10 white people who used to be black.

In lieu of some white dude declaring that Stacey Dash is no longer black, not to mention all the racial confusion we had with folks like Rachel Dolezal earlier this year,  I have decided to publish a list of ten white people who used to be black.

1. Stacey Dash- This was a no-brainer. This washed up actress used to get roles primarily on Black Entertainment Television, and pose for pics in black male magazines. [see pic] But then she started getting older and less attractive, so she decided to become white, as she is quite aware that there are some white folks who will no doubt appreciate her for her intellect.   

2. Clarence Thomas- I know that this dude still looks black, but that's just an illusion. Believe me when I tell you, he is white. Or at least he really wishes that he was.

3. Don Lemon- This (former)Negro was born and raised in Louisiana, where they have the brown bag test. He passed it so much that he actually started believing that he was not a part of the folks who failed it.

4. Allen West- If you ask Allen he will tell you that he was never black in the the first place. He just has a really nice tan from living in Florida.

5. Pharrell- Hey, I love Pharrell too. But we have to let him go, people. 

6. Raven-Symoné- Raven started off as a black child star, but she stared getting whiter as she got older. The transformation is now complete.

7. Harris Faulkner- Girlfriend had me fooled for a minute. Not anymore.

8.  Ben Carson- There is no way a black man could get all those evangelicals from the Midwest to support him. I think Dr. Ben hypnotizes those poor old people with his voice. **I am white, I am white. ** 

9.  Amy Holmes-The networks like to bring on Amy to add some diversity to their lineups. The joke is on them.

10. O.J. Simpson-Wait, this is a mistake. My bad folks. O.J. was actually white for awhile, but apparently he is black again.

(Hmmm, I need at least one sports figure......)

Ok, I will go with Tiger Woods. Although something tells me that he will be black again real soon.

If the race draft was held today.....

 In a way you have to feel sorry for Stacey Dash. She is an aging "actress" (and I use that term loosely) who is way past her prime, and whose best roles are long behind her.

What else was she going to do to stay relevant? She had no choice but to hook up with FOX VIEWS and become their house coon. The black person they call when they want to have a black person bash other black people.  Kind of like Crystal Wright does over at CNN or whatever network calls her to give some face time to make her ignorant and ill-informed comments. 

But back to the coon of the moment (her cousins' words, not mine), Stacey Dash.

Poor Stacey doesn't realize that she is being used by these white folks, and that she will never be accepted by them.

I suspect, though, that she doesn't care. As long as the checks don't bounce and she can stay in the public spotlight, she is fine with her current role as the black person who wishes that she was white.

“BET lies to American black people by telling them that the rest of America is racist, so stick close to your own kind,” she wrote in a blog post titled “How BET Lies To Black People” posed on Jan. 21. “My problem goes back to the notion that every area of life needs to break down exactly according to demographic ratios except in those areas in which black people have decided they want to have their own space. I don’t have a problem with black people having their own space. I have a problem with the folks at BET absolutely freaking out when other institutions don’t match up to what they think is best.” [Source]

"THEIR OWN SPACE"? Well we have to give it to Stacey, at least she has already accepted the fact that she is no longer black.

I guess "The Drop Squad" worked faster than I thought this time.

Finally, I am going to be stuck under at least 20 inches of snow this weekend. I need some suggestions for a good book to read just in case my power goes out.

No country for old racists, and a "Clueless" (and talentless) star gets new life.

A police Commissioner in an American city calls the president of the country that his city is located in a Nigger and he refuses to apologize.


I must admit that I find this development more amusing than upsetting. I take comfort in the fact that the guy is a dying breed and he, and others like him, will be all dead soon.


But still....

"Resident Jane O’Toole said she overheard Wolfeboro Police Commissioner Robert Copeland use a racial slur in describing Obama. And in an email to her, Copeland, who is white, acknowledged using the N-word in referring to the president and said he will not apologize.

“I believe I did use the ‘N’ word in reference to the current occupant of the Whitehouse,” Copeland said in an excerpt from an email he sent to his fellow police commissioners acknowledging his remark and then forwarded to O’Toole. “For this, I do not apologize — he meets and exceeds my criteria for such.”

Copeland also wrote: “While I believe the problems associated with minorities in this country are momentous, I am not phobic.”  [Source]

Problems with "minorities"? They guy lives in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire. What "minorities" is he having problems with?

Anyway, this is the new normal as far as I am concerned. Old white men who are angry and afraid that they are losing their country and who just can't hold in their racism any longer.

There are a lot of Harley Browns  and guys like Robert Copeland in the world. These are the people who mistake tolerance and decency for political correctness gone amok.  

Take a look around you, they are everywhere. And soon (if it hasn't happened already) they will be controlling the narrative.

Finally, congrats to Stacey Dash for potentially landing a gig over at FOX Views.

It must be tough when you have no talent as an actress and can't make it in your chosen profession. Thank goodness she made a smart career decision and supported Mitt Romney during this last election. She had to have known that FOX would come calling. FOX just loves Negroes like Stacey.

Ms. Dash is most famous for a movie called Clueless.

That, my friends, is called irony.  

 

An old issue is back, and Stacey disses Obama.

