Kobe Bryant and Derek Jeter

If you were to walk into a room filled with the 2010 Los Angeles Lakers or the 2009 New York Yankees and started calling them “losers” and “bums” and “chumps”, they’d probably look at you curiously, smirk a little bit and maybe even laugh out loud.

You could probably continue to insult them too—so long as you didn’t launch into any personal or family-based attacks—so amused would they be by you and so certain would they also be that you were some isolated nut that was also totally harmless.

Meanwhile, if you tried the same stunt with the 2010 New Jersey Nets, you’d likely end up beaten to a bloody pulp and rushed out of the room barely breathing.

Why is this, you think?

Well, for the same reason there are no really good slurs against White Anglo-Saxon Protestants. Most of the world is so convinced that a White Anglo-Saxon Protestant is the thing to be that if you were to try to insult one, your attempt would be viewed as more of an indication of your own psychological distance from reality and not that anything was wrong with the people you were attacking.

Why do you think that those nutty Nubian Islamic Hebrews are allowed to stand on street corners and read excerpts from the bible that they always seem to interpret as slurs against Europeans?

Why do you think that for so many years, the Nation of Islam was allowed to say so many shocking things against white people while simultaneously being (on the surface at least) protected by the police?

Why do Black comics poke such silly fun at white audience members?

Because the white people that they’re supposed to be attacking see anybody that verbally attacks white people as sufferers of sour grapes.

They almost feel sorry for their verbal attackers and as a magnanimous exercise, allow the attacks to continue if only to show the world that despite their own obvious greatness, they’re good sports as well.

Now think about how Blacks react whenever other races insult us, most specifically, whenever other races use the “N-Word”.

Do we react like the Lakers, the Yankees or the Nets?

    Nubian Islamic Hebrews??? naw those are “HEBREW-ISREALITES”

    anyway, I agree that we need to be Champions and lose the victim-mentality cuz that is self-sabotage.

    sure there’s madddddddddd traps setup for us and there has been for a long time
    but that doesnt mean we just fall into the traps.

    we just gotta go harder!

    No. White people need to behave like champions…

    It wasn’t black men that hung white men on trees

    It wasn’t black men that used white people for cheap labour and slavery…

    It wasn’t black people that killed, raped and pillaged black people and their lands and continue to do so…

    It wasn’t black people that dropped atomic bombs on people they couldn’t beat in a fair fight…

    It wasn’t black people that gave the indians blankets with smallpox…

    It wasn’t black people that wiped out the indians as thanks for saving their lives in the new world…

    It’s not black people that do suicide bombings and killing everybody…

    It’s not black people who dropped napalm and agent orange on people when they were losing in a fight…

    It’s not black people that keep spying on what everyone else is doing while arguing that others shouldn’t be spying on them…

    It’s not black people that made themselves feel better about themselves by creatibng lies and falshoods designed berate others…

    It’s not black people that burn crosses on people’s lawns…

    It’s not black people commit suicide when they don’t get what they want…

    It’s not black people that go on a killing spree when someone teases them at school…

    It’s not black people that drag black men from a truck…

    Black people did not do these things… The people that do these things are not champions… They are extremely insecure people who feel like losers and can’t get over their inbuilt inferiority complex…

    Black people are champions because if the tables were reversed, white people would not be here asking for peace and harmony or to “get over slavery”…

    That’s for damn sure…

    “Inexplicably,” I actually agree with RK on this. We do need to start thinking and acting like the champs that we once were. The ironic thing though, NEWSONE can be best compared to the nets in your analogy. How many times have you and/or your co-writer mentioned some innocuous incident of someone using the N word, or appearing in black face or having a Compton Cookout, or a comment that is often misconstrued as racism that in the grand scheme of things, means absolutely nothing. I suggest before you start pulling the coats of the readers of this site, you start with your fellow staff members.

