You can judge whoever you like. If they subject themselves to your judgement, that's on them. Indeed, no one is any greater or less than any others. But imagine asking a person for freedom or equality... You decide to be free and determine your own value. If you have to ask to be free, you aren't free. If you have to ask for equality, you aren't equal.

I'm sure all of my great great grandparents kids passed this on to every child. Seeing him for the first time as a child in the movie Car Wash, the role he played, Abdullah, was him for the times. And for his family and race who felt like him. The role is for me and the rest of his lil cousins who deal with the same bigotry, racism, and hate that was passed on to people of today.

As an Asian American growing up in the late 80s and early 90s at Pomona, CA. a predominately African American neighborhood, I made a lot of black friends. I remembered all my friends use to walked me home and protected me from possible danger during the L.A. Riot. We saw each others as best friends or brothers. I will never forget those days. That being said, I truly believe that racism is taught or inherited but “We” as individuals don’t have to succumb to it. Racism is everywhere, therefor, we must embrace the notion that there is only one race: “The Human Race.”

During the Riots black people were going after Asians also because of the shooting of Latasha Harlins by a Korean lady when she mistakenly thought Latasha stole something and shot her in the back of her head as she was walking away but for some crazy reason the judge decided not to give the Asian lady any prison time. Black people started attacking Asians after that murder Korean or not, anyone who looked Eastern Asian was being attacked if they walked into the wrong place. I had two Japanese friends that were beaten almost to death in a shopping plaza by 4 black men who told them that the beating is for Latasha. The gun store owners couldn't keep up with the demand for guns from the Asian community in the LA area.

I would see him go on to be a great director as well, and am proud to think of him as a friend.

Thanks for sharing this reality.

[@sa819]

I was relieved to hear Mr. Duke talk about the sidewalk thing as I have been lied to by older, Southern white people when I try to get them to tell the truth about the sidewalk race rules for Atlanta. Poor whites who grew up at the Atlanta Milltown neighborhood have told me that the Atlanta police enforced the unwritten sidewalk rules based on whether or not the black person had a white "angel" ( usually an elite Atlanta AngloSaxon Klansmen or DoC relative or boss) who vouched for them. Sometimes, the black person did not know they had a white "angel" who was giving them a little leeway to walk on the sidewalk that other black people did not have. The most dangerous time for an elite black person in Atlanta was when their white " angel" died. Sometimes the white "angel"'s heirs secretly withdrew protection. The first inkling the unprotected Black Atlanta elite had that their privilege was revoked was when they walked down the sidewalk like they had for years, but ended up arrested for not jumping into the gutter for a "white" woman. It didn't matter to the police that the "white" woman wasn't really white, but "Atlanta Yellow" and that she was a prostitute who had been trafficked into Atlanta by the Klan police at such a young age she didn't know who she belonged to. It didnt matter that she did not want the black man arrested. The only thing that mattered was SWK Atlanta AngloSaxon power.

What? Everybody is from Africa, but the only people who do not live there and are forced to adhere to that continent rather than the one they have been in for hundreds of years are Black Americans. Your rhetoric is so backwards. Do you go under Austrialian videos and complain that the aboriginals built their own culture upon moving? What about those in South America? No right? So where is the logic here? "and always act like they are better than other blacks around the world ."" Have you traveled abroad? The only inclusive Black culture in the WORLD is in the US. Its why every other Blacks and "POC" die to live there. The hate for BAs is far greater than what you are making up in your mind. "the brainwashing starts in the African American community thinking they Indians lol" Indians are from India. Native American is a legal classification, not a race nor ethnicity. The truth is that only 5% of West africans in the slave trade arrived during the Transatlantic slave trade, hundreds of thousands occupied the land before after migrating on their own from Africa. You should travel more.

It def feels like the system wants to pimp us all. That's what a system is - rules to keep things a certain way. When slaves were freed, they had no money, family, rights, homes, etc, we started way behind in America. Only 50 years ago, discrimination was still legal in many ways, so we were further held back. NOW, HOWEVER most things are a lot more fair. Check out Robert F Smith and Ken Chenault

[@cyorkgo]

Did you hear Vlad's, yeah, okay at the 3:44 mark. Although he knows the history of America, it is still difficult for non-black people to hear it and it should be. People really think just because a law was implemented (slavery ended, civil rights bill) that people changed the way they felt about black people. As if they had a racist switch in them that they could cut off. This was just 50 years ago people. So that means if your mother was a racist then, she is just a tolerable racist now. But you grew up with racist parents, grandparents, uncles cousins and aunties. They BBQ's black folks, lynched, castrated, bombed children. That is some deeply rooted hatred for another human being just because they are a different color. So don't think that deep rooted hatred just went away because a so called law went into affect. How old is the President of the USA? The senators and their families? What side of the fence do you think they were on in the 50s and 60s? Do you think they changed their view just because of a law? This is why they want to control the law and are afraid of those that implement it. Good interview VLAD .. proud to be a subscriber of your channel.

A group of white men threw a American flag and pole eagle thing into a blk man chest. And beat him him I think just for being black. He died recently. nothing happen to them white dudes it was before Celtic bball game. It Shook the country. As crazy as it sounds, the south much safer. At least you could own a gun and some land. Up north not case and still not the case. New York a good example of that. Please look. www.wbur.org/npr/494442131/life-after-iconic-photo-todays-parallels-of-american-flags-role-in-racial-protes
