For years black conservatives and white supremecists of all political stripes have excoritated the Black community for turning on Negroes who "acted white"--although we didn't turn on Thurgood Marshall, WEB DuBois and others who acted whiter than white Maybe it was thinking white. Now we got Obama, the whitest Negro you could have got next to Wayne Brady. He is getting more hostility than a crip or a blood or Louis Farrakhan So I guess acting white don't impress WHITE people either If you ain't. Your thoughts, please. |

"Chris, excuse me, Thurgood Marshall and WEB DuBois "acted white"? Obama "acts" white!? Man, what is acting white - to YOU? You have this thang all messed up." Thank you. But remember, this is the result of bro Chris being the victim of state budget cuts. He no longer has access to the neuroleptic medication (clozapine and risperidone) needed to prevent such statements. What can ya expect..... |

NTFS: LOL! I'll play along... Chrishayden, wadaya 'spect? Obama is what he is. He was reared white, educated white and genetically is just as white as he is black. So there is very little "acting" white going on. More hostility than Farrakhan, I would not get that carried away -- at least not yet. Though a Brother in my office yesterday was really pissed off with Obamam about the absence of a public option in Obamacare. Oposition is mounting. |

Man, what is acting white - to YOU? "You know damn well what it is" What can ya expect etc. "Now this guy is a great example of THINKING white. You all know damn well what it is. It is what you do when you are around nothing but white people in white settings. It is how you do NOT act when you run up on three or four crips. It is how you do NOT act when you are at a family reunion with your "country cousins". It is how you do NOT act with your mamas." He was reared white, educated white and genetically is just as white as he is black. So there is very little "acting" white going on. "Did you just get off the boat or something? You still got bananas in your pocket? Or do you think I did? This is America, which it seems many Negroes, despite being here 500 years, know nothing about. First of all, the man is black. One drop makes you black. I did not make that rule. EVERYBODY follows it. He ain't white. He can only ACT that way. Now. Here is a man who has married black. Lives in a black neighborhood. Was a community organizer. You think he could organize the community talking like he did to the Harvard Law Review? He dropped all that and made lots of people forget it in his public presentations. Which was wise, seeing as how he was President of ALL the people and not just the Negroes. But apparently, this don't seem to work on a large number of people who look past that and see his nose, his hair, his skin and feel the vicseral hate and contemp well up in them. Many so called educated Negroes have thought we would make them love us if we talked white, dressed white, acted white etc etc and you all know what it is, quit playing. I remember that idiot, I think her name is Michelle Norris, she from NPR, saying on Hardball with Chris Matthews that after Obama got in all the little brothers were pulling their pants up and speaking properly and etc. I wonder what she got to say now. Now what do you have to say for yourselves? Apparently you can talk like an Oxford Don and, not only does this NOT impress them, it seems to inflame them. Acting white. It's being something you ain't now and ain't gonna never be. It's living in a dream world. A fantasy. Being a zipdamnfool. It's what we all do sometime every day if we want to get something from white folks. |

See Chris, it appears to me that it's You who thinks a person should "act" a certain way because of their skin tone. Sure, we all adapt to our environment when engaging each others in social activities such a those you mentioned. Maybe you should define how a black man "acts" and then we could compare the two. Put them is a similar situation and go from there. Does a white person feel pain differently than a black? Does a white person "act" differently when a loved one passes away. What about confidence and fear? How does a white man "act" when he experiences fear? Do they speak differently than us? Is it the choice of words or how they express them? I think you are stuck on how Niggas act. |

Carey I'm with you on this one ;-) Chris I liked your analogies "It is how you do NOT act when you are at a family reunion with your country cousins"; that was a good one. I'm sure if you delivered that last tirade, verbally, in front of an audience in Harlem, you would have gotten a standing ovation... But I think Carey makes a good point. At least in this sense: when someone says someone else is "acting white" it is not clear what that means. Cause when I was a kid anyone Black who spoke proper English, liked rock music, had white friends, studied, dressed raggedly was considered an "oreo" and was "acting white". People often assume acting Black is a code phase for acting like a "nigga". For the sake of clarity would you describe what acting Black means? Also can non-white people act Black in your book? |

They had a "Que" on the WH lawn and put a garden and a swing set. He plays basketball. He goes to Bens Chili Bowl and eats hamburger and I suspect ribs. He smokes. He shakes brothers hands..where ever they are..oh and I believe does the "dap" thang. I'll be back with more..Im sleepy |

