Elvis was such a cunt. But then again, most white people have racism inside of them and if you never catch them out, they'll deny it till kingdom come http://arts.guardian.co.uk/elvis/story/0,,774842,00.htmlElvis was a dog glorified because of his skin colour by the media which is adapted to do such things |

how easy it is to use one statement to judge a man's life time
Presley was no racist, what about his song G.H.E.T.T.O about the struggle of the blacks, and underprivelage in the slums of Chicago.
Well he had Black back-up singers - they dont clean his shoe do they.

What a load of bollocks. So singing about the struggle of blacks make him no racist? That he had black back up singers meant he was no racist? Wake up man |

And if he was??? So what? Thats the States,
People need to take that understanding and use it for something positive. Stop worrying about what someone did and maybe look to actually building an path to controlling an industry in which Black/African/Colored/Negros produce a great deal of the material that is consumed by the masses.

Yeah, you RIGHT MAN!!!! Just like SHELL, and the rest of them are STEALING Nigerians Oil and NOTHING is going back to the people. Maybe Nigeria should just SHUT THE F_UCK up and give up the oil without protest.  You just keep allowing your heritage stolen and keep doing nothing like you usually do. k |

 [sub][/sub]Well, in the words of Chuck-D. "Elvis was a Hero to most, but he's never been nothing but a strait up racist. That sucka was female orifice and lame." and the following words of Flava-Flave: "Yeeeah Booooy, him and John Wayne!!" Damn, most of you are to young to know anything about that one. That's that old school hip-hop coming at yah. how easy it is to use one statement to judge a man's life time Presley was no racist, what about his song G.H.E.T.T.O about the struggle of the blacks, and underprivelage in the slums of Chicago. Well he had Black back-up singers - they don't clean his shoe do they. [s][/s]hello elvis was a damm racist ok all there words u wrote here r just not true ok , elvis was one ok

I heard he wasn't racist at first but was turned racist by some guy. Question: how do people turn another person into a racist? Eh, Elvis was mixed and has credited the black musicians he was influenced by, Elvis wasn't mixed. Who told you that? |

Eh, Elvis was mixed and has credited the black musicians he was influenced by, Re the highlight, . . - You are funny Elvis stole his songs from black people and got away with it. i was told that back in the days white folks didn't want their kids to be influenced by blacks through music or anything so they hired whites to sing the songs that were origally sung by blacks. Also, blacks sold their songs and did not copyright their songs. That was their biggiest mistake. Peace |

http://www.baconsrebellion.com/Issues05/01-31/Curious.htmIt doesn't. Many whites were brought up by black slaves. Elvis was a racist who stole black music, may dogs exhume his bones. Elvis came from a poor background plus he wasn't old enough to be brought up by black people, people should do their research because Elvis was friends with Jackie Wilson one of Michael Jackson's biggest influences.  Do you guys even know what a racist is? The guy was talented, let him rest. |

Yeah Elvis was a gr8 talent but then i heard he viewed blacks as animals.Yea he might have had a few blk friends but tht wouldnt stop him frm being a prejudice.Remember tht america"s first president George Washington viewed the black race as second class citiziens and felt tht blk ppl were better for nothing other than cutters of wood.His best friend was his blk slave but then he was much prejudiced against blk ppl.Its an irony u might say. |
