I don't understand how someone could NOT understand her point and how it makes complete sense. Are you really that thick headed? Be a little open minded.

She did not say don't teach it she just said to combine it into a larger american history category. The Irish were treated like absolute shit and they aren't complaining, ever heard of NINA (no irish need apply)? So why don't you shut the fuck up and get a job and learn to do research before you write dumb shit.

Everyone needs to stop being so offened when someone wants to celebrate their cultural difference, or set aside a particular time (a month) to educate everyone about the history and contribution of certain races. Racist is describe in the webster dictionary as based on racial intolerance, discriminatory, especially on the basis of race. I do not hear Adrienne complaining about the Gay Parades or other separate cultural or sexual events and celebrations. I do believe Adrienne is racist but her racism I believe comes from a point of ignorance not hatred. Too bad she let her emotions get the best of her by writing a very deameaning, accusatory letter to Tyra Banks, otherwise Tyra could try to help educated her even more. It is ironic that Adrienne would not be where she is today or even know the husband she has if it were not for a Black woman, but she does not even remotely understand the plight or struggles of the African Americans. Again I will say take an African American History course...as a matter of fact take at least 3.... Girl......get informed and open your mind and time to spend with other cultures, especially African Americans. Slavery has everything to do with it. Not that Black people cannot let the past go but being enslaved for over 400 years and having other races come to America on their own free will, has alot to do with it. Do you tell a child who has been molested to move on, or a woman who has been abused by her husband for years to move, or someone whose family has been murdered or someone who ecounters racsim on a daily basis to move? Do you tell the Jena 6, Mychal Bell, who has been tried as an adult when he is a child, who has been in jail for almost a year to move ont? Do you question Cino de Mayo? Hispanic Hertiage Month? Green Day? Asian Pacific Month? Chinese New Year? The Gay Parade? The first step to healing is to stop the abuse. When Black peolple are continually being treated unfairly, blamed for the N word misunderstood, held under a microscope and be subjected to people who have ingnorant paradigms such as Adrienne Curry it is difficult to just get over it. Give Black people a break. They, we have been through enough......but again the fight to peacefully educate continues....

It terrible to see that she wrote this...What she must understand is that Black History month is something that we shoud have as a reminder TO ALL people (BLack and White) that hating other people because of race is a horrible thing. If we are not reminded of our past it is possible for the HATE to happen/// Balc I think what she said was not right…But someone was comparing the holocaust and black people have gone through…..I think understand what she may have been trying to get at but she definitley approached it the wrong way.

I think the reason why you are reluctant to admit that, is because you may not realize the magnitude of the movement and the opportunities it provided to women and minorities, such as yourself,that wouldn't have been made available beforehand. Two of the largest inventions or victories of the movement were Brown v. Board in 1954, which was a blow to segregation or Jim Crow laws which condoned Seperate but Equal, and affirmative action, which came about in the 1960's. I think Kennedy may have been the first president to allude to it, but I know Johnson enforced it with the Civil Rights Act in 1964. And you're wrong about other minority groups not needing civil rights. Most minorities and women had no legal recourse when faced with discrimination in every venue from the workplace to the classroom. The African American civil rights movement was the template for the Chicano migrant workers movement, the Americans with Disabilities Act, etc.,etc. How many Asians were represented in high profile positions before the Civil Rights Act was signed? How many women? So you see, the Civil Rights movement had more far reaaching implications than you realize.

Blacks were treated by far the worse out of any minority, the other minoriteis didnt really need a civil rights movement as much as blacks. And I DO enjoy the rights I am given today, but I am not going to say that it is because of blacks that I have rights.

No one said that "You" couldn't say what he wanted to say. Ilish and just about everyone who called out "Whatever" on what he said wanted proof to back up his stereotypes. Don't be mad at Ilish because she took "You" apart. And do you call everyone who doesn't agree with you "nappy headed" or just black people? Who are you, Imus? or are you "Whatever" or are you "You"?
