About Me
"In my opinion"
Concerning to whom the fault of oppression belongs;
"We are not all equally guilty but we are all equally responsible" - Rabbi Abraham Hescel
Concerning blaming others for the problem;
"...And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?... - Matthew: 7 1-5
Concerning how to fix the problems concerning oppression;
"Someone once said that the word 'motivation' should never be used in the singular. Some combination of motives always exist and it's impossible for anyone to qualify the proportion of each that is involved in any given act" - Warren Buffet (in an interview in the USA Today)
Please take into account that the views expressed on my blog are prefaced with; in my opinion, in my experience or even (sometimes) random observations and/or thoughts.

Welcome
Although I'm pretty tired of the "Race is King" mantra usually put forward by past and current polemics, race-relations (and the improvement of such) is always a good topic of civilized conversation. I've been called "Uncle-Tom" more times than I've been called "N-----". When I volunteer at the local Habitat for Humanity, I'm often the only black working who's not trying to get a house. When I volunteer at the local shelter, I'm usually the only black on the giving end. Something is wrong or deficient with Black-culture (as it is practiced today). Don't say that I don't know the ghetto, I'm originally from the ghetto. My ghetto-pass wasn't pulled, like my middle school I.D., it expired. I graduated. Now, I say middle school because too many blacks haven't graduated from high school. (Detroit, anybody ?) Please feel free to bring up any topic but please refrain from misusing epithets and downgrading others. Thank you, UBJ

I think most white folks don't see it. Only when you give a detailed list will they say Wow I didn't know that. Then they'll say Welp back to enjoying that privilege. Change is rare in those who don't see a positive reason for change. Equality isn't the desire of those who are on top!
FreeMan, my man. What's been up?
Actually someone on Rippa's site used this graphic in his post on privilege. Excepting the 'White' square, I enjoy a lot of privilege - to the point of being called an 'Uppity Nigga'' by both Blacks and whites. I think a 'Can Whoop Your Ass' square also helps in many cases (In others it can cause so much fear that an overly aggressive action may be taken by the opposing group: as in the case with some police misconduct.).
Honestly.... after a while I get sick of Black social media - too many self-identify with being the victim. Personally, I've always liked DeeVee's idea of not really experiencing much real racism - mostly it's just 'attempted racism'.
It seems that most of the erudite and effete blogging brotha's clutch their pearls at even the slightest 'micro-aggression'. The only sissies worried about micro-aggressions are micro-nigga's.
A couple of weeks ago a couple of people tried hemming me up at a hardware store over a parking space. I just walked inside, bought my stuff and came out to a couple trucks full of Billy-Bobs. I got in my car, drove half a block to a white biker shop in to await their arrival. When the Billy-Bobs got out of their cars the White bikers came out to see what was up. The Billy-Bobs felt overly confident until my homeboy from the group came out to talk to me about hosting their bike night at our club. No popo were called but the Billy-Bobs understood that sometimes relationships and connections trump race. (I've hosted benefits for injured bikers, both Black and white, at the club for years so in most situations I'm good with most of them.)
