why we will never get reparations as "black people"

<quoted text>Now just what the hell are you talking about?

We have become not a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic. Different people, different beliefs, different yearnings, different hopes, different dreams...all groups make contributions, but retain their identity. Colin Powell and Jimmy Carter made statements that were essentially similar in this area. This was probably in reference to someone saying their group made more contributions than any other group.

Negros owe whites trillion$ in reparations for all of the cities they have pillaged and plundered,the decades of a history of living on welfare and it's public housing projects,all of the free medial treatment they have received from hospital emergency rooms visits from gun shots wounds,stabbings, drug overdoses. Whites DO rule this nation and control most of the wealth and power and always will even if and when they are a minority like they are in Brazil,South Africa and anywhere else they abound.The negros and mestizos can't even control their own neighborhoods,these black and brown areas are loaded with a bunch of senseless ,out of control low IQ savages that butcher each other for "survival" over a $20 crack rock as they are more akin to an unthinking animal.If it wasn't so true,it wouldn't be so "racist" would it?

Well, I don't owe you anything, because I haven't destroyed anything. I'm above average in intelligence and I'm not on crack. I must be blessed not to have to pay trillions.

I agree, expect when you wrote R.Kelly was the best songwriter and stylist. I disagree w/ all of your dancers and Ne-yo. I also disagree w/ your poet. Cab Calloway definitely belongs as one of the best song stylist. The best dancers would be between Beyonce,(made the Dutty Wine famous in America) Shakira, and Rosie Perez, whom began to influence girls dancing like boys.(not sexual, but cordinated, tough dances) Aristotle is the best poet. Fiona Apple is the best songwriter or one of the best.

The only thing Blacks owe Whites, you can thank your lucky stars that we are not angry enough to pay you. And that is to kill all of you while you sleep for the crimes against humanity that you've committed. Fortunately Blacks are children of the light and hence so forgiving unlike you evil whites that are children of darkness, hence your evil ways and crimes against everything you come into contact with. Yes you deserve to be slaughtered while you sleep but fortunately Blacks will not pay you what you are TRULY OWED!

Naw. To me the best dancer would definitely be JANET aka Ms. Jackson of you're nasty,LOL. That young lady can move. Britney Spears wanted so much to be like Janet. She could never even stand in Janet's shadow.

Rosewood,

Rosewood how old are you...when it comes to dancers and music it would have taken me all day. I had to make it cut and dry. And some of the people pave the way for the artists you are referring to above. Let me give you an example. If there were no Jackie Wilson, and James Brown, there would not be a Michael Jackson and Michael Jackson, has influence Usher, Ginuine, Neyo, and Justin Timblerlake, etc... watch there dance moves closely.
Neyo, who's written music for Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, Britney Spears, Chris Brown, Rhianna, Beyonce, Mario, Mary J Blige, and rumor has it Michael Jackson, this kid is amazing.
I left out Janet and Jennifer Lopez who are also great dancers. And Janet has pave the wave for all these women who want to bring beauty and perfection to there perfomances. Beyonce, is my girl and one of the hardest working females today. But she cannot put a candle to Janet or Jennifer when it comes to dancing. Why don't you Youtube. And keep in mind. Beyonce, moves comes from the streets and choreographers, celebrities just gets it out there because they are performers. And Cab Calloway you're right. Shakira, is amazing with her Latin moves. But Fiona Apple Rosewood?
Check out R Kelly's credentials, and not what's going on in the news. And check out Nikki Giovanni, or Maya Angelou in your spare time. It's so many to name i would have been all day.

You sound like you are ready for the mother wheel and the NAI with that darkness/light dichotomy bullsh1t. If someone is half black/half white, what are they - dusk? What about 75/25? I don't think you actually believe what you are saying.

Maybe, but I think you focused too much on the present. This list takes into account a more historical perspective:Mikhail Baryshnikov, Fred Astaire, James Brown, Ginger Rodgers, Michael Jackson (if he always danced the way he danced in Billy Jean, he'd be #1) Donald O'Connor, Janet Jackson, Gene Kelly, Gregory Hynes, Russ Tamblyn, Buddy Ebson(Uncle Jed), Juliet Prowse, Ann Reinking, Cyd Charise, Leslie Caron, Justin Timberlake, chris brown, Sammy Davis Junior,Josephine Baker, Mary Tyler Moore, Isadora Duncan, Nureyev, Audrey Hepburn, Bebe Neuwirth, Shakira (in that order)

But it's so many before them who did not even get credit or was ever noticed. Fred Astaire, was so smooth, but what about Bojangles? I forgot about Bojangles. Cyd Charisse, Yes! Mikhail, Yes.

I'm responding because Dennis forgot Bojangles. Dennis saw a remake of the opera Hot Mikado (which originally starred Bojangles) which was a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta set to jazz and he even heard Sammy Davis Jr sing about Bojangles. Some guy even rapped about him and there was a special on PBS that he watched while checking emails. Because he needs to pay for the consequences of his action, it has been determined that he will be forced to listed to the full catalog of Paul McCartney and Wings. He claimed that being forced to listen to Wings violates the eighth amendment, but we have been assured by Justices Thomas and Scalia that it is permissible. We're even going to rebalance the sound to make Linda's voice more prominent.

Reparations? You can't give back something you never had. The land they worked belonged to their owners.

Wasn't freedom their reparation?

Don't distort historical fact. Most white Americans never owned slaves. It was a very small percentage of the country that held that not-so-noble honor.

Wrong! The land they worked belonged to the NATIVE AMERICANS. How can you own something that you stole and murdered for?

These kinds of replies are just plain stupid. We are here now and it is what it is. I'm not giving reparations to anyone, my family never has owned a slave.

Stop beating a dead horse and get off the pity pot. Take you own destiny in hand., Whnier!
