I am of Asian-Indian descent.
I love all non-white people but I
have always hated white motherfuckers!
I want to see all people of color coming together on a common platform of love and fight against the evil and much hated white man!!

Miss Jones is the culprit in this case. Of course, all minorities experience institutionalized white racism at place of work, through media and so on. That goes without saying. That is not the case with Miss Jones and hot 97. She was not beatened unjustly like Rodney King nor was she shot violently over a few dollars. In Miss Jone’s case, she and her crew had a choice. She chose to sing willingly about dead “sreaming ch–nks,drowning Africans, child slavery and b-tches. In this case, it was a few ignorant people who should have known better. Asians have a problem with someone like Miss Jones. She is a racist period! To simply point the finger at whites is missing the point! What made it worse was that Emmiss profited over their ignorance and stupidity. She gave the whites a bone to chew on. It appears to me that Miss Jones was the one who imployed the Divide and Conquer strategy.

Miss Jones is not the culprit. I believe the underlying issue is white controlled media. Take for example the LA riots in 1991. Rodney King was beaten and 4 white officers were on trial. Yet on ABC, the video of the Korean grocer who shot a 13 year old black girl was replayed daily as much as 3 times in a row during a news cast. The video was violent. I have never seen a person actually shot on tv, but ABC showed the clip in its entirety. THis was the most incendieary video I had ever seen.

What blacks and asians fail to see is how white controlled media and power manipulate seemingly minor events to divert angry away from whites.

White people enslaved blacks, white people killed off the indians; whites in power place immigrants who cannot speak english in the middle of Compton to open liquor stores on every block.

Blacks like Miss Jones see a problem with Asians. But if you look close enough, it's your old slavemaster enemy who is pitting black against other races by way of poverty and institutional racism.

Dear Sir/Madam:

Miss Jones and her morning crew are clearly the “criminal.” The finger should be pointed directly to them and not to history. Athough our past experiences and historical events are undeniably tied to our behaviors/perceptions, Miss Jone’s airing of the “tsunami song” does not stem from historical racial tensions between African Americans and Asian Americans. It is on a personal level, and not historical. Miss Jone’s behaviors are deeply rooted from her feelings of insecurity, self-hatred and frustration. Her comment to Miss Info, “You feel superior, probably because you’re Asian,” speaks volumes about Miss Jone’s feelings inadequacy and powerlessness. To blame society and to portray Miss Jones as an example of our history gone wrong is clearly a misperception. Our history does not give us the right to dehumanize over 300,000 dead tsunami victims and use racial slurs. Yes, we are tied by our past, but we are not paralyzed by it. Everyone has a choice! All people of color and ethnicity have experienced past prejudices and injustice. I don’t hear them singing the “tsunami song.”

Just want to say this: if you little punks out there aren’t going to identify yourself when you post, don’t fucking post here. Especially if you’re going to be an ignorant shithead. I don’t need the bullshit, and I certainly don’t have the time. So step up and take some responsibility or go be an asshole somewhere else.

only in the realm of cyberspace can anonymous computer jockeys feel safe enough to spout off kindergarten commentary like "get a job" and "lay off the crack".

next in line, please!

It pisses me off that blacks keep complaining about slavery. It’s over, deal with it. I think the Vietnamese are dealing with the fact that over three million of them died by the hands of nigger and cracker. I think the Russians are dealing with the fact that over twenty million of them died by the hands of krauts. DEAL WITH IT, MOVE ON, AND STOP BITCHING. GET A JOB AND LAY OFF THE CRACK.