Bless Abigail Fisher’s pure white heart. She was a straight A student in high school and even played the cello for good measure. Her sibling and her father attended UT Austin, and that is where she wanted to go. But, sadly for Ms. Fisher, she had to settle for one of Mrs. Field’s alma mater, LSU.(My heart bleeds.) Of course, like so many other white people in “post racial” America, she is sick of being discriminated against, so she is did what any red blooded American would do: she sued.

Now, four years later, her case is before the Supremes.
The University of Texas says that even without "affirmative action" Abigail wouldn't have made the cut. But Abigail doesn't believe it; she thinks that one of those minorities took her spot. Her spot.
 

So can a university select a student body it wants to look like the larger community and society at large? Does having a more diverse student body give students who graduate from said university a better opportunity to compete in the real world? The University of Texas seems to think so. 

Republican appointed jurist, Sandra Day O’Conner, writing for the majority in a case styled Grutter v. Bollinger, believes that it does as well. Abigail, --and  I suspect most white people in America-- does not.

You can’t use racial quotas, but you can certainly consider race as one of the factors. This seems reasonable to me if you consider other factors such as economic background and family hardships as well. I am all for a poor white kid who has been disadvantaged all of his or her life getting more consideration than a wealthy black kid with all the privileges afforded those with wealth in this country.

To me, there is affirmative action and what the University of Texas is doing. What they are doing is not affirmative action, what they are doing is trying to enhance their student body by bringing people of different backgrounds and experiences together.

But still, should we feel for some woe is me white folks like the ones I read about in Slate Magazine, today?

"I’ll start with the anger. J.R. Constable writes that after taking the community college courses he was told were required, he tried to transfer to California State University at Fresno, only to be told by a counselor there off the record: “ ‘We can’t admit you, because we have too many white males enrolled in your major.’ ” He says, “I was enraged,” and continues:

I wish I could say that within a few weeks I got over it, but I still find myself once in a while having the thoughts that I missed a promotion because of my gender, or race. Or that because I'm white I don't have as much potential, or ability. That I was being viewed as a failure. If life is supposed to be so much easier for me, why do I have to struggle so much?

Immediately after the incident, I was at the worst of my self-loathing, I was constantly hating myself for what I was, a white man. I hated myself for what I was becoming, a bigot. Race and gender went from being a non-issue, to being the only issue. I was crushed, and I dropped out of school. I settled in to the fact that because of something that happened to me at conception, that I had no control over, that is an insignificant part of the larger sum of me, I’d been doomed to being at the bottom.

 

J.R. says he was rejected from Cal State in the early 2000s, after California voters passed a referendum that barred the state from considering race, sex, or ethnicity in public employment, contracting, or education. He says he was told that the school needed more minorities in his major because of a federal funding mandate, and that trumped the state law. He also says he grew up poor, taking care of his disabled mother, and that he’s sure being on the losing side of affirmative action, as he sees it, was a terrible turning point for him."

An email from a man from Austin had the same flavor. When he didn’t get into the University of Texas at Austin law school in the mid-1970s, he was told that he’d met the minimum standard for test scores and grades, “but because of affirmative action and the fact that the University was trying to increase minority enrollment, there were not enough places for me. Tough luck.” He didn’t have the money to attend another law school, since he was living and working in Austin. “I never became an attorney,” he continues. “ I don’t harbor any ill will, but I guess just regret and sadness.

I checked on UT’s affirmative action policy in the ’70s. According to a 1994 court ruling, the law school had a separate admissions committee that considered applications from minority students and disadvantaged white students. In 1977, out of 500 applications, the committee admitted 68 minority students and three white students. So it’s true that the law school was trying to increase minority enrollment, and it’s possible that these efforts could have edged out a white student on the margin. For the man who wrote to me, that possibility is enough for a life’s worth of complicated emotion.
 

Robert Grant, who went to law school at the University of Mississippi in the 1990s, feels bitter about the scholarships he saw go to minority students. He’d just come out of the Air Force, the GI Bill didn’t cover graduate school, and he was working the graveyard shift at a local hotel to pay for school when he ran into a black classmate parking her fancy car. She was on scholarship; he was not. “This is justified as a remedy for past discrimination. Fine,” he writes. “However, I currently have over $100,000 in student loans. ... I wouldn’t be human if it didn’t leave a bad taste in my mouth.” [Source]

How did he know that the black law school student "parking her fancy car" didn't have a rich daddy? Anyway, I feel his pain. Color arousal can be a b*&^# sometimes.

Finally, I wish that you Negroes would leave Stacey Dash alone. So she supports Mitt Romney, there is nothing wrong with that. (Wasn't her biggest movie called "Clueless"?) This is America, and she pretty much has a right to support who she wants to become our president. I know I slammed her on twitter, but I was joking. I was not the person who called her a house slave.

Rip Stacey for her acting career....wait, she has no acting career. OK, fine, rip her for messing with my girl LisaRaye; but not this.

“Believe me I wish things had worked out because I thought Stacey and I were great together. She was my age and we were working it. It was sex-symbol to sex-symbol. But she didn’t want to be there. I was disappointed about that. She had some issues. I’m not sure exactly what those issues were. In the end, she and VH1 made a decision.”

Well, now we know. The poor child was having buyer's remorse over his Oness.
