Humans doing human things. The racial undertones are unneeded.

9 years ago | Likes 98 Dislikes 53

Would you be saying there were racial undertones if they were all white? It's weird that we assume things like that.

9 years ago | Likes 29 Dislikes 4

Possibly. Although it would stand out less, just based on statistics.

9 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 3

Yes, I would. In fact in many ways that would be worse.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

That's the thing though. There are no racial undertones anywhere in the post. We just add them because everyone is black.

9 years ago | Likes 113 Dislikes 13

You may be right. It may just have to do with the times, it's either black or white. Not both. Which is unfortunate :(

9 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 2

People try to see racism wherever they can. Because it gives them something to complain about, even when it's not there.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

This is spectacularily correct.

9 years ago | Likes 13 Dislikes 3

Well that wouldn't be weird if we had a 100% black society. People of all races do heroic things that should be included here too.

It is literally impossible to have full representation in everything all the time.

Well it's fine if it's not. I'm just saying that's why the above poster said there are racial undertones.

You all are naive if you don't think this post was made for a racial political statement.

9 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 3

Speculations as to the author's intent, even with a high likelihood, are not relevant to the post itself, which is devoid of racial messages

Do you really think that it was not a conscious decision that everyone picked here is black?

9 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 5

I do believe it was a conscious decision. I also believe that has little to do with the content of the post itself.

9 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Well, the content of the post is all black kids, so in my opinion that makes the content of the post all black kids.

That was kinda deep. I always tell people we need to stop seeing race, yet first thing I noticed was they where all black. Thank you.

9 years ago | Likes 37 Dislikes 4

I noticed but it was more in a questioning whether or not other people just aren't as likely to perform these kinds of actions kinda way

Noticing race isn't the problem. Being overly focussed on it is the issue.