The whole inane idea creates a bonanza for definitive questions, subjective answers and questions of -who decides, who defines, what is the exact standard and who is the judge of who is "actin' white" or not. Initially I laughed and decided not to respond until I saw your noble attempt to respond to Chris's underclass coon culture definitions. Much props to you bro for even responding to such a simple minded benighted idea. "I think you are stuck on how Niggas act." Bingo! On the money. Unfortunately, this is all bro Chris knows. His fish bowl world is limited to hood rats, drive bys, crack houses, screams, gunshots and police sirens and helicopters all through the night, junkies and five dollar crack head street walkers, the blight of gang graffiti on every vertical surface, violent crime infested projects, a social services and welfare dependent culture, absent fathers, illegitimacy and baby mama drama, unintelligible ebonics and broken English, illiteracy, gang bangers, drug dealers and corner winos. This is his world and he is fiercely proud and very defensive about it. And any black person who refuses to recognize or approve of this menagerie of social pathology and nihilism -is suspect of actin' white. And for black people who refuse to intellectually cosign for his impoverished pathological black world of Bizzaro, he considers them race traitors and enemies of da hood. So, they are subject to his scorn and derision for actin’ white. But yes, you are correct, his litmus test for "black authenticity" is determined and measured by the "street nigga model". |

I think you are stuck on how Niggas act. (Wrong again. I could not be and survive one second on the Northside of St. Louis) I'm sure if you delivered that last tirade, verbally, in front of an audience in Harlem, you would have gotten a standing ovation... (Dammit! I KNEW you had soul! If only we could bring it out!) Cause when I was a kid anyone Black who spoke proper English, liked rock music, had white friends, studied, dressed raggedly was considered an "oreo" and was "acting white". (I keep hearing this bushwah over and over again usually by people who was coming on like Bull Connor but thought they were Malcolm X. Look above. Who could have acted more like DuBois, wearing kid gloves and spats and three piece suits. Speaking better English than the King of England. Yet he was black clear through. It is all about ATTITUDE. You can do all those things and be as Black as Nkrumah.) For the sake of clarity would you describe what acting Black means? (Acting Black covers so many myriad behaviors and stances I don't have time or room for it here. Like the Supreme Court Justice said about porn, "I know it when I see it" Acting white, however, is easy-- Usually it is doing all those white behaviors while thinking, like racist white folks, it makes you superior. It is ATTITUDE. Not Phatitude) Also can non-white people act Black in your book? (I have seen many ACT black. But they can't BE black.) |

That is established. He ACTS white--as do we all when we are in similar situations. I just think we should admit it. lets his wife wear whatever the fugg they want. (This ain't a good one. Michelle tells him what she is going to wear, and he tells her to put it on. Please. If you feels like it. Sugarpiehoneybunch. Just like any other red blooded all man husband would) They had a "Que" on the WH lawn and put a garden and a swing set. He plays etc. (Black people know how to act BLACK as well as white. They must. They know how to act CHINESE too, if they got to be around any) |

Carey, I have to commend you for even responding to such an asinine and mindless thinking (actin' white!). etc etc etc (Wrong again as only an Uncle Tom can be. If being an Uncle Tom is so bad, why do you feel guilty about it? I probably see more white people in a day than you see in a week. And I act white around them, too. Otherwise they feel uncomfortable and might call the cops. Only difference between me and EVERYBODY else is I admit it. Go on. Admit it. You act white. All the time. Every day. Sometimes you act white all alone on the toilet, practicing up, and you laugh at how much you sound like Chevy Chase or somebody. Admit it. It will do you whole bunches of good! |

Truth be told, we know what "acting white" is. But, President Obama does not fit that sterotypical image. As LiLi pointed out, someone that was trying to "act" white wouldn't display a pecan of the walk-talk-swagger-dress-eating habits-friendships-humor-company-reading taste-openness, etc, that President Obama displays on a regular basis. I'll tell you what, if he did "act" white, we wouldn't have all these crazy white folks acting like a damn fool. In their eyes, he's acting just like a black man, and they can't stand that. They might have thought they had a black-white man but the speeches fooled them. At times he may have used words just like their uncle beaver. President Obama is a black man, period. It's all about perspectives. |

Chrishayden is implying that a black person who "acts" white is playing a role. But it's conceivable that what is considered acting white is the natural way a black individual behaves and in order to come across as "black", he would have to put on an act. So how authentic is the concept of acting "white" or "black"? Hill-billies, red-neck peckerwoods and trailer park trash folks are white but they do not speak or act the way "other" white people do. The lines are becoming blurred, and "acting white" is on its way to becoming an obsolete term. Obama is a cross between both races and that is the main thing he has going for him. |

