Do I hate blacks? Of course not, I'm not black and will never know how it feels to be black, only that I know it's not easy. Racism agaisnt blacks doesnt just hurt blacks but whites too. When those ass holes did that to that poor black girl it was appaling and I wan't to apologize on behalf of the white community for that atrocity. When members of my race do shit like that it makes me ashamed to be white. Also I'll apologize for the nooses, NO ONE needs to be intimidated like that and the majority of white people do not condone such behavior. And "just another whitey" god won't do shit. People must do stuff for themselves! Promoting individual rights and not falling for "my race is superior to yours" bullshit racism that has no basis in reality is the way to go. And about drugs, white supremacist probably do more ice (glass or meth), snow (blow or coke), and rocket fuel (or angel dust or PCP) then any other group of people I can think of! I'm not accusing anyone of being a racist just throwing that out there.

I think the last 2 lines of your post said it all: As Malcolm X said: The problem is still here. But because people are closing their eyes, the problem is getting worse. Thanks for your voice.

Bringing it up in every conversation as thou the white race has closed the door. God is in control and you reap what you sow. God will close the door if you only look at the back of the door.

This is why people are getting racist again, We are tired of being blamed for what happened in the past. Then your children are showing what is in the future. Al Sharpten is showing what the future holds for black people. Oh but bring up one white guy that uses the wrong words on tv or radio. Then alow all the black youth to slander any color race or religion. Your black neighborhoods are what they are because you won't let the past be past. You don't see as much white killing white and turning our next generation into crack addicts.. Thank you Jesus that you forgive, because the blacks don't forgive. Jesus will not forgive them Its people like you that dont let the past die. This is why people are getting racist again, We are tired of being blamed for what happened in the past.

How could you ignore what Malcom X said? He hit the nail on the head. We as Black people need to WAKE UP!!! We are nearing another presidential election and have one Black male running and one White female both Democrats. What are we going to do? I am not telling you who to vote for, I am saying we have a serious problem that some Black folks, particularly those between the ages of 18 and 30 WHO DO NOT VOTE. We have to move beyond the jealousy between us and self hatred and get out there be a part of the public, go work for MacDonalds--hey it is a DAMN JOB! you have to start somewhere. Get an education, wether it is a college education or just from picking up a book at the library or search online for Black people and African American history becuase we all know how history is taught in schools. Watch something other than 106 and Park and MTV; watch CNN or C-Span. Educate yourself; start voting for the one person you think is going to benefit you and your community. Don't vote and then complain because you/we are being deiscriminated against. VOTE and then complain if you see the candidate you voted for is not keeping his or promises to you. Have self pride. act and dress like you have a sense of pride. Don't be afraid to do the right thing for YOU. No one in public office make it work for you. You have to to know who you are, where you came from and just have some self pride and VOTE. Damn. How could you ignore what Malcom X said? He hit the nail on the head.
