To me, this is just an example of 'subtle racism'...Not the type that shouts out 'NIG*ER' at a passing black man, but the type that........................:
- Questions a black man's right to move into an all-white neighbourhood
- Writes petitions as soon as a black man is appointed to a senior position
- Funds private investigators to find evidence - any - of inappropriate dealings as soon as a black business man becomes successful
- Incites resistance and disobedience - among fellow workers - as soon as a black man becomes a manager in the workplace
- Smiles at the school gates but warns their children to avoid yours
- Moves to another church as soon as a black family starts attending the same church.........................
Yes indeed, make no mistake - This is racism.
Trump questioned Obama's birthplace - now he questions his school grades. I wonder why he doesn't just come out and say 'I do not think a black man is fit to be president.' ? At least, we would all know exactly where he stands.
If Trump the Chump was not such a pathetic figure, I would be sad. However, I find him - along with most racists - comical !
Whenever my sons have told me about a racist comment/ encounter; I have always told them that the best way to overcome such comments is to do better than the racists. The best way to silence your critics is to outperform them. Score higher, Be smarter, Be more confident......Be Strong !
Obama is a living example of this.
Please watch his response to Trump:
or if you cant access the video, click HERE !
Classic ! Never get mad - get EVEN
xoxoxoxoxo
PS - Obama confirmed today (2nd May 2011) that Osama bin Laden has been 'kaputed' by US Navy Seals. I wonder what Trump has to say about that.....mmmm !
ha ha ha...i had no clue Obama was such a joker! lol. Nice response to Trump!!
ReplyDeleteTrump needs to be trumped on and I agree, a lot of people are like that because that is all they've ever known growing up. Some will marry a black man or a black woman or be best friends with one and think that it gives them the right to say anything. All so that they can Chip in I am not racist because am married to an African American. Boo! that does not mean you go through what they go through everyday!
ReplyDeleteHonestly, that's the best thing- i find Trump and people like him small, comical, and pitiful
ReplyDeleteAdiya
OMYGAWD!!!!that was uber classic!!!!Choi!!!SEE how trump was looking with that ugly hair of his....Jokez on u Trump with your stupid political propaganda!!!...Mchewww..
ReplyDelete:))))))
ReplyDeletemake im go jam head for transformer o jare!
Hahaha, I laughed so hard. I know Trump must have felt embarassed, everyone laughed except him haha.
ReplyDeleteServes him right!
Hahahaha.I love Obama. Donald T. must be a monkey, i think he's only jealous.
ReplyDeleteits about time someone put donald trump in his place. he was also questioning obamas intelligence...which i find ironic because he endorsed sarah palin.
ReplyDeletehaha i watched the entire speech Obama gave. He outclassed Trump for sure. I'm so proud of his confidence.

Just being in a relationship with someone can never make you know EVERYTHING they have been through/ go through every single day.
Thanks for that

ReplyDeleteI respect OBAMA
I don't see what it is about TRUMP
that i should respect!
lmao. Hopefully Trump has lost a lot of followers for the Republican/GOP. silly guy.
ReplyDeleteTrump is hilarious! And yeah, up Obama jare. He gave it to him good at that dinner, and then delivered Osama. I like what you tell your children, indeed that is the best way.
ReplyDelete"The best way to silence your critics is to outperform them. Score higher, Be smarter, Be more confident......Be Strong !" I love it.
ReplyDeleteBravo! Obama
What you teach your children is key... there'll always be racists and tribalists too. Infact there'll be people who doubt one's abilities even when like identical twins you have lots in common. The way forward is keep ur feet rooted in the ground and aim only for the top!
ReplyDeleteIn the wake of the Osama bin Laden killing, Mr Trump must be feeling very ashamed of himself right now.
ReplyDeleteBut seriously though, what exactly is his own with Obama? I never took him for a racist before this whole thing.
Naija mum, found this so interesting. racism is subtle and Tisha I go with ur comment.
ReplyDeleteWell Obama for another four years while Trump waits...

Re 'Trump has lost a lot of followers for the Republican/GOP' I seriously doubt it. A party that can have Palin as a candidate is likely to field anybody - no matter how silly their agenda is
Thanks

@Myne
ReplyDeleteRe 'Trump is hilarious!' True
What's is even funnier is that he thinks he's a credible candidate. His hairstyle alone should lose him an election.
Thanks sis

Really? even in church? Never heard of that..
ReplyDeleteOh well I guess racism will always be an issue when you no dey your papa's land...
I love what you tell your children> So true!
ReplyDeleteI especially loved how Trump's show, the apprentice was interrupted for us to hear Obama drop the news about Osama's death.
I love Obama's sense of humor.
Thanks a lot for being there for me these past few weeks
xoxo
Hey!
ReplyDeleteThanks for following my blog!
My mum always drummed into us that racism was born as a result of ignorance and that instead of getting angry, we should feel sorry for people that were so uneducated and I'm so grateful to her for that as I think I have a similar attitude to Obama's on it - Racism ain't my problem, it's yours. It doesn't change or affect me in any way.
I love Obama making light of the situation :)
Long time no post. Okay so it's only been two weeks, but that's a long time in blogville. Hope you aight.
ReplyDelete@Unveilinggold
ReplyDeleteYes oh...even in church oh
As you said 'racism will always be an issue when you no dey your papa's land' True talk.
The only challenge is that when I do return to my 'papa land' its tribalism I have to contend with :))))

I am sooo touched.
I apologise. The past few weeks have been hectic for me.
I have started a new job, and each of my kids has been involved in a major event (birthday, exams, church event) that has required a lot of organising.
Thank God things are settling down now because I seriously feel frazzled.
Thanks for checking up on me.
May blessings surround you and yours, in every way - everyday. Amen
