this has got to be one of the most fucked up racist websites ever

"Some of the most violent murderers, rapists, and child molesters, are illegal aliens who work as day laborers."


i think even a lot of my family is a little racist. not so obviously racist, but more subtly racist-- like they dont even know it. like when they try to do impressions of people of color that they see on tv. "why do they talk like that" they ask and giggle. and they think its totally harmless -- but what they are really saying is "they dont sound like us"

what does it mean to have a southern accent? what does it mean to have a new jersey accent? and what about black vernacular and the history behind it?
what if you dont sound like educated white america? where does that put you?
