Question

Why do some people feel that blacks don't acknowledge their mistakes?

Answer 1

You say that the whole race is in the wrong because of what some have done. We are ALL human beings and we make mistakes, but the whole White race shouldn't be held responsible for what Michael Richards did and neither should the whole Black race be held responsible for what those Blacks did that the comedy club you went to. People just need to STOP looking at color, my skin color has nothing to do with my action and my words.

Answer 2

....I belong to the human race...the color of my skin has no bering on the person I am inside....

Answer 3

I think your question is silly. how can you generalize that all blacks think they're perfect? Have you ever meet a black person? Can you admit that your white race was wrong for calling some one a nigger?

Answer 4

I think you need to step back and think about what you are asking. First, a race is not wrong. Sometimes individual members of a race make mistakes in statements, or judgement. That applies to all races. I do not claim responsibility for a mistake made by another member of my race, and I do not assign responsibility to any member of any other race for something another member of that race may have done. Get over the race thing, and look to individuals as individuals, as I hope you would want to be treated.

Answer 5

Let's start by saying that no races ever admit when they are wrong. It has to do with pride more than anything else. The Japanese still haven't admitted their culpability for their role in the second world war. Besides Americans they are the biggest hypocrites in the world. Whites still haven't admitted the wrongs they perpetrated on the Native Americans, Blacks, Hispanics, and the list goes on. No race is perfect and each has their own skeletons in the closet. . . Being black has its advantages and disadvantages. As a race of people, Blacks can be the best friends, cooks, partners buddies, etc. Some disadvantages are that Blacks have to do things better and cleaner than other races. This mainly is due to the ones who perpetuate the typical stereotypes and cause decent Black people to have to work harder at eliminating those stereotypes. Two wrongs don't make a right and evil begets evil. Someone has to bury the hatchet first and step up to do the right thing. Things don't have to be black and white, but this is America and we make it so. Considering that America is the great melting pot, we still haven't transcended the racial lines that truly define Americans. Man up races, admit when you're wrong and most importantly, don't allow a repeat of history.

Answer 6

ditto what wil said. . . and that michael richards case is a bad example of trying to prove a point. Nothing like that has ever happened at Amateur night at the Apollo, and the Apollo is in Harlem, an all black area.

Answer 7

It's generalizations like this that are a large part of the racial discrimination problem.. . Say it with me now!. . Some black people ............... Some white people ............... Some Native American People ............ Some Asian people ....................... Some people call me the space cowboy ............ Oops. . See how easy that was to broaden your statement?. . Now repeat the mantra:. Ignorance breeds Intolerance. Intolerance breeds hate. Hate breeds violence. Violence breeds death. Death breeds no Night life.

Answer 8

Your question sounds pretty racist....u just made a generalization.

Answer 9

same reason whites don't

Answer 10

Whoa! I think us whites do it too! Probably even more than anyone else! Stop trying to push your ideas and racist views on everyone. When people don't have proof and make blank statements intelligent people see them as ignorant. So I'm not calling you stupid but maybe you just don't realize that you SOUND like you are. Also just because you had an experience doesn't give you the right to to check a whole race off as bad. That is very immature what are you five? Give me thumbs down if you want but I hate racist with a passion because I don't like stupid people and you have to be stupid to be racist. Not everyone is the same so go cry in your room and shut the _ up!!
