll, 84 percent of whites and 96 percent of blacks said they approved of interracial marriage."

funny how a higher percentage of blacks than whites welcome interracial marriage, even though blacks have a history of not being welcomed by whites. i've noticed that whenever i've so much as suggested that blacks stick with their own, other blacks would immediately jump up and furiously call me "stupid," "racist," and a slew of other names. i've never in my life witnessed whites coming to the defense of IR dating/marriage to the degree that blacks do. it irks the hell out of me that our people fight so hard for the acceptance and love of the people that generally couldn't give two s____ about us.

Read your on-point review of ‘Red Tails’ and I agree wholeheartedly. I was surprised when I discovered (over the years) how timid we BW were when it came to speaking truth to BM

it is such a contradictory mix of “superwoman BW” VS the “timid BW who is so afraid of alienating BM that we are mute about their betrayals. I think it is due to our secret understanding that the bond between us is so fragile, it wouldn’t take much to break it altogether.

It is a terrible position for a group of women who were brutalized by 500 years of slavery and racism, in a world that hates black people and females — to know we must fend for ourselves. At that point, whatever good will we can squeeze out of our fragile relationships becomes too precious to risk losing by speaking the truth.

Also, I think BW take out a lot of our pain and anger over these betrayals and mistreatment on other BW because we have internalized the LIE that the BW’s feelings matter not to anyone but herself

and so BW take this position with an ease that is heart breaking

I think your review is something that all BM and BW should read and seriously think about. We are too quick to accept the white racist interpretation of our images and history, which I suspect is part of our need for white validation as in:

“That white man Lucas stood up for black people, he’s a good white man, he’s a brother now!”

to

“Look at us, white world, do see how brave and strong we can be? Won’t you change your minds about mistreating us once you see this film?”

as though white people are mistreating us because they didn’t know how great the Tuskegee airmen were and now that a white man (Lucas) made this movie, it will stop whites from calling us “n_____r” and being racist.

Keep speaking TRUTH, Sis, because there is NO WAY a black man could have made a movie about white men, left white women out of the movie altogether , hooked up the blondest, blue-eyed white man with a beautiful BW

and had white people applauding and praising our film.

In fact, they wouldn’t have supported it at all.

It is a shame to NOT see the women that look like your mothers, sisters, daughters, friends, lovers, and wives

and not even notice their absence

As a practice – due primarily to the sensitivity of my work within the Information Security sector, I try to stay out of online forum, as they are ALL monitored by three-lettered governmental agencies.

However, because I am really passionate about this area of concern, and REALLY love my people, I have chosen to share a recent E-mail message that I wrote to a colleague – asking my thoughts of the movie, “Red Tails.”

This colleague was very interested in my thoughts, as I am a member of the Detroit Chapter of the Tuskegee Airmen, Incorporated. I have the good fortune of knowing several original Tuskegee Airmen, and have heard the actual real-life stories of several of the Airmen that were being portrayed in the film.

Here is the question that was asked of me by a colleague, whose name I have changed in order to protect her identity:

Thanks Edward. …And we’re proud to know you! Looking forward to seeing the movie. Do you know if it has stayed true to the history and persons? Sure hope so. Love, Kim.

The following was my response after having viewed the movie for the first time:

Kim,

It’s not my intent to be a spoiler, but the truth of the matter is that George Lucas failed to stay true to the real life events. However, he was successful in perpetuating the Hollywood status quo of showing and defining Blacks in its’ own image and likeness, which is decidedly racist.

The outline sketches of stories that occurred are there. However, for anyone who actually knows the segregated history and circumstances under which the Tuskegee Airmen were required to serve, George Lucas chose not to deal with the actual history as it was.

