  • Coming from a young latino, I feel that the problem is the lack of positive male role models in the black community? I feel like young kids coming up don't have people outside their fams to look up to besides Rick Ross and Weezie.

  • Hey, how come it's ok to act like Malcolm X but not like Dr. Marti Luther King. You got mad because you thought it was disrespectful the way the personthought all Black people were like 50 cent. I think it's just as wrong to tell people to act Black. What's wrong with Dr. King by the way? He's a great example. He did a lot for Black but he did alot for all his brothers and sisters and he didn't abandon them because they were a different color; in fact, he brought everyone closer together.

  • It's easy to feel ashamed of being black nowadays! Look at the level of ignorance, fucked up priority and the love of more ignorance that the majority of us cling to! We care more about money, sex, drugs and homosexulas than finding ways of bringing up our community and that's nothing to be proud of!

  • #TEAMiftheydontKNOWtheyWONTkno­w.... str8^ gr8t video

  • She must have that they said act like a nigger instead of act black. BIG DIFFERENCE!!!!

  • just who the fuck are you to tell somebody to act like marcus garvey . when your dumb ass is having trouble disguising your ghetto character. so when the chick does what you say (like a slave), does that make her black.......????

  • Theres only one race, the human race and I think more people are realizing that. Differentiating people based on skin, eye, hair color is moot. The system that our world is has of inaccuracies and promotes alot of hate and ignorance.

  • To me it sounds like certain blacks body language tries to be that of a white person as in not knowing their history and mocking only the current bad examples of it.

    To me acting black means acting like classic bluesman types or like what you saw in the old days. What I see today, I don't know what that really is, but people coined it "Acting Black".

  • You gat my support brotha, 50 strong, homie,.

  • I feel if we can save our kids today we could have a future.  But, what kind of future do we want as Americans?

  • Comment removed

  • Why can't we just act like Americans?

  • Well, Africa is accepting immigrants. In Africa they have children that are more likely to eat dirt then here in America. In Africa there are some people that kill albinos because of the superstitions. Aren't you glad you are in America?

  • Furthermore, if you dont associate rap and etc with "being black" why do you associate her looks and manners with "being whtie"........sounds a little stupid to me.

  • People have always labeled me as "acting white" and it was because of what i just listed. Never did they give me a history quiz, because chances are they would fail miserably themselves. They would say " why you like that or do that, black people don't do this"....and so on and so on. "what's wrong wit your voice? You sound like a white girl". Had nothing to do with history mroe to do with what they saw. So no your comments are not accurate.

  • very few fit into that category. I know i will get alot of hate from my comment, but its the honest truth. And sometimes the truth hurts.

  • I have been to 100% black events and drama, gun shots, always occur. i thought it was just the media painting us as more violent than us as a whole really are, but TODAY alot of the stereotypes are true. Blacks do no value education, they have high crime rates whenever present, and the list goes on and on. I am proud of my past, but def not proud of the present. Why should i support the negative behavior of the vast majority of blacks. I love classy sophisticated blacks, but honestly

  • i am actually very proud of my history and my ancestors, i am just dont like the behavior of the vast majority of blacks today. If all the role models you just listed today were alive i believe they would disappointed with the vast majority of blacks. I feel bad that they died for blacks to act a fool like they do today. Not all, but lets be honest the vast majority

  • So i really dont blame her for acting the way that she did, she was probably being sarcastic because you assumed she was "acting white " based on her likes, dislikes, and activities she chooses to engage in. Contrary to your statement, most "black acting" as you may say blacks consider "acting white as not have a passion for hip hop or rap, not speaking in ebonics, or just not having an interest in things black are SUPPOSE to like as they may say.

  • and prevent them from mingling with whoever they please. When most blacks label another black person as "acting white" it mostly because of the pitch of their voice, the way they dress, the things they like, or hobbies. Blacks consider specific behaviors as acting white, not knowledge...because truthfully most black who "act black" know less of their history than the blacks you label as "acting white". More commonly , you can labeled as "acting white" by the type of music you enjoy.

  • ok so let me get this straight so you came the assumption that she was not acting black and didn't know anything about her culture because of the way she talked and looked? But then you got upset that she tried to act the opposite of what you considered "white"? News flash, when most blacks tease other for "acting white" it has nothing to do with their knowledge of the past. Most of these people have a vast knowledge of history and very intelligent but just dont let it hold them back

  • so the black chick was not acting black. how do blacks act. so your message is act like harriet tubman how did she act. basically all colors of people have groups. gangsters or ghetto dicks who live off the system and take everything they can and blame everyone for whatever. or citizens who work for a better life for all by going to work and living a decent life. comments concerns

  • you can not act black, either you are or not.

