So, I am taking two classes this semester...

As some of you know, I am still trying to get a Bachelor's degree (yeah, yeah, I've been trying to do that since I was 18 years old). I am taking two classes this semester; one class is called Black Political Identity in the Transnational Context and the other class is called Calculus 2. Of course, everyone is required to take Calculus 2 in order to get a degree in computer science... and... everyone is required to take a Core course in order to satisfy the general college requirements. Black Political Identity is one of those Core courses. For obvious reasons, that class is much more interesting than Calculus 2. (Though I don't think I'll ever be able to find out in that class whether the average IQ of U.S. blacks is indeed 10 points lower than the average IQ of U.S. whites).
...My first calculus test will be on October 2nd... I hope I'll pass that class.

Black Political Identity in the Transnational Context. That's certain to be an unbiased class. lulz Probably taught by an angry black woman who has never smiled a day in her life. Fuck classes like that. You could find something much more appealing that would still fit the requirement.

Calc 2 was a bitch, but you'll wish you were back there once you start Differential Equations or Linear Algebra.

There are or at least were,built in biases.

Also I think it has something to do with not being able to swim.

I'm probably alone in my thinking as obviously if the World needs anything it's one more person with a degree in computer science but personally I would have far greater respect for you if you simply sold crack or kidnapped children's dogs so you could turn around and collect a reward for finding them.

ffs.

Jeebus, that's some dry reading. I believe it is correct. The disparities between blacks and whites in the US has deep Roots (puns :happy: ) that won't just sort themselves out. They haven't been solved, either. Did not read the entire article, but have come across the info elsewhere (albeit in more palatable forms). Differences go as far as nutritional differences, schools, media bias, tests designed that favor whites (how well would the majority of us do when being transposed into say a Native American/Indian school with different subculture?), access to computers/ high speed internet, professor bias (not all tests are performed blind to grader), etc.

Thing is, nobody has found a remedy. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was 50 years ago. At the current rate, I don't personally see full integration in the next 50 (3 generations*).


*5 for blacks :P

Advice to Oleg: avoid that class like Ebola.

Wow, a whole two classes, ffs.

You are now thirty one/thirty two by my calculations and still playing with yourself (and) doing undergrad work, are you trying for the record on the worlds longest adolescence? :blink:

Looks like a nice campus, Oleg. (Fairly safe assumption based on the unique course title.)

Interesting how the class would focus specifically on 1900-1960. 1964-present would be more along the lines of modern political assessment. There are a number of classes which, as Skiz pointed out, are nothing but a bitch fest and/or tear jerker. One class my wife took on Northwest History was ALL about how horrible whites had been to Indians. No exaggeration. You are VERY unlikely to hear a single word that would indicate anyone in the US had ever been anything but a slave trader who whipped blacks for walking down the street.

Ask yourself what value the course will have other than being used as a pulpit. Things here are less than ideal, but dwelling in oppression 54 to 114 years ago isn't going to do anything but pile guilt on the members of the class who most likely weren't even born for another 30+ years.

EDIT- If you do decide to stay in the class, don't resist. The professors who teach specific classes like that do it because they've got an ax to grind. If you value your grade, just consider yourself in a prison cell with a black, 300 lb weight lifter who thinks you owe some "reparations".

Blacks do make better dancers, as they have more natural rhythm than whites. They also chuck spears better than whites. They also run faster than whites, with or without drugs (ask Ben Johnson).

Also, I can understand the IQ deficit. It would explain why America now has a black president following on from a brain dead moron. After all, you wouldn't want have a genius follow on from a retard now, would you.

The thing is that IQ tests are biased anyway. They measure what the author wishes to measure, and doesn't take into account other attributes, such as good rhythm, or spear chucking ability.

Eddy Murphy might not be as intelligent as his white counterpart, but I bet he is a darn sight funnier than his white counterpart.

Danny Glover might not be as lethal as his white partner, Mel Gibson, but he is less likely to shoot you for no reason whatsoever, whereas Riggs would pop your arse for no reason at all.

Also, IQ does not dictate heat. Halle Berry is really hot, regardless of her IQ.

Blacks run faster and are better athletes rising from the fact that lions are more deadly than mice or hedgehogs. Also they were selectively bred to take part in bare knuckle fights to the death by their slave masters if movies are true which I'm assuming they are.
There also seems to be some strange phenomenon,likely paranormal where Black get less funny as they age while Jews get funnier. If there is anyone here who has studied science or magic, please shed some light on why this is.

It's that extra leg muscle.

Yer better usin' it as toilet paper, then lickin' it clean so you can reuse it again, and again, and again. In fact, I'm a bettin' that you'd love the taste of yer own shit.

We should be kinder and more encompassing of our only truly persistent spamtard, after all Oleg and Ziggy are blessing us with their pontifications far more infrequently these days, and Dave has become bi-annual in his revenge plots which is a truly sad state of affairs :sadwalk:

Even the Urg, Glurg, Bfurk brigade seems to have settled down now that they have achieved their magical minimum post requirement, so we should look on a truly persistent moran as a thing of wonder, a joy to behold, and not swot it mercilessly but encourage it to flourish to a full flowered gumby and maybe bring along lot's of other little gumby friends :yup:

Seems like Art is inviting your friends to come join in the party, FoX. :)
