Q&A: Driving While Black, Dismissing Facts, YOUTUBE vs TV

[Rime247]

YOUR RACIST AND DONT KNOW IT. your generalizing a whole race out of the relatively few blacks you actually encounter. Think about it uncle tom. your black and you let people drive ahead of you... so how can you say black people dont do it? you do it and your black, plus you encountered probably .00000001% of blacks in the world. so use your head for a change.

[imdoinme]

u sound like a so foolish ...i was going to write a comment to dispute withyou but you are so lost and obviously have not found your true self so I will leave you in the hands of the most high...

[WattsFlyyest]

When I see a driver doing to much, mind you I live in LA so there is always someone on the road with ROADRAGE or a chip on their shoulder. I would rather them keep that negative feeling to themselves. You dont want to think that way torwards others! You should be commending the sista because theirs not that many out there that is willing to walk with a brother and get on the bus LOLs! Remember pedistrians DO and Always have the right of way except on the freeway!

[simply2ghetto]

you watch kimbo slice on youtube? i knew u were a bad ass. lol

[ForChangeMovement]

LOL... Well Im a boxing fan and former martial artist. Its only right...

[creativebrother]

Bad pedestrians come in all colors. I see it every day during my commute. And don't get me started on all races of people who drive in New York. The first time I got the finger from a driver was from a middle aged, sweater wearing pearl necklaced white woman in New York.

[ForChangeMovement]

Man, New York city is a whole other monster. Thats like a different planet compared to where i am. Nearly every pedestrian in NYC will jump in front of your vehicle if they want to cross the street. There is no waving people by up there... They are going to go regardless. LOL

[bluchicdotnet]

lmao@middle aged, sweater wearing pearl necklaced white woman

[MalcomAP]

I also believe youtube is worst than TV and let me explain because on YT you have many I mean many people acting a fool displaying ignoance in the worst ways possible so when TV executives see this they think that's what people like to watch but YT also shows that this world is full of Unintelligent people

[ForChangeMovement]

LOL... Most definitely... The America is filled with people who embrace ignorance.

[MalcomAP]

Yes I also agree with you in this vid I feel the same way when black people do that non-sense I feel like they trying to disrespectful in a technical way because it does give that U that feeling like they act like you were and have to stop for them or let them in front of you cause you owe them something it's not just you brotha believe me

[FuckYouMovement]

Yeah I can't stand black people, can you? Every black person is a nigger. I let them get in front of me and they don't even say thank you. Blacks need to get some sense- that's all you had to say man.

[MalcomAP]

Who are you?? Screw you buddy we can't stand you either your comment is so ignorant their is no need for a response and last time I checked I was replying to forchangemovement

[FuckYouMovement]

You spend almost ten minutes talking about nothing on your videos. That's why you average under 300 views everytime.

[ForChangeMovement]

Oh well...

[FuckYouMovement]

Maybe your videos are not made for debates. I will leave you alone

[ForChangeMovement]

I leave my videos open to debate. It just depends on the viewer. If they dont have the patience to sit through 10 minutes of me talking then why would they be patient enough to debate me?

[FuckYouMovement]

Let me ask a question. What was the point of talking about black people in particular not gesturing? Was this suppose to be comedy? You might say your not stereotyping black people, but you are. How is this positive FC?

[ForChangeMovement]

You should watch the Why I You Tube video to get an understanding of why I do this thing the way that I do.

Its not supposed to be comedy. Its just something that happened to me that particular day and i spoke on it. Its been a reoccurring thing.

Positive... Well how could it be made into a positive is the question. Again Watch that video...

[natashasworld]

Lastly, I haven't seen enough shows on Youtube to make a good judgment, but from what I've seen, I think for the most part, we are presented in a better light here then on TV. Yes, there are the ghetto fabulous show, but I've found so many educated and upstanding brothers and sisters in here as well.

[natashasworld]

Hmm, you pose some good questions in this video. As for driving while black.. I've had mixed experiences from all races. Maybe where you live play a major role?... I do agree with the dismissal of facts, I see that a lot. I come across so many of my peeps, who are too lazy to do research on a particular discussion or topic.

[ForChangeMovement]

I didnt think about location. Good point Natasha.

[ncmoonshine]

you-tube does two things for black image in america . it does show, like on your channel , that not all black people are irresponsible gangstas or thugs, but it also shows how some black people ( nbo or crackerschool) are incredibily racist or in denial about the sorry state of some attitudes.