  • WHY I HONESTLY SHAMEFUL TO BE BLACK SOMETIMES:

    BET

    Hip Hop

    Other Black people always accusing educated Black people of trying to be white

    Mountains of stereotypes

    Other Black people hating to see another succeed

    Black on black crime

    Weak Black family structure

  • Hollywood divorce! Imagine that the only thing you saw about black people was on tv, you would be ignorant as hell too. I say let's take this battle to Hollywood and the new sell outs(entertainers rappers actors singers) and shoot up some shit!! Fuck Hollywood!!

  • you should be ashamed of being a nigger because niggers are not actually homo sapiens, they are homo erectus'. you are a primitive, less evolved species than humans are, and you should have gone extinct a long time ago. the only way you have survived this long is by scavenging off of humans.

  • @GlitterXStarzz where's your source for that bullshit?

  • man i respect you're opinion but all of my black friends arnt ashamed of being black , if anything they love being black. i even have friends who are only a quarter black and 3 quarters white (or something else) and they are more proud of being black than anything else. peace

  • AMEN!!!!

  • look check dis..i go i live in da hood and they made the closest hood go 2 a white skool that was stright up racist ,,,now blacks movin in the skool its turning ghetto more fights and drug shit,,,,white moving out and white girls at skool look like why dey act like that ,,,cause they black ghetto niggas

  • EVEYONE IN THE WORLD IS FROM AFRICA and ppl don't respect that they always have to say no im this im that ur from africa it wat makes u who u are

  • idk, I dont think i can act like "a black person" im black but im a homo sapien over a color any day

  • You "talk black" just the way you say white people see you "talking black", like here you sound more like 50 cent than Malcolm X, so you're actually making this argument against your own stupid self.

  • never forget where you came from. Everytime you step outside you represent barack obama. If you make yourself look like an idiot your insulting the president. Make him proud...make yourself proud

  • @MRob18 FUCK BARACK OBAMA

  • @back2black314 Agreed! "Fuck him". People don't know these dirty secretes.

  • @MRob18 FUCK OBAMA. And not because hes black

  • just cuz im spanish doesnt mean that i have ten ppl in a small ass car and blast salsa out in the streets. Im in college because i know that my parents came from nothing and did everything they could to come to this country. Your ancestors were slaves in this country havent you forgotten this? Every black person in this country needs to go out and get theirs! Not by selling drugs but have more black senators, politicians, doctors, lawyers, etc. Its the only way to really overcome racism

  • @MRob18 we need our own country thats what we need we cant win in this system only sellout thats y barack can stand up for isreal but say nothimg about suffering of blacks all over the world

  • @back2black314

    SUP? u have your country. its africa. you cannot have your own state in the great usa. lol. u will get wiped out

  • @back2black314 YOUR OWN COUNTRY?I guess it will be another epic fail .Heard of Liberia?No?Thats what I mean.

  • @back2black314 If you need your own country then leave! Go "back" to Africa...go see how that turns out. I'm half African, and you better believe this...you would not survive a week! You better realize how privileged you are in North America and Europe. Stop living in a shell and wake up.

  • Im sick and tired of this stupid ass black culture shit. This man knows what he is talking about...stay true to your roots. But you dont have to be a thug or a gangster to do it! Honestly white ppl would be more accepting if you guys present yourselves better. Imagine ten white ppl that look like skinheads walkin down the street...how would you feel?OK then thats how you guys come off to whites(im spanish btw). Im in college, latino, and proud. Do somethin for your ppl and educate yourself

  • SPEAK BROTHER, SPEAK

  • AFRICAN POWER,

  • i think the whole blax issue between the sexes is a wash, a wrap, its' game over. the frustration that we all r experiencing & illustrate n these pathatic vids is evidence 2 the fact. u can finally go n get u a white gurl, blax man without any guilt, 4 there is no longer a blax community, just a bunch of negros.

  • It's truly a very destructive cycle, yet as much as anyone says that it's a problem or addresses the issue i would have to say that there is really nothing more that could ever be done until black's experience a problem that they cannot ignore and we are on the way to that very issue VERY SOON

  • A little. I mean when im on the bus/train and there

    are a group of black teenagers and alot of white ppl and old white ppl (who i get nervous of cuz im medium brown) Making noise screaming on the phone I saw so much stereotypes right there and all the whites r looking........ looking at me giving a look

    I am pride but Im ashamed because of the stereotypes I wanna bleach my skin

  • Not like ashamed, but more like sad. yes.. Sad...

