Indoctrination in our schools?

Matt D... what exactly does a black person sound like?

Stupid question, every single person reading this knows damn well that whites, blacks, yellows, every other damn race, sound different in our voices with very few exceptions. Talk to someone on the phone and you can almost always tell within 30 seconds what a persons race is. Quit trying to make him look racist.

Again, what is an "african american accent"


So are you saying that all people sound exactly the same regardless of race? Because that would be the dumbest thing I've heard all day

RLFebo, you talk about patriotism but them your a supporter of Obama?!?! wtf. Many of the Obama-supporters I am friends with are the people who commonly talk about how they hate america, and how dumb we are. (not my words.)

Your kind of a giant hypocrite to yourself.

Again, are you fucking retarded or just ignorant?

Awesome. White people calling other white people racist, no wonder this country has gotten so fucked up and the media loses focus so quickly when it comes to REAL topics.

Guess what, I have news for everyone, black, white, yellow, brown, we're all racist to one extent or another! If you say otherwise you're either ignorant or just plain dumb. Playing the race card no matter what color you are is just an excuse to drag the focus away from the real issue at hand when you either feel threatened or have nothing productive to say.

btw im removing myself from further posting in this thread, because you guys either dont understand what im trying to point out, or are just to try to make irrelevant points
Basically what you've done from the beginning?

Now, back on topic where this thread should have stayed all along, videos like this make me sick. Like it or not he is the president of the US and should be acknowledged as such, but he should not be held on this pedestal as our savior that his follows have made him out to be. Hopefully these kids parents are smart enough to make sure this stops. Politics have no place in school and honestly I think it shouldn't even be discussed since children are so impressionable and it would be nearly impossible for the teacher to present both sides equally without at least a little bias to one side or the other. Same thing with religion, it has no place in school since its all opinion based.

Funny thing, this video was in the "related videos" sidebar while watching the original video.

Kind of scary comparison, though I doubt history would repeat itself in this situation.

What Im saying is I've been around plenty of people, who are white and "sound" black, and who are black and "sound" white, as well as asians who "sound" mexican. So my point is, that by going off of purely voice is retarded. Call me ignorant or whatever all you want, but I wait to pass my judgements on people until I've interacted with them.

But for 95% of people you can tell their race within 30 seconds of hearing their voice.

For all you know that teacher was as Conservative as they come and left it up to the kids to think this song up.

Again, since none of you seem to have an answer to my question what does a black man or woman "sound like"? Whats the matter here? I mean if you can't describe it then so be it, but either way, to say someone is a certain race off of how they sound is ignorant. Its assumptions allllll the way around.

Ive been proven wrong to many times to believe this anymore.

I remember in my 5th grade class we discussed politics, and compared presidents, and asked us who we would vote for and why. I voted for Clinton, cuz he was the shit. I also said the pledge, with the word god in it, and also had moments of silence so the kids who wanted to pray could. Me being agnostic, I just sat and doodled. I dont see why everyone is so eager to strip one persons rights just to appease another persons. If an athiest doesnt wanna say under god, he can just have that censorship pause in his pledge, or say water, or some shit. But say the damn pledge. Again, all you people have to many fucking opinions of what is "right" and "wrong"

News flash,

Not everyone is Relgious
Not everyone thinks Jesus is real
Not everyone is a conservative
Not everyone is a liberal
Not everyone is an athiest
Not everyone is white
Not everyone is black
And most peoples opinions dont matter.
Like mine, its just an opinion, and opinion of tolerance. Tolerate the shit that irks you and revel in the shit that you enjoy.
