Korver asks:
How can I — as a white man, part of this systemic problem — become part of the solution when it comes to racism in my workplace? In my community? In this country?
Lebron responds:
Salute my brother!! Means a lot. And like you said I hope people listen, just open your ears and listen.

Holy shit, here's what Lynnwood Bibbens had to say!!!!
This was extremely well written and what really got me is I can tell the emotional turmoil you were having trying to write it. Empathy is the one word that America needs right now. We all have to put ourselves in the other person's shoes and really listen. It will save US!

Korver is a cuck and a wanker.
Listen up, I'm European, I don't give 2 shits about american racial sensitivities, I just want to watch ball without a barely-literate narcissist like Lebron lecturing me on politics.
I'll say it again, I'll watch a fully white league in the US, even if it is less quality, if it means I don't have to be subjected to this insufferable black "wokeness". If I get to hear music other than rap, to watch cheerleaders look like 90s Lakers Girls (slim, blonde, sexy) instead of thunder thigh twerkers.
Careful what you wish for Lebron! You have it pretty good. I think soon white people simply won't care.

If the quote in the OP is accurate, Korver literally said being white is “part of the systemic problem.”
That is excruciatingly cringeworthy.
Racial guilt is something low-IQ whites do as an attempt to falsely signal a high IQ identity. Many black “sjws” are understandably trying to milk that guilt for as much preferential treatment as they can. Hey, if white cucks are gonna make it rain with guilt offerings, why not stick a hand out and grab a few? Cant even blame them.
SJW’s are low IQ beta men who are trying to compensate by turning passivity and obsequiousness into a virtue, because it’s their natural quality anyway. If you take minorities out of the equation, leftists are simply the bottom toer outcasts, weirdos, pansies and weenies of society. This is why they posture themselves so desperately as the “rescuers” of minority feelings. It’s their own fantasy of being someone’s hero. Of being needed. Without it, the truth is people who identify as liberal are STATISTICALLY less manly (or feminine for women) and less attractive. Without their sjw identity and motivation, the realty is theyre just society’s bottom feeders.
All the buzzwords and rheroric surrounding “wokeness” is like worldbuilding in a fantasy novel. They make up words and concepts and “ideas” that have no sensible basis in reality, but they bleet it enough within an echo chamber until it feels like the truth.
So awkward.

If the majority of white people didn't realize racism is wrong there would still be slavery. Just like how women wouldn't get to vote if most men didn't realize it's ****ed up not to let women vote.

The north was whipped into an abolitionist frenzy NOT because the average person gave a single FVCK about racism, slavery, or the plight of blacks. They wanted to feel superior to southerners.
It was a moral trend that made one group feel superior to their cultural rivals. Just like anti abortion nutjobs on the right or sjw freaks on the left do today. People staking a claim to superior “enlightenment” and forcing others to recognize it.
When freed blacks got up north they often encountered “sundown towns” which were neighborhoods with signs saying “we better not find any blacks around here after dark.” Abe Lincoln didnt consider blacks to be people like whites. He said it a hundred times before being president. Emancipation was a political move to satisfy a self righteous, pretentious northern voting base.
Easiest way to mask your own moral shortcomings is to highlight those of others. People have been doing it since the beginning. Slavery wasnt about “whites realizing racism was bad.” We see it that way because we grew up in post slavery times, it’s ingrained in us that its bad.
It was about the same shit today’s conflicts are about. People caring about THEIR OWN social projection, while pretending to care about unborn babies or poor crackhead negroes in the projects. Babies and blacks are just something people want others to SEE them pretending to give a **** about. Most people are total followers so once these pretenses take hold, you get entire regions of people bleeting the dogma.

The funniest thing about black people is they are always going on about how proud they are with their african heritage...ugh black africans can't ****ing stand black americans.