    Sharazad Ali made a statement on Phil Donahue once that I think bears repeating. “Racism is not our problem, it’s been our inept reaction to it” I guess she would also agree that we act more like perennial losers rather than a team going for the ring. Most groups play to win, while blacks seem content to play just to play.

    instead, rise above that curse, raise your children outside of that curse which only comes through clinging to jesus and maybe, just maybe, you can stop being a bunch of bottom feeders on a losing team

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Real_bumbleclot/ Real_bumbleclot

    It depend what kind of champions we should be like. If I have to be a champion in a eurocentric view, then I rather be a loser. If I should be a champion like my ancestors, that’s the goal I’m aiming for.

    I never heard of a Nubian Islamic Hebrew before, but I heard of a Hebrew Isrealite but you call them nutty, why is that? Is it because they say the true jews is black and not white? Or is it that they call the messiah Yashuha and not jesus? They can back their words up with scripture but no man made religion can’t, not even your white christian religion, but you call these dudes nutty.

    That’s why black folks aint being the champions we once were, because we believe anything them crackaz say. We had a history before 1619, but they tried to white wash it but its on us to find that knowledge.

    Like SoularFlarez once said, we’re in the information age. We’re just 1 mouse click and a book away from finding our true history. It would be nice if blackplanet would help with proving our true identity, instead of talking down on the next black man, woman, or child.

    RK Byers this is a great piece, I copied it for my adult and teen children to read, to give them something to think about. I agree, Blacks are the Champions, it is obvious, we are always overcoming many obstacles, shattering the glass ceiling, and making a way out of no way regardless of the opposition. We are strong and have no room for weakness. Your article is something to think about, and adhere to. Thank you.

    I like this article: I didn’t hear Jordan constantly whine about the hard fouls he was getting from the Knicks. He just said that he was going to take it to them even harder..and now Patrick Ewing has a huge space in his mantle, while Jordan can’t even find any more space..

    @AfricanSpeech
    I agree with your entire list…but not one line of that excuses Blacks for not even TRYING to live up to their potential; being happy with accomplishing (really) nothing, because “the world (Whites) won’t let us have anything…we just do what we CAN.”

    We need to know who committed the original sin, but the fact is..we can not afford to ‘relive’ that past every time we hit a roadblock. We are to learn it, teach it, be aware of it, BUT then use that horrible past/present to invigorate our FUTURE actions..not pity ourselves b/c of what our People went through and excusing our present shortcomings, like waaaay too many do (not @AfricanSpeech in particular, but too many Blacks do it-I used to do it all the time).

    I have the feeling that my great-grandfather would have wanted me to remember his pain, suffering, and sacrifice as a lesson that it TAKES great sacrifice (and Faith) if you want to build a better future for the next generation.

    This article echoes that. Like it says in the Bible (emphasis added): “IF thou be a great people then get thee up to the wood country, and CUT DOWN FOR THYSELF there in the land of the Perizzites and of the giants, if mount Ephraim be too narrow for thee.” Joshua 17:15

    Basically meaning, “IF you’re such a great People as you CLAIM, then create your own, better future, if you don’t like how things are now.”

    “IF”

    So the question is what it has always been:

    Are we a great people?
    or maybe this one is better:
    Are we READY to be a great people again?

    I say..we’re getting there..but much too slowly.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/easy_one65/ easy_one65

    I still say that, overall and in the long run, we still come out as winners. Black people get it from everybody…white people, our own people, brown people…(lol!)…So, by the time everybody gets through abusing us, we still gotta keep moving on….what other choice do we have??!!….LOL!…This is what makes us stronger, wiser and better leaders in crisis moments because of our reputation for tenacity and resilience. Again, what other choices did we have??!!…They’ve been trying to kill us and decimate us for centuries, but we’re still here.

