Adrianne Curry is ranting on her Myspace page about her not being a racist and why having Black History month is racism against all other races.
This is gonna be hard guys. I LOVE the comedians on BET. I also LOVE the fact that they play my favorite show of all time, In Living Color. However, I do not believe in seperating ANY RACE in America. WE ARE AMERICANS! How dare we have Black History Month! In my eyes, the Native Americans deserve it MUCH more, seeing how we destroyed their ENTIRE SOCIETY. There are hardly any of them left! They also have been proven to have the WORST living conditions on their reservations. I want AN AMERICAN HISTORY MONTH. One where we learn about EVERY race, ALL OF OUR LEADERS, EVERYONE! I think by having a month dedicated to one race, and not one for any other, is RACIST. Every fund set up to only help people of one race is SICK and RACIST.
Yes, I get it. Black people were slaves here once. You know what? That does suck some major balls, however, it is time to move the fuck on. Do we hear the Jews crying that they were made slaves for thousands of years? Do we hear them whine that they should OWN the pyramids in Egypt because THEY broke their backs making them? Do we hear them bitch and moan about Hitler, etc? (my hubby is a Jew)Nope, we dont. It’s time for us to UNITE AS ONE. I do not think that singling out one race, giving one race opportunities to go to college (I know a TON of poor white.asian, indian, american indian, etc etc that could use that too!), giving one race the EXCUSE to blame things on others for being whatever nationality they are, is a good way at making sure we NEVER kill racism.
I am over this shit. WE ALL CAME FROM ONE BLACK WOMAN FROM AFRICA, THAT is our EVE! It has been proven by science, and I stand by it. If any other race had a chanel dedicated to just them, we would think it was racist. If any other race demanded a month be set aside for ONLY them, they would be considered racist. I am NOT living by this double standard any longer.
Think I am racist? I am not. I know what racism is. I dated a guy named “Justin” in Junior high. Nothing serious, but I really liked him. He was the blackest of black…BEAUTIFUL skin, kinda like Alex Wek’s. He was handsome, and athletic, etc. I was called a nigger lover. But you know what? I was called that by a whole 2 people out of a school with HUNDREDS of students. THAT is why I am NOT buying this racist shit anymore. Let us teach or children that there is NO DIFFERENCE! We are all human. I hope one day aliens land and try to kill us. Maybe THEN we would finally realize that WE are ONE.

Normally I don’t call another female a bitch, but this “BITCH”, has lost her mind. She must have forgotten that it was an African-American female who made her what she is today. She gave her a chance to be a top model and this is the thanks she gets. Wow, talk about bitting the hand that help fed your ass. You really need a reality check. It’s easy for you to say get over slavery but I don’t recall hearing you say any of your damn “family members were slaves” so get the fuck over it! A mind is a terrible thing to waste and evidentally you wasted your time and energy posting something as IGNORANT as that on your my space page. And so what, your husband is Jewish; you said that to say what?….. Some people really just don’t know what to say when they open their mouth! You really need to get a grip on life.
Further proof that models should be seen rather than heard:
1. I don’t know what planet Adrianne comes from, but I hear Jews complain about the Holocaust all the time. Did you know: 6 million Jews did not die during the Holocaust–about 4 million did. The other 2 million were composed of other groups like Christians who hid Jews, gays, Gypsies, and other ethinicities who barely get any recognition for their suffering.
2. Asians, Native Americans, Indians, etc. do have scholarship opportunities just for them.
3. Blacks aren’t the only ones who have months set aside for them. They are just more voacal in how they promote it. I guess she against Hispanic month and also Women’s History Month as well
4. The reason why we have said months is because we learn about white male history all year long. These months were created to highlight areas of history that do not get mainstream attention.
Darling Adreanne, you are not the meter stick by which we should judge the racial progress in this country. Since you are not Jewish, Black, Asian, Native American, or any other group that you mentioned (save poor and white), I think you don’t have any authority to comment on the racial condition of any.
I understand exactly what Ms. Curry-Knight was saying. I am Jewish - not once have I ever heard family/distant relatives rant about the Holocaust - maybe because as Very Sincerely Me stated, only 4 million of us died. When my son went to college, I saw the grant/financial aid opportunities for both blacks and others. 2 to 1 would be a vast understatement. I, as Caucasian, am a minority at work. I too would sincerely relish being able to call my boss racist when he’s a jerk or refer to co-workers as racist when we don’t agree, but I don’t have that luxury. I just have to “deal with it”. Oh and I am NOT racist, just tired of the minority within the African-American community that constantly complain and use their ethnicity as an excuse for all things negative in their life. In my opinion, racism is being perpetuated by the blacks, for without it, they’d have no excuses.
