I'm (white girl) hated by my fiance's black parents, is this racism too right?

[Anonymous]

We haven't been with anyone else, both of us are virgins and we're looking forward towards our wedding this October. I don't fit the norm of the girls that sleep around. Then again, I've socialized with people of different background and races from an early age. My parents have several friends of different cultures. We live in a mixed community full of blacks, hispanics, Asians, etc.

Here is the big issue:
My family like my boyfriend and are happy with us but his parents HATE me. Shockingly when he introduced me to them the first time, they greeted me in a cold and indifferent manner. They didn't smile at all. I didn't feel good in that house and had to make an excuse to leave after only being there for 40 minutes.

If a white person has been respectful but the hatred is coming from the black person, is this racism too? Can blacks really be racists? I'm really shocked. I've never experienced this treatment before. They really hate me for no reason. I have done nothing to them.

Yes

No

I was literally in tears when I got home. I couldn't understand what on earth I did wrong, what I did to them.

What on earth is up with you disgusting racists? Why can people date whoever they want to and be happy without the ''oh you sucker, oh your children will be ugly, oh I'll disown you, etc.'' First I have to deal with bad treatment from his parents and now this.

[RedStealthOperative]

Sorry that you went through that experience. As long as you are in love with this man solely because you are in love with him for who he is as a person rather than some fetishization, I don't see any issue here.

I think a lot of people, black or white, from a much earlier time are still set in their ways towards the other race. His parents and family probably just see white as the enemy, regardless of the content of the person's character, because of everything black people have gone through in history. Blacks have been treated like less than dogs, so an automatic response of them having their guard up is understandable, but you being treated with contempt isn't, especially if your intentions are purely good.

I've heard it disagreed among many that it's racism, but it will almost always be considered "reverse-discrimination".

[Asker]

I'm actually shocked some horrible comments here to be honest, esp the one that falsely accusing me of dating him for being black. I love him from being a family-oriented guy, waiting till marriage, having the same goals as me (going to college and studying hard to provide for our future kids) and overall being a great person making me happy.

[RedStealthOperative]

And that's why you deserve a guy like that. You seem like a pure soul.

Unfortunately there are a lot of unnecessarily harsh, and disgusting people on the web who say whatever they want, because there aren't any concrete consequences. It can be hard, but I've learned to tune out the negativity. Know that in spite of the haters, there's people out there who do support you and what you stand for. I certainly do.

I hope everything works out for you with your fiancé's family! By the sound of it, you're both on the road to a strong, healthy, loving relationship. :)

[maximumpower]

shocking in a way that you haven't already figured this out.
don't expect their attitudes to change if you end up getting married.
also remember that you marry INTO a family.
unless he makes a solid and clean break with them, the issue will bubble up again.

[Asker]

It's sad that they don't care about their son's happiness, nor getting to know me more, my likes nor our goals towards finishing college and saving money for our future kids. I'll try my best to get them to warm up but I can't do much if they refuse to.

[BlackBeauty90]

I am sorry you have to experience this sweetie but the unfortunate thing, is African Americans can be quite racist. They just bray the loudest about racism to detract from the fact they ARE racists themselves. And that is the exact situation here.

African Americans are racist to Indians (both native & east). They are racist to Asians. They are racist to Hispanics. They are racist to even people of recent African ancestry.

I have a friend whose mother is white. He has had African Americans say he isn't "black enough". When his father is from Nigeria he's "more black" than these African Americans (/generations of mixed ancestry & little authentic African culture now).

It is and isn't something you see so rampant in African countries and other African groups in other countries, say the UK for example, and I blame general American ignorance & racism for such. As colonialism as it is worse in countries like Brazil or Cube or even the Caribbean where people of African ancestry can be treated even worse than they are in the US.

[BlackBeauty90]

And for the record I am African. I would never call myself African American because, thank god, I'm not.

[MCheetah]

Not all of us African Americans are like BLM. Please don't become as racist as the people you deride. There's bad people in every group.

[BlackBeauty90]

@MCheetah That's African Americans in general.

[MCheetah]

@BlackBeauty90
What's like African Americans in general?

[Lochlan]

When it comes building a serious relationship of this racial make-up, I've seen the African American family often being unaccepting, regardless of the genders. There are particular belief systems and interactions that are not able to be had in peace or at least have contention. They want in-laws of the same tribe so they can be racist behind closed doors or don't want to consider being open-minded. As long as the couple treats each other well and is supportive of one another, it shouldn't matter. Mulatto children still are lobbed in with being "black in America" and must wrestle with that identity, as well as, not seeing the "advantage of being white". These are things that shouldn't have to be discussed but for some reason, still apply in reality. The term N1gg3r is not being perpetuated by white people but by blacks as a term of endearment, with everyone's speech being compelled by default to not say it openly except for one group of people. You are excluded and if you choose this future, you are choosing to encounter being ostracized on this basis, basically by everyone, because you went outside your "tribe". The concept of race, socially shouldn't have to exist. Looking at humanity from outside itself, we're all just apes and if this is what continues to be a social issue that keeps us from working together to be a galactic civilization, then we're pretty lame.

