| BengaBenga said: Why does no one here take N'Gai serious? I don't think he would have said this stuff if he wasn't actually offended. Besides this is not the first of these stories. All the arguments are correct, but I personally cannot say whether shouldn't feel offended about something like this. The argument about "We killed numerous white people as well" may sound totally logical, still white people in general have always been the opressors and have never been opressed by another race. |
The Irish, Scottish, and Jews disagree off the top of my head. This myth where only black people were slaves and only they were oppressed in history really needs to stop. Every race and nationality that has ever existed has been oppressed and demeaned by some larger group at one point or another. That is just the way the world works. The faqct that we teach opression of races with such a heavy focus on only American wrong doings really depresses me. We have a lot of shitty things in our past, and they should absolutely not be forgotten but they are not special. They are par for the course sadly enough, and that should absolutely be remembered. You wanna see some really bad racism, then go to Hawaii and find where the natives like to hang out and make sure they know you are a white American. It will give you a whole new perspective.
