I still say ...if there was a site advertised on TV called MeetWhiteSingles.com ...some people would be enraged and it would be all over the news as being a racist site. So why doesn't it work both ways if this country is supposed to be promoting racial equality ?

ok heres where you get a little confused. YOu think the term Black is an just about colour. Its not. its African American, Caribbean, African, Ppl of mixed heritage. it also include every "black " person from the African Diaspora. as you know many of them do not know their exact lineage, due to their ancestors taking a cruise that dropped them off in some crappy timeshare (Americas etc). The use of the term black by people of African descent arose in the 70's in the black power movement, and various civil rights works ( see Angela Davis etc) So the term Black is used to describe, colour, culture, ethnicity, origin.

So if theres a website stating meet african-American-Caribbean-Mixed-african- descent-african diasporic-people. com will you still be up in arms.??

I think not.

a little knowledge goes a long way.

and i'm black ya'lll and i'm black y'all , i'm blackety black and i'm black ya'll.

As one of the few remaining black Irish I resent the usurpation.

It's highly illegal to usurpate in public, si man. However, it's almost time to go out beating the bushes to look for leprechauns, begorra man.