[HotPinkDominatrxSlut]

I'm a very blonde hair blue eyed beautiful white girl. I'm married to and have kids with a very dark sexy black man. Blacks especially women are the most racist people of all. My parents and all of my family is very accepting of my relationship. The men in my husband's family are accepting of me and so are men of all races and blonde hair blue eyed white girls. The woen in my husband's family are all very hateful and jealous towards me and so are many nonblonde women especially black women. All of my sisters are married to and have kids with very dark sexy black men too and they have the same experience. Black women are always so hateful and jealous of blonde hair blue eyed white girls especially those of us that are in relationships with and/or have black kids because we're the most beautiful girls on the planet and men of all races love and worship u and they're the ugliest woken on the planet and no man of any race loves or wants them. Black women are always so jealous of me and they especially get mad and jealous when they see me with my very dark sexy black husband andy black kids. i laugh at them. I find their jealousy amusing and funny.

[blissinanarchy1]

Just like white on black racism, you have to take in other factors as well. This is why politics inflame this. Conservatives will immediately call this racism against whites, liberals will say no such thing as black people being racist. There could be other factors. They may dislike you for an unknown reason other than skin color. They may dislike you simply being highly protective of their son. They might just be assholes who don’t like people. Or yes, they may be prejudiced because of your skin color.

[Asker]

I hope I get accepted one day. I don't know what can I do to make them see me in a more favorable manner.

[Dinklex3]

It's not abnormal to dislike a girl your son brings home.
My best friend is hispanic, i consider her brother as mine. He brought home his girlfriend who happened to be white. We hated her, lol. (Loud, obnoxious, thought she was using him for money)
My parents and I hate my sister's spouse as well. (Crazy and manipulative)
My other friend is Filipino. Her fiance is white and his parents and grandparents despise her. (Think she's using him for money and isn't and extrovert)
You may think it's no reason, but chances are they may have them.

[MCheetah]

If they hate you just for your race and nothing more, then yes, that is without a doubt being racist. Any race can be racist. You being white doesn't matter. Just make sure that is the reason and that it's not something else, but you're assuming it's race.

[Anonymous]

“Can blacks be racist?”

Goddamn you’re naive. They are some of the most racist people in this country. You think an Asian or a Hispanic person ever called me a “honkey” or a “white boy” and assaulted me, spit on me? Nope. It was exclusively black folk. Exclusively.

You’ve doubtless grown up hearing about how Black people are America’s victims and can do no wrong, but Black people can be just as ugly, racist, and shitty to other people as anyone else.

[Asker]

Yes, I really had no idea. I think it's not heard of too much. Is it likely his parents will one day come around though? It would be good if we can all get along and be a family.

[Opinion Owner]

No, they probably won’t. Most racist people never stop being racist.

[Anonymous]

Well it doesn't necessarily mean they are against you because of your race, they might think you are unsuitable for any number of reasons but anyone can be racist.

Take for example the commonly presented idea that it is only ok for black people to say n**, this is racist because it is claiming a special priviledge for a group of people due to their race, that is literally exactly what racism is.

It is either a priviledge (putting one or more races above another or others) or some sort of restriction (putting one or more races below another or others)

[RolandCuthbert]

So weird. Could it be racism? Of course. But you have to consider culture. It sounds like the parents are actually African or Caribbean immigrants. I don't think you understand. . . an African American woman might receive the same treatment. Because Africans don't do race. They do culture. And I know some Nigerian immigrants with impossibly high standards for their children.

[BlackBeauty90]

ROFL. I am African, Nigerian, Yoruba... we don't treat others like African Americans do. There is a reason why people from Africa who immigrate often prefer to have little to do with African Americans.

And yes you are right it would be a cultural thing for immigrants. African Americans know little to nothing about African culture. As it is for many immigrants; they usually stay among their own for the first few generations for the same reason.

by the way kindly stop lumping Caribbeans with African Americans. Caribbeans typically have more African culture in their pinkies than most African Americans - who predominantly just follow white culture except for bits and pieces of African - even know exists.

And why some of the most welcoming people to others are Caribbean Africans. Particularly if the person has any class or culture of their own because Caribbeans like to learn; whereas many African Americans would much rather prefer to stick their noses in the air and act like they're better.

[RolandCuthbert]

@BlackBeauty90 And that is absolutely not true. I am not saying every African immigrant I have met rejected me. But at least some do. I have met Kenyans, Nigerians, Ghanians, etc. with absolute disdain for African-Americans. But of course, I have met those who accepted me as a brother. It is a mixed bag.

