this day.

R.I.P, DR.KING!

I enjoyed the day off, plus your historical significants.

This man is celebrated by all. ALL!! lol except racists
Why wouldn't all people get the day off???????
We are celebrating his birth....not his death.

but this thread ain't about your stupid comment.

lol

how many of you feel that TODAY white people are uninformed about figures like Dr. King and the contributions that him and others made to the civil rights movement??

where I live, and in my experience, I have found the opposite to be true.

Most of my non-white kids that I have coached, tutored, or graded papers have little or no knowledge of the civil rights movement.

range'n from 5th grades who I tutor
7th 8th and 9th graders I coach
and college students whos papers I grade as a TA


interest in the subject is also abismal

last semester I was a TA for a civil rights class and a political change in america class, and these kids (all of them) were for lack of a better world clueless.

Half dropped plenty failed and only a handfull really read the material and preservered.

There were also only 4 black students in both classes.

My experience has been that no particular race has displayed more knowledge about the civil rights movement than another.

What has your experience been?

Frist off, Why do you take everthing I say and try to spin it with your confused logic? Where did I say we are celebrating his death? You're comprehension skills are dismal. If martin luther king never stood up and peacefully revolutionize America for the better of all blacks He wouldn't be celebrated at all today. My point was it's amazing how most white people back then weren't for his revolution. Yet now even white people celebrate his complishments. It's ironic how far white america has come.

There is nothing stupid about my comment. It's completely true.
Most people don't understand martin luther king's day, you being one of these people. most people don't even know, a man named James earl ray assassinated him. In todays world, people see martin luther king's day as nothing more than a day off from work. Most white people don't even understand the man's civil struggle for the blacks right to vote, to end the segergation, and his dream of Unifing all races peacefully under one nation, regardless of race, creed, or class. Are you honestly that envious of me? or are you just trying to state some bullshit confused opposition to a perspective? or are you just so ignorant and filled with hate for me you saw what you wanted to see? To you martin luther king's day is just his brithday.

This Demagogue crusade your on, it isn't working.
Because honestly, Your still a dumb tool.

You shouldn't be tutoring anyone.
you shouldn't be grading anything.


MY signature says it all about people like you. If this thread isn't about my comment than why would you post it and then make a confused opinion on it? Honestly you mere child you make nosense. You're either stupid or envious. There is no other option.

you didn't say most people you said white people dont know about Dr. king and the civil rights movement.
And do you really believe that white people dont know shit about the civil rights movement?
I'm willing to bet, that white people <as a whole> know more about the civil rights movement than do blacks.


hate? envy?? lol tell my why again.

This thread is a good indication of your envious hate for me. You totally misunderstood what I said and are now blowing it out of proportion like a emotional woman does.What you just explained wasn't even my point. That is your confused perceptive on what I said, your hate for me clouded your judgement. Though if you wish I can give you a reasonable answer to what you interfered with?

That's funny, because I was under the impression you carried all the weight.
Mostly in that tire shaped stomach area people in shape refer to as abdominal muscle.You really should look at your own behavior. Fucking behavior police man.

[BeEgEe]

no this thread is a good indication of your stupid comments.

lol.


then .....what was your point menaz.

what point were you trying to make by saying white people shouldn't get the day off and white people dont know anything about King and his accomplishments in the civil rights movement

[menaz]

no this thread is a good indication of your stupid comments.

The only one making stupid comments is you. You keep doing it over and over.
Because you don't read properly.

then .....what was your point menaz. what point were you trying to make by saying white people shouldn't get the day off and white people dont know anything about King and his accomplishments in the civil rights movement

Again My misguided white trash friend from doltish land. I never said white people shouldn't get off for martin luther kings day. I never said that. I've explain to you why I said what I said twice now, once directly, once indirectly. You're either too stupid to comprehend it, or you're a glutton for punishment. Either way your a envious hater.
