Awww ****. Yo I am in class so I ain't got time to respond to this in a full, wall-o-text-, Black History Month Fueled, but enjoy this video I made

Don't you dare try to associate my entire race with thuggish stereotypes. I get that there are a LOT of them who act like complete fools, I get that when you look a the news you see a lot of picture of black males committing crimes. I am angry about those who continue to perpetrate the bad image, but I am also mad at people like you who think that's just how most of us are, but at hey at least some of us are alright.
Morgan Freeman actually hates black history month because he considers black history a part of the entire American history, and I partly agree with this. Why do black people get a month and not the Irish? Because we are not 16th century Europe. I must have already forgotten how the Irish were slaves 200 years ago, or how they had their own water fountains because they were from Ireland.
And that "accent and culture" you hate is NOT unique to the black race, yet you, the media, and pop culture want it to be. I could go on endlessly about how hood-talk is not the same a black talk, but instead I am going to unfairly point out how much I hate drunk white people at any and all sporting events and generalize them as all Jersey Shore clones. I know not all white people are like this, but hey that's my experience so therefore it is a set truth!
Also, tired of seeing black people living in the ghetto? Why are they all stuck in bad neighborhoods or cling to the thug life? Laziness is an easy answer, and honestly, sometimes it is that, but don't you make it seem like it's easy. After decades of being forced in to the poorest parts of town, with the worst opportunities, with the worst kinds of jobs, how do people expect sections of cities who have been disadvantaged for decades if not centuries to just pick themselves up my their bootstraps and make it the "anyone can be rich" world of America? People like to use their random grandfather or something who came to the US as a immigrant in the 30s and went from rags to riches. Pretty sure said immigrant would not have to worry about being killed for whistling at a white women either.
tl;dr
Black stereotypes frustrate me, and the current negatives of the black community have faults on both the community and the racist effects of deceased of oppression. We as race need to do better, but at the same time, do not dare act like this is all our fault and we can magically rebound.
