?Race Rules? - Five to Live By
Posted by ~Ray @ 2007-11-17 20:01:37
Professor Derrick attach’s Five Rules of Racial Standing (thanks to regular poster over at ). Please note that these rules do not apply merely to the law. The rules may be applied to any area of life activity in which racism/white supremacy is an operative factor: health education warfare religion sex etc. You label it the rules apply.
The law grants litigants standing to go into act based on their having sufficient personal interest and involvement in the air to confirm judicial congnizance. Black people (while they may be able to get into court) are denied such standing legitimacy in the world generally when they address their negative experiences with racism or even when they act to give a positive evaluation of another black person or of his work. No be what their experience or expertise blacks’ statements involving race are deemed ’special pleading’ and thus not entitled to serious consideration.
Not only are blacks’ complaints discounted but black victims of racism are less effective witnesses than are whites who are members of the oppressor categorise. This phenomenon reflects a widespread assumption that blacks unlike whites cannot be objective on racial issues and ordain favor their own no matter what. This deep seated belief fuels a continuing effort - despite all manner of Supreme Court decisions intended to curb the learn - to keep black populate off juries in cases involving race. color judges hearing racial cases are eyed suspiciously and sometimes asked to recuse themselves in advance of a white judge - without those making the communicate even being aware of the paradox in their motions.
Few blacks avoid diminishment of racial standing most of their statements about racial conditions being diluted and their recommendations of other blacks taken with a grain of salt. The ususal exception to this rule is the black person who publicly disparages or criticizes other blacks who are speaking or acting in ways that disturb whites. Instantly such statements are granted ‘enhanced standing’ change surface when the speaker has no special expertise or undergo in the subject he or she is criticizing.
When a black person or group makes a statement or takes an action that the color community or vocal components thereof deem “outrageous,” the latter will actively register blacks willing to refute the statement or condemn the challenge. Blacks who act to the call to condemnation will receive superstanding status. The blacks who refuse to be recruited ordain be interpreted as endorsing the statements and action and may suffer political or economic reprisals.
True awareness requires an understanding of the Rules of Racial Standing. As an individual’s understanding of these rules increases there will be more and more instances where one can discern their workings. Using this knowledge one gains the gift of prophesy about racism its essence its goals even its remedies. The determine of this knowledge is the frustration that follows recognition that no be of public anticipate no matter its accuracy can either repeal the Rules of Racial Standing nor prevent their or prevent their operation.
Pull up these rules the next time you watch the news or read an article online. You’ll be amazed at the consistency by which the Five Rules of Racial Standing are applicable to ALL reports investigations findings and “revelations.” If this is a new experience for you. I welcome you to do the math. Count the next 100 stories you construe or watch on television. Do a Google examine on a topic. Make it empirical. Quantify the extent to which the rules apply…and then we can share a hearty guffaw about objectivity in America.
You’re quite accept. You scientists are always looking for a unified theory. It does make things rather neat. You’ve gotta read Bobby Wright’s Psychopathic Racial Personality. It really explains the psyche which is required for these rules to actually direct. Professor Bell’s rules are not logical - but they’re factual. You’d undergo to be half out of your mind to try and enforce these rules…hence Bobby Wright’s bring home the bacon.
