    Black People : I hate the label: Uncle Tom

    Panafrica.. It is interesting whom you chose to label. Is it their action, or their ideology? I am a VERY Conservative man.. I lick at no-ones boot heels. I could point out to you several thousand examples of black men and/or women who subjugate themselves to the will of the powers who be, who...

    Black People : I hate the label: Uncle Tom

    Call me crazy, but Isn't it a little over the top to criticize a black man in a republican administration by calling him "Uncle Tom?" The daily Kos, a decidedly left wing blog (It's a free country, the left wingers are entitled to blog if they wish, posts this story. A viciouse attack on a...

    Black People : How do I use indentation, change the shape, etc. for my writings.

    Oh... While I am thinking about it.. I did want to mention hexidecimal color codes. This can really make it fun, because you can use any number of 16,000,000 color variations! You see, when you limit the number of colors to nouns, you can only choose between sixteen different colors. For...

    Black People : Do you live in the 'hood ... moved out ... or was never there?

    I am open to being corrected. NNQueen... I don't even try to to describe subjective terms. Nor do I identify with negative superlatives. Story posted a link to an interesting site. UppityNegro.com if I remember correctly. If that is empowering to some.. then I say let them feel...

    What would you do?

    What would you do for your kid? Would you do anything? Would you work in a job that you don't like that much? Would you go to church even if you have to work Sunday afternoon? Would you work an extra job to pay for an after school program? Would you really do anything? Would you move to a...

    Black People : Do you live in the 'hood ... moved out ... or was never there?

    I don't know, given my background, whether or not that is a good thing. Story, when you say that it is what you are "used to it..." I think to myself that I don't ever want my nine year old to think that that is the norm. I would like her to know that there are places like that.. but not to...

    Black People : Do you live in the 'hood ... moved out ... or was never there?

    Im not totally getting your post there NNQueen. That sounds nice. Now this part... doesn't sound so nice. I am having a hard time reconciling the two. You live in a nice neighborhood, filled with fresh air and flowers, but your white neighbors, albeit widely spaced, engage in...

    Black People : Bush will "allow" Condoleeza Rice to testify

    Well Happy, I dissagree, but that's no big deal. I thought she did a pretty good job. The panel was out to do her as much damage as possible IMO. It would have been much more interesting had they attempted to seek the truth, rather than slam/talk over Doctor Rice. Hugh Hewitt wrote an...

    Black People : Bush will "allow" Condoleeza Rice to testify

    I watched the last hour and 1/2 or so. It started a bit early west coast time for me. I thought she (Dr. Rice) did very well. She maintained her decorum, and in the face of some pretty abusive attacks, (which to me at times seemed far more concerned with the politics, and less with the...

    Black People : Do you live in the 'hood ... moved out ... or was never there?

    I don't live in "the hood." never have. I live in Oregon, we don't have the same kind centralized urban areas for the most part. I suppose in Portland there are certain areas that might qualify. We have crime here, and drugs (mostly crystal, and pot. Petty burglary, and car theft) which are...

    Black People : How do I use indentation, change the shape, etc. for my writings.

    Deepy... I am not sure what you mean by "the box." If you mean that you click on a tool and a dialog "input" field appears.. well, you don't have to use those.. just write the code yourself on the page. I find those things kind of annoying. It's just as easy for me to type {code} blah...

    Black People : Trent Lott Moment...

    After reading the thread about the police officer titled "Childish Hatred," I thought this was an article which should be read. Raymond
