The Things We Do For Love

August 30th, 2003

Juliette encountered the following statement in the midst of a barbershop conversation about applying for college:

“You gotta jump through too many hoops just to get an education! They don’t want us there anyway!”

Sheesh. I’ve heard that before myself. Good thing my mom mandated me and my siblings to go to college anyway.

Moving on, the comment in the barbershop led Juliette to comment further:

This is what it’s all about. They don’t want us there. Those hoops are just there to discourage blacks and latinos from applying to college. Yep, that’s right. No other group of people has to follow the same route when applying for college, according to this man.

So, because they allegedly don’t want us there, we should just forget about going to college.

Isn’t that the most stupid pile of feces you’ve ever read in your life? After all the Affirmative Action, the 20 points for melanin, the black-only dorms, the black-only graduation ceremonies, they don’t want us there. Even if it were true, so what? Getting a college education isn’t a popularity contest—although the Looney Left Liberal professors make a good impression of it being so (which, ironically, would work in a victicrat black person’s favor.)

This is the crux of the problem with too many black Americans. It’s not about jobs, education, money or housing, not really. Black people want you to like them, every last one of them; from Al Sharpton to Condoleezza Rice (okay, maybe not her).

Read the whole thing.

Semi-Related: My two cents on black victimization from some time ago.

Update: Will Leon raises questions related to Juliette’s post and the comments made by readers to it. Juliette responds (and honestly, the planned follow-up that I had in mind ran similar to her words, and that being the case, I will not comment further).
