The other side of Ferguson: Missouri Burning

 
 
 
I'm about to go to the gym. When I get back you have my full attention. I hate dueling anecdotes and I hate any kind of argument that boils around my suffering is worse that your suffering. If you think it will help anything I'll answer your questions. I really don't want to debate, but if you think we can learn something from each other. Ok.

Six questions, one answer

BTW, "rich" kids seldom ride the bus.

There was a significant lack of parking at my HS. Plenty of "rich" kids rode the bus.

1) Did you take it seriously? Yes. It’s probably the worst insult a white person can give to another white person.

2 Did you think every poor white person was a nigger and had to fight everyday to prove to everyone that while niggers existed, you were not one of them? I knew that poor people had to struggle every day. I knew that black people with money has it easier – maybe not as easy as a white person with money.

I had a lot of racial experience before HS. My family lived in the actual city of Detroit. My father moved there to try and work on racial issues. Our neighbor on the right was a white family from hell. The neighbor on the left was an upstanding black family. I couldn’t ride my bicycle around the block or I would get beaten up by the back kids. High School was hell. I struggled every day. The only escape I found was running cross-country. I had a natural gift of a high VO2 MAX. I had to quit sports to get a job. My two closest friends were 1) a white kid who’s parents had money but never told him about it and 2) a kid whose family escaped the hell pit of Palestine. Everything seemed bleak and I didn’t see them getting better. Then I discovered alcohol and drugs... The only thing that kept me from becoming a worthless degenerate hoodlum is my father instilling in me the idea that I could do better and have a better life.

I basically came to the conclusion that it would suck to be black but having money is a greater advantage.

3 How many times a day do you doubt yourself because of a fear that those around you don't see you but only a nigger? If I replace the word nigger with worthless, then most every day.

4) IOW, how real was the word nigger to you, how real was your fear and dread of the word? As I sad, real enough.

5) How many doors did nigger close to you? None. But, I’ve had plenty of doors closed for other reasons. I’ve had doors opened, but not because I had a magic white card.

6) What about the word nigger could not your whiteness overcome? Nothing. But given the resources is there anything a black person couldn’t overcome? I know you are going to say being black, but you can use your blackness and be proud of it for all the struggles that you have overcome.

More immediate to my concern is a group of Indians in Dallas. Everyone I talked to told me not to do business with Indians. I’ve never been told not to do business with black people. I made the point that we should give them a shot. Now I’m eating shit. The first problem is they quit making payments and there excuse was they couldn’t find a structural engineer that would back our product. I know this was bullshit so I randomly called a structural engineer in Dallas. He was, “I know those guys, they all live on the same street and own hotels.” Me, “Yep, that’s them”. To make a long story short we are now concerned that our IP is being reverse engineered in India.

I’ll take a stand against flat out racism, but I’m not getting behind “white privilege”.

Yeah, I know why it is. I'm not fucking stupid.

Your answers to the questions seem inconsistent with that response. If being called a nigger is the worst thing a white person can be called, can you imagine how much worse it seems to a black person to be called a nigger?

And gee, here I was thinking that racist was the worse thing you could call a white person.

I mean, I don't hear a lot of white folk bemoaning being called a nigger, but call one a racist, or call an action of a white person racist, or simply say that racism had something to do with a specific event, and all hell breaks loose
 
Not quite following Noble Savage, but the worst thing a white person can be called is a racist.