Here is a case in point:

Hollywood has engaged in an overt practice for years, which deliberately refuses to show African American men and women in Positive, Loving Relationships. In Hollywood’s blueprint, it serves their purposes and agenda for the world to only see us as dysfunctional, and wholly incapable of healthy romantic situations that would propagate and perpetuate ourselves as a group that God created. It is very conspicuous that anytime you observe a Black woman in a supposedly romantic relationship on the big screen, she has to be shown with someone other than a Black man (Translation-White male to the rescue). However, if she happens to be coupled with a man from her own ethnic community, the couple is usually depicted as down-trodden, profoundly impoverished, or the Black man is encased in the role of abusive husband or father . By contrast, Hollywood seems committed to showing Black men as pleasure objects for White women. In this particular exhibit, a Tuskegee Pilot became romantically involved with an Italian woman living in a nearby village. The other template that routinely gets perpetuated is that of effeminate Black man. Hollywood has played this particular hand so frequently, a critically thinking person would be left with no other conclusion than Hollywood has committed its work to the continued degradation and disintegration of the African American Family.

True to Hollywood’s form, George Lucas stayed loyal to the standard script. What was historically represented by the Tuskegee Experiment was the cream-of-the-crop “healthy, talented, brilliant African American Men and Women,” who were responsible for orchestrating and maintaining every conceivable aspect of an ALL-NEGRO Air Force Base, which was located in Ramitelli Air Base, Italy. Everyone from the very top commander to the lowest ranking none-support personnel were Black. However, the one pilot who finds love in Lucas’ version of the storyline, had to drive miles around the countryside to establish and cultivate a romantic relationship with a woman who didn’t speak his language, and he never learned to speak hers throughout the entire movie.

In the meantime, the real history, based upon details conveyed by real Tuskegee Airmen speak of the Beautiful Black Brilliant, Shapely, Substantive Women that were stationed at every base where the Airmen were segregated. Additionally, African American women in the Army Nursing Corps were in sufficient numbers – sufficiently available, as the majority were single (never married). According to some of the honorable Airmen that I have had the good fortune of knowing, life had its challenges, but overall it was great! There was an entire Corps of Tuskegee Nurses (100% African Women), Tuskegee Doctors, Lawyers, Chaplains, Chefs, and a significant number of Maintenance Personnel that maintained the aircraft (All Africans). This represents the actual relational possibilities of Tuskegee Airmen, who operated within a segregated military unit. However, there was not a single Black Female shown throughout the ENTIRE movie, which struck me as incredible!

For those who are aware of the subtle racial programming that shows up in the movies produced by Hollywood, this movie will be regarded as just another example of sophisticated racism that is weaved throughout movies that are regularly delivered to the American psyche. And for that reason, it will probably win an award.

As a researcher and observer of human behavior, I found it somewhat fascinating, but not enormously entertaining. I gave it a solid 2.5 out of 5 stars.

EdwardH, thank you so much for making an exception to your policy of abstaining from online comments to make such a forceful and clear statement about the brain-trashing and revisionist history that the power of white people who are able to practice white supremacy in the entertainment industry do, in fact, practice— with devastating effect. I’m glad you are we;l-versed in the real story because I listened as a young black male said he wasn’t surprised that there were no black females in the film because there were not that many black females on the bases for the airmen to be around. And, had it not been for your comment, it’s likely that I’d never have rebutted that statement. Thank you again, sir. Please know that your time and effort in such a thorough response will pay dividends. I have hopes that, soon, we’ll see more than one outstanding film that is much more faithful to real events. Nothing any group of white soldiers did in WWII compared to the triple-war the Tuskegee Airmen fought. I look even more forward to the day when that genius and valor is focused solely on replacing the global system of white domination with a system of justice.

@ Kofi

Before Cree’s movie review, I had never associated the “Red Tails” with the “red-tailed baboon” so I did a little searching and found that the “red-tailed monkey” was very common in Africa. Supposedly, the black men were called “Red Tails” because the tails of their planes were painted red.

I found a post on a Yahoo site where some white person asked,

“What is closer to a red-tailed baboon? Michele Obama? Or Barack Obama?

And this was posted THREE years ago, so it is clear that there is a connection between red tails, monkeys, and black people in the minds of racist man and racist woman

I could almost hear some white people snickering as black people wax eloquently about what a great movie “Red Tails” is…

But that is always a problem, letting our enemies create our images and tell our stories and expecting accuracy. That is just not a logical outcome OR expectation.

