In Out of Africa, the author describes her servants' reactions when an airplane landed near the farm. And she states

Quote :
"Natives dislike speed, as we dislike noise, it is to them, at the best, hard to bear. "


And this seems pretty true when you apply it to American black people. Black people walk slowly, they often show up late, and they generally seem not to be too concerned with getting anywhere fast. There aren't many black stock-car racers, for example. However, black people don't mind noise at all...black people love noise.

White people, on the other hand, far from disliking speed, embrace it. They are always very concerned with doing things quickly and efficiently, getting from point A to point B in as little time as possible, getting that project done before 9 a.m., making that traffic light. And white people, as a general rule, hate noise: they certainly don't embrace it.

I wonder about Asians, though? I don't think they love noise. And they certainly don't love speed, if their driving is any indication, although I do usually find that Asians are punctual. And I think they love efficiency.

there's no question that black folk can, in a race environment, move much faster than other folk, But my claim is that outside of a race environment, black people tend to be slower than other races, i.e. when they're just going about their lives, they're often holding up crackers on sidewalks, in hallways, etc.

still, I must confess, you have skilfully and dramatically dealt me a biiter, bitter blow, from which I may never recover. This may kill me. I need to crawl into bed now, grab some tissues and try to slop the bleeding in my side.

I'm not racist
black people tend to like loud noises..white people not so much.
white people tend to hurry...black people not so much
these statements are not racist...,they are simply disagreements between two different cultures

furthermore, the actions they address are basically neural.

If I'd said something like "Blacks and Latinos commit way more violent crimes, per capita, than whites." or
"Black and Latino children are almost singlehandledly responsible for the US 's educational crisis, since if we remove their scores and consider only those scores of the whites, America's scores shoot up into the top tier"
if you said one of these things, you'd be racist (not that either is true or logical).

but a like/dislike for speed/noise? that's not racist, that's just part of a race's national character.

I'm still bleeding

I think I said "holding up crackers" partly to bring variety to my terminology, partly for the strange pleasure of saying "cracker." but I admit it [i]does/i] look kinda racist when I go back and read it

I hate noise...barking dogs drive me crazy.

okay, lol ^

But I'm not proclaiming a universal truth here...I'm just remarking on a general trend. Black people make more than their fair share of noise. Of course, I have no evidence for this judgment except anecdotal evidence: but my own anecdotal evidence is pretty convincing (to me, anyway.) When I walk past the black hang-out spot on campus, there's always an increase in the local volume. At the World Cup Final in South Africa, a lot of fans brought vuvuzelas (noise-making horns) and blew them at games; fans had never brought noise-makers in force to a World Cup before. Black people seem (to me) more inclined view noise, in general, as a neutral or even positive thing, whereas most white people seem to find it abrasive. And black people show, on the whole, an aversion to hurrying: when I see a black person walking along, he/she is usually just sauntering. There's even a thread vaguely about this side of the claim: message_topic.aspx?topic=593105

Of course, there are black people people who hotfoot it everywhere and loathe loud noises as much as I do: and there plenty of slow, loud white people. And there are also tons of black people/white people in whom the thesis ITT is basically ignored: folks who are no louder or hastier than average, regardless of race. But on the whole, this is a trend I have noticed about the world (or at least America.) Of course, I don't have any data to back up my conclusions, but they are consistent with my own observation. I'm sure that sounds ridiculous and illogical, but in the absence of scientific studies, it is the best I can offer.

I don't know what Africa this cunt was talking about. I'm in Africa right now, son, and black people do not mind speed and routinely drive at rates designed to kill with no helmet on "roads" that qualify only in the loosest sense. I saw my first dead body here and my first fresh human brains, because black people sure as shit don't mind speed.

However I'll grant her the noise. This country is loud as shit and it gets on my nerves.

So what exactly is wrong with noise? You are sounding like a douche. Black people are loud and slow blah blah blah?

ALSO

Quote :
"MADISON (WPR) If you're stopped for speeding in Wisconsin don't blame it on your gender, your race or your out-of-state license plate. That's the verdict of a recent study done by the Public Investigator team at the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
Reporters crunched and analyzed the 2008 data for speeding tickets issued by the Wisconsin State Patrol. The results: both women and men stopped for speeding got off with warnings more than half the time, Black drivers were cited 10-percent more than whites, but the study showed ticketed blacks were driving faster than whites. Still, racial profiling expert John Lamberth says the data isn't precise enough to claim race as factor in the difference.
Meanwhile, the state Office of Justice Assistance (OJA) is gearing up to gather more precise data on racial profiling in traffic stops. Director David Steingraber says following legislation passed this fall, his office is writing up rules that police departments will have to follow in recording race information in every stop they make.
The ticketed drivers with the biggest beef are from Illinois. The study found 60-percent of Illinois drivers who were pulled over got tickets compared to 40-percent of Wisconsin drivers who were stopped. But the study also found the Illinois drivers were driving faster."

JeffreyBSG, let me try to illustrate what's happening with this .gif

1. Your posts on the topic at hand are April. You believe you've come up with a profound observation and are excited to proclaim it to TWW.

2. Your actual reasoning on the matter is what's happening with Andy in the background.

good...I'm glad to have at least half my claim backed up by a first-hand source

^^
intrinsically, nothing. Sorry to sound like a douche. I'm pointing out cultural differences (as I perceive them,) by way of conversation...I didn't want to be offensive/personal. At this point, in light of ^^ and ^^^, I am prepared to abandon my "speed" hypothesis.

you've contributed even less of intellectual value to this thread than I have. Just insulted my intelligence and posted a gif that somebody else made.

No one had ever, EVER, brought drums, flares, or horns to a World Cup before. And certainly no Brazilians had ever brought entire samba drumlines.

EVER!

I expected this thread to be about different types of hardcore music, like "white people hate noizecore, black people hate speedcore" (and that would be true only because most people, regardless of race, find all kinds of hardcore music distasteful...BTW IIRC nearly all producers of hardcore music are white).

only thing he's right about is black pedestrians. often moving slowly with little apparent regard for automobiles, they're like Chapel Hill residents, except black.
