I have to disagree. I understand and agree with the first part of your reply. But strongly disagree with your statement that I need to grow more. Personally I dont care what race someone is. What I said is TRUE.. If you want racism to go away stop segregating everything. If I started something like ATL White Pride I would be called a racist.. Right? then why isnt this racist? BTW thanks all for the negative ratings. Im sure you thought I was a racist. Try looking at it from both sides.
Just b/c it doesn't have the word white" (as you suggest) doesn't mean that it does not cater to that race via music, organized events, etc. Sometimes no label has many implications. Perhaps you will never understand because you don't experience it. But, don't discount others' experiences just b/c you may have had pass privilege. And BTW, I didn't even rate you. You say you don't need to grow, but then you make an assumption like that with millions of people on youtube.
This is not about being racist dude .. This is about black gay men coming together and embracing each other. I know alot of my friends we go to white clubs and prides but when we wanna see nice black men we go to black pride..... Racism will never cease in America even in places Chicago NYC LA Houston Dallas all the major cities they all have black prides.. This cultured even has nothing to do with racism.... You will never mexicans embracing indian culture or any culture etc
Mobi2525, When historically you have been excluded and treated negatively due to stereotypes/false facts, you begin to take pride in who you are because you too are human with the right to be here. You ignore those who speak badly and create your own things devoid of the negativity. ALL parties must make efforts to reduce racism. Stop media from reporting stats separately, stop shying away from things "too black". It's not about a label. If you think that, then you may more growing to do.

oh and BTW, blacks were not the originators of the segregation concept. This thing is deeper than a simple pride event. Much deeper...

Why does everything have to be black and white? Want racism to go away? stop labeling everything black.
