Does anybody hate their own race?

^ I'm not sure I'd let anyone know if I knew that they were talking about me. It would be embarrassing for me, too. Unless it made me really mad.

I'd like to learn more about Chinese culture. I think I'll start by watching some movies and tv shows from China and Taiwan.

I'm a African American, and I kinda do and I kinda don't.

The reason why I'm upset at/by my race is that they commit homicides, robberies, and protest in a unpeaceful manner. (No offense)

The reason I love my race is that we stood up for rights in the civil rights movement, and didn't back down.

This seems to require a "we," an identification with a group. I have troubles with this. I never feel I "belong" to any group, or identify myself with them. We are all just individuals.
Thus I didn't pick up on it immediately when someone behaved in a racist way toward me recently - because it just didn't occur to me that they were grouping me in with a race and the stereotypes of that race based on my accent and the colour of my skin. I'm also slow to associate that grouping when it comes to others, and stereotype them by race. People seem to be just people until I'm told otherwise.

^^^ Ok...I get it now. I missed that somewhere in this thread. And, yes, that was wrong. Good for you to stick up for yourself too. If it makes you feel any better I get that too here in America. Usually it's along the vein of "You're too smart, you know better than that." Never quite that blunt though when dealing with someone else of a different race though......And, I've lived a few places where I'm the minority.
I really don't know what would happen if I got confronted that blatantly though. I fear I would get confrontational about it as it would smack me in the face to hear that crap from somebody.

Just in case you're that bored you're interested in the whole stupid scenario.
As to this thread, though - It actually didn't occur to me at all at the time, because I didn't realise he was stereotyping me based on the groups he perceived me to be part of - white, "native" born, and I assume from his wording, middle class (though that's laughable). It was a few hours later that I thought "wait a sec!"
At the time I just perceived him being useless, ignorant, arrogant and rude, but not racist.

Yes i hate my own 100 percent and i dont i'm black and there is a good reason for it and i even hate my own mom because shes a fat black gorilla who never stops listening to my aunt and doesn't stop suppoting president obama and who hates white people if they are hippies i don't like whites who act like them(wiggers) who say the n-word they dont seem to understand how to behave in society when it comes to being public or how to treat people fairly i also hate it when they threaten to kill or beat up poor incident people they hardly know for no reason if it's one glare at them and i also hate it when black guys say mean things to you and threaten to kill you just because you're a kind hearted person and never apologize for it like shut up your ugly as s.h.i.t. mock any word you say yell at you your hair is dirty or you sound too white to be black and you dont even look like it r n b and hip hop music is a huge reason why i hate my race and my thick coarse hair my light brown skin my big breasts i wish i reddish blonde hair and green eyes and i also wish i was naturally skinny and very wavy hair and had a flat butt so some more white guys can hit on me without calling me ugly or obese i also like asian guys and they never hated on me sometimes i wish i was like chinese or korean i love the almond shaped brown eyes and silky black hair they have and also the traditional clothing they wear as well having black skin is a curse i look very brown like a Mexican and get mistaken for one all the time it's super annoying and it also a curse i think white skin and hair texture is healthy easier to comb it out after showering and when its bed time it's all her fault for giving birth to me i wish i was never African-American period and i can't stand eminem he's a god damn joke

Pretty much not happy with the human race.....

Does that count?

I hope that other post was a troll post, and not a real person hating on herself and her race.
