Black Children Kicked Out Of Private Pool

What happened to that post-racial society they say that we live in? Are you ready for the reason why they kicked the kids out? They kicked them out because they were afraid that the black kids would "change the complexion of the place."

No, really. Here are some other details:

"When the minority children got in the pool all of the Caucasian children immediately exited the pool," Horace Gibson, parent of a day camp child, wrote in an email. "The pool attendants came and told the black children that they did not allow minorities in the club and needed the children to leave immediately."

Why The N-Word Should Be Eliminated

70% Of Black Women Are Single

Why?

Is it because there are more black men in prison than in college? It is because black women are "too picky," as some claim? Is it because many black women refuse to broaden their horizons and date outside of the race?

I think that a certain blogger made a good point when she asked, how many black women would've dated President Obama when he was just a "broke, big-eared community organizer?" Either way, this statistic is alarming.

Spike Lee's Beef With Tyler Perry

Spike Lee, in an interview with Ed Gordon, called out Tyler Perry for what he feels is negative imagery of black people. He said:

"Each artist should be allowed to pursue their artistic endeavors, but I still think there is a lot of stuff out today that is coonery and buffoonery. I know it’s making a lot of money and breaking records, but we can do better. … I am a huge basketball fan, and when I watch the games on TNT, I see these two ads for these two shows (Tyler Perry’s “Meet the Browns” and “House of Payne”), and I am scratching my head. We got a black president, and we going back to Mantan Moreland and Sleep ‘n’ Eat?"

Does Spike have a legitimate concern over the imagery that Tyler "Madea" Perry displays in his movies and TV shows? Or, are Tyler's critics taking things way too seriously?

Prom Night: Separate But Equal Style

The ghosts of segregation live on. So much for living in a post-racial society.

Racially segregated proms have been held in Montgomery County — where about two-thirds of the population is white — almost every year since its schools were integrated in 1971. Such proms are, by many accounts, longstanding traditions in towns across the rural South, though in recent years a number of communities have successfully pushed for change. When the actor Morgan Freeman offered to pay for last year’s first-of-its-kind integrated prom at Charleston High School in Mississippi, his home state, the idea was quickly embraced by students — and rejected by a group of white parents, who held a competing “private” prom. (The effort is the subject of a documentary, “Prom Night in Mississippi,” which will be shown on HBO in July.) The senior proms held by Montgomery County High School students — referred to by many students as “the black-folks prom” and “the white-folks prom” — are organized outside school through student committees with the help of parents. All students are welcome at the black prom, though generally few if any white students show up. The white prom, students say, remains governed by a largely unspoken set of rules about who may come. Black members of the student council say they have asked school administrators about holding a single school-sponsored prom, but that, along with efforts to collaborate with white prom planners, has failed. According to Timothy Wiggs, the outgoing student council president and one of 21 black students graduating this year, “We just never get anywhere with it.” Principal Luke Smith says the school has no plans to sponsor a prom, noting that when it did so in 1995, attendance was poor. source

I Weep For My People

Here we have a father at the age of 29 already with 21 kids...No, it's not a typo, he has 21 children! They range in ages 11 years old to newborn, with at least 11 different mothers. What else can you say when you see sh*t like this? Contraceptives were invented for a reason people. We can definitely slam this fool for being so irresponsible, but what about the women? Don't they play a big part in this foolishness? They were willing to lay down and have unprotected sex with this fool knowing that he was making babies all over town. We see Bristol Palin, being puppeteered by her bible-thumping mother, preaching abstinence. But people have to start being realistic and start seriously teaching and emphasizing primarily to young people about the necessity of protection. Not just as a birth control method but also as a protection from diseases. I'm worried about those 21 kids psychologically. SMDH
