Comment on Bill Maher: I’m not into black women by TheThink http://www.mixedmediawatch.com/2005/08/10/bill-maher-im-not-into-black-women/#comment-20941 TheThink Tue, 26 Sep 2006 06:44:09 +0000 http://www.mixedmediawatch.com/index.php/archives/2005/08/bill-maher-im-not-into-black-women/#comment-20941 [...] The ladies will still be blogging about all of your favorite topics regarding race that do indeed fall out of the range of Racialicious, but don’t worry: they’ve got some really excellent stuff in the making. I can promise you that (call it a hunch). We all remember when we first encountered blogs or websites that changed our life in one way or another. I stumbled across MMW by performing a Google search for Bill Maher and black women.

I didn't say that, repeating yourself doesn't make it true, you don't read what I actually wrote, you put words in my mouth, you have the same arguments that go nowhere, and I'm no longer wasting any time on you. Hi Eric! Bye Eric! *waste of space* Second verse, same as the first.

It still goes down like this.. 1. a few black men are going to Brazil for either sex vacations or a wife. 2. They are spending 3,000 dollars to enjoy this fantasy 3. Coming back to the states with either a Brazilian wife/girlfriend 4. Sexually transmitted diease 5. Likely gave it to their loved one Lady/wife Do I care that adults are entering into a legal fiancial transaction though morally suspect NO !!!!!! Would I go to Brazil to get indulge what I think is just some male fantasy at deference NO !!!!! Do I give a rat's ass about women indulging in the world's oldest profession in a third- world country NO !!!! Do I think that Cobb misreported the story to slant his particular or esscence bias about our so- called "edumcated" brothas ? YES !!!!! For every negative story in this article, there are 10 postives the brotha who found his wife and intends to bring her back to the states, that happens too. Some Black American Men, who like Woody Harrelson, Sean Connerelly, Gordan Parks, Wesley Snipes (who started this generation's obession's with foriegn women) and Tiger Woods and thanks to Pharell and Snopp's video in Rio "some" lyonside Black American Men are going to.. 1. Brazil 2. Africa 3. Asia 4. Northern Europe 5. Middle East Doing what men of other races (particularly white american men) are bringing back foriegn wives and blurring the lines of the Black Family. I don't see the outrage when White Military Men or Computer geeks in Silcon Valley or Seatle bring back wives from Russia or Bosnia. Folks like you want to think that Black Folks are still special and we have that moral aura of morality that we won't oppress our brothas and sistas in the third world. Lyonside put down the Bob Marley and Stevie Wonder albums we are human beings not special in any sort of moral way except some of us are oppresssing poor Brazilan Women in the world's oldest profession.

Comment on Which of these things is not like the other? by James Landrith http://www.mixedmediawatch.com/2006/07/17/which-of-these-things-is-not-like-the-other/#comment-20878 James Landrith Mon, 25 Sep 2006 19:50:55 +0000 http://www.mixedmediawatch.com/2006/07/07/which-of-these-things-is-not-like-the-other/#comment-20878 Why is Rachel Sullivan attacking the right of multi-generational multiracial to identify as such? Who appointed her the Racial Boundaries Guard? Since when did it become her right a self-identified white woman to question the racial classifications of others? It seems a bit racist and condescending to me. Why is Rachel Sullivan attacking the right of multi-generational multiracial to identify as such? Who appointed her the Racial Boundaries Guard?

Since when did it become her right a self-identified white woman to question the racial classifications of others?

Comment on Study on how parents identify their mixed kids by James Landrith http://www.mixedmediawatch.com/2006/02/16/study-on-how-parents-identify-their-mixed-kids/#comment-20876 James Landrith Mon, 25 Sep 2006 19:46:45 +0000 http://www.mixedmediawatch.com/index.php/archives/2006/02/study-on-how-parents-identify-their-mixed-kids/#comment-20876 Yeah, Jen I feel your pain. I wasn't too fond of the methodology either. It started to resemble junk science in the worst way once the conclusions began to surface. Yeah, Jen I feel your pain.

Comment on More mixed-ness on Top Model by James Landrith http://www.mixedmediawatch.com/2005/12/01/more-mixed-ness-on-top-model/#comment-20875 James Landrith Mon, 25 Sep 2006 19:41:53 +0000 http://www.mixedmediawatch.com/index.php/archives/2005/12/more-mixed-ness-on-top-model/#comment-20875 I wonder, why does Rachel instantly rush to the judgment that Nigel was passing? Because he didn't say he was multiracial at every turn or make it the focal point of every situation? Why is it that certain academics continue to project the concept of only one form of racial identity ? Why can't he choose to reveal or not reveal at will without such loaded and racialist terms such as "passing" being applied? It seems a bit suspect of her to instantly jump to the "passing" conclusion. I wonder, why does Rachel instantly rush to the judgment that Nigel was passing?

Comment on “Mixed” = advantageous by James Landrith http://www.mixedmediawatch.com/2006/04/16/mixed-advantageous/#comment-20873 James Landrith Mon, 25 Sep 2006 19:24:47 +0000 http://www.mixedmediawatch.com/2006/04/16/mixed-advantageous/#comment-20873 Sorry Rachel, but Jen is absolutely right. Identifying as multiracial is about acknowledging all you are, not running from your blackness or trying to elevate yourself above others. Your obvious embrace of the racist one-drop rule makes your constant presence in the multiracial community troubling. Sorry Rachel, but Jen is absolutely right.
