Racist/Ignorant Checklist
1. You are a racist/ignorant when you say the following words: N*, C*, W*, G*, W*, and K* etc etc etc.
No amount of spelling variations doesn’t change the origin and meaning of the word.
2. You are a racist/ignorant when you say stereotypical comments about a group of people.
Seungri a.k.a Victory of Big Bang comment’s: how in America, he probably could’ve gotten shot. Then SeungRi is thankful that it was a Caucasian and not an African American.
3. You are a racist/ignorant when you used the color of your friends skin to justify your “nonracism”.
I have many black friends, so I’m not racist.
4. You are a racist/ignorant when you agree with a racist joke, comment or action.
You are encouraging, not combating. Yes, I’m talking about SOME Big Bang fans who chose to ignore Seungri comment.
5. You are a racist/ignorant when you use “we should get rid of Black History, Affirmative Action as excuse further your argument.
The purpose of Black History is to EDUCATE and statistics shows that Affirmative Action helps WHITE WOMEN not African Americans.
6. You are a racist/ignorant when you tell a group of people to “get over it” about their past atrocity.
Those who do not learn from their past are doomed to repeat it.
7. You are a racist/ignorant when you believe the images seen/heard on TV, Radio, movies etc.
African Americans depicted as Violent or Criminals
Arabs depicted as Terriosts or crazed
Mexicans depicted as lazy or illiterate
Asians depicted as exotic or mysterious
American Indians depicted as savages
Any roles from Non white cultures depicted by white actors.
From thina:
“…..oh, and just to ‘clear up’ the comment, i say ‘black’ because my close friends who are black have told me many times “we’re not all african american”. there’s a difference between ‘black’ and the “N” word. 19 Oct 2007″
Apparently her and her “friends” have been watching too much “Boondocks”.
From mon5482:
“dont worry thina, we all know ur not racist, but we do know who’s the ignorant one…and its neither u nor seungri :X”
Yes and that would be YOU and thina if you do not think there is anything wrong with that stereotypical ignorant comment Seungri made. It also shows your true feeling towards “blacks” and “African Americans”.

Talk about calling people out. lol
I agree though. I don’t think Seung Ri is racist but definitely ignorant. I do blame a lot of our African American counterparts for what he said just as much as I blame him. They portray this image and glorify it. Make it as if it’s something we should be proud of. I’m not proud that people think people who look like me are dangerous and stupid. That is far from the truth of anyone I know or of me. My family is stern when it comes to education. Many of my family members went to college and everything. I doubt any of my family members knows anything about being a gangster. As much as I think Mr.YG should take responsibility so does our community. Especially celebrities. They are pretty much on this so called “paper chase.” That’s all they care about is the money. They don’t care how this affects our people overseas. It’s really sickening.