I've read a few biographies of Lincoln and I didn't get that impression. From what I heard he understood slavery was wrong from an early age. He had to work for his father for free. He also said racist stuff during campaigns because he knew it would destroy his chances of winning an election. It's similar to Hillary and Obama saying "marriage is between a man and woman" not so long ago.
I don't believe Lincoln was a racist. He understood the absurdity of it. I'd like to know what biographers really believe he was a racist.
I dont believe anyone portrays him as having virulent animosity toward blacks. In fact Im sure he harbored no such thing. But everyone is a product of their time. After slavery, many abolistionists believed in “separate but equal.” Others wanted to buy slaves boat tickets back to Africa.
These were the people who pushed to end slavery... yet by today’s standards their support of segregation or send-em-back policies would be considered klan doctrine.
Abe was considered a ****** lover in his time. Today he would be considered a cross burner for those same views. So was he a good guy or bad guy? Was he a racist or not a racist? Fact is he was just one of millions of Americans in his generation who had an opinion. Didnt make him good or bad. The guy was a politician. He didnt care about blacks as much as the legends of today like to portray. He was part of a moral movement of his time, just like many people are part of today. Dont mistake people’s moral crusades as evidence of their righteousness
The North couldnt simply say “We wont tolerate slavery here. And disagree with what youre doing over there. But states rights are the foundation of the country, we will agree to disagree.”
They hd to fight with southerners to prove they were better, superior, and RIGHT. Just like all the partisan fighting you see to this very day. Blacks were just a convenient excuse for breaking out the soapbox. The average new englander didnt give 1 single **** about no ******.

I was in the south back when the klan being at like....a flea market or out front of a super market wouldnt be that unusual. You just walk past. They werent hurting people or usually even saying anything that offensive.
It was almost always other whites shouting them down and getting into conflicts. We mostly ignored them...but when I got older id listen to them a bit. Had a fairly long conversation with a guy in the whole robe and hood and all at a place called the Anderson Jockeylot(doesnt that sound like a place the Klan would be?).
The klan doesnt yell about ******s and jews in person in my experience. Im sure that goes on in meetings but they have to put a polite face on in public.
The klan in person sounds less racist than a lot of these ISH types.
Kenneth for one...waaaaaaaaaaaaaay more racist online than ive ever heard any white person be in person Klan or otherwise.
We werent afraid of the klan when I was a kid. They didnt do anything. I missed that era. The klan wasnt that dangerous just....someone to laugh at. That said....when they would do the real rallies and shit on football fields or whatever at night we wouldnt go over there.
Not a fear thing just....clearly not a place to go. I doubt anything would have happened if we did though.

Westbrook engages and looses his professional focus, tells the fan I"ll f@rk you and your wife up. Basically threatening physical violence, then turns it into racist thing and gets the fan permanently banned.
And Thabo, himself admitted he back chatted to the cop, repeatedly. Basically got himself into a scuffle that caused his leg to be broken. He could have just moved on, gone back to his hotel and chilled. Because he is NBA got the whole thing turned into "I'm the victim."

Blacks have proven they don't mind prison; when I was in county jail for 45 days, they were happy there and when a new one came in, they were all happy to see each other.

And I notice blacks are very picky when it comes to confrontation, so it definitely isn't just whites.

And to the poster who said Africans hate African Americans, you're right but it's not also black people in America they hate. They hate British blacks too, i'm Nigerian and i still remember as a kid my mum and dad shitting on British blacks and Jamaicans.
Africans have this fixation on education and they seem to have a dislike of black people who waste the great opportunities they have compared to black people in Africa. A couple of months ago i found out how my family back home is doing after not being in contact with them for years, they weren't doing great. Quite frankly it made me appreciate what my parents did moving me to the UK, i shudder to think how my life would have turned out if I stayed in Nigeria. Shit might not be perfect in the UK/America but compared to the alternative, I'll take it.

Well a lot of black people don't know that fact, a lot of them think that white people just caught the slaves in nets, when in fact most of the time, tribes would go to war against each other and the tribe that won would sell the conquered tribespeople to the slave traders, for guns and stuff to use to capture other tribes.

