Its not a case of having a go at white people I am a white person myself. It is a case of sticking up for black people. You can stick up for blacks without having a go at whites. All I want for black people is to get the same treatment as whites-no better, no worse. we are one race, the human race aint we?
And with regard to your comment sticking up for whites aint political:
Whats does political mean?
Politics (from Greek: Πολιτικά, politiká, 'affairs of the cities') is the set of activities that are associated with making decisions in groups, or other forms of power relations between individuals, such as the distribution of resources or status. ... Politics is a multifaceted word.
As regards my "high horse" there are many right wingers on here who are always on there high horse when they criticise black folks...have a go at them as well. That would be at least consistent.

Not doubting that there are some very qualified people on here, many no doubt a lot more qualified than me i but I do feel that one or two ought to try a basic sociology course to brush up on stuff like racism. At least schools do their best to teach kids about it but no doubt it is getting squeezed out with other stuff taking priority nowadays. I think kids are at least more enlightened about it nowadays us owd uns were never taught about it in school which is probably one of the reasons why the older generation seems to be more intolerant when it comes to race issues.

Nope. Being an 'educated' person and having read that I still don't have a clue. However, the Black Employees Resource Group at my place of work have just issued their 'Manifesto for Change' so I'm sure there will be some training in there that will enlighten the rest of us.
...and the positives for balance?
Just a thought Grist. Do you like any of our black players?

See above post...unless you don't think we should have black players in our team.. Bye bye Ogbene ... Have you not been nursed by black nurses in hospital...? Is your doctor black? Do you eat Indian food etc?

Don't dislike them, I judge on footballing merit. I've disliked more white ones than black ones.
But that's because im not brainwashed into liking or disliking anybody based on their skin colour nor will I jump to the defence of somebody just because they are black.
Maybe it's down to going through an education system before indoctrination started. You sort of think about it more instead of bleating where required by rent a mob or by those on the twittersphere.
