Blacks have a bigger burden to play in healing race relations than whites.  Blacks shouldn't feel especially proud that Obama has made it because Obama's yet another buppie who's got his off of downtrodden blacks' backs.  It will be Obama's responsibility to let white people know that racism isn't over, and Obama's responsibility to tell blacks to be patient and understanding with racist whites.   Black people must let white people benefit and feel good and get over on them.  Whites must slip blacks handouts without having to call them handouts.  And both groups need to stop thinking of blacks as losers.  Instead of demanding equal treatment, blacks must carefully and gingerly tread on white sensibilities.  It will be Obama's job and responsibility to teach black people how to act more like whites in order to get ahead.   The only way you can help black people is to white wash the problems and include all people in black specific problems.    Even though I'm a pampered Harvard grad, I had to lower myself to take government health care like \"them.\"  Then I realized, it isn't a black and white issue, it's a class issue!

I would also add that Will Smith has been divorced, for more than a decade, from life as it affects citizens who are not mega-rich.  For instance, he doesn\'t go in person to the grocery store, or to pay utility bills, or to the mall.  He doesn\'t go to neighborhood theaters.  He doesn\'t take long road trips and stop at interesting restaurants.  He is as much a victim of his celebrity, because he can\'t participate in these activities, as he is blessed by it.  My problem with Will Smith is that somewhere, the lines blurred and he doesn\'t -- or can\'t -- recognize that the vast majority of people, including black folk, don\'t live the type of lifestyle he claims is so \'regular\'.</div>\

It would not be in his best interest to face the truth of the ways in which the system that he claims is so colour blind manipulates his success to its advantage.   Blacks that challenge racism are not revered, we are considered angry malcontents.  The refusal to sup from the masters plate is considered a betrayal.  Whiteness wants gratitude for the table scraps not a challenge to its authority. </i></div>\

So many daunting challenges face President Obama that it\'s hard to know on which to offer him my unsolicited advice first. It\'s a crapshoot as to whether any president could heal our bedridden economy, guide us out of Iraq, end our petro dependence, save the environment, and convince the world that the last eight years were an aberration of which we are ashamed. Only Obama, however, gives us any reason to hope that we can begin to bridge the divide between the races, so I\'ll leave those other issues to, well, other journalists.<br><br>America\'s election of its first black president has to be followed by a demonstrated and pragmatic drive to improve race relations, or we\'ll have fallen prey to the biggest delusion in world history. For all the racial ugliness this campaign has exposed, though, and for all that will no doubt follow, it\'s not only whites who will imperil this process. Obama will have to lead both races in redefining blacks in the American mindset. Unless I\'m much mistaken, blacks will face the greater crisis of imagination.<br><br><a href="http://www.motherjones.com//news/feature/2009/01/class-is-the-new-black.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.motherjones.com//news/feature/2009/0...</a></div>\

Blacks have a bigger burden to play in healing race relations than whites.  Blacks shouldn\'t feel especially proud that Obama has made it because Obama\'s yet another buppie who\'s got his off of downtrodden blacks\' backs.  It will be Obama\'s responsibility to let white people know that racism isn\'t over, and Obama\'s responsibility to tell blacks to be patient and understanding with racist whites.   Black people must let white people benefit and feel good and get over on them.  Whites must slip blacks handouts without having to call them handouts.  And both groups need to stop thinking of blacks as losers.  Instead of demanding equal treatment, blacks must carefully and gingerly tread on white sensibilities.  It will be Obama\'s job and responsibility to teach black people how to act more like whites in order to get ahead.   The only way you can help black people is to white wash the problems and include all people in black specific problems.    Even though I\'m a pampered Harvard grad, I had to lower myself to take government health care like "them."  Then I realized, it isn\'t a black and white issue, it\'s a class issue!  The only way to help blacks is to "disappear" blacks!<br><br><br>Anything missing?</div>\

Tiger does not want to choose between his father\'s heritage or his mother\'s and he refuses to be defined by his skin color.  Even though folks demand he "admit" he is black.  So, I can understand why reacts this way.  Many disagree but I don\'t have a problem because I get it.  <br><br>Now the opposite is true with Kimora Lee Simmons.  She wanted to be considered "black" but she was not accepted by some of the black community.<br>Go figure.<br><br>Direct quote from Kimora -- Racial identity<br>"I consider myself to be one of the black women in fashion who made it," Kimora says. "But black women don\'t look at me like that."  Simmons has also stated that "A number of them [black women] probably think Russell should be married to a black woman (rather than Afro-Asian)."<br><br>Just like my Mother in law before she died.  She cried many times when she talked to me about her childhood (and she was 65+ years old at the time) because she was from an interracial background.  Her mother was black and father white. She was treated worse by blacks than she was by whites (which was also a horrible experience for her) and it stayed with her until death.  So . . . I get Tiger\'s decision and respect it.  He knows who he is and who cares how others want to define him.</div>\

