I agree with @denilson200 here. I cannot imagine how blacks suffered over 400 years of being kidnapped, separated from their wives and children, sold like pieces of meat, forced to work for free, whipped, hanged, raped, murdered, stripped of their largely Muslim identity (they were all from West Africa which is largely Muslim---Guinea, Mali, Cote d'Ivoire, Yamassoukrou, Ouagadougou, Senegal, Gambia, etc.... all largely Muslim peoples), and forced to become the Southern Black Baptist and to accept Jesus by white slave owners, forbidden to learn to read or write UNDER PENALTY OF DEATH.

I cannot imagine the lasting effects of this shit. 400 years is a long fucking time to live under these inhuman, destructive conditions. It does not just conveniently "go away" just because Kennedy/Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act in 1964. That was only 1 generation ago, and people thins blacks should just "get over it" in a blink of an eye.

My people came to America in 1915 and 1923. My grandfather told me how mean the Irish and other white shop owners were to us Italian peasants who just arrived. He couldnt get a job for years, whites would openly call him "grease ball" and "monkey" and "wop/dego/goombah" etc.... He told me one time how he went for a ditch-digging job in 1933 in New York, and the german-American guy in charge of hiring said to him "We'll put you kinky-haired greaseball to work with your nigger cousins digging ditches". He said the only jobs he and my great uncle could ever find were alongside black Americans digging ditches for huge pipelines. He said there would be 150 diggers on a team, and it would be 120 Backs and 30 Italians side by side. Blacks and Italians were very close back then

MY POINT ABOUT THAT: THE TINY LITTLE BIT THAT MY PEOPLE SUFFERED WHEN THEY GOT HERE IN 1923 WAS BAD ENOUGH, DISGUSTING ENOUGH, ETC... SO THEREFORE NOBODY CAN IMAGINE what black people were subjected to for 400 years. We can read about it, we can watch Alex Hailey's "Roots" all we like, but it can never tell us firsthand just what kind of personal/spiritual/permanent damage that shit did to them as a whole, and we can never put a timeline on it and say "OK, its 2015 so just forget it all and get over it."

Should the Jews "get over" what the Nazis did to them? I think not. "Get over" a girl, OK, or "get over" a job-loss, OK, but GET OVER A GENOCIDE I THINK FUCKING NOT.

I THINK NOT.

and Denilson you go ahead and keep thinking Im (or people whio you dont even know) racist. I dont need to prove anything to you bro.

If you knew me, you would feel ashamed to call me that. But you dont know me.
