In the wake of Martin Luther King day a few days ago, I thought it would be appropriate to write a blog about racism. In today's world, racism continues to reflect a heated topic throughout all various cultures, some debates ending up on Jerry Springer, and some ending in pure tragedy. However, folks in this generation like to hide a certain type of racism that seems to be common and considered alright. Many people today probably do so for fear of offense to other races, but we here at The Uncompromisable Truth do not surrender to people's emotions, our motto is to deliver the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. So let us ease ourselves into such a debate, no, I am not a racist, and if anyone is offended by my writing, then this buds for you!

Actor and comedian George Lopez is somewhat notorious for slandering white American people simply because they are white Americans. One of his many flat comedic acts include a serious proposition that Mexican people are responsible for the growth and prosperity of the current United States. Now, correct me if I am wrong, but I happen to disagree with these statements. Here's a cold hard fact for Mr. Lopez, if the Mexicans were the expertise behind the building of this country, then why not build Mexico just as well. Why does Mexico remain in shambles like any other third world nation? Not only are these statements false and demeaning to the founding fathers of our nation, who fought tooth and nail in lined battles so Mr. Lopez could have a low rated comedy special on television, but are they not also racist? Should not George Lopez and others who continue to speak this trash get canceled, like when temporarily did so to Dog the Bounty Hunter? Can anyone tell me what the difference is?

Another point to this debate is why every month on our modern calendar promotes a specific race such as black history month. Now, to be fair, imagine if somebody made a point to make a white history month, they would be marked a racist and burned at the stake. Why is okay to make movies such as "White Men Can't Jump" but if somebody made a movie like "Black Men Can't Read" there would be a protest of screaming mindless zealots. The facts are there are many white men who can jump and many black men who can read, but in our lame society today, somebody wants to pin point a label on a person no matter what race they are.

The Uncompromisable Truth is that in this generation you have to be a real freak'in nerd to be a racist, White, Black, Hispanic etc. It is not "cute" or "hilarious" for other races to insult and degrade white people. If your ancestors were whipped 200 years ago while humming the tune to "Old Man River" as they toiled like a raisin in the sun, what does that have to do with you today? I do not see any slaves walking around, sweating profusely over a hot stove for the Misses. I do not see anyone sadly walking the trail of tears, being tossed out of their lands for mirrors and beads. What needs to happen in the world today is for everyone to just get over it! In this generation, "Fish Don't Fry in the Kitchen, and Beans Don't Burn on the Grill." All men are created equal, some are hard workers, some are lazy, some are clean, others are filthy slobs. The fact of the matter is that its not only white people who are racist, but the many other races that slander others are just as racist as them Southern Tennessee Klaners! Instead of protesting for nationality pride or have a march in Washington, why not get a stamp collection or something interesting to keep you occupied, like work with blind kids. And that, my friends, is The Uncompromisable Truth.
Great post! It is so true too, I often have these thoughts but keep them to myself because too often before have I been accused of "racist" ideas and beliefs. This couldn't be farther from the truth. Glad you found my blog because I am enjoying yours :)
ReplyDeleteHa wow, I just read your post about online dating (I wrote a post regarding online dating last week as well) and I must say your take on it is very different than what the general consensus seemed to be over on my site... Very interesting look at it though, something I will definitely keep in mind. Perhaps I am more self centered then I thought, hmmm.
ReplyDeleteahh its refreshing to read what so many people think and don't say out loud. I'm going to apply for financial aid with the United Negro College Fund and when they reject me I'll kindly ask where the United Cracker College fund is.
ReplyDeleteIn some ways I agree with you that we have taken racism to the other end of the spectrum and have become so sensitive that we not say anything "racist" about another group of people that we feel we cannot say anything when they say racist things about white people. However, people cannot just "get over" things like slavery and the Trail of Tears, even if it happened many years ago and is no longer currently happening. Those issues need to be in the forefront of our minds every once in a while to remind us what we need to never let happen again. People still feel they've been treated unfairly, even if it wasn't them personally but their ancestors who were directly involved. Those feelings don't just go away. While you raise a valid question, there still needs to be sensitivity to what has happened in the past, and respect--that is key in this whole issue--needs to be something we all have for others of different backgrounds.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, thanks for comment on my blog.
You stand pretty tall behind the type, when it comes to writing trash that no one cares about or thinks twice, I personally would like to know how you stand on Child abusers and sex offenders. Cj colette-abused.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteGeorge Lopez is very funny.
ReplyDeleteDog the Bounty Hunter, is a white trash moron, who somehow parlayed his fifteen minutes of fame, into an hour and a half. He's living proof that there are too many television channels, and not enough to talent to go around.
Anybody remember how the "Dog" became famous?
Yup, he's the guy who went to Mexico and brought Scott Peterson back to California to stand trial for the murder of his wife and unborn child...
I agree wholeheartedly. Whites are expected to hide any racists beliefs. White people who admit that they are racists are looked at by others as bad people even if they also feel the same way. However, other racists do not feel the need to hide their feelings toward whites. The fact of the matter is that racism exists in every race. You are right about the mexicans. I was not raised racist. In fact, it was quite the opposite. However, since moving out of my parent's house, I have changed my beliefs based on things that I have witnessed or experiences I have had. Recently, I was in IHOP eating breakfast after having a few drinks. It was packed in there. The crowd consisted of about half white and half black. All of a sudden a black lady pulled out this whistle and blowed on it so loud it hurt my ears. My irritation must have showed on my face because the black man sitting next to her asked me if I had a problem. I don't know what came over me, but I told him "As a matter of fact I do". That started a whole argument. The funny thing is that all the white people in there were cheering and saying "way to go". If so many people feel the same as I do, why don't they voice their opinion? Black people have no problem letting us know how they feel about whites. I am so sick of hearing the whole slavery excuse. Yes, I believe it is wrong to enslave others. However, the people that are using that excuse have never experienced anything remotely close to that. It is time to quit living off of the suffering of others. They use that as an excuse to live off of others and act the way they do. They are literally draining our economy. If they do not like hearing the truth, maybe they should change it.
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to point out that in the movie "White Men Can't Jump", Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson prove the title to be a prejudiced misconception by hustling basketball players who think Harrelson can't jump. The title is ironic.
ReplyDeleteOnce again, great post. I think it has now gone the waaaaay the other way. Blacks are the racists. Just imagine if there was a 'white only college' or a white only tv show, or a white only magazine. The list is endless as to what the blacks can get away with in their racist attitude toward whites. They now have much more "Rights" then whites do. It's insane!
