Genetically were all part of same the family tree....we all share common ancestors that stemmed from Africa.

Were all human and we all have a beating heart! why should it matter who is Black or brown in America?? All this video really did was just cuase more hate and predjustice. It's spliting us up into groups, the Black Group and White Group. It's time to stop BLAMING our gov or your neighboor regardless of their color. its time to reuntie rather than be against. My question is "Why do you hate me because im WHITE"

@1faithtruth No we should not give anyone land back..We should share this land both black and white, native American and American, jewish not jewish, woman and man equallu...Stop all this fucking hate against whites..I am white and I am all about equality..I hold racism very heave to my heart..I ask for those who hold anger towars whites to please try and find it your hearts to forgive us..Forgiveness will allow us all to move foward and build a brighter future for all kids..

Many says our drug dealers are blacks..Those in jail are mostly black. Well how many of those who were black seeked a job and are still denied bc of race..So whats there next choice to support there families..Drugs..I am tired of the hate , I am tired of the bigotry and as parents you hold responsibility to all of this..If you taught your child to love each other no matter who a person is they will grow up being accepting of others. it all starts in the home

post 3-As generations come about I am seeing both whites and blacks come together more then ever but there is still racism and the bottom line there should be none..White says black must get over the excuse of what took place decades ago. My answer to them is how would you feel if your grandmother was a slave or was spit at for being black..Our country has so many successful black people. From sports, to entertain, to doctors to lawyers to our President..All races deserve the same rights..

Post 2-People say blacks are not educated well lets face facts did blacks even get the same shot and opportunity at one time as whites.Watch Heaven falls and see the part how the little black girl would have to wait outside to get her food she was not allowed in the store..That angers me that our country at one time was like that..How can any person deny equality regardless of race, gender or creed..I am embarrased how a country which is suppose to be land of the free was in fact the total opps

[MsTheexecutioner]

I am white but I feel for African Americans in this country...I hold a tremendous heart for them and for what they had to endure throughout history...I dont live being white, I love being American..Color is just the difference of pigment cells..I cannot believe that ones pigment could have made such an impact for the live of so many..I can agree that for many especially in the south at one time once an African American was born they had no shot had a peaceful life(see post 2)

"Among men, blacks (28.5%) are about six times more likely than whites (4.4%)

to be admitted to prison during their life. Based on current rates of incarceration, an estimated 7.9% of black males compared to 0.7% of white males will enter State of Federal prison by the

time they are age 20 and 21.4% of black males versus 1.4% of white males will

be incarcerated by age 30. (U.S. Department of Justice)"

Blacks can't govern. Exhibit A - Obama

What about a show about the negatives side of white America,we will never see it will we?

these shows all have one purpose and its not to help the black community.Black people wake up,look deeper into the purpose of the media
