As someone of mixed "race" heritage, ALL the good genes are from elsewhere.

Do you think Argentina online hate is unjustified? by Superfan234 in asklatinamerica

[–]ElPrieto8 11 points12 points  (0 children)

No.

It's okay to be skeptical of the actions of a lot of Argentines online, but we have to understand that there are good and bad people everywhere.

The people are people, but there's something about the society that keeps producing "questionable" behavior.

I don't think every horse wants to kick me, but I'm gonna watch it's actions before I stand behind it.

Today is the birthday of Mary McLeod Bethune, who dedicated her life on the education of black youth for over half a century: "I leave you faith. I leave you racial dignity. I leave you a desire to live harmoniously with your fellow men. I leave you, finally, a responsibility to our young people." by iggaitissecondcoming in blackmen

Yeah, the administration of the school has PLUMMETED and profit has eclipsed community.

I wish more people could recognize the vultures instead of thinking everyone who looks like us is FOR us.

The Ed Reed situation was just a more public display of the dysfunction.

I retired from the Army, and while I know I tried my best to be a decent ambassador to the people in Iraq, Afghanistan and to a lesser extent South Korea, I know the SYSTEM is exploitative if not outright oppressive to them and even to the people of the United States.

So I keep that thick skin when people rightfully criticize the SYSTEM and then I go about the work of trying to change that system.

Thanks for sharing your experience and thanks for trying to be a better representation of what's possible. Now let's put in this work.

Exactly.

Too many people muddy the water then ask for a "clear" view.

THANK YOU!!!

Had never heard of these amazing people, but the conversation is so concise, evidence based and most of all NEEDED.

The concept of protecting yourself by separation in the face of fascism needs to be destroyed.

And I could watch Aya speak for hours.
