The National Council of La Raza... http://www.nclr.org/ "Private, non-profit, and non-partisan organization focused on reducing
poverty and discrimination, and improving opportunities, for Hispanic
Americans."
No offense, but isn't this just the NAACP for hispanics? Doesn't the CP in NAACP stand for "colored people"? Arent hispanics, technically, colored people? I mean if whites, I mean caucasians, aren't colored people, doesn't that make all other people colored? Isn't white a color? If the CP in NAACP stands for "colored people" doesn't that make NCLR redundant? Or does the NAACP need to change it's name to something more descriptive, like the National Association for the Advancement of African Americans. They could be the N4xA (N 4 times A).
Isn't it odd that there are so many organizations in this country that are supposed to focus on reducing poverty and discrmination for certain groups? If I were to start an organization called The National Council for Advancement of Caucasians how long do you think it would take Al Sharpton to call us a bunch of racists? I'm not calling the NAACP of NCLR racists, but racism works both ways guys.
If what the liberals tell us is true, then if someone moves up in economic standing then someone else has to move down, so if the NAACP and NCLR are trying to move blacks and hispanics foreward who's moving backwards? Well, if blacks and hispanics are moving forewards then asians, caucasina, native-americans, jews, and pacific-islanders must all have to move backwards right?
See what I did there? I turned the liberals argument around on them. They say that for one person to succed in life someone else must fail in life, that it is a zero sum game. Well, it's not a zero sum game. Everyone can succed, it's just that some work harder and educate themselves better and therefore succed more.
If we are going to have an organization for the advancement of any thing, why the not the National Association for the Advancement of Everyone? The NAAE would work to ensure that equality rules the day and that those who struggle to advance themselves are not hindred because of their race.
BTW, there is an organization out there that claims that they stand for the white, er I mean caucasian, man. It's called the KKK, and honestly they are a bunch of mindless, biggotted, redneck neo-nazis. I despise them because they fear other races because they (the KKK) lack the intelligence to better themselves. BTW, I am a white male. I am not going to even bother trying to make the point that I am not racist, I live it everyday, my actions speak louder than words and anyone reading this is going to form an opinon of me long before they understand the point I am trying to make.
One last thing, La Raza means "The Race". Which one, I don't know. The Hispanic Race? The Human Race? The Daytona 500?
Let's put an end to all this "race" crap shall we? Who cares what color you areudeserve to succed as long as you follow the rules and work hard you desrve to succed.
