My wife used to be "gung-ho" for Blacks. She ran the entire Black segment of her tutoring company... (no one else wanted the hassle) something like a dozen schools, and a half dozen churches and rec centers... not to mention around 30 private homes. After 8 years the county gave up on them, and although she still tried to help, her frustration level was almost through the roof. When the funding stopped, the tutoring stopped. She told me probably only 10% of the participants in the program really gave a hoot about their children. She felt the vast majority just saw it as a free after-school babysitting program.
Admittedly, the small faction were great, and she just beamed about them. But it was an uphill battle to try and rescue the rest of the children from their own parent's lack of interest or concern in most cases. I felt so sorry for her as she would literally cry over the whole situation sometimes. But I refrained from saying, "I told ya so."
It is hard to maintain a positive view when you seldom see more than a slim 10% that seem to give a hoot, themselves.

Black Churches were created because black people could not attend white churches. It is my beleif that all are welcome to attend a black church today it is a matter of choice. 
My church has some of everybody. Black, white, Puerto Rican etc.
As Far as Black American pageants the same reason.

Well, the church I consider "my church" is full of former drug addicts, alcoholics and criminals. Color is no issue there as we who attend understand that satan doesnt care about color and neither does Jesus. God is working so many miracles there that I sometimes forget it isn't like that everywhere else. As a former addict, alcoholic and criminal myself I am blessed in that when I am tempted to judge another human I need only remember how much I have been forgiven of and that temptation passes. Thank you Jesus!
You would not be racist if you started a Irish, or German, to just use examples, pageant.
A white pageant, I am not saying you would be racist, but isn't that a little to general?
And before you say but blacks do it. That they don't break it down to a geographical area, like Irish or German, they do, African American.
They could probably break down even further, like Europeans do with Irish and German, but they can't, because they, for whatever reason, over the generations, lost their specific geographical identity when they were forced into slavery.

I have like close to zero level tolerance for any parents that abuse or neglect their kids. It just gets me livid. My daughter is a teacher in a primarily black neighborhood in Brooklyn, and the school is about 90 to 95% black, She tells me of incidents where the kids (kindergarten and first grade) come into school and say there mommy or daddy did this or that (I am not talking about positive stuff here). Of course to many whites (and Hisoanics, and Asians) do the same thing.
It just turns my stomach

The constant drumbeat in the media to try and whip up racial hatred toward one another is a major component.
Of course, ultimately it is satan who is laughing and happy when human beings divide themselves by something as silly as skin color. We KNOW that the only lasting solution is Jesus Christ, and love. Why are we so eager to give satan even a little victory. Just say NO, I'm not going to engage in racial division.
To prove just how much the media and satan wants to push racial hatred, how many of you knew that the Minnesota police officer wasn't even white? Don't be played. Look to Jesus and love everyone.

Major media outlets buried the alleged Asian ethnicity of the cop who shot a black man in Minnesota Wednesday night, after featuring or even highlighting the ethnicity of the white cop who shot a black man in Louisiana just a day earlier.
In their coverage of the Louisiana shooting, major media outlets quickly identified the cop as white, even going so far as to put his race in the headline of one story. But while covering the Minnesota shooting, media outlets buried the fact that the woman who witnessed the shooting identified the cop as Asian.
Here’s a side by side comparison of how major media outlets treated the race of these two cops:
In regard to the Louisiana shooting, The Washington Post ran the headline: “Outrage After Video Captures White Baton Rouge Police Officer Fatally Shooting A Black Man.” But when the same outlet covered the Minnesota shooting, the cop’s ethnicity was only referenced about half way through their stories article.
ABC ran an article that identified the cop in the Louisiana shooting as white in the beginning of the story. In their coverage of the Minnesota shooting, however, the police officer’s alleged ethnicity is buried half-way down the article.
NBC also identified the cops in the Louisiana shooting as white in the lead paragraph of their article. But when discussing the Minnesota shooting, NBC ran an article in which the Reynold’s ethnicity statement is not mentioned at all.
The Wall Street Journal took seven paragraphs in an article they featured to identify the cop in the Minnesota shooting as “Asian-American.” By comparison it took four paragraphs to identify the cop as white in the Louisiana shooting.
The New York Times’ article on the Minnesota shooting only identified the cop as Asian until mid-way through the story as well. But their coverage on the Louisiana shooting identified the cop as white five paragraphs into the article.
Of course, ultimately it is satan who is laughing and happy when human beings divide themselves by something as silly as skin color. We KNOW that the only lasting solution is Jesus Christ, and love. Why are we so eager to give satan even a little victory. Just say NO, I'm not going to engage in racial division.
