NYPD thugs kill unarmed black man and someone recorded the whole thing.

To some people, yes. It's the same thing when you say a black person sounds white(not you, but the saying) or you don't act black. It's been said here a few times. And I've been told that several times in my lifetime. If a person acts ignorant, they're called acting black. Case in point; Justin Beiber. If a black person speaks with intelligence, he's talking white. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acting_white

Remember a few months ago? You said you went to a mall in Atlanta I think. And you were surprised at what you saw, black people who didn't act the part. I think because of where you live and what you've seen, you're subconsciously projecting that.

Why as a white person do I have to answer for an idiot like justin Beiber. Why am I accountable for what he does,

Because we're accountable for anything a black person does.

LOl ok and and most white folks would rather hire a violent felon than a black man, although you did not have a seconds problem finding a job, or people that would accommodate waiting on you to retire. I guess that is like racist america electing black president. It was a accident

You do realize that two black people making it through the system doesn't mean racism is gone?

In the Government sector, anti-discrimination policies are more enforced. I left off my ethnicity, because I wanted to earn the position without the benefit of some AA program when I am more than qualified. This is why you have more minorities from the military that go into the civil service when they get out/retire. http://www.solidarity-us.org/site/node/2604

One example reported in a front page story in The New York Times entitled, “In Job Hunt, even a college degree can’t close racist gap (December 1, 2009),” notes that many Blacks are altering their names to sound more “white” to get interviews.

A study published in the American Economic Review reports that applicants with Black-sounding names received 50% fewer callbacks than those with white-sounding names.

Here's one's lady personal account:

http://selfuni.wordpress.com/2013/12/29/unemployed-black-woman-pretends-to-be-white-job-offers-suddenly-skyrocket/

Two years ago, I noticed that Monster.com had added a “diversity questionnaire” to the site. This gives an applicant the opportunity to identify their sex and race to potential employers. Monster.com guarantees that this “option” will not jeopardize your chances of gaining employment. You must answer this questionnaire in order to apply to a posted position—it cannot be skipped. At times, I would mark off that I was a Black female, but then I thought, this might be hurting my chances of getting employed, so I started selecting the “decline to identify” option instead. That still had no effect on my getting a job. So I decided to try an experiment: I created a fake job applicant and called her Bianca White.

First, I created an email account and resume for Bianca. I kept the same employment history and educational background on her resume that was listed on my own. But I removed my home phone number, kept my listed cell phone number, and changed my cell phone greeting to say, “You have reached Bianca White. Please leave a message.” Then I created an online Monster.com account, listed Bianca as a White woman on the diversity questionnaire, and activated the account.

That very same day, I received a phone call. The next day, my phone line and Bianca’s email address, were packed with potential employers calling for an interview. I was stunned. More shocking was that some employers, mostly Caucasian-sounding women, were calling Bianca more than once, desperate to get an interview with her. All along, my real Monster.com account was open and active; but, despite having the same background as Bianca, I received no phone calls. Two jobs actually did email me and Bianca at the same time. But they were commission only sales positions. Potential positions offering a competitive salary and benefits all went to Bianca.

At the end of my little experiment, (which lasted a week), Bianca White had received nine phone calls—I received none. Bianca had received a total of seven emails, while I’d only received two, which again happen to have been the same emails Bianca received. Let me also point out that one of the emails that contacted Bianca for a job wanted her to relocate to a different state, all expenses paid, should she be willing to make that commitment. In the end, a total of twenty-four employers looked at Bianca’s resume while only ten looked at mines.