"The lines are becoming blurred, and "acting white" is on its way to becoming an obsolete term" I don't know is the term will ever become obsolete because if the shoe fits, there will always be Uncle Toms and Negros that aspire to emulate white folks. As been noted, we do have our on culture. And within that culture we can't help but take on certain characteristics, good and bad. Who can deliver a speech better than a black man? We have the best speaker at the top of the world! He has a jump shot that looks like a white boys. His speeches comes from the heart of a black man. Like Chris has also noted, "acting" is one thang, "being" is another. Some Negros want to be white. Now we are crossing into the zone of the Uncle Tom. Lets be real, if a survey was taken amongst blacks, I'd bet most could identify a person that acts white. Although it's easy to jump on Chris and stay entrenched in our our opinions, we know what acting white is all about. Again, the question could be asked, what is acting white or what is acting black. Well, like Chris noted, we know it when we see it. That Uncle Tom walk and that Uncle tom talk might not be present all the time, but we can smell it when it raises it's foul head. I am not agreeing with everythang Chris said but on this note the boy is on target. |

"Now this is a Nigga. This is a coon! This is a bizzaro negro acting white or something like that?!? This nigga is crazy!" Wow!!!! Whew! Where did you find this fool??? Yep! You're correct. He is a coon in a suit. He is no different than the drive by murderous Negroes who shoot and kill four year old girls in their stupid attempts to regulate on another rival street coon. This pathetic toxic mouth piece for white conservatives has set a new definition for a wannabe-white suit shines. Sorry, but I can't say it any other way without compromising the truth. And I never thought I could see another brain damaged Negro who could rival Rev Jessie Lee Peterson. Everyday is a learning lesson...... |

Will you ever be able to rise above your subjectivity when it comes to blackness, Carey? You apparently have convinced yourself that acting down-to-earth is synonymous with being black, and your hyperbole on this whole subject is a bit much. Black men don't have a monopoly on making good speeches or shooting hoops or exuding swagger. Black pride is one thing, but blind pride is another, -a manisfestation of overcompensation that is rooted in insecurity. BTW, is the ineptitude Obama in displaying on the job he has been hired for, an example of "acting black"? And I still contend that Uncle Tomism is in the eye of the beholder. So, as usual, we disagree. What else is new? |

"Black men don't have a monopoly on making good speeches or shooting hoops or exuding swagger" Again you've slithered into the smallest crack in which to plant your argument. Who said anything about having a monopoly?! Please read my post again and come back with an apology. AND, if you didn't notice or just wasn't looking, I did not say we had the best jump shot? What the earth does acting down-to-earth have anything to do with this?! Cynique Cynigue, you are really starting to show your strips. Stop acting white, you're starting to see things that just aren't there. See, you just made Chris's point. I say "good speech" you saw "swagger". I say "shoots like a white boy" you saw "an inferior jumpshot". The whole premise to your argument was messy. You even flipped your normal flapjack by adding this: "BTW, is the ineptitude Obama in displaying on the job he has been hired for, an example of "acting black"? Now tell me Miss Uncle Toms gatekeeper, WTH did that have to do with this conversation. You're up to your same old tired tricks of wandering off to la-la land. You better stop it before I put Diva 904 on you. :-) It appears as if she ain't trying to hear your mess, I just tolerate it. Much like a leaky old faucet. |

"Cynique Cynigue, you are really starting to show your strips." Oh, really? Do you mean "stripes"? What "strips" am I showing? I'm certainly not seeing things that aren't there when I say your chronic inability to discern that you are misspelling the simplest words says a lot about your awareness. Nobody could ever accuse you of being detail-oriented. "Stop acting white, you're starting to see things that just aren't there. See, you just made Chris's point. I say "good speech" you saw "swagger". I say "shoots like a white boy" you saw "an inferior jumpshot". I'm stunned. Good Lord. After making this incongruous statement, you have the GALL to accuse me of reading things into other people's words. You're hopeless. The image you have of yourself as being so "hip" and "in the know" is pathetic and delusional, Carey. You're a silly old fart who talks in circles and whose thought processes usually skip a step thereby leading to the muddled conclusions that are made more murky by your inability to articulate them. Your responses to NTFS are so self-contradictory that it's beyond ridiculous. And your mind is so inflexible that you become addled if somebody injects something into a conversation that calls for you to broaden your perspective. Talk about somebody not being able to walk and chew gum at the same time! Just because you can't come up with a response to my remark about Obama being inept doesn't make it irrelevant. It just exposes you as being the mental dwarf I've always accused you of being, - a person with a one track mind who wants to control the conversation and dismiss anything he doesn't like to hear about. Poor ol fella. Chrishayden should write a vignette on you. BTW, it figures that you would relate to Diva904 because you are both suspended in a state of perpetual confusion. Her about her manuscript, and you about - everything. It should be obvious by now to even you that your opinion of me couldn't possibly be any lower than mine of you, Carey, so our discussions are just an exercise in futility.  |

