I finally found a picture that explains how black men on DU feel!!!

This coming from a black person, so I assume no one will object.

3. I don't understand, so please elaborate

Why would black men feel like lawn jockeys on DU?

[politicaholic]

4. They feel like they're playing pocket pool in the dim light of a lanturn?

7. lol, really trying to stir the racial tensions today, aren't we?

First the picture about how white men feel, now the one about black men.

Of course, I'm not TOTALLY sure if you're being funny or serious...

11. The discussion of iconic images of race ...

is "stirring the racial tensions"? Very interesting.

8. Did you take a poll of all the black men?

Just curious.

[HamdenRice]

10. No but ...

I participate in the back channel discussions in the African American Group, which is kind of a running comment on the rest of DU. But as my last line states, it is my opinion. Obviously, I did not take a poll.

[Bluebear]

12. Actually your last line doesn't state it is just your opinion

And your header is very inclusive of all black men. I'm sorry you feel this way!

9. I certainly hope nothing I've written has ever made any DUer feel that way

Do you feel like that? Please post a link or an example. I've never seen any posts that should make anyone feel like that picture, but I'm not black so maybe I didn't notice it. I think every member of DU should be made to feel welcome. Even in progressive circles racism and bigotry have to be pointed out and discussed.

13. How black do I have to be to be offended?

I have some African ancestory fairly far back in my family tree. Does that enable me to be offended?
