I love when a white dude tells a black dude how things are.
How would you know this?
I'm not white though, terrible assumption.
nah, pretty sure i got it right based on your apologist posts
always a little too eager to side with the other
Missed the point and not remotely close. World is not black and white because there are bigger minorities in the mix now.
I'm not boycotting by not buying something.......thats ******g stupid....this law is a state by state issue that needs to be handled accordingly
Bingo!
Why don't you just do it?
People are vowing not to spend ANY money today on anything, to show their discontenet for the verdict.What are people boycotting?
Are you black?
Black spending power is still vital to most communities...
With buying power projected to reach 1.1 trillion by 2015...
Wonder how much of that percentage includes sneakers?

- Dwight K. SchruteYou gotta get the black people to do it to get the white people to do it. Then you gotta get the black people to stop doing it. One step at a time.
Perfect response. I did the exact same thing upon reading the title
BREAKING: George Zimmerman goes back in time and frees slaves!!
GZ is dat dude... Who else u know catch a body and save a family this year besides GZ and Superman?
Are you black?
If you aren't, you can't really assert what the world is to certain people. Unfortunately, for many black folks all that is seen IS their skin color. The reverse is also true--many minorities only see a white person's skin color.
So sure, YOU may feel that we're past the black/white thing in America for whatever reason you want. But that doesn't mean that your experiences ring true for everyone. Even if you're black, that still holds true. Everyone experiences different things.
way too many emotions going on. No logic.
Jay-Z and JT are boycotting but are still doing the concert they had scheduled in Florida

Why?Jay taking pics with Sharpton made me look at him differently.
Okay, I'm assuming you're a minority then.We are not remotely past it by any means, saying we are no longer in a "black and white country", doesn't mean we are in a "post-racial" world. We are far from it. The problem with most of these race threads is that they become about black vs. white when in reality NO ONE is standing behind you, NO ONE is supporting you.Are you black?

I'm glad I was able to grow up in a diverse place, where I've had to deal with different races/ethnicities/cultures. Beat the ethnocentrism out of me.
If you're not black or white, there is no such thing as "getting past the black/white thing", because we were never a part of it. Mexicans, Salvadorians, Domincans, Puerto Ricans we are all different, yet we get clumped together. Koreans, Japanese, Chinese, even Filipinos, they are all different yet unfortunately clumped together. I could go on. All these minorities that are growing, and getting bigger have never been a part of this "black/white thing", and if that is your focus they/we will NEVER stand behind you.
When it came to the Trayvon Martin case, there was very little coverage on major Spanish Networks, until the rioting/looting and protesting on the freeway took place. Guess how it made these folks look to the Latino community?
Think about it. Races/Ethnicities are heavily divided and it's partly due because some people can't get past the "black/white" thing.
Yes, people experience different things, hence why it's polarizing to make everything "black/white".