And the funny thing is, you claim you don't have issues with African Americans only to then claim you have issues with African-Americans.

And again you are wrong. Some African-Americans show very little interest in Africa. But I have a nephew from Togo. My niece and her children are very interested in Africa. I have been introduced to customs, cuisine, traditions and music from Togo and I love it.

Why do GaG folks project their issues onto everyone else? If you have issues with African Americans those are your issues. They are not mine nor are they shared with my friends and family.

Also, you seem confused. You did not introduce yourself as Yoruba or Nigerian. You introduced yourself as a "White" woman. Which means "Race" is way more important to you than culture.

That tells me everything I need to know.

It is hilarious how you claim I am stereotyping Caribbeans and Africans when you obviously dislike African-Americans. I have no hatred for any grouping. I was just talking about a difference in culture. You are blabbing thoroughly confused as you can't figure out if you identify with a culture or a race.

[BlackBeauty90]

@RolandCuthbert - white women? ROFL. I don't know why Americans think theirs is a great country when the average IQ is low.

Second, where did I say I have no issues with African Americans. I look at you as noisy people which is ironic when most times you have no culture, history, etc. to be noisy about. Which is HOW many foreigners look at you Americans.

Third, your relatives learning from each other is irrelevant and just proves you're uneducated. The average African American doesn't care to learn anything about African culture.

[888theGreat]

@BlackBeauty90 you are attracted to older white guys?

[Fuentes]

@BlackBeauty90 I just wanna say their is no proof linking black Americans to Africans at all. We been separate and want nothing to do with y'all. The gov threw that "African" name on us. I would NEVER wanna be African.

[BlackBeauty90]

@Fuentes Thank you for being uneducated & ignorant. Many African Americans are just like you... and why when a colleague came from Nigeria he said he often looks on African Americans around where he lives with disgust when he came to the US to better himself and they predominantly sit on their fat asses, doing drugs, drinking booze & leeching off welfare.

[Fuentes]

@BlackBeauty90 that's cool but I'm not African lol so where is the proof that we came from Africa? If your do educated, WHERE is the proof? Cause stating "black people are lazy" is not giving any proof were African. You tell me in the slavery Era what kind of boats could transfer hundreds of thousands of people from Africa and back? The damn near Ninta, Pinta and Santa Maria barely even made it here with Christopher Columbus & during the revolutionary War the Brits gave up because they could not get enough forces over the sea. So knowing all this you mean to tell me they got over 300,000 slaves successfully from Africa to the US without mass boat casualties from sickness and being chained down in the boat the whole time and no boats broke in that era? Era? Lololol yeah OK RIGHT my people just magically came here from Africa with no scratches LOL!

[RolandCuthbert]

@BlackBeauty90 Uhm. . . there is nothing wrong with learning child. I am 50 years old. . . and I will be learning about Africa and cultures contained therein until I die. We have no real focus in America on Africa or African Cultures. I am an African-American. I am not ashamed that I grew up in a racist society that could only focus on post-colonial America and Europe.

So some fake Hotep stepping to me about my ignorance isn't a concern. Ignorance is only a problem when it is aggressive and excessive as it is in your case.

I already know you are fake. Because no real African-centered person would dare push away another seeking knowledge. And here you are rejoicing with insane fruitcake racists and xenophobes in mocking African-Americans. . . when in truth, they consider you no better than a monkey.

Wow. . .

[RolandCuthbert]

@Fuentes I just want to say here is where we have a disagreement. I absolutely believe, I am an African in America. And I bond with those who bond with me.

I don't care about rejection from fake Hoteps. It isn't like they even know their own heritage.

[RolandCuthbert]

@BlackBeauty90 Yawn. . . you and this one other African you know look at African-Americans with disgust.

Haha!!! What are you. . . five years old?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VYk9y3TV_M

[Fuentes]

@RolandCuthbert this chick has no argument but weird insults, why do you think our roots are from Africa? You know before they labeled us Africans they called us colored, the N Word, negroids, negros and now as a race African? So they can slap labels and stickers onto us. Their is literally no proof we're from Africa. That's like looking at a Vietnamese person or Japanese and tell them their Chinese just because they're Asian. Do you think it's that possible they got 300k of us across the sea?

[Fuentes]

https://youtu.be/JE7pv85GnU8 this guy is the one who exposed this a lot of people think he's wrong but he has shown a lot of weird truths

[RolandCuthbert]

@Fuentes I have been in many discussions with African-Americans who believe they are indigenous. That's cool. I don't mock anyone else's beliefs. I have also talked to African-Americans who claim they are the original Jews.

My beliefs on the matter are just different.

