So now that Im going to be less white is it ok for me to say Sup Nigga?
Yeah I didnt think so.
Im beyond baffled at how promoting racism is solving racism....not that there is really a serious race problem these days. I can only imagine what I could accomplish these days if I was young and non white. The opportunies at hand are mind boggling for those that take their education seriously. It has become very apparent that all of the special groups arent seeking equality. Far from it.

Old azz cracka here. Btw, my mom picked cotton, no running water growing up, rode in a wagon, lived in a shotgun house with newspaper stuck up on the walls for insulation, mentally ill mom with an alcoholic father. She survived that and went on to serve people in nursing as an LVN. She worked shift work as long as I can remember, had three children. We were poor but clean. She died at 89. That was seven years ago.
My dad was raised in El Campo. He joined the Navy right before turning 18. He served on the USS Oklahoma in Pearl Harbor when it was bombed. Stayed in for the duration of WWII.
He met and married my mom in 1950. We left ElCamp and came to Houston in a 1951 Chevy. I think that was in 1960 or 61. He found a better paying job there. He was making almost $4.00 an hour as a laborer. Worked there 29 years and retired. He passed away in 2010 at age 88.
Both my parents lived through the Great Depression as well. In the 70,s my dad was layed off or cut back for a while. The union gave us bread and cheese blocks. At age 78 moms health caught up with her. My dad took care of her for the remaining eight years of his life. There is not a day that goes by that I don’t think about them in one way or another. My mom was English and my dads people were Scottish. Ever heard of Fraser Castle in Scotland?
I’m forever indebted to God for giving me parents that instilled An ethic of hard work, perseverance, toughness, love of country, and faith in God to me. God created me white and I’m not ashamed. I won’t be shamed nor will I shame anyone else for their color.
