Lee, a small number of tea partiers holding racist signs should not be used to
mischaracterize all those who support the tea party movement as being racist.

Matthews himself who called for Tea Partiers to rip the racist signs out of the hands
of anyone who dared bring to a rally did absolutley nothing when Dan Rather made
a very racist remark just a few feet away from him.

I might also point out that a lot of African Americans are starting to join the Tea Party movement.
Allen West actually enjoyed strong Tea Party support. Here are a few examples of African Americans
who do not feel the Tea Party is a racist movement.

I feel that Chris Matthews simply missed used his words. Interms of post racial i believe he ment the first African American President. Secondly when he said i forgot he was black for an hour he ment that the speech was great and that the speaker didn’t have a color. He could have worded it better. So i do agree with Mr. Daniels. I watch his show and I would make the safe assumption that he is not racist. I am African American and feel that this country has a lot more ground to cover when it comes to the racial problems. Not just with African Americans and Caucasians but all races. However i feel that we African Americans need to realise that yes race does matter in alot of cases but we can still do what we need to do and get to where we need to get. The up side is just like any problem facing it and dealing with it is the only way it will get resolved.

Hey Arclight69, you need to learn how to spell. Your gibberish makes absolutely no sense! I think you are offended by black intelligence. Your insecurity is apparent.

Well I think the end of this readers statements sums up where their anger comes from. That has been [t]he design from the very beginning from these Caucasoid race. There mission has been to destroy strength and unity of our race. It’s very obvious that we African Americans will never fit in this rat race of a society designed and build with bloody hands. Yes Chris Mathews, another fine example of the true ignorance.

Dear Arcangel

I am what our society would call a white person. Being labeled as white or black I believe is not racist. The writer did not write the article about being called African-American. It was just strange how Mathews said “I forgot he was black for an hour”. What does that mean? I didn’t see any venomous words in the author’s tone…frustration? Yes. But just for the record, I have had the privelege of meeting, speaking with, and befriending many black people during my short time on this planet, and I just wanted to say that I couldn’t disagree more with your statement. I work at a social services organization that serves many homeless and low-income people, the majority of whom are black. Most of my co-workers are black. In fact, I’d say 80% of my time spent during the week is with a person of color. Many of my good friends are black and I wouldn’t be where I am today without their support and guidance. I can only speak from my experiences, but black people are some of the kindest, humble, most compassionate, funny, curious, intelligent, genuine people I know. Also, through my experiences, I have observed that it is not black people, but our very own white brothers and sisters who, in your words, “spew their venom” toward the black race. I cannot count how many times a white person has used the N word in front of me. It’s disgusting. I do believe that if the author had the choice, he would instantly extinguish racism (and this website) from the planet and focus his time on something like cricket or a game of squash. To think that black people want others to continue hating them is a little far-fetched, don’t you think? However, It is precisely because of people like you that this website, and the race debate must continue. Do you listen youself speak? Do you read your words? They are frightening to say the least. Please try to soften your heart. The world isn’t getting any bigger. Also, please read The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, as well as Autobiography of Martin Luther King, Jr. They are great works from great minds documenting the struggles of the black population as recently as 40 years ago…

I find the views expressed here to be as racist as any so-called white racists. Blacks are more racist today than the majority of whites and they spew their venom on whites to continue racisim as it suits their needs to proliferate racism. The elimination of recism does not serve the purposes of those who make their living in the recist world they continue to foster. When are blacks going to treat all other nationalities as equal by calling them by their ethinicity and american as in Irish-American, Polish-American, Spanish-American, Scottish-American, Italian American, German American as the term used for all blacks is african-american. This does not describe all blacks but is used as a universal term. However other ethnic groups are descriminated against because their ethinicity is not included in their description but are labeled as whites. Blacks who cry racisism are hypocrites and hypocracy abounds at this and other so-called “black” sites. Blacks feed and take advantage of their own and will self-destruct as a result of this.