[RolandCuthbert]

@Fuentes Again, I just disagree. I am not going to get into a debate. You are allowed to embrace whatever belief system you choose. I am quite certain there is a certain percentage of African-Americans with significant indigenous heritage.

But it isn't like African-American Culture is one based upon skin color, heritage, or even cultural origin.

We are a mixed bag. . . that became a culture over centuries. You may claim a different origin. But the truth is, we have multiple influences and origins for our culture.

[Fuentes]

@RolandCuthbert yes very true its good most people know we all think we derive from somewhere else because where our people truly come from is such a conspiracy and none can be 100% proven which is so weird. I just don't get why us as people have such a real truth hidden & why it's so impossible to tell us.

[BlackBeauty90]

@Fuentes Thank you for proving you are uneducated to such degrees you obviously failed high school. Science has proven humans originated in and around Africa millions of years ago. People of your level of ignorance may have come from a rock mind you

[BlackBeauty90]

@RolandCuthbert you are nothing but a lying American. What when you can't even tell the TRUTH with what you said two posts above.

NEVER good for nothing liar did you say you were trying to learn. Your relatives were trying to learn.

Stupid people can't learn so you might as well not try

[RolandCuthbert]

@BlackBeauty90 haha! Quite pretending that you have an issue with my "Americanness". You have an issue with my "African-Americanness". You will lick the crack of any racist turd here at GaG. You step to me pretending to be proud of being Yoruba or Nigerian. You can flush that bull doo down the toilet with the rest of your nonsense.

I don't have friends from Nigeria. My friends are from Togo, Ghana, Kenya, Senegal, and Eritrea. But am pretty certain most Nigerians don't think like you. Though, I think you are probably as Nigerian as your lover @888thegreat.

[Fuentes]

@BlackBeauty90 you still have not proven me wrong, "Saying everyone is from Africa" is not proving me to me uneducated. I said can you prove my people derived from Africa before slavery? and so far all you have said is "Your uneducated" & "Everyone is from Africa" but that's clearly not the time line I'm talking about and you know it. So either you're illiterate or we're having some sort of language barrier here & if that's the issue. Can you u google translate to understand & comprehend what in saying, give me proof all black slaves came from Africa from the boats built with rotting wood in chains all unscathed, all healthy and ready to work. While the British lost cause they could barely get soldiers across the ocean in one piece and when Christopher Columbus came here the ninta and the pinta and the Santa Maria were falling apart. But somehow the slaves got across that ocean perfectly so MANY times lolol!!! So where is the proof?

[BlackBeauty90]

@Fuentes - well where else do you think slaves came from? Hmm... If you are sooo sooo intelligent. ROFL. by the way, simpleton, blacks weren't the only slaves. Even poor Irish were "slaves" or indentured servants. Try educating yourself. It's not hard. Any loser can do it, even you.

[BlackBeauty90]

@RolandCuthbert - what are you blubbering about like an idiot for? Oh wait I know, I called out your lying ass. And now you wanna to be an even more special sort of stupid than you already were. Man you Americans really, really are stupid and you seriously wonder WHY others look at you like you're a moron.

[888theGreat]

@BlackBeauty90 I will date you black princess

[Fuentes]

@BlackBeauty90 I said the timeline of slavery in the US. Stop pushing the goal post and trying to change the argument. Irish were never enslaved in the US. Koreans were also slaves in 1910 after Japan annexed them & Mexicans got enslaved by Spaniards too way back then and we all know the story of Moses and the Pharaoh. But I am not talking about any of that. I said when the Europeans magically came to Africa, with their magical perfect boat and grabbed over 300k slave and took them across sea and they all just survived and none died of any sickness and were all so ready to work to the bone and birth children to be sold around of a clean bill of health. So tell me because you clearly can't and you know it's questionable. How did the Europeans get my people across that sea in that Era with those crappy built boats? Where did we come from? Explain it.

[RolandCuthbert]

@BlackBeauty90 Haha! Lunatic troll, fake hotep. . . fake Yoruba practitioner. . .

There is as much Nigerian about you. . . as my ass crack.

Haha!!!

[888theGreat]

She is good looking though, unless that pic she uses is someone else

[RolandCuthbert]

@888theGreat Go for it dude!!! She will lick the crack of your racist ass.

[888theGreat]

Quit turning me on

[RolandCuthbert]

@888theGreat I know you are turned on. You can pretend to lynch her while having sex. The racist fantasies are endless.

Master and woman slave who constantly gets raped.

Yee-Haw!!!

[888theGreat]

she doesn't know how good she would have it

[Fuentes]

@RolandCuthbert LOL !!!

[BlackBeauty90]

@RolandCuthbert - ROFL. You said I am a "fake Yoruba practitioner". How can I be a "fake Yoruba" practitioner when Yoruba is a culture not a religion.

