Cool,

So from what we've discussed:

White = Beige

Beige = Brown

Brown = Black

Substituting Black for Brown and White for Beige we get:

(Beige) White = Black (Brown).

That's racial algebra!

Delf747,

In your dreams.

Well, in every whiteman's dreams.

LOL

Remember what the whiteman found when he ran away from the destruction he had caused in his own lands:

"The indigenous peoples of the Congo," he wrote, "are all black in color, some more so, some less so. Many are to be seen who are the color of chestnut and some tend to be more olive-colored. But the one who is of the deepest black in color is held by them to be the most beautiful. Some are born somewhat light-skinned, but as they grow older they become darker and darker. This occurs because their mothers make use of the artifice of an ointment,  with which they anoint their infants, exposing them once they have been anointed, to the rays of the sun, then leaving them there for long periods, and repeating this action over and over,  There are some children who although their parents are black, are born white skinned and although they anoint them and use all manners of artifice they can never be transformed into blackskinned people. And these are regarded by the Congolese as monsters. They have the same features and the same tightly curled hair as the black Congolese, but their skin is white and they are short-sighted, As a result, children in those areas, where a white has never been seen before, would become terrified, fleeing in horror from us, no less than our children here are terrified by the sight of a black also fleeing in horror for them.

[Teruel, Antonio de, Narrative Description of, the Kingdom of the Congo (1663-1664) Ms. 3533:3574/National Library, Madrid, Spain]

SOUTH INDIA

"It is a fact that in this country when a child is born they anoint him once a week with oil of sesame, and this makes him grow much darker than when he was born. For I assure you that the darkest man is here the most highly esteemed and considered better than the others who are not so dark. Let me add that in very truth these people portray and depict their gods and their idols black and their devils white as snow. For they say the God and all the saints are black and the devils are all white. That is why they portray them as I have described. And similarly they make the images of their idols all black."

[Marco Polo, The Travels, translated and with an Introduction by Ronald Latham, Middlesex: Penguin Books, 1958]

SOUTHEAST ASIA

"For the complexion of men, they consider black the most beautiful. In all the kingdoms of the southern region, it is the same."

[Nan Ts'i Chou, quoted by Rene Gaston Georges Maspero, The Kingdom of Champa. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1949]

Drusilla,

Some tribes in the Pacific mistakenly worshipped Europeans as Gods when they arrived on their big ships.

It is common knowledge that wherever Europeans went people wanted to meet them and trade with them.

If that wasn't the case slavery would never have happened.

You are living proof of the truth of my words.

Smile.

Delf747,

Remember, in the olden days, you had your good gods and your evil gods.

A lot of times people tell of Europeans being worshipped as god, by some tribal people and forget to mention that most times, they were worshipped as Evil gods.

Not the good gods.

I read somewhere (some amazon book review i think) that some white colonizers will put some electric stuff in their hand so that when they shook the natives, they felt an electric shock. This colonizer found it amusing that he's thought to have supernatural strength.
now i'll have to go look for it.

Isn't it ironic how some of us are so readily availabe to cast stones at others, Without any substantial proof.Yet they are the very same ones to have double personalities, claiming to hold positions or
 Occupy employments when deep inside they are lyinn not only to the world but to themselves
 I am who I am, and I don't need to be parading around under any type of pretense
 What you see is what you get, hate me or love me
 I don't have to muster up false acolades about myself in a vain effort of soliciting followers
 I can attract others to me, just by being
 ME

Delf747,

Your idea that you can just -- close your eyes and pretend that nobody is Black and nobody is White and that solves all the world's problems, is better explained to the drug counselor, who can help you with your meth problem.

As the professor said:

Colorblindness = Racism in Drag Queen Clothes.
