Re: Barbados: White Rasta director of African Affa

The few of us who said that you need to learn something were in fact responding to YOUR statements about YOU not knowing about colorism, and how it is played out in the islands.

Your reckless statement about being afraid of whites is a contradiction of the fact that you know whites frequent these boards and several do understand this issue that you claim is so new to you.

In your response to my earlier post on this thread, you said:

"B. You make a good point about the idiosynchrasies of black issues w/in the Diaspora. After reading these posts, I've decided to study it more in depth and devote an issue of my newsletter to it.
C. I will gather information on the hue issue in Carribean countries, but I'm surprised that the confusion among non-white people could be worse there than it is here. It is bad in he USA, but you guys are operating like we did back in the 1940's/50's."

Then when I reminded you of this, you said:

“I have not encountered this hue-ism before. That is the information that I need to look into.”

Then you made this statement:

"Everyone has a right to speak about anything that directly effects them. Period."

I replied: "This is the point that I am making, as racism and colourism negatively and directly impacts on dark-skinned Blacks the most, and in general less so on others of lighter hue. It is understandable that dark-skinned blacks who can articulate these issues will speak out because it DIRECTLY AFFECTS THEM. Given the wealth of information available today, together with the fact the many dark-skinned Blacks can articulate these issues for themselves; they should be encouraged to the frontline to dealing with these issues.

He who feels it knows!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I can pull other links on this thread to show that much of this was explained, but you continue to make false statements about people implying that you should not comment because you do not know Barbados. Of course, you know you are not speaking the truth as the post was there for all to read and comment.

I am responding because this issue covers a whole range of other issues that have been spelt out here, and in that context if the guy understood these other issues together with the fact that more firm blacks resent whites/near-whites appearing as spokespeople for them, he would not have accepted the offer, and commit to serve the movement.

The woman who brought the issue to the site did say she wanted views on it, and I am quite sure she has your views as well as others.

Your ongoing site bashing attempt is more like you are peddling other pent-up resentments about the existence and expansion of this website and you are not necessarily interested in this issue.