How STUPID.

And you try some bullshit claim that your relatives are learning about Togo and you have friends among African immigrants. ROFL. SUUUUUUUREEEE your relative is trying to learn about Togo. And your African neighbors saying "hi" doesn't mean they're your friend.

[BlackBeauty90]

@Fuentes I keep asking you, since you like to pretend you're intelligent, if Europeans didn't do it... how did your ancestors get to the Americas in chains & collars like dogs?

[RolandCuthbert]

@BlackBeauty90 My Yoruba Priestess would like a word.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvVkbhERXjc

[Fuentes]

@BlackBeauty90 we were clearly already In the US already cause their is no way they got us across that ocean by the loads and you know it that's why you present no proof. Anyone with a brain can question just how we got across that ocean. All they did was pick a continent with a mass majority of blacks and said y'all some Africans. Because nobody would believe Haiti or Barbados or Jamaica or the Carribeans or Belize. That's like if we had tons of Vietnamese here and they were lost people but we just say Gee, I don't remember how you got here or will tell you that we found you here so we're just gonna tell you that you came from China, even though they are from Vietnam and their culture is completely different from China. But you want us to accept labels without proof, so until their is proof I am not African.

[RolandCuthbert]

@BlackBeauty90 So your ancestors weren't raped, beaten, enslaved, robbed and murdered?

The things that make you go hmmmm. . .

And it seems after all the destruction and violence they wrought upon your ancestors, you want revenge. . . by licking the crack of their asses.

www.rte.ie/.../

The colonisers were often violent marauders who worked their slaves literally to death. Shootings, hangings, rape, floggings and torture were commonplace. The Royal Niger Company, which was most influential between 1885 and 1914, had in its employ at one point a certain Captain Christian.

He once detained a native woman, stripped her and covered her body in tar. There seemed little appreciation of the effect such appalling treatment had on the natives, writes Siollun in one of his characteristically understated sentences.

[BlackBeauty90]

@RolandCuthbert - ROFL. Yoruba priestess? You mean a worthless fake slut, right? She isn't wearing the proper outfit for one.

< these are authentic Yoruba priestesses not that a stupid American that knows nothing about culture or history would know.

And Yoruba isn't a religion in the sense you would understand, obvious by your constant stupidity.

[RolandCuthbert]

@BlackBeauty90 So you don't know if Yoruba Priestesses are real or not?

haha!!!

Crazy insane bullshit troll!!!

[BlackBeauty90]

@Fuentes If you were already in the Americas why would you be wearing chains & collars? Never mind if boats don't work how did Europeans get to the Americas? With cattle and many other animals that DID NOT exist in Americas pre-colonization. You are a SPECIAL sort of stupid.

[BlackBeauty90]

@RolandCuthbert - god you are a special sort of stupid aren't you. The whore you posted isn't a real Yoruba priestess as I said. What is your IQ, 60?

<< real priestesses. See if your small brain can comprehend what is being said

[RolandCuthbert]

@BlackBeauty90 Again, your ancestors were raped, murdered, robbed and beaten by the Portugal and Britain?

Haha!!!

Not only did they rape and murder your people. They looted and stole precious artifacts. And Britain still has those precious symbols of Benin to this day.

And you get your revenge, by licking the ass crack of the nearest insane fruitcake racist.

Good job!

Britain responded immediately, mounting a so-called punitive expedition to capture Benin. The palace was burned and looted in February 1897, and the oba was exiled. To break the power of the monarchy, the British confiscated all of the royal treasures, giving some to individual officers but taking most to auction in London to pay for the cost of the expedition. The looted objects eventually made their way into museum and private collections around the world. The objects remain contested today, with some Nigerian scholars and museum professionals and the royal court of Benin advocating for their return.

[Fuentes]

@BlackBeauty90 there was cattle the Europeans hunted and stole from the natives lol there were people in America before the Europeans, and you call me uneducated hahaha and everyone who came here. Came here very slowly and many of them died which is why the British lost the war against the settlers because the British could barely send soldiers across the sea lol and they were able to slaughter the natives because they had guns and slowly brought more and more people to the US and the Natives didn't have guns at all. You act as if nobody was on the land lol. They took the land from the natives and I guarantee if we were here they put us in chains and enslaved us. Just like the Natives lost the war and went into reservations. And they decided to enslave us. You must really not know history if you think their was no food on this land and people beforehand hahahahha!!!

[BlackBeauty90]

@Fuentes Cattle never existed in North America pre-Europeans. There has never once been any prehistoric bovine skeleton located in the US. Not to mention aboriginals did not keep cattle but goats and sheep and horses. Cattle are far too fragile for an aboriginal lifestyle to have any value. It was only when aboriginals were forced into reserves that they took to raising cattle.