[FuckYouMovement]

I think you're in denial. Youtube shows further proof for the image of white america. White people are the most racist people ever. You won't admit it because you haven't evolved as a human yet. How can you call Crackerschool racist? He makes videos about racists and you justify them.

[ForChangeMovement]

What are you talking about? Did i mention white people in this video? I have never even watched on crackeschool video... When did i call anyone a racist? Are you talking to me?

[FuckYouMovement]

No man! I'm talking to ncmoonshine or whatever that dudes name is. He has bias views. He condones white racists but he's quick to call forward white racist. It's his/her whilt guilt that's kicking in.

[FuckYouMovement]

*call forward black "racist"*

[ncmoonshine]

i noticed that some people do intentionally waste time by going slowly on purpose or pulling out in front of you , then going very slow or stopping to turn as soon as they pull out in front of you. or moving very slowly in line at the store.

[Twistysweet]

When I let people in front of me, they never say thank you (no matter the race). The only time I get a thank you, is when I let the big rigs in. I flash my high beams, once they get in front of me they turn the lights on and off to say thank you. Oh yeah, I am BLACK and I say thank you to everyone who lets me in, even when I am not driving. Please do not be so general.

[ForChangeMovement]

Ummm... I did have in huge letters that I did not mean all black people. The reason that these things are called videos is so you can get a visual as well as audio... So I realized i was being a bit general and corrected myself in editing...

[Deezil7]

I just did a RESPECT VID(I mentioned u in it) and I think I will do a response to this vid called Respect part 2 this evening.

[righteouslady]

with respect to the driving while black incident, your logic is off. It seems to me that you are the one in the position of power by letting him walk by. So maybe in his mind it's like 'what he thinks im suppose to kiss his a** because he let me by. Who does he think he is and then he thinks that I'm gonna rush cause he let me by. I dont need you to give me anything. I'm gonna take my time.

[ForChangeMovement]

LOL... He could have been thinking that. He could have been a lot of things. That doesnt mean that my logic is off. It just means that there are more possibilities. We will never know why he did what he did. i just gave one possible scenario. Again that doesnt make it any less logical...

[TheDreamReborn]

What you just described was the "power play" point he made in the video.

[chicago2005]

The Dick Reborn, also the dick that blocked me! Once again I see you are addressing my Afro American Brothers with your slander. You made a statement about Afro American Communities where "We" don't say "Tank You" when given the right away! I suggest you travel more. One place to start would be the Deep South where people in general are "Right Neighborly" much less Afro Americans! You are probably the same fool who would believe white are nicer the North! You have no point! Tank You!

[TheDreamReborn]

No wonder I blocked you. What a filthy mouth you have there. Again, you have listened to my video and taken what I said out of context. By the way, it's "Thank" and not "tank" and "Dream", not "Dick". That was cute though. I may just unblock you, just so you can entertain me a little more. Peace. :)

[chicago2005]

LOL, you matter not, your opinion matter not! The fact you engage every Afro American who has something to say truly matters not, and is more of a statement of who you are not! I don't critique my word usage for Judas minded nothings such as you! Obviously you missed the point on the whole "Tank You" thing you monotonous piece of camel excrement! Nothing new from the dick reborn, but I anticipate a new video addressing more of My people soon! LMFAO

[phantomburger]

I think there are many more positive channels on Youtube that are created by blacks, American, African, European and otherwise. However, it's hard too notice that without hunting for it because Youtube tends to "feature" only the blacks that are doing stereotypical stuff. Singing, dancing, acting a fool, etc.

[ForChangeMovement]

Could you list a few for us to check out please...

[love4stl4sho]

Two are choklitma and quietstorm9421.

[ForChangeMovement]

But i was talking about entertainment that isnt involved in uplifting. These channels you listed are trying to get out a message. In the video, maybe I wasnt clear. I said channels that werent like mine or forwardunitys. Im looking for Channels that are like TV in that they are only there to entertain. Now I know there are a few because i watch them. But my point is that the ones I tend to see tend to incorporate the same sort of nonsense that the shows on TV have.

[pigoprha]

i have lived around blacks & whites and i find dysfunction, drunks or uneducated people of all races act the same. you need to stop hatting on blacks , saying all blacks are like that, and start respecting the blacks who are kind and loving.

[ForChangeMovement]

Im not hating on anyone. i have a genuine love for all people. Im only pointing out the things that I have seen in my life experiences... If you look at my where im from videos you see me making statements about some of the negatives i have seen from white people as well. Its not about hate. its about what i have observed.

