A fact that he is black doesn't mean that he can't be racist.

"Black" is no longer politically correct. My daughter tells me her sociology prof informed the students that even "a person of African descent" is not so politically correct either. Right now they propose "socially marginalized" My daughter asked the prof: "once sociologists are done doing what they do, are we still going to be allowed to use words"? :)

A vague term that actually sounds more offensive.
"What do you call yourself?"
"Black."
Then that is the term to use.
If anyone calls categorises themself as "socially marginalised" I think they'd better see a specialist about their inferiority complex.

We all have race, so anyone from any race can be racist.
But where has that ever got the world?

Black persons are usually racist towards other black persons eg Carribeans vs Africans.

Every country has its share of stupid people. It's just that some are louder than others.

There were over 20 inventors of incandescent lamps prior to Edison. It all started with Humphry Davy (Royal Institution of Great Britain) who created the first incandescent light over 70 years before Edison. The light was a bit on a dim sid but the firt steps were made.

In 1874 Henry Woodward and Mathew Evans (Canada) patented an improved electric light bulbs and patented the invention (US Patent 181613). The patent was bought by Thomas Edison who obtained exclusive rights to Canadians' patent. Edision made further improvements to the bulb's design and to commercial production.

Edison's contribution: he made an existing product better. Much like the white borsch I cook is better than my mom's. Pitty I can't patent a soup :)


Now look up Joseph Swan.

Oh, they (they damned sociologists) also deny there are human races :)
Reminds me of that criminal in Sweden a few years ago. A nasty fella, armed etc. Swedish media were broadcasting information intended to help the police apprehend him. They failed to mention he was black, because that could have been perceived as prejudicial on the media's part :)

thank you, that makes me a bot more comfortable. ;)

For years I was in humanities up to my eyeballs, and then one day I decided this is all just an art of bull$hitting (at least some of them) and I switched to computer science.

Going back to the original subject (again): We have all just demonstrated the one thing that causes racism and all the hatred in the World (Bask terrorists, Northern Ireland, Timothy Mcveigh, Yugoslavia, Holocaust, Iraq, Armenian Genocide, 9-11, Katyn, Mogadishu, Rwanda and so on, and so on...). It is all about this attitude "my people are better then yours, my sh*t smells better then yours." Well done displaying it for us today, my friends. And, to be truthful, I've participated in it as well. Just something to think about for me and for all of us.

I would think that putting all those conflicts in one category doesn't do them justice. What was your intention here?

Poles are racist just look on there views about people of colour and this proves this. I think most eastern europeans are like this. What makes me laugh if there country is so great why are they coming to England?