[Fuentes]

@BlackBeauty90 lol their were cows and ox's before hand the natives hunted them for food, what you think they sat there and starved or just ate plants ate plants? The settlers didn't offer them anything they just came set up shop, liked what they seen and got to killing. Which is why Christopher Columbus is now frowned upon In this country because him and his settlers were the real savages, who massacred. You're very ignorant to the world history but I don't care about this cattle argument you enjoy the fake indoctrinated stories told about people and fictional stories. But you still can't explain where my people came from and how, it's just easy to call us African. It's funny they call us just a continent but never where we're truly from cause they have been throwing labels on us. And one thing you CAN'T explain and mostly everyone else has a hard time telling us our heritage.

Why is it when we do DNA test it comes up as mostly European and 2% African? I know your gonna say well the Europeans tainted your blood line. But if that were true why is our structure still built with a massive amount of black features. Why is it North Ameeican Black's and Africans look nothing alike? If someone is chinese American & a Chinese immigrant comes to the US they look alike or a Chinese American can go to China and blend in? Why is it someone whose a Haitian American can go to Haiti and blend right in. But a Black American can't blend in there same as Barbados, Jamaica or the Carribean or Belize. Same for my brown side lol my dad could go back to Mexico and blend in just fine & a full on Mexican immigrant could come to the US and blend in. But theirs a huge difference with Africans and Black Americans, you can easily tell us apart & their is a reason for that. Because we aren't African-American.

[RolandCuthbert]

@Fuentes She doesn't even know her own history. She obviously doesn't get that she isn't some free-thinking Hotep. She is just another colonized African. I know many who are not. I know many who are fighting for a true accounting of their history. I know many who are fighting to have all the treasures of Africa returned. Pre-Colonial Nigeria had to be beautiful. But it was destroyed by Britain and Portugal.

And she is just a result of that destruction and persecution.

[Fuentes]

@RolandCuthbert she's to busy reading the fictional stories she believes the Brits came tonupgrade her country and civilize her people for the better and ignores the true findings about what they did because she always wants to be in their good graces and pretends she knows it all and is so educated lol very sad of her

[RolandCuthbert]

@Fuentes Haha! That's funny!!!

[BlackBeauty90]

@Fuentes & @RolandCuthbert - I am busy because unlike you two LOSERS I actually have a JOB and have far more important things to do with myself than respond to IDIOTS such as you.

I mean repeatedly you two have proven you are DUMB, that you have NO LIVES by responding to my comments multiple times in a day when I don't respond, etc.

Hell if you are African Americans like you pretend to be... you really do give a GOOD IMPRESSION of being lazy ass uneducated welfare trash.

[RolandCuthbert]

@BlackBeauty90 Haha!!! You have a job.

Dude, I own a company.

If you want to come around and mop my floors and clean up my office, let me know.

:D

[BlackBeauty90]

@RolandCuthbert - you own a company & yet are constantly on this site? Making constantly stupid posts. Suuuureee you own a company. Besides, you wouldn't be able to afford even 30 minutes of my time.

[BlackBeauty90]

@Fuentes You said " Why is it when we do DNA test it comes up as mostly European and 2% African? I know your gonna say well the Europeans tainted your blood line. But if that were true why is our structure still built with a massive amount of black features. " <<< ROLF. You're one of these dumb fuck shit for brains Americans so pathetic that you think 2% or less DNA makes you a minority. Plenty of similar welfare worthless trash says 1% aboriginal makes them native. ... Average African American has 80% or more African DNA

[RolandCuthbert]

@BlackBeauty90 Yes, I am constantly on the site. Dude. . . I have not left home the entire day. I am in bed with my 60 inch television connected to my computer. I have several windows open. I know you are dumb as fuck. So I am going to explain this as I would to a child. I own a technology consulting firm. I do most of the advanced monitoring and maintenance. Like now, at this moment, I am cleaning tape libraries and reassigning tapes for a system called Commvault. I will get to my VEEAM servers next, then after that Zerto. All because my lazy ass can connect via VPN to my offices and access the servers I need. I am in Microsoft Teams. I have chat sessions all the time with VIPs, meetings, phone calls, etc. I have access to a cloud based phone system and Zoom.

After Covid, we are much smaller now. But I have contracts with several companies to provide technology services. We provide helpdesk, desktop, network, infrastructure services. My team does mostly desktop/helpdesk services. I take care of everything else.

But like last week, I was home every single day except Friday.

My team provides onsite support. I do mostly offsite at this point. Maybe that will change. But I do have an office. And you can come and clean it.

@RolandCuthbert - ROFL. Do you seriously expect me to believe all that bullshit? Maybe you fool people with LOW IQ as is very predominant on this site, one merely has to read the majority of posts to question the low intelligence of the poster & the lower intelligence of many responders.

