NBA star LeBron James yells at mom to 'sit yo' a** down' when she tried to defend him after a foul.

that is a tremendous fight for Black men to wean themselves from their black mothers. Black mothers have been the ruin of many a young black man with their enabling and insecure approach to raising a black boy child.
Could it be they do it on purpose to get even with the Black man? Is this too a hold over from enslavement?
I think this was more of a reaction to LeBron's desire to be an independent black man, then his paternal insticts to control the woman.
interesting non the less and telling

yes there are of "any" race, but in other "races" the male is not demeaned as is the Black man in white culture. So his fight is even against his own mother for his "manhood."

Hey soulflower.. I didn't see it that way at all. He was protecting her in my eyes... she looks very small and she could have got hurt trying to get in between those men... He could have chosen to take the a@@ part out in my opinion but its a game and they are already fired up:) She was acting like he is on high school playing at the playground she should have known better.

My God, you really are completely infected with stupidity. Now you want to blame White people for the complete lack of respect Black males show towards females?
If White males are to blame then can you explain to me why Black males in Africa have sex with 6 year old girls because they believe it will cure them of AIDS? Can you explain why Black males have, for thousands of years, waged war in Africa and enslaved other Blacks, long before any "White" people got there? Can you explain why Black males STILL ENSLAVE BLACKS to this very day?
Bastion of civilization, indeed. I'm surprised people like you haven't found a way to blame White people for Blacks being Black. The next conspiracy you'll talk about is how Whites are trying to get rid of all Blacks by using females of other races to entire Blacks to mix and make more little Obamas. Hop to it son!

Lebron was in the right. The lady's son should know that there is a hazard of gettin' hit by the players if you are under the ring.I would've yelled at her to.

Don't be silly with the "crack head" comment. Of course I would have something to say about it if his mother wasn't there, but that ain't the case here.
I'm sure she provided for his needs and she should be commended for this, but that changes nothing as far as her psychological deep seeded views and feeling towards black men.
This is one unseen aspect of white supremacy that tears the black family apart.
Let me give you a real example. Where I live in the "south" there are young men here who have no motivation because racism is a PART..(please not the entire") of their reasons for not gettting jobs..however:
They don't really need a "job" because their mothers, aunts, female cousins, and girlfriends will feed them and give them a place to live becaue they are so "helpless", "confused" and just can't handle the big bad white man's racism. When they get tired of staying with one, they'll move to another and the cycle continues.(a remeant of the African extended family concept)...
but in THIS culture, with these systems of white supremacy, this is dangerous for young black men but black women, especially mothers, think they are helping by not allowing her son, who is weakned by racism, stand up..
That's is why I THINK James told he not just to sit down, but shit her azz down. It was a reaction to her "protecting" of this black man..
anyway, it makes no difference, people just think what they feel make them comfortable...
easy...

She shouldn't have gotten up like that and started yelliing, but what do you expect? She is obviously a "ghetto trudy" and she just stood up for him in the way she knew how. The man's name is LeBron for goodness sakes...How well versed in "ladies behavior" could she be? This is something that middle classed and upper classed women learn.
Lower classsed women usually don't have men to defend them so they are used to doing it for themselves.
She was just defending her son in her mind. He ought to have more respect for her.
He is the lowest kind of garbage and I intend to write him AT HOME and tell him so...

Hey again. How are you, by the way?
I just want to be clear: MY MOTHER is the epitome of "lady" and so are all the women in my family, save one. She never would have done that.
BUT I am looking at her background and this was probably her way of helping - however, misguided.
Also, I am sorry but I come from the school of "you do not correct your elders". Not even when they are "wrong". I was told not to correct teachers, older people, etc whatever...
So I have a hard time with this.

HE is ghetto. His name is LeBron. He needs to accept his background. Million dollar checks do not make class...not even in him. The "ghetto brawd" was his MOTHER, not some hoodrat wanting to hook up for the night.
If HE cannot accept that his mother isn't a "debutante" or something, then his issues go deeper than even I imagine. If HE is so ashamed of her, why doesn't he just have her stay home?
I don't care if his mother was drunken or homeless or a prostitute or a foul mouthed "hussy"...it is still his MOTHER and that is that.

At some point intelligence MUST kick in...so must the need to be independent and leave the nest. I could go live with my parents or stepparents today if I wanted. My grandparents thought the sun rose and set by my breath. Seriously, my grandmother would get a job, AT HER AGE, if she THOUGHT I needed money. Half of my family thinks of me as their little "baby". My mother STILL tries to hold my hand as we cross the street.
I am 36 years old and married, with a 4 year old and another on the way!
I have always been independent and if my family knew some of the situatons I had been in for excitement and whatnot, they would have died.