    This is what makes “us” true champions!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/unknown108/ unknown108

    I am kind of torn between two good trains of thought. “Rk” has a good point in that we should try to hold our heads higher then normal, But “SoularFlarez” wrote some real truth that says we already do.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/jgoodm03/ jgoodm03

    In order for this dialog to work…you would need to define what you mean by “Champions”. Thus far it appears there is an attempt to compare “athletes and entertainers” to ordinary people whose goals, methodologies, drives, challenges, efforts and outcomes in life don’t match up. This is a much broader topic than “acting like champions” It has been stating in philosophical as well as biblical references; “So as a man or woman thinks, so is he or she.” To become a “Champion” begins with how one sees ones self in the world around them. After that comes the complicated tasks of living life such that a person grows and obtains some successes and failures in life to become their own definition of “Champion”

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/MisterUnderstood425/ MisterUnderstood425

    In regards to the article, I agree to a small degree in some part only because I hear the cry of racism just about everywhere I go nowadays, but at the same time I believe that Black people have behaved like Champions in taking all this brutality that we have seen and experienced in this life and many others and yet and still are willing to sit up, date, and even marry the same people and descendants of these people who have beaten, raped, discouraged, murdered, prohibited, and much more to us and still they refuse to admit that they have done or still do any of this to us or any others that they CLEARLY do.

    AfricanSpeech – BRAVO…. stay on it.

    RK Byers – Not sure where you get the inspiration for some of your articles, but a recommendation would be to stop getting it from there.

    Not sure if marrying white girls is evidence of a champion’s mentality. If anything, one would think that only losers would seek to join another team since they so obviously found their own team so lacking.

    as usual I co-sign with the enlighten sisters and brothers; Cali, Soular, AfricanSpeech, _A_, MisterUnderstood425m, CAROLINAGIRLSRDABEST, symphonee!! I see ya’ll great points everyone

    I’ll just add that I champion in my opinion is one that continues to endure every trial and tribulation, and no matter what is done or how the opponent cheats, the champion can never be completely defeated, and wins in the end.

    How many times you’ve seen those fighting movies(like blood sport, karate kid) where the opponent cheat they azz off, and still get they azz whupped in the end.

    Now don’t get me wrong, using the fight analogy, we are at a very very weakened state(yes especially with Obama) we’re sweating, we’re tired, some of us want to fight for the other team, some of us even wondering why we fighting back in the first place(you hear um, why complain just live and take the azz whuppin) we feel like we’re running out of fighting techniques, or that the enemy has turned all our techniques against us. But don’t forget my people, WE HAVE HEART!!!! Thats what makes me a champion, and that is what makes you all Champions as well. AND WE ARE THE CHOSEN!!! It reminds me of that cartoon they just turned into a movie “The Last Airbender”(ironically which was another topic on newsone) well in the toon(which I liked, don’t think I’ll see movie) Aang(THE CHOSEN ONE) final battle with the Firelord, well he started out ok, but about a minute into the fight Aang’s getting his azz whupped(BAD)and he’s beaten almost all the way down, and the Firelord bout to deliver the killing blow, but Aang’s heart is too strong, his ancestor’s strength and power flows through him, he is the righteous warrior he IS THE CHOSEN. and he basically whups the piss out the firelord, and even though he should kill him, he spares him(righteous) but removes the firelord’s power so he can never do evil again!!!! Well not to sound hooky or like im living in lala land(never have) but BLACK PEOPLE WE ARE AANG, AND EVIL WHITE PEOPLE ARE THE firelords. You have to find your HEART, feel the knowledge strength and wisdom of your ancestors, and stand up to the overwhelming odds and overcome. YOU ARE CHAMPIONS YOU ARE THE CHOSEN!!!! LIVE UP TO IT

    SuperGenius01 – While I respect your opinion, marrying someone of another race does not automatically select you as being part of the other team. Granted, you will receive some prejudice obviously from those who may not be aware of the circ**stances around your relationship, however it is a sign that there are some connections that are healing between fractured relationships. Do I agree with some of it?… not particularly, but that’s my own personal issues.

