The Ku and the Klux are actually Latin for ‘The Circle’. It appears memebers of the klan wanted to continue the trend, so they spelled clan with a K. The name ‘the circle clan’ might refer to rituals the group performs as they are standing in spherical shape, or it could mean forming a circle to keep out certain types of people unlike them. For more info you could visit their website (have fun) http://www.kukluxklan.org/

There is nothing wrong with that. Dont think for one moment that you are limited to certain males just because of their ethinicity. Love (as well as Justice) is something that shouldn’t have anything to do with the colour of someone’s skin.

Ive heard ‘whites’ speak slow at times; most Ive heard have been those from Southern states such as Georgia (this is not to say it is limited in the south). Then i have heard Native Americans who babble. The speed of a persons speech could be dependent upon region they live in, up bringing, and just personality. Heres an idea: We especially dislike when people stereotype us, so lets avoid all stereotypes and generalizations from now on.

First of all, IQ tests are pish posh. The only purpose an IQ test serves is to show what type of schooling a person has had, their motivation towards learning, and perhaps their economic status. There have been several times the makers of the SATs had to take words out because some american school districts didnt even teach them. I do not believe the 100 smartest people were ‘white’. There were civilizations of color that were building empires before there were ‘whites’. Furthermore, using the color white to descibe people is about as outdated and unscientific as calling different cultures/ethnicities of people different RACES. There is only one human race. About those blacks who ‘acknowledge that their race is on average less intelligent than the white race’. They are as dull as you. Of course they would say that because they ARE the stupid ones! America seems to classify people who are of ‘African desent’ as black, so seeing as how Egypt is in Africa, it is very possible they could be called black. Besides, i have seen in many a text book Eqyptians being classified as ‘white’. Go figure that. Those black supremacists are no more ‘loony’ then those ‘white’ ones who say their ‘race’ is the supreme race…and they arent usually finished ranting without adding a few things you already listed above. What does that say about u? To aknowledge your question: you must be feeling guilty, because I have never heard of such. One could argue that it is lack of guilt which is the problem, and im not talking about past travisties. In conclusion: I hope people from different countries reading this don’t think all Americans think like you.

You would think someone who is 39 years old knows better then to ask something that a 5 year old might. Perhaps those black people you hear speaking loud arent really speaking loud at all. Maybe your hearing is sensative. This is for all yforum.com people who ask this question: (FOR THE LAST TIME) being loud has nothing to with ethnicity. I often wonder why people in my resident’s hall are so damn loud, or why they like to stand next to my window at 2 am and hold a conversation. 95% of the people who live here are euro-american. So does that mean that all euro-americans everywhere are horribly loud? Right now you are thinking ‘well of course not!’ My case has been proven.

Ghetto is a noun describing a slum where usually a minority group is concentrated. So using ghetto to describe something is incorrect. It is also derogatory. When people crack a joke about you containing that word, they probably arent complementing you. In short, that word mocks poor people all over the world, and we all should probably stop joking about it. Second, I didnt know you knew how all Euro/Euro-Americans felt. Im sure lots or people dont even use the word ghetto in the same sense you do. For those ‘whites’ who seem to be ‘ghetting’ to you, I would suggest you forget them as you would any other dummy and go on about your buisness.

Kwanzaa is not religiously-based. SO then it would have nothing to do with God. Kwanzaa is a 7 day holiday that allows people of African Desent to reflect on the passing year. It falls after Christmas because of this, and some people (like you) tend to get it mixed up. Therefore, I suggest you get the facts straight before you respond. I think God is (not would be) offended by your ‘BS’ (as you put it) for bashing a cultural holiday you know nothing about.

Name : Dominique, Gender : F, Age : 20, City : Houston, State : TX, Country : United States, Occupation : Scientist, Education level : 2 Years of College, Social class : Lower class,As an African American and Pan-African holiday celebrated by millions throughout the world African community, Kwanzaa brings a cultural message that speaks to the best of what it means to be African and human in the fullest sense. Kwanzaa is a seven-day festival celebrating the African-American people, their culture and their history. It is a time of celebration, community gathering and reflection. A time of endings and beginnings. Kwanzaa begins on Dec. 26 and continues until New Year’s Day.
The Seven Principles (Nguzo Saba) of Kwanzaa are:
Umoja (oo-MOH-jah): Unity. Success starts with Unity. Unity of family, community, nation and race.
Kujichagulia (koo-jee-chah-goo-LEE-ah): Self-Determination. To be responsible for ourselves. To create your own destiny.
Ujima (oo-JEE-mah): Collective work and responsibility. To build and maintain your community together. To work together to help one another within your community.
Ujamaa (oo-jah-MAH): Collective economics. To build, maintain, and support our own stores, establishments, and businesses.
Nia (NEE-ah): Purpose. To restore African-American people to their traditional greatness. To be responsible to Those Who Came Before (our ancestors) and to Those Who Will Follow (our descendants).
Kuumba (koo-OOM-bah): Creativity. Using creativity and imagination to make your communities better then what you inherited.
Imani (ee-MAH-nee): Faith. Believing in our people, our families, our educators, our leaders, and the righteousness of the African American struggle.User Detail :

And are you against multiculutralism? I donno about London, but Human Sacrifce, whatever ‘religion’ is illegal because it is a CRIME. And you can only be so educated about an ethnicity, because in reality, you cant be them.