But people who actually have greater IQs than 60 will ONLY LAUGH. As I am doing right now. What when, chump, if you actually were in such a position why would you need me to "clean up your office" if you're not there 90% of the time?

So dimwitted you can't even remember what you said 15 minutes and CONSTANTLY make yourself out to be SO, SO, SO STUPID.

[RolandCuthbert]

@BlackBeauty90 Turd, I don't get a fuck what you believe.

I am offering your "hard-working" self a job. As for verifying my life with you, I offer you the same thing I offer every fruitcake racist here. We can meet in person or online. You can see my office. It is definitely dirty. You can see the storage systems, the tape libraries, switches, routers, firewalls, fiber channel equipment, etc.

You know none of these terms because you are dumb as fuck

Haha!!!

[Fuentes]

@BlackBeauty90 you still can't explain anything at all or prove me to be African just you boasting about your imaginary dream job when you most likely work a min wage job with no free time. That's tough. And this self projection about welfare and being lazy sounds like you speak out of experience cause you keep going in and on about that. When nobody mentioned anything about who works what lol that's a sad life. It's not my fault you can't prove me wrong so you can trying to move the argument 100 different areas because you know your wrong and clearly have a accountability issue hahaha you can never prove I'm African at all HAHA that must suck!

[Birdlegs]

This whole thread was wild and I forgot my comments that I wanted to say but @Fuentes yes the black people in America are here because of slavery. Thousands of them died en route. The ships were huge and there were tons of them. By that time in history sea travel was pretty refined for the time. Black people and Africans look different because they are full African and we are mixed with white. Personally I’m like 30% Nigerian and 7% French I don't know about the rest tho. But anyways yea we all came from Africa

[Fuentes]

@Birdlegs Huge ships? In that Era maaaan ships were not the size of titanic back then HAHAHA it was all wood, what you mean their is no way anyone can prove that. Again during the revolutionary War the British lost die to not being able to sends tons of soldiers over it was way to hard, so how did they get Africans?

[Birdlegs]

@Fuentes nah them ships were pretty freaking big think of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies they had ships like those in the movie. And they lost the revolution due to far more reasons than that, the British were fighting in more than just America and were stretched thin, economic concerns, Spanish intervention, internal political conflicts, British apathy towards the war, etc….

[Fuentes]

@Birdlegs lol no the British empire was huge they could not send soldiers due to the fact it was way to hard to get over to the Atlantis it took a whole decade to populate the US lol it took them along time that's why the natives never saw them coming and that's a fictional movie lol show me one ship that you can prove was that big? Lol the ninta the pinta & the Santa Maria can't even be rebuilt cause them ships were so flimsy in fact when they were they sank and are lost at sea lol

[Birdlegs]

@Fuentes bro come on now you can look these things up😭 huge armies typically are defeated because they fight multiple armies at the same time and get stretched too thin. If the entire British military fought against the Americans we would’ve lost instantly. The movie was based off a real era in history AND you can look up what ships from the era looked like AND I just looked up “ships that brought the slaves” and found multiple pictures of massive ships that carried slaves

[Fuentes]

@Birdlegs bruh lol u hella trippin I just did the search straight up and YOU can't tell me that thousands of blacks made it unscathed in those tight conditions in then small asss "Ships" across the Atlantic Ocean. Those are tiny and anyone can make a picture and make a fictional ship come true, how could anyone truly know the true size of a ship for a modern day movie taking place in a old era? Era? They could easily have made it look bigger for the movie so people will watch. Their is no way on gods green earth, that over 300k "Africans" survived those ships hahaha!

Dude you act like the revolutionary War was all 50 states it was barely even any states even made at the time it was just a small part of the east coast cause after they all went into to slaughter the rest of the natives to claim the lands and make their westward expansion. But the settlers who revolted didn't have that many people and the British had tons the issue WAS being in Europe they had could easily maneuver troops because it's connected to the continent of Africa and Asia so of course they were able to ran sack though those countries and ruin them. The issue was when it came to North America it was WAY to far and the more soldiers they sent just got slaughtered cause they had the hardest time sending men and supplies back and fourth which is why they lost. They spent way to much money and manpower doing it. Look it up. That's one if the biggest reasons they gave up. And back in that day thats what was war was Infantry & logistics. But due to the OLD ERA they did not have the capabilites to do that. No planes and no well made ships to carry that type of fire power over. Impossible bro and you know it just think it about it.

