    Yeah and the funny thing is, it's not white people forcing this on blacks. It's those select blacks in that article actually wanting it.

    Thats the real question now isnt it my friend?

    Me and my girlfriend were talking about this very thing last night (she is Asian). There is this idea that white people already have everything, black people make the United Negro College Fund, BET, now Afro-centric schools. If Indians or Asians were to request the same there probably wouldnt be a problem. But if white people were to request it than it would be considered the ultimate form of racism...well because everything already is caucasian-based...(in their eyes at least). And it's a load of BS.

    The problem is when people feel they have been hurt (in whatever form) they feel they have to right to hear what they want and furthermore make rash decisions based on those events/circumstances. This feeling seems to have be inherent among blacks...which now I will probably catch slack for because yes of course its not ALL blacks but hey there must be a lot if now they have their own schools.

    Blacks will argue that they have BET because all the other stations already are white, ABC, NBC, CBC etc. And this is where the problem with that comes into play. Can you IMAGINE that uproar if one night a news station was reporting on the war in the middle east and doing a tribute to all of the fallen soldiers in the past months and ONLY named the white people? Well Im sure people would be fired and shit would stir up real fast...well guess what, BET did that very thing, reporting only the blacks who died in the line of duty.

    Its being taken too far is my point. If you wanna have BET fine do it, but to take it to the point where you ONLY see black people and are blind to the rest than that is the worst segregation you can create.

    The main reason I have heard about the cirriculum is that they want it more afro-focused. I mean the problem is YOU MOVED TO CANADA, we learn abotu CANADIAN history for god sakes.
    Yes everyone is welcome and I love and I mean love our multi-culturalism. But my god its like trying to make it the opposite. You choose Canada because you want opportunity and because we ARE so diverse, everyone is accepted as an equal and its one of the reasons blacks move here yet then they dont want to have to go to school with people of other races LOL. Its a shame really that this is what it has come to.

    Honestly the more I hear about this its kinda of getting funny.

    Agreed. Anytime I read or hear the word "racist" I just smile. The word has no meaning to me any longer.....and I think that this pisses off those who throw it around.
