Communities of COLOR

When I was growing up in the 1950's and 1960's, we were told to refer to black people as negroes and colored people respectively.  In the 1970's and 1980's, we were told to refer to them as African Americans and all kinds of African American cultural centers opened up all over the US.  In the late 1990's and 2000's, we were told to refer to them as either African Americans or as Blacks but today we are told that they are PEOPLE OF COLOR and that they live in COMMUNITIES OF COLOR.

What I also find interesting is that early in my life I was referred to as WHITE, then later in life I was a CAUCASIAN, and nowadays I am a NON HISPANIC WHITE...

But, what is going on with our BLACK/PEOPLE OF COLOR/AFRICAN AMERICANS especially since they only represent 13% of our US POPULATION?

Why are they getting so much attention?

BUT, going back to our Communities of Color...  why do we have Communities of Color in the first place?

  • Do Blacks not want to live with whites?
  • Do Whites not want to live with blacks?
AND...  here is another interesting question...
SHOULD OUR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FORCE STATES AND COMMUNITIES TO BE 
REPRESENTATIVE OF US DEMOCRAPHICS?
    Churches
Drug Addicts
Drug Sellers
Schools
Communities
Restaurants
Resorts
Airline Travel
Law Enforcement
Professional Athletes
Employees
Fire Protection Personnel
Doctors
Lawyers
Dentists
Airline Pilots
CEO's
Millionaires/Billionaires
Elected Officials
College Professors
Astronauts
Taxi Cab Drivers
Professional Musicians
Professional Dancers
Financial Bankers & Brokers
Professional Golfers
Professional Tennis Players

For instance,
I live in a community in East TN where there are at least 150 homes and the people who live in those homes are ALL WHITE...
Should our community BE FORCED to have:
  • 13% of our homes be owned by BLACKS/AFRICAN AMERICANS/PEOPLE OF COLOR
  • 18% of our homes be owned by Hispanics/Latinos
  • 6% of our homes be owned by Asians
Why are PEOPLE OF COLOR more important than Hispanics/Latinos?

The fact remains that we have COMMUNITIES OF COLOR in the US because the PEOPLE OF COLOR do not want to live with the CAUCASIANS or NON HISPANIC WHITES...  otherwise, they would be bitching and doing exactly that...

  1. BLACK PEOPLE want their exclusive AFRICAN AMERICAN CULTURAL CENTERS
  2. BLACK PEOPLE want their exclusive WHITES ARE TO BLAME FOR SLAVERY COLLEGE CLASSES
  3. BLACK PEOPLE want their beliefs that OUR CONSTITUTION SHOULD BE REWRITTEN TO REFLECT ONLY THEIR INTERESTS and that our Amendments are not enough for them
  4. BLACK PEOPLE want the WEALTH taken away from WHITES and given to BLACKS
  5. BLACK PEOPLE want the WHITE MILITARY to protect them while they are destroying American rights and liberties