[ForChangeMovement]

I made it a point to post in big huge letters on the screen that this didnt go for all blacks.. HUGE LETTERS... I realized that when i said it that it made it seem as though i was saying all... Not the case. I already corrected myself within the editing process..

[pigoprha]

thanks for the corrections. that shows you have integrity. that tells me that you have experience the love of some beautiful black people. we have to start identifying the type of dysfunction in the person instead of the color of the person than we may focus on the solution.

[UnificationNow]

love your videos!

[yvette404]

i am in customer service and i find that my people treat me worse that everyone eles like i owe them something. i am gonna do a video abuot that too.

[bloodadvocate]

I prefer youtube....There is a much wider variety of entertainment on youtube...there are plenty of positive and negative shows...Yeah we see people acting a fool on youtube...but not only black people...people of all color are being portrayed in positive and negative ways...but this is a free country and I get to watch whatever I want on youtube...so I prefer youtube...peace

[no1butmenotu]

yeah...this is pretty much why i like youtube over television.

[bloodadvocate]

personal experience is limited...many people are closed minded and think they know everything...there is nothing wrong with going and picking up a book

[GradieGreen]

I think youtube is better than tv because there is more of a balance of us. But I don't even watch tv anymore after finding youtube because of the limited amount of knowledge you are able to receive on tv. On youtube there is no limit. You just have to know where to look.

And I'm glad you brought up the thank you wave. That pisses me off too.

[305636]

mad shouts, forwardunity. we famous now baby.

good questions.

[305636]

you were talking about the seinfeld courtesy wave. you're supposed to go past them and flip the bird.lol

[deborahbetty58]

feelings and expressing opinions and emotions in the appropriate way and at the right time. Simple phrased; a lack of social skills.

If you were to translate/transfer this personal sense of protecting the (perceived notion) of self into/unto suppressed groups, in contrast to liberated/self guiding socio- autocratic groups you will notice the characteristics of collectives versus communities. Okay, I poured my thoughts out, concerning your questions out again, does it make sense to you? Bless

[deborahbetty58]

okay inappropriate and wrong time

[deborahbetty58]

Sorry, the comments didn't show up ate first, so I posted it double. Here is the rest. By which somebody feels very quickly threatened by any sort of (feedback) responses, which are basically perceived as negative criticism. Emotionally it can even be experienced as getting' choked' and therefore life threatening. Then it is easy to imagine that, the person suffering from this emotion will lash out,

[deborahbetty58]

Are you referring to 'territorial head-butting disputes'? Maybe it is like this, when groups are suppressed generation after generation, it impairs the individual's notion of self-awareness, within the group. This basic sense of lack of self-worth, can however translate itself in a obnoxious attitude of self elevation, as to prevent the self from getting harmed, one way or the other. In psychiatric terms it is viewed as a narcissistic personality streak (disorder).

[Lethesunshine]

"Power play" happens with all colors. I just go ahead and try to live by the random act of kindness rule and hope it rubs off on someone else.

I'm so glad I subscribed to you. I feel like there is hope. Keep doing what you're doing.

I'm not going to give you all the credit...

Your parents raised a Fine Man!

Praying For Peace!

[mzsuzuki]

Good Questions..I remember going to a concert..and sitting behind this man who had this pimp fedora on..when he asked him to take it off so people could see..he did it with attitude..Dang I wasn't at the Pimps Ball..but I have to teach young brothers to speak in the morning..say "Thank You" etc. so that guy walking slow did it because he probably has been doing that same thing for years..Lord Have Mercy if he walks in front of a drunk driver.

[mzsuzuki]

In regards to the time issue..it might be a power play now that you mentioned it..a form of passive aggressiveness to be late somewhere when you know you must be on time.Those people who received their PH.D from the streets conduct their research differently from academia. They go by their gut, intuition, what they feel, it is not necessarily a fact, footnotes, bibliography type of thing unless it support what they feel.

[mariabentley]

Oh yeah..with regards to those who dismiss facts..that's just ignorance. I'd like to add though..that I take 'facts' with a tiny pinch of salt..since most 'facts' are adulterated, albeit, highly researched and probably more informed than the former.

[mariabentley]

Well, if that was his understanding of what 'power play' is..then he is disillusioned anyway. Personally..I may not gesture every time I cross the street especially if it's a pedestrian crossing .. taking into consideration that I walk across about 10 of them daily. I however, wont drag it out unnecessarily. But who knows..maybe he is disabled..physically..or at least mentally.
