So being biracial, am I part of the black community, the white community, or both? There are hundreds, maybe thousands of communities all across the country; Many of them are predominately of one ethnic group but there is not one massive black community or white community. Even WITHIN these small communities every single individual won’t be in consensus on most issues, and it’s ridiculous to suggest they would.

The trouble with your argument lies in the fact that alot of people with black blood/skin will agree with you, but the moment it benefits any one of them to be black, they’ll claim they are. Such as on an application with a firm known to favor blacks in the hiring process, or the application to a university that still supports affirmative action. You can’t, and shouldn’t, have it both ways.
Theres also caramel, brown, Chocolate, several other colors of skin that I do not know because I am neither black, nor a fruit who knows about different colors regardless of their connection to me.
@adlerbr12 Perhaps by race lineage, but not by appearance, I don’t believe most white people look at the president as a white man, only those that will not admit that we do indeed have a non-white president.

call me stupid. but what the hell is the black community? the general opinion of black people? that just sounds waaaay too rough a demographic to call a community. that’s like asking for the general opinion of left-handed people, it’s too rough

i’m black and while some in the black community may speak out against what tiger has done, the entire black community doesn’t speak for me. i’m a man of free will and thoughts.

if tiger woods wasn’t a celebrity, would anyone really give a shit? i think not. i for one don’t care about what tiger has done. tiger woods is human and this recent indiscretion proves it. some people have deified him and one idiot even started a church of worship in the name of tiger woods. upon the recent events, he closed the church down. all tiger woods did was disprove jack nicklaus’ claim that a black man doesn’t have the musculature to play golf. other than that i don’t care what he does

That’s their programming. Willie Lynch so to speak. But blacks sure wanted to take credit for his hard earned work. You’re always black when you look good but as soon as you show you’re human boy that’s it. I don’t associate myself with blacks.

They talked about Michael Jackson judged him for his disease, agreed that he was a child molester, etc. But when he passed away, some pretended to be sorrowful, others tried to exploit the energy of his death, but NONE told the truth or admitted they’d added to his pressure. Blacks again, are fickle creatures moving with whatever is popular at the time. Most hated Tiger Woods because he was mixed.

These engaging in this dialogue about Tiger Woods also engage in the same dialogue on Michael Jackson. In both cases they were negative and virulent regurgitating the lies of the bitter ashkenazim who can’t stand it when blacks succeed in spite of the racist infrastructure they’ve carefully devised in order to keep themselves hidden, wealthy, and appearing to be the voice of civil rights.

I see this as the choice of the individual.
As for Tiger, he can do whatever.

Black = color of the skin …

Very well put. Black Community..lol….like we all think the same exact thoughts simultaneously…..
#11 by chromesthesia on January 23, 2010 - 6:42 pm
Black is such a strange term anyway. *is black, or is that brown?*
But communities kind of… scare me.. as groups of people are scary and plus I seldom fit into them anyway.

@wellguesswhatIthink I think it is safe to say that most inner-cities in fact do have Black communities. And that is no coincidence.

So i guess that Obama is not a black man he is just as much white ,ok.
So whats all this talk about history being made by electing a black man , he is just as white as he is black .

@antidebtorsrevolt , I agree and nobody can speak for an entire group of people anyways……. Just total madness if you ask me……
It’s almost as if some media outlets want the “black” community to respond negatively or something…..and we could care less…
#17 by Creditgirl2020 on January 23, 2010 - 9:17 pm
Thank you for making this video. I’m so glad I can find someone that shares my views on this whole Tiger Woods/ Black community madness.
Funny thing is, most of my black friends are married and we all agree that too many “groups” are speaking on our behalf.
Anyways….take care..

keep making the videos , theyre a nice dose of sanity

Please someone give this guy a national TV show He is so spot on, on so many issues
and represents a missing massive voice in America.

most black people are mixed otherwise we would be all jet black. Remember black americans foreparents were raped by whites during slavery.