    CaliFemme23 – Thank You Sister.

    AfricanSpeech – VERY true, it is often that Champions are looked upon as role models more when they lose versus when they win. “It is what you do when no one is watching that is one’s true character”.

    Rayskilla6 – Using your fight and/or war analogy, we are in a very weakened state and some even catatonic, comatose and even friendly fire causing much of our distress. There are quite a few “Uncle Ruckus’” (Boondocks reference for those who don’t know) out there, not to mention those who seek the meager amount of power that is “bestowed” upon them by the “powers that be” in place in this society. It’s a matter of regaining our place amongst the haves and stop complaining about being a part of have nots and start working on the solution to unifying our community.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/RonRoyce626/ RonRoyce626

    Lol.. I mildly understand the point you were attempting to make.. It’s cute and it can work for some.. But the description you gave is not the TRUE reality brother. There are some people that can see that your article is completely inaccurate and missing in a lot of areas.

    White people are not FAZED.. not because they are champions.. Rather because they have POWER.. They have power to Control what gets out and what doesnt… They have POWER to make Black People Pay…

    You brought up Black Comedians making Light-Hearted Jokes about white People.. So, how come Black Intellectuals are not given a voice to say the truth about whites in a more serious format?

    You want to know why they allow Nation of Islam, Hebrews to speak out? Because they Know BLACKS will view them as NUTTY, from the Years of Brainwashing they’ve done to blacks, by way of their history books and their interpretation of the Bible..

    It’s that simple… If they Knew the information would be better received by black people and would act to WAKE them up, they would shut down all anti-white voices, just like they do in the Media…

    I would go harder on you brother, but I wont, because I understand the point you were trying to make…

    I will simply correct you and Say that WHITE PEOPLE APPEAR Like champions to you, because They do their Dirt Behind the SCENES and Smile in your face and appear to Not be AFFECTED…

    i.e. They simply react differently because they have POWER.(Muscles)

    So, you can call them Hon-ky, Cracker, Ofay or whatever you choose.. They will give u a little smile, because they are about to or can fuk you up (or any black person)by refusing your loan application, by wearing a badge and shooting you.. by refusing to give you a job, by refusing to give you an apartment.. etc. etc..

    Whereas Black People, not having POWER have to resort to getting mad or Screaming out..

    In Summary… White People Appear like the Lakers, because They have the Referees in their Pockets, they Paid off the opposing team to lose.. They set the rules of the Basketball to ensure that they win every year…

    Black people appear like the Nets,because we know the Best team didnt win and it that the Winning team, won, because they are cheaters and adjust the rules, just when they were about to Lose…

    So, it’s not as simple as telling Black People to appear like Champions

    SuperGenius
    Read my post again.. It explains what power, I made reference to.
    Some redneck from a Hillbilly Town coming to ure house to attempt to boss you around, and you kicking his azz doesn’t equal power..
    It’s white people who have power, who can determine your fate.. Who can control and make the rules to favor them.. It’s white people who can choose who the rules will affect the most.. It’s white people that can change the rules, once they see that they the rules are beginning to affect them..

    Who do you think makes the sentencing laws?
    Who do you think makes the Bank Loan Laws?
    Who do you think selectively reject Black Loan Applicants, even with good credit?

    I have too many examples.. But I’m not trying to write a book…

    So please, take some time to reflect or read about the U.S. and you will see that the guy’s article is not entirely accurate..

    His Concept, is what I agree with..
    i.e. “As you think, you Become”

    But white people are no Champions.. They are Killers, Conquerors, Heartless, Liars, Snakes.. and so forth… Which coincidentally, is what it takes to be on top in this world..

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/RonRoyce626/ RonRoyce626

    To better explain, so some of you can relate..

    It’s like me taking a Drug Dealer and then Taking a Hard Working Plumber and I compare the two and say, “Look.. why dont you be like the drug dealer, Look at all his material possession”

    That statement would not take into account, that the drug dealer is unscrupulous, that he may have Killed.. It would not be a complete comparison unless I went deeper to show why the two should not be compared.

