They like to write blogs about injustice and unfair treatment, yet they are willing to write slurs on people in regard to their race.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8978152.post-63708551460473911792008-12-11T10:22:00.000-08:002008-12-11T10:22:00.000-08:00Can they not!Some folks see poverty and personal m...Can they not!<BR/><BR/>Some folks see poverty and personal misery as a way to make millions - go figure.pathickeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01051997614374510451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8978152.post-77712781265664909112008-12-11T10:09:00.000-08:002008-12-11T10:09:00.000-08:00As a blood member of the Davis family, I find a co...As a blood member of the Davis family, I find a comment you make in your blog to be very offending..."Allison Davis, who is very white, was made to appear to be Mayor Daley's African American link to the community. Rather, Allison Davis, who is very white, was Barack Obama's Law boss."<BR/><BR/>Say what you want about Allison and Cullen. I am a cousin, so I do not know the facts in relation to their business and political lives by ANY means and am in no position to comment on them. <BR/><BR/>However, what I DO take offense to and am able to comment on is your extreme ignorance in relation to his race, and your accusations that just because someone looks "very white," they must be completely white. If you actually met our family, did research on our Allsion and Cullen's family history, you would learn that Allison's hertiage is actually mainly of African American. We are a mixed race family who takes great pride in our heritage. My family has faced oppression because of our background. My grandfather and his brother (Allison's grandfather) rode on the back of the bus. They had their family farm taken away because the banks wouldn't give loans to "coloreds." The only reason they needed the loan was because the KKK scared all of their workers away. My grandfather was the head academic researcher on Brown vs. the Board of Education and was a founding father of the New Negro Alliance. Allison's father was a famous black anthropologist who fought against bias in testing against minorities and the lower class: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allison_Davis. Additionally, my own immediate family has continued to endure racial profiling and slurs over the years. Do you know what it's like to have a loaded gun put to your head by a police officer in Washington D.C. during the Civil Rights Movement because you are mixed race? My father could tell you.<BR/><BR/>I find your "very white" emphasis to be prejudiced and down right insulting. In fact, it is very obvious that you were trying to use that as a bash on Allison.<BR/><BR/>Do not insult our hertiage and, if you are going to try to "report" news, then know the facts. <BR/><BR/>It is thinking like yours that sets this country back.<BR/><BR/>Looks can be decieving.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