    Sad because there is no way out for you... The only life perceiveable for some black people is a history of oppression. Why would'nt I want to forget all of that and just live life without conspiracies and conflict... Sad... because many african americans are just a social creation of their history - a continuation of the experiences of otheres in the past... That's all!

  • This is all about association. There is a specific persona associated with white people and black people. It includes how they speak, dress, what music they listen to and whatever. If you are "acting white" you are imitating characteristics that are typically associated with white people. The same goes for people who act black.

  • There is no such thing as acting 'white' or 'black'.

  • i get told i "act" white because i dont speak the slang or wear clothes that are 4 times my size. My personality has gotten me a long way while my "thug" friends are still flippin burgers or unemployed or pursuing unrealistic dreams. How do you act a race? I think its a bunch of bullshit there is no way you can act a race. I act like myself. Like I tell my friends if they dont like me for who I am then they arent my real friends, Sorry i was brought up propererly i wont let it happen again

  • you are not alone. I've been called white washed, sell out, oreo, its crazy. and to be truthful, I rather have white friends. my white friends have always been there to help yet I call on one of my own, and its a coin toss. So why cant I stand black people, because they cant stand me.

  • no you must understand its not just black people its certain people and who said you dont like all blacks or if you like all whites did you meet them

  • I get were your coming from, no doubt. but at the same time, Blacks are more willing to put you on the spot and try to punk you, while others will ask why you act this way, they give you a chance to explain, to state your case. but I can only speak for myself. Dont get me wrong, I have black friends and all but 2-3 are truly friends. but i have always wanted to meet black people with real goals. I may not agree with all you say all the time, but I hear and see what you trying to do. Stay up.

  • real talk my brotha

  • Back2Nigger314

  • real talk, you CANNOT act like a race, if someone is true to who they are, that's fine, there is no such thing as acting black or acting like anything else, black is not a character, it's tied to genetics and African ancestry, not character. When people think of acting black they think of all the stereotypes because that's what's mostly being put out there on TV, the news, BET especially; these are to blame for the stereotypes we have to face.

  • thank you I tell people this all the time. I get told that i "act" white. I am who I am whoever doesn't like it fuck 'em, I'm not here to impress them. I may "act" white but I'll beat an ass like a "nigga"

  • you can't act like a color

  • many blackpeople working for the whitegoverment with dreadlocs in thier hair and they dont even know the meaning behind dreadlocs or even blackhistory. everythings a fad with black people

  • You are correct.

    Black People in America are educated and expected to behave like Europeans.

    The truth is you can't nor should you.

  • You are my Brotha

  • why can't people just act like themselves?

    you're talking crap you don't tell white people to 'act white' you don't tell people to behave a certain way because of their skin colour. We would just be walking stereotypes.Its sad how you feel like you have to be a certain way or look up to certain people just because you have the same skin colour as them.

  • u have to know yourself b4 u can be yourself and thats the truth but the comment u made sound crazy to me since white people want us to be like them

  • i sound crazy? to me you sound very paranoid. could you give me an example of how exactly they want us to be like them, because i really don't see it.

  • So your against intergration, are you against mix marridge. You cant ask someone to ACT black becuase that would be acting and not genuine, I agree she should know more about her people history. I understand thats its disgusting that a black girls idea of acting black is to act like a gansta, but you cant blame her for intergrating with white people or "acting white" as you put it. Should Bob Marley act more white as he was half White, Ovcourse not.

  • @Asapoo there is research that say bob dad was mullatto not white and his father never gave a fuck about him Y CAUSE HE WAS BLACK i dont even know why u brought MARLEY up he spoke for BLACK PEOPLE AND U CANT DENY THAT most of all his song not the commerical love song that all the white people know listen to SLAVE DRIVER thats me comming for dat ass

  • as far as im concerned the only good white man is one lying in a puddle of blood with a bullet through his muthfuckin head..... why you be apologizing for the white man who enslaved us??

    you an UNCLE TOM

  • My brother! I have been watching several of your videos and I swear you have been so many things that I feel and say all the time. Thank you for being real and sharing your knowledge with our people.

  • Bro you is real....I just watched a few of your vids....keep bringing that knowledge....peace bro
