While Robinson is very good, and extremely learned and thoughtful, I watch Harris Lacewell in awe. Her kind of intellect is rare. When people ask which famous person would you like to have dinner with, she's my answer. Or how about the woman that used to guest host for Olbermann, really glib gal from NPR? Can't think of her name just because it's been a while since she's been on. She was positioned like Maddow, who while she is white, also happens to be one of two lesbian show hosts in America. It's not a sea of diversity, but Malkin's comments are nonsense. <br /><br />So just because Michelle Malkin and the lunatic fringe say something, and even if they repeat it enough times, it's still bullshit.Wine Doghttp://www.pinkbunnyears.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-41503943697722103262010-02-12T03:47:31.433-05:002010-02-12T03:47:31.433-05:00Prometheus Brown X Old Sade track = "Michelle...Prometheus Brown X Old Sade track = "Michelle Malkin"<br /><br />http://02cd02a.netsolhost.com/blog/2010/02/new-music-a-sade-redux-by-prometheus-brown-titled-michelle-malkin/<br /><br />Filipino American emcee Geologic dropping knowledge about Mrs. Malkin. A lyrical throwdown!<br /><br />And yes, Malkin is a disgrace to Asian Americans everywhere. As Malkin is the author of the book "In Defense of Internment" (a book advocating the racist treatment of Japanese Americans during WWII and racial profiling), I don't see how anyone can say otherwise. Malkin herself is the daughter of Filipino American immigrants, another group of Americans who have suffered discrimination and racist treatment - many Filipino American WWII veterans still have not received compensation or recognition for their service during WWII - a issue Malkin also conveniently ignores despite her pronouncements of patriotism. <br /><br />I don't see African American authors rushing to publish books advocating slavery or lynching was a good thing.<br /><br />Hence, Malkin = self-hating disgrace to Asian Americans.<br /><br />Oh, and before any accuses me of liberal bias - I'm a 4th generation American of Asian descent. Both of my parents were registered Republicans and I grew up in a Conservative household that proudly voted for Reagan (who BTW, signed a bill apologizing and recognizing the injustice done to Japanese Americans and order reparations to be paid).Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01930065887130667289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-36053313728779539162010-02-12T01:33:36.283-05:002010-02-12T01:33:36.283-05:00agape2010, "I hardly think that being stereot...agape2010, "I hardly think that being stereotyped in any way for anyone is ever "positive".

I have Asian friends who are artists, store owners, car dealers, writers, accountants, engineers, doctors, etc. <br /><br />My point is that as a group, Asians and Jews are stereotyped as pretty well educated because their families know the importance of an education. But whatever Asian parents stress to their kids has little to do with what Blacks are doing. Don't you agree? <br /><br />Bottomline: Blacks as a group need to stress the importance of an education. Right now, over 60% of our highschool kids are dropouts. That is an astounding and disturbing figure!

Off the top of my head, there's a Dentist, a Scientist, a Police Detective with a Master's degere, an Architect, a Nurse, and an Engineer, ALL from my street.<br /><br />You are right however, about how mercilessly I was attacked when I spoke of those things on this blog and to be honest, this has happened in my real life as well (although with not nearly as much vitriolic fever). But I "blame" a lot of this on the slave/crab in the bucket mentality white slave owners taught slaves which unfortunately many Blacks still maintain today.<br /><br />Now to answer your question about why, you're right again, there aren't a lot of Black Scientists, but the reason isn't what you probably think it is. There are plenty enough Black folks smart enough to be Sceintists. The reason is that the racism is so pervasive and the lack of mentors so few that many decide to move onto paths already paved. For example, when I was the only Black student among 12 total to test out of first year freshman Chemistry, I was told before I'd ever taken an exam that I would never be a Scientist or Doctor. White/Asian kids generally don't have to hear this kinda bullshit. And what I deal with now as the ONLY Black Lab Director at my place of work, the youngest and all without a PhD well shit, I guess I don't have all day to respond to your post.<br /><br />So don't get it twisted, when it comes to Science, Blacks are more than capable, I know because I've mentored a lot of them.
