Angela Rye, Executive Director of the Congressional Black Caucus, has declared that the term “cool” is now a negative racial term. So we’ve gone from the threat of slavery for black to the threat… of being referred to as “cool.”
NO PROGRESS WHATSOEVER! SEPARATE RACIAL GROUPS IN CONGRESS ARE TOTALLY NECESSARY AND NOT ARCHAIC!
Don’t be a racist. Anytime a black person does something, say, “That’s not cool!”
Crap I think I need a list of what is racist and what is not. I know macaka was deemed raciest but after that I’m unsure
That’s alright…I never thought he was cool anyway.
I think maybe this rocket scientist has ‘cool’ and KOOL (the cigarette) confused, since
African Americansblack people are often stereotyped as smoking KOOLs…because…they often do.Maybe if people like this want people to stop stereotyping them, they’d stop living up to every single one of them.
Funny, I’m pretty sure that forming a group called the “Congressional Black Caucus” is about as racist as you can get.
I think she’s just trying to say that cool is the new black.
I thought in order to be in the Congressional Black Caucus, you had to be IN Congress. She ain’t exactly straight outta Africa either: http://politic365.com/2012/06/09/angela-rye/
She’s more black than Lizzy is Indian but not by much.
Who pays her?
To be on the safe side it might be best if any person having a low, natural, melanin count (spraytanners and Jersey Shore goofs don’t get to cross the color line)…if such people avoid words ending in “ger”.
E.G.: “bigger” transits through “bigro” to being “bigrican-american”. “My gosh, look at how much bigrican-american the grandchildren have grown!” “Chigger” transits through “chigro” to “chigrican-american” “Wow, Dan, you shouldn’t’ve put your bedroll on the ground last night, it looks like the chigrican-americans bit your face.”
Truly, such linguistic compromises will be appreciated as caring gestures made towards a greater social harmony.
You gotta point No_Mo_Bama…she ain’t exactly Maxine Waters black now is she?
Speaking of cool, where’s Zo been lately?
‘Racism Isn’t Cool’ but it sure is profitable.
Some people have been making their living off it since the 60’s.
Following the links back, I just learned that “break” is also racist, because they used to break slaves. Well that’s just wrong. The word “break” was used more often in relation to horses, so I guess if anything it would be horsist (horseist?).