[Birdlegs]

@Fuentes nah man hella Africans died en route for sure it wasn’t a very good ride that’s just the amount that survived the voyage. But yea people have drawings of ships and I’m sure there are remains of ships or even ships that damn near survived until now to know how big they really were. And yes exactly they didn’t have the manpower to fight the Americans due to the conflicts the British were already facing plus the other things I mentioned

[Fuentes]

@Birdlegs yes but the manpower they did not have was making long rides across the EU to NA through the Atlantic so tell me bro how they brought us over back and fourth with dedication if they could not even win a war doing that? Those ships weren't built like that at all. Think about this too if they knew we were all really from Africa why did they label us so many different stuff, now yes I know they were racist as fuck back then but think about it we were labeled Niggas/N-Words, Coloreds, Negroids/Negress, Nebraska, Black, African Americans. Why is that the last label to give us? Cause it's the easiest continent to choose cause it's will Black people.

You can't match us with Jamaicans, and the rest of the carribeans or even with some others races they just said the only explanation is African and left it at that but we still look so much different & yes ofc the Europeans raped but come in not all of us come from a bloodline of rape or else we would have been damn near white & most blacks in this country are not high yellow or light skin unless they're mixed like me, so why is that cause it's no comparison to a African. Why the heck could my dad go to Mexico and blend in? Or a Chinese person can blend in in China from the US that's peel it back further natives were also raped & pillaged how come none of them look different? How about Spaniards when they raped Central Americans nine of them turned white, now are their white mexicans yes but not All & they defenitley don't look different at all.

[Birdlegs]

I know I’m super late here and these comments are awful but yea anyone can be racist and on top of that there’s a stigma in the black community against dating white girls. If they can’t get over the fact that y’all are together and they stay hateful to you then fuck em. It’s 2022 you can be with whoever you want

[FunkyMonkee]

Of course, blacks can be racist!! I heard the singer from Fishbone once say, on camera, "I HATE white people!"
In your case, their reason for hating you will tell you if it's racism or just some other shit THEY need to deal with. Get him to ask them why they hate you.

[Asker]

Before the introduction they had never met me before. When he introduced me to them and they hated me right away. During the meeting the mother said she thought I would be someone else of his kind and the father locked himself in his room, not wanting to speak to me anymore.

He moved out of his parents' house for their hatred. He overheard them once referring to me as ''typical white trash'' and he had enough.

[FunkyMonkee]

"White trash" doesn't exactly have anything to do with racism.

[Msputiton]

Did they clearly make any racist statements?

If so yes this is racism.

If they didn't it could just be they just don't like you, maybe you said or did something unknowingly that upset them.

Maybe things your boyfriend said before meeting you to them put a bad taste in their mouths.

[Anonymous]

Yes, of course. I as a white man have experienced hate from people of other races just because I am white, and that included physical violence on two occasions. But racism against whites is excused or not even acknowledged, which only serves to fan the flames of racism. It needs to be condemned for what it is... harmful racism just like any other.

[nawtee_me]

you enslaved their great grandparents, that is what you did wrong... White people are blamed for slavery even though they themselves have never owned slaves. What they don't admit is that black people sold them into slavery to the white people.

[Asker]

So why should I be blamed for something I didn't do? I'm not them. Neither my parents nor me were even born at the time.

[nawtee_me]

I understand completely and my thought exactly... But to a lot of black people white are to blame always... Racisms come from all sorts of places and from every race. Not all of them but from some and usually the older ones who grew up in a different time. It is not your fault but you have to deal with it if you are going to be with him.

[Asker]

And right now I'm receiving hateful comments here. I didn't think this would create a big commotion. I'm very disappointed to be honest.

[nawtee_me]

racism abounds everywhere... I feel for you. What does your boyfriend have to say about it?

you can message me if you want to take this conversation elsewhere

[Stoner710]

I’m a white dude I don’t have kids at this mind but I don’t care who they marry or who they fall in love with is there life not mine.

[TheMajesticKing777]

Of course blacks can be racist, you should try breaking the ice somehow

[Asker]

I hope they come around eventually. It's sad they hate me meanwhile my parents have treated him nice and respectful from the beginning. All they care is that he's a good person that makes me happy.
I really wish we could all be a family one day.

[TheMajesticKing777]

Tell your boyfriend tho, because I doubt he would just sit down and take this, I'm sure he will try speaking to his family which can be a start at trying to fix the problem

[Fuentes]

I hate racist parents and he knew they were and brought you there anyway. So dump him and Find a dude of color without racist parents. Parents can ruin a relationship and you don't wanna bring a child into that toxticity

[Anonymous]

That depends on whether they hate you because of your skin color, or just simply do not like you regardless of skin color.

[Asker]

They hated me the very moment they saw me.

[Opinion Owner]

Then it could be for any reason, not necessarily anything to do with skin color. I've met people who gave bad first impressions...

[Asker]

I hope with time they will come around.

[jammcm]

Aww... the shoe is on the other foot. Yes... with a little study of history you can see racism in all societies for all reasons..

[MountAverage]

Well, you didn't tell us their reasons for treating you like that, so how would we know if it's racism?