BTW, Carey, you don't know how Obama was talking during his foray into community service. I have it on good authority, that he wasn't speaking Ebonics when he interacted with folks. He talked in his natural voice using standard English, occasionally lapsing into slang that no white person would have trouble relating to. It seems inconceivable to you and Chrishayden that a person doesn't have to act either black or white, but can just adopt a regular manner. |

And for somebody who thinks he is so up on things, Carey, you are wrong about the old "one drop of black blood making you black" criteria still being in effect. Tell that to all the bi-racial folks out there who refer to themselves as "mixies" and who check "other" on their applications. Even young black kids adhere to this distinction, many of them automatically referring to their light skinned peers as "mixed". |

Btw, I don't have a low opinion of you. I just vehemently disagree with some of that mess that you let fall out of yo' mouth. You're probably a very nice person but your mouth sucks *lol*. I mean, your tendency to muddle issues is a sore spot with me. You appear to have a hard time admitting that you may have errored in your verbiage. But hey, don't take that ass whipping personally. You know, that one 904 put on you. why didn't you simply say that you were sorry for buttin' in other folks bizness? Huh- why didn't you simply jack up your slacks instead of getting your panties all in a bunch. Your booty's to thin to box with God ...I mean Big Diva. |

Ooooooh shut uuuuup. Blah, blah, blah, woo, woo, woo. I stand by everything I said about you and your dense self, "Careless". You, of all people, have a lot of nerve talking about somebody not being able to admit that half the time they don't know what they're talkin about and who can't concede that they've been "had" in an argument and who twists people's words around. Puleeze. It's waste of time arguing with you because you are guilty of everything you try to accuse me and others of. You have a blind side and can't see how you, yourself, come across. As MJ says, you need to start with the man in the mirror when it comes to warding off dimentia and gettin your head together. But, noooooo, you are too busy grasping at straws, trying to hide behind 904diva's skirt, because you can't do damage control for your own silly arguments. And, incidentally, I also stand by everything I said to 904Diva. She could write a how-to book about all the advice she's been repeatedly given on this board in response to her questions. And, hey, I've never been one to not butt into other people's conversations on this public forum. Is there a rule against this? If there is, it's too bad. Sue me. And don't do me any favors by not having a low opinion of me, "Careless". Your disapproval makes me more credible. Needless to say, my regard for your intellect is still stuck on zeeeero.  |

"Silly arguments"? Okay, I suppose you're right. "Dense self"? Dang it, you're probably right again "You have a blind side and can't see how you, yoursefl, come across"?! You're really starting to piss me off. One more time, you are close to telling the truth. But I know exactly how I come across. That's what I do. Heck, I've made you look, you dirty crook. Oh well, it's Sunday. I've made it through another week. Don't stay gone so long, Chris missed you. |

Cynique I don't care what anyone says your post on Saturday, August 22, 2009 - 07:45 pm was classic. Here is a problem we have. When Black people exhibit characterics of the domainant culture they are accused of acting "white". This reality becomes clear when you live around actual African's. Everything from the languane we speak, the food we eat, to the religon we practice is a function of the dominant culture. A culture, that if you wanted to make it here, you HAD to become well versed in. Even European immigrants had to do this. The culture of the inner city and the south IS our Black culture. The ebonics, the chitterlings, the dances, the Blues, Jazz, the hooping and hollering in the church THAT is our culture. But it is slowly slipping away. People no longer buy Jazz. Few Black folks have ever cleaned a chiteerling (or even know what it is). The dominant culture here is taking over not just this country but globally. Already most major US cities with their town centers, Walmarts, Starbucks, and POWERR 99 FM's look the same. Go to Japan, London, Thailand and you will feel remarkably at home in the local Mickey D's. This accusation of "acting white" by some Black folks of others is just a cry of anguish at seeing the what little remains of our fleeting culture vanish forever. The cry is warranted, but unavoidable. |

Troy, if you don't take that french bread out of yo' mouth and stop talking silly. Maybe it's that you wish everyone talked and walked like Howdy Doody. Troy, you need to move around. See, you even dropped the old sterotypical Chitterling on the ground. BTW, they come cleaned, you should try some. If you are trying to imply that acting white doesn't have it's place, you are only trying to fool yourself! See, you keep trying to get this twisted. Why do you attach acting black to all thangs negative - huh? You should search your heart and see if your words and actions are "acting" white? It's obvious that you and your laugh track are unconsciously doing it and there in lies the problem. |

Carey what did I say about our culture that was "negative"? Please, tell me. When you do so you will be exposing the insecutires that YOU harbor and have been projecting onto me. |
