....and he recently told me that true African Americans (ie. people from Africa who have come here for a great education and job opportunity) hate ghetto black Americans because they view them as lazy, racist, uneducated people who promote the victim mindset.

He said true African Americans don't hate white America. They realize the opportunity that exists in America is great (the best in the world) if only you work hard to achieve something great.

He literally HATES ghetto black America and it's no surprise that all of his friends are either white or other true Africans who also hang out with whites.

True. I know a ton of Kenyans in the Dallas area...all have masters or working towards it. They think the states is a great place of opportunity and they take advantage of it. Wish black Americans woudl adopt that mindset.

Not just them. That's the opinion of black people from the Caribbean too (Jamaican, Haitian, etc.). It's to the point where they don't want to be called African American, they want to be called by their area of origin.

This is very true.

It's seriously a universal mindset of the true Africans who come here for education and opportunity. They hate black Americans more than anyone else because black Americans give true Africans a bad name (in their opinion)

Is your friend a prince? Because there's a good chance he owes me a lot of money.

As an African-American I don't really see the point of this post? Congratulations you have an African friend who is prejudiced. Want a cookie?

You've had a sheltered existence if you think all black Americans are liberal or lazy.

I had two friends from Africa when I was a Freshman many moons ago. They were both told by their parents when they left home to stay away from Black Americans.

I have a white friend from alabama who is at Mizzou for graduate school....and he recently told me that true white americans (ie. people from the south who live here for a great education and job opportunity) hate ghetto black Americans because they view them as lazy, racist, uneducated people who promote the victim mindset.

He said true white Americans don't hate white America. They realize the opportunity that exists in America is great (the best in the world) if only you work hard to achieve something great.

I'm hoping you notice the subtle difference I added to your post so you see why generalizing about an entire race or culture based on 'this one friend who did that thing that time' is fricking stupid and you sound like a moron. But hey, you (may have) went to Mizzou so I suppose par for the course.

I hate lazy white Americans. But I really hate race issues. Damnit we fought a civil war over this shite. 600,000 mostly white Americans died in that damn war. Race issue are the dumnest thing humans do. This is supposed to be the best society in the world. There should be no race issues, period. WTF people?

Well obviously. But that can't be said by a white person because then you're a racist.