You all realize that people have been saying Africans sold Africans for the last 100 years of this discussion right?
You realize pretty much all black people over 25 have seen roots....often in school...and that Roots showed them being captured by other Africans right?

Right there.
That shits in every form of media on the subject.
So why are you always crying racism then?
America is one of the least racist countries in the world.

Well this might be common knowledge to you but from the black people i've met, they all seem to think Europeans just came into Africa like it was a grocery store and caught slaves

White progressives are the biggest problem.
As a kid in the 80’s and 90’s I grew up with The Cosby’s, Eddie Murphy, Sanford and Son, martial arts, R&B, Boyz in the Hood and early Spike Lee movies as much as I did white shows, music or whatever. I never had any beefs with black people growing up. I understand there are issues that I’ve never had to deal with and all of that. But I’m not carrying the burden of people who did shit before I was even born.
White progressives keep pushing and pushing...

So why are you always crying racism then?
Even ignoring that its generally angry white people making the race topics in question.....
What would one thing have to do with the other even if I were always crying racism?
Really. What would the knowledge that some slaves were sold by africans have to do with any issue we have ever discussed being or not being racism? When have you even seen me suggest anyone is racist other than the people here talking up segregation and other nonsense? Have I ever made a topic about something being racist? Anywhere? Let me know if you think of one. i'll find it for you.
America is one of the least racist countries in the world.
What are you even talking about right now?
What about what I said has anything to do with that?

I just hate whites like stalker and Korver who bring down our average package size with their teeny 3-inch knobs. If it wasnt for them WE COULD compete for biggest package by race.
Listen man, a lot of white fellas like myself, and my mates in the Lebron Fam, are HUGE. We should be rivaling the Congolese in the global measurement charts. We deserve it. Weve EARNED it. We worked hard and bred selectively. But our short-dick brothers are holding us back with their thin lizzies. We always have to carry these guys. Considering the fact whites almost stack up to brothers WITH the stalkers and korvers accounted for... give us credit. Give us some ****ing credit. And dont act like we’re obligated to be our little brother’s keepers. Those dudes are just weighing us down. Altho not literally, obviously.

It's not about blame or burden. Nor does it need to be a political issue. It's just about seeing things from a different perspective. Korver saw how the same situation could be viewed so differently from two unique perspectives. That's all there is to it.
But it is about blame when you look at the larger picture.

Progressives have come around to blame the white man on what they would consider their key issues.
I don’t think progressives are largely being intellectually honest. When you try to be the moral authority while also being intellectually dishonest, it will rub people the wrong way.
Usually when you mention to a leftist that they’re anti-white rhetoric makes them hypocritical they will usually go with the “poor white people” mockery thing to deflect.
As for giving people a different POV, I would say that most people are against things that are harmful to black people as it relates to injustice.
My main point is that people have got so hamfisted with their activism that it has more negative than positive effects.
The idea that the left just wants other voices to be heard just doesn’t ring true since college campuses and left controlled platforms engage in censorship or they stifle debate.
One of the more interesting threads I've read here. I honestly thought most people here were retarded and incapable of having a relevant discussion.
For the record I'm white and have no ****ing white guilt at all. Nobody gave me shit. I grew up poor in a minority hood and a lot of the blacks didn't like me at all just because I was white. Oh, and my mom was too proud to get welfare or food stamps or any bullshit like that. But she made it and we made it.
It's not racism it's classism. Whites are the majority in america and they had a head start on hoarding cash. As more minorities make more money they'll look down on your broke ass no matter what color you are.
It doesn't suck to have a certain skin color. It sucks to be poor.
Let's see Korver lived in Paramount until he was twelve. Black population at the time was probably 10%, then moves to Pella, Iowa where the black population is less than .5%! Add in being 6'7" tall, handsome (IDK), and a star basketball player. Probably rich his whole life. He doesn't know anything about white privilege, he just knows privilege.