When I think of white women writing books like “The Help” making millions of dollars by telling BW’s stories I tried but couldn’t think of a single black female author who has attempted or been rewarded for telling a WW’s story . I suspect white people don’t give book and movie deals to black authors who step outside the bounds of what white people think of as “black writing”

Regarding your comment on “The Help” I haven’t seen it (and really don’t plan to)

If black men were absent I think that is more evidence that the white media manipulators want to keep BM and BW separated.

The difference between “Red Tails” and “The Help” is — in my opinion — these black women were NOT uplifted or turned into heroes or heroines, nor did any of them have a romance with a white male.

Given the circumstances of black females cleaning up dirty , nasty, trifling, and lazy white women’s houses, I doubt any BM in the audience cared whether there were black males shown as the love mates of these downtrodden black females.

But you do raise an interesting point. Since I didn’t see the movie, did any of the BW have a man?

This is why I am against the promotion of IRR, if it happens it happens, but a drive for IRR should be viewed with suspicion... This is not new though, they had an even bigger IRR campaign in Brazil that was discontinued in the 1950s. It was specifically set up to eradicate black people from brazil which is why the Brazilians are all mixed up...This will explain it in better detail... It was called racial whitening!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racial_whitening

I also once found a document which was posted on a racist white forum which contained information that explained how the white supremacists were actually encouraging low class white women to date black men!... you'd better believe it!

They were claiming that segregation was the biggest mistake white America made because blacks multiplied during that time which is the opposite of what they wanted... I will try to re-find the doc and will post it here, it was deep.

I have another document that was a speech from an apartheid president of south Africa telling his government to flood South Africa with cheap white prostitutes from Europe to help infect black men!... I kid you not!!!....And there's more!

My people, we have been had!...

I find it troubling to see that we keep looking for racist man and racist woman to betray us kindly on the big screen. George Lucas pulled a Svengali move on us by first reporting that he invested his own money into this big budget film but he believes he did a disservice to the so called African American community since it was his belief that we wouldn’t support it and no one will ever again invest in another big budget African American film, we should have said “so what”. Instead what did we do, support it. Not only did he recoup his investement, but got a chance to clown us. The name of the game is racism/white supremacy not lets lift up the so called African American communities self/esteem. This is something we must do for self. Boycott these things that are not constructive to and for us. We should know by now that given any opportunity racist man and woman will degrade us. WAKE UP!

Admittedly, when the images of Rihanna came out following the fight, I was one of those who wanted to hang CB. There was so much pain in her face. Since then, I've watched the media, women's organizations and every other person with a mic try to destroy him. I don't condone what he did, but he was young, stupid and he has paid his debt for it. He's beyond talented (although it's not evident of late). If Charlie Sheen can shoot Nicole Kidman, beat Denise Richards and his ex-wife and still land a multi-million dollar contract, why can't Chris?

People in the industry letting him slide with a stern tongue lashing. Then it's back to "it's just good ol'Mel".

Tommy Lee beat the brakes off of Pamela Anderson in more ways than one. Nobody mentions that anymore. He did numerous percussion guest appearances on collaborations.

The list goes on but Chris Brown won't be able to live this down until maybe another 10-15 years min. It's almost like he's in a virtual prison even though he has his freedom.

Yeah, its an old pattern. “Blade” was another movie where a black male “super hero”

“didn’t get the girl”.

I wonder if Snipes complained about it?

Im still working on a theory about this phenomenon, but for now I’ll take a page out of Cress theory and say it may make white people feel insecure/inadequate when they see a black couple express sexual affection on the big screen?

Its just a suspicion.

Many Black people seem to have a certain potentcy/vitality… in their style of communication, and sexuality is a form of communication; as is dance, music and other art forms.

Maybe the “loverless black hero” is a way to keep black people from “changing the game” of what it means to be a hero.

@ Thwack

Your suspicions are right on point.

That was the main theme of our book, “The Interracial Con Game” because the evidence that “black love/sex is taboo” is too overwhelming to deny it.

