Da Brakes Posted September 7, 2005 Report Share Posted September 7, 2005 My perosnal opinion is that rasicm is still very rife in todays culture, its just a lot more subdued as people don't want to be seen as racist. A lot of girls I've dated within the past 3-4 years couldn't have told their parents for the pure fact that I am Black! That is just beyond me! making a judgement of me before you've even said 'Hello'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others. 2. Discrimination or prejudice based on race. Sounds like being racist to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cozmo D Posted September 7, 2005 Report Share Posted September 7, 2005 is Common a rastafarian himself? why is he pointing this out anyway? :shrug: ← I don't know if he is, but maybe he's pointing it out because it's true? I never understood why people would take something from a religion and simply adapt it because they think it looks cool. Suppose people started wearing yarmulkes for the fun of it, or priest's collars or nun's headdresses. Hey, how about we all run out and get the latest in Klan robes. :shake: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cozmo D Posted September 7, 2005 Report Share Posted September 7, 2005 I agree with Rising Son! :word: ← I have to agree. I don't know if Common is racist, but I think that his ideology is totally off. ← Perhaps it's not his ideology, but he just respects the culture of others. Do you use the phrase "peace"? Did you know that phrase originated with Black Muslims and 5 Percenters? When I was a teen here in Brooklyn, if you used that phrase but couldn't break down your mathematics (5 Percent Ideology) you were liable to catch an ass whoopin.