    Well. It’s the same thing with Lakers (as white people) and the Nets (as black people) comparison..

    There’s a reason White People wont get Fazed by words?

    Why get insulted, when you have the POWER to AFFECT the fate of those who insult you?

    And even with that, it’s inaccurate, because WHITE PEOPLE DO NOT LET NEGATIVE AND TRUTHFUL INFORMATION ABOUT THEM out in SERIOUS FORUM…
    They quickly try to discredit the individual or shut them Down..

    That’s POWER.. Black People dont have that…

    Wait. I just seen that you wrote “White people are just as Mortals as anybody else” Maybe you are thinking “Power” as in Mortals vs Immortals, like a comic book or something.. Where the Mortals can Die and the Immortals are Immune to death…

    If that’s your line of reasoning, then yes, it’s confirmed, I’ve completely wasted my time on giving you a reply.. Sadly, it doesnt even seem you like read the replies..

    Good day to you SuperG..

    Sadly, there’s been coons like you two trying to convince my people that we had no “power” since we arrived on these shores.
    Thankfully, yours were the voices of the minority or we never would have gotten anywhere.
    Go peddle that BS to the white people that’ll pay you for it.
    There’s room for you both in Michael Steele’s new Republican Party.

    @RonRoyce…

    Yeah, this dude “SuperGenius01″ is an idiot with very limited mental capacity…

    Somehow his simplistic brain allows him to think he’s the only one who’s thought of what he thinks is “original thinking”

    Some folks are that pathetic… But you are right, Ron… The best thing is to leave ignoramuses like SuperGenius01 alone… Let them delude themselves ranting about “empowerment” on an online forum, LOL…

    It’s sad, really sad that a grown adult like this supergenius could not answer a single question that was posed to him, LOL…

    @AfricanSpeech
    You preach from the pulpit of black powerlessness and I’m the idiot?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/AfricanSpeech/ AfricanSpeech

    @SuperGenius…

    You are an idiot because…

    1. You couldn’t answer simple questions directed to you
    2. Rather than own up to not being able to answer them, you resorted to personal attacks
    3. You deluded yourself into believing (in your one-track mind) that disagreeing with your half-baked and incomplete statements is a treasonable offence and somehow (again in your deluded mind) that we are advocating black helplessness…

    Are you a fan of FOX NEWS? Because your tactics sure sound like they came straight out of there…

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/SuperGenius01/ SuperGenius01

    @AfricanSpeech
    Do you or do you not believe that black people are “powerless”?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/AfricanSpeech/ AfricanSpeech

    @SuperGenius01…

    Can you answer the questions I posed to you first?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/CaliFemme23/ CaliFemme23

    SuperGenius01, Something is wrong with you…I don’t think you are even reading the posts that the brothers have directed toward you. Ronroyce and AfricanSpeech have given you ample example of the fact that black people DO NOT have the ‘power’ on these shores, as you put it.

    Again, why are there no mega factions/black companies?

    Why are there absolutely NO african/black curriculum in our school systems to educate OUR children?

    Why didn’t the likes of Oprah, Tyler Perry and Obama ‘rise’ without those white sponsors and string pullers?

    Trust and believe, IF there is anything that black people seemingly accomplish, It was ALLOWED…

    Black people do not control the economy therefore they do not have the POWER…

    Thanks man.

    Loved this statement…

    “RK Byers – Not sure where you get the inspiration for some of your articles, but a recommendation would be to stop getting it from there.”

    Made me ROTFLMBO…

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/AfricanSpeech/ AfricanSpeech

    @CaliFemme…

    Thanks.