Ah, but you see my friend, black people are disproportionately poor because of institutional racism. So it isn’t just classism.

Now Kyle Korver is a victim of his own "white privilege". Poor him. Everyone is climbing over themselves to out-victim each other.
People are too busy feeling to think.
We hear about the one white person that says something racist to one player. We don't hear about the white neighbors that welcome these rich, black negroes into their homes, communities and lives. We don't ever hear about the white kids at the private school that are best friends with their black children.
Let's say America looks like a typical NBA crowd. You may have 5 real white racists...and 30,000 that love and support the black players. Thousands wiling to pay money to wear jerseys. Even after realizing their favorite player beat his wife 2 weeks ago and abandoned his children. A few hundred of them may even pledge their life defending the legacy of a couple of the players. Does this mean the crowd is racist? Does the NBA foster racism?
Kyle almost got me teary-eyed thinking how hard it must be to fly around the country with these millionaire black victims as he is forced to stay at the best hotels, eat the best food and is cheered everywhere he goes while I assume the blacks are forced to sleep on the bus under government protection against the threat of racist mobs. That million dollar paycheck isn't worth all that.
Just because there is individual racism doesn't mean America is racist. I'm a grown man raised in the South and currently live in the Mid-Atlantic. I've never been called a ni**er in my life. I can't remember one overtly racist thing that has ever happened to me or my friends. My parents generation, yes, but not to anyone from my generation that I know of. Dated a white girl in high school and the only people that had a problem with it were some black people. Went to an HBCU in Atlanta because my mom was convinced white colleges were racist and would hold me down. Meanwhile, I saw my friends excel at those predominantly white schools. Never heard of any of them facing racism...no burning flags, no dead monkeys in front of their dorm rooms, no name-calling...nothing.
I'm not saying racists acts don't happen or there aren't racists in America, I'm saying that it's not the norm. And it's not the problem.
Blacks have a bigger problem -- accepting the truth. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Blacks keep voting for the same liberal policies while hoping that this time, this year things will be different. Blacks have voted overwhelmingly Democrat for the past 40 years. Blacks have voted at least 88% for Democrats the last 20 years.
Almost 90% of the black vote went to Hillary Clinton who actually said she admired Margaret Sanger. She once said of Margaret Sanger, “I admire Margaret Sanger enormously, her courage, her tenacity, her vision … And when I think about what she did all those years ago in Brooklyn, taking on archetypes, taking on attitudes and accusations flowing from all directions, I am really in awe of her.”
Margaret Sanger was a eugenist and a racist who actually presented before the Klu Klux Klan (which, by the way, were always fully, 100% DEMOCRAT). She received a dozen invites from the KKK. Sanger thought blacks were unfit for society so she tried to find ways to kill them off. Her most effective solution was PLANNED PARENTHOOD, which specializes in abortions. Ironic name. Where are 79% of all Planned Parenthood clinics today? Embedded in black neighborhoods. Her plan to kill off these unfit black babies is working powerfully today.
Here's a beauty...
It seems to me from my experience…that while the colored Negroes have great respect for white doctors they can get closer to their own members and more or less lay their cards on the table which means their ignorance, superstitions and doubts. We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population, and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members. -- Margaret Sanger, 1939
And there's more (https://www.lifenews.com/2015/02/23/7-shocking-quotes-from-planned-parenthood-founder-margaret-sanger/)...
Mrs. Clinton ADMIRED her. Admitted it publicly. What does it say about blacks that she can say this publicly and not fear that her black supporters would get offended? Instead we have "woke" social justice warriors like LeBron James (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isbW5RLIeDY) endorsing her. And icons like [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwkUERlnDUw"]Jay-Z and Beyonc

That's always existed though - then it transformed into white privilege. What you're talking about is "walking in someone else's shoes." Not white privilege.