Scouting little boys at their daycare??<br><br>NCAA classifies 7th graders as prospects<br><br>OXON HILL, Md. (AP) - Giving in to the young-and-younger movement in college basketball recruiting, the NCAA has decreed that seventh-graders are now officially classified as prospects.<br>The organization voted Thursday to change the definition of a prospect from ninth grade to seventh grade — for men\'s basketball only — to nip a trend in which some college coaches were working at private, elite camps and clinics for seventh- and eighth-graders. The NCAA couldn\'t regulate those camps because those youngsters fell below the current cutoff.<br>"It\'s a little scary only because — we talked about this — where does it stop?" said Joe D\'Antonio, chairman of the 31-member Division I Legislative Council, which approved the change during a two-day meeting at the NCAA Convention. "The fact that we\'ve got to this point is really just a sign of the times."<br><br>Schools had expressed concern that the younger-age elite camps were giving participating coaches a recruiting advantage, pressuring other coaches to start their own camps.<br>"The need to nip that in the bud was overwhelming," said Steve Mallonee, the NCAA\'s managing director of academic and membership affairs.<br>While men\'s basketball is the only sport affected, D\'Antonio said he could envision future discussions on lowering the limit for other sports, notably football.</div>\

But even ignoring that, this new rule by the NCAA will disproportionately effect black youth....it will be OUR youth that are plucked as "prospects" when they are but 11 and 12 yrs old, and placed on the conveyor belt to a Division I school....and that\'s if they\'re lucky. Realistically, chances are that of those plucked, 99% won\'t make it!! Well.....you know the horror stories. Can\'t read, but managed to get from grade to grade.....just basketball skills and nothing else. Just feeding these NCAA schools so that they can continue to make millions of dollars for their programs....this is just ridiculous. There should be STRONG opposition from plenty of groups, but the silence is deafening.</div>\

Bone health depends on old and new growth to build bone density.   <br><br>Boy\'s bone health reach their peak by average age of 20, girls around the age of 18-19.<br><br>Nutrition, age, race gender, hormones are play a role in bone health.  Physical activity helps build bone density, and that\'s a good thing, because bone density is needed as we get older to prevent osteoporosis and fractures.<br><br>As to the 7th grade boys being recruited for NCCA sports, Y\'all know White men can\'t jump!  So they\'re probably going after our little KNEE-GROW BOYS.<br>God knows we can\'t have to many of them scooting about  in a 3 piece suit.<br><br>I can\'t step with that.<br><br>Sports camps provide the sport training, but what about EDUCATION?  <br>Recruit these kids for EDUCATION CAMPS, and provide the physical activites.<br><br>Winning and $$$$ is the bottom line.  Parents need to weigh in and decide for their kids.   Ultimately the onus is on the parents.<br><br>Agree with rikyrah, this should be illegal.</div>\

I am using your words to make you think about what you are doing. I find it close to fetishism and it needs to stop. I am very very old fashioned in regards to protecting children.<br>The point I am trying to make is that there is no difference between pimping athletes and releasing  "porn" pictures of children; something is being gained and even if they are consentual- w/ sexual porn consent is given. We are talking about female children in a society  where they are  pimped to sell everything and as soon as it becomes pubresent sexual, it does and will(my reference to Miss Cyrus). We know from  the JJP staff what their life will be like at Sidwell and the pressures they will be under. Add to that someone whom will be standing outside the bathroom waiting for you is an enormous invasion of privacy. To be photographed as a style setting child(Michelle alone made a dress inventory disappear in a recession), damn near every day will lead to its own set of issues.<br>What I want is for the children to be off limits period. No following them to school, no knowledge of what their wearing, what toy hangs from their bookbag. Amy Carter lets the world know she likes teddy bears and the next thing she dozens coming through the door. How many do you think were for access to Jimmy?<br>As to authorized pictures; even this has become to much for me. I do not want to know about your children or anybody else\'s. I do not want you to know about mine. Simply because they have the SS is not enough to dissuade me it\'s OK. <br>I see a lot of people commented on how bad early stressed athlectism can be for children so people recognize the danger. Let\'s just extend it to them.</div>\

Jennifer Hudson turned down inauguration performances because she didnt want the story of what happened to her family to be intertwined with the reason for the celebration. To be an asterik or a footnote in the future tellings of the festivites on Barack Obama\'s inauguration. Beyonce on the other hand begged and pleaded to be a part of it. IMHP for selfish reasons. I think everybody and their mama would like to be involved and Im sure thats part of her reason. But something in me believes that a bigger reason is so that her name will be in the history books alongside his. She wants some of that spotlight. What did she say?