    But I have been trying to get this dude to think first before jumping to conclusions but he came in with a mindset like no one else has already had this idea of “becoming champions”…

    The point is that yes, blacks may not have the INFRASTRUCTURAL POWER but have the PEOPLE POWER and what is INFRASTRUCTURE with people? Nothing… That is the only real power that matters… That’s why no matter what differences of opinion we have, we must think first, what is at stake here? Is there a common objective? Do we all agree on a common objective if any? We may disagree on aspects but that should not be the focal point…

    It is easy to beat an infrastructure by changing the mindset of the people… Right now, black america is caught inbetween wanting to be accepted by white america and also wanting to assert their african roots or identity in some form or the other… The thing is that the answer is not an easy one because people have to decide if they want to be in this system as consumers, constantly receiving scraps from the table or to become producers and calling the shots…

    Just imagine if more black american companies who are having a tough time in the US decided to make links outside the US in places like Africa and elsewhere, imagine if we put aside our differences and created business services and products for us by us across the globe… Just imagine…

    Actually this is happening but still not fast enough…

    I don’t know if you guys have heard of Nollywood, which has become the second largest film industry in the world behind bollywood. It was started by Nigerians who wanted to make films that showed them as they are… Now today, Nollywood films are watched and supported by black people all over the world and Hollywood is quaking because these cats don’t waste the amount of money hollywood does and their profit/loss ratio is very high… Now imagine if all those talented Black American and African actors put their heads together and created movie production companies and hired each other’s acting talent, why would you need hollywood again when you have access to the largest viewing market in the world?

    For ‘Supergenius01′ and any/every other black person who feels that white people don’t have it in for blacks at every turn and chance they get…I just received this note from a white guy on this site…While he’s hungrily hunting for black p*ussy, he still felt the need to drop me a note on just how he feels about black people and what they mean to this awful ass country…

    Subject: Black People Contribute So Much

    There are an estimated 1.5 million Black men in prison and another 3.5 million on probation. Black males make up more than 70 percent of the total prison population, even though they make up only 6 percent of the U.S. population.

    Although blacks are 12% of the population in reality it is just 2% of the blacks that commit 50% of the murders and a greater percentage of other crimes. Consider: black females – 6%. Blacks from zero yrs. to 12 yrs. and black males from 50-100 years commit an infinitesimal percentage of the crimes. Therefore we are left with two percent. If we eliminate crimes committed by this two percent from the U.S. statistics our country compares very favorably with all Western countries. Fact — blacks kill 7 times more than whites kill. Fact — blacks kill whites 20 times more than whites kill blacks. Fact — blacks mug or commit group crime against whites 50 times more than whites commit against blacks. Fact — blacks rape white women 2000 (yes 2000) times more than whites rape black women. In New York City, about 300 white women are raped by blacks every year BUT there has not been a black woman raped by a white male in anybody¢s memory (going back over 20 yrs.) Consider: Al Sharpton had to go upstate New York to find a hoax and that was almost 20 years ago. (Source NYT 4/22/05)

    According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics 2004 report (released May 2006), blacks commit 54 percent of the homicides in America even though they constitute only 12 percent of the population.

    An individual black male is seven times more likely to commit murder than an individual white male. It so happens that black felons commit 43 percent of aggravated assaults, 66 percent of armed robberies, 27 percent of rapes and 85 percent of interracial crimes of violence, mainly against whites (this last figure from a Justice Department report 2003). However, it’s not just in the United States. The greatest dicators in recent years have emerged in Africa. People like Idi Amin of Uganda, Hastings Kamuzu Banda in Malawi, Mobutu Sese Seko, in Zaire, self-anointed Emperor Bokassa of the Central African Republic, Mohammed Saidi Barre in Somalia, Sani Abacha of Nigeria, Robert Mugabe in Zimbabwe — the list is endless

    Why am I even dealing with you “powerless” people? Just have your white bosses get back @ me.

    Nice save w/ that Infrastructure Power vs. People Power. In the beginning, you were siding with RonRoyce that we have NO power.
    There’s hope for you yet, Son.