I think you’re right, everything black people do well seems to make white people more insecure. Our failures VALIDATE them and make them feel normal

because secretly I suspect that they know they are not, otherwise, why the need to inferiorize all non-white people? That just doesn’t add up to healthy self-esteem…

In our book, there was a black female who was said she asked why there were more black men and women in movies and films making love and the white person she asked (i forget the exact quote) said, “White america isn’t ready for black love”

or something to that effect.

I thought I'd share my little story with you all since this forum is full of hate!

I'm a 25 year old Black American woman who just got engaged!! My man is a 26 year old Black African, and he proposed to me last weekend. We've been dating for about 3 years. We met during the last year of college when he was studying Engineering and I, social work.

I'm so happy to have found a wonderful Black man with family values and strong work ethnic. He is my hero and inspiration because he came from poverty in Africa and made something of himself. He is now doing his Masters degree in Engineering. He is a great role model for the young Black boys in our community.

I'm tell you ladies, never let a good Black man go! They are out there, you just need to be patient and not be stuck up about getting ballers. And don't look over the great Black men who might not have "Swagger" but who are great partners.

Oh, and open up to foreign Black men also. Another one of my girlfriends is now dating an African man, and she is amazed at the level of quality some of these men are.

TrojanPam, here is another one, Morpheous in the Matrix.

I suspect by the time of the third Matrix, this “oversight” was becoming more of a distraction, and since they ran out of valid plot material, they decided to reunite Morpheous with an old flame “Niobi”.

But they even had to sabotage that by:

A. Making it apparent that Morpheous and Niobi broke up on bad terms and still harbored some resentment between them.

B. That wasn’t enough, they had to make it worse by leaking some vieled idea that Commander Lok was involed with Niobi past or present in some way….

So for the final movie of the trilogy, you were presented with 3 main black characters all in pretty much constant conflict/confusion/resentment/jealousy of each other.

(((shakin my head)))

In one scene where Morpheous and Niobi are trying outrun the robots, they even have her yell at him; “can’t you keep up!”

Meanwhile, Neo and Trinity’s affection for each other is constantly demonstrated on a level that is so deep and vast its almost “above sexual” (even though they did get a f__K scene.

To sum up, they key to this problem is people like us making our own movies.

The technology has never been cheaper; the problem is the talent.

And this is why I agree that Black Love truly is a REVOLUTIONARY Act(ion). If it wasn’t there wouldn’t be such efforts to usurp it. Lucas is sexually infecting a Black female with his anti-human virus so he tells her through the big screen – healthy Black men want white females and only jacked up ones (burned up dude) “want” you. This thing of white domination is diabolically masterful – until WE wake the hell up. If we REALLY want to fight this disease, we will commit to be with each other, protect each other, procreate each other. That’s what the anti-humans DON’T WANT.

Some of us will join CREE in discussing whether we’re REALLY prepared to do the work of seeing ourselves in all of our “crystal Blackness” later on. If we can really be honest about “how Black is too Black?” perhaps we can begin to feel for each other as we should and thus not allow the Lucas’ of the world to get away with such insults.

I’m quite disgusted by this thread. Not that it was not constructive, because it certainly was, but none of the black males thought it to be appropriate to apologize for the umbrage and anguish that black females have suffered from us (black males) consciously, unconsciously, directly, or indirectly.

Even though I (a black male) have not committed (and a number of other black males have not committed) any crimes against black females (as a whole, or individually) detailed in this article or out side this article, if feel I must apologize for the crap that many black males have directly or indirectly allowed or committed against our black females.

In conclusion: I fully understand that black males and black females are both victims (the primary targets) under the system of white supremacy. Even though this is the bitter reality, I still feel compelled and find it apropos to apologize to all black females whom have suffered victimization or pain from any black man directly or indirectly. I also wanted to let black females know that we do (black males) care and love you, even though we many not express it.

Again my apologies,

Sincerely,
A concerned and intensely victimized black male:

God Bless, Peace, & Black Love
