Now The Man has a blackface to do his dirty work for him. The Black Congressional Cacus just gave 'Tom' an 'F' for his presidency so far. Colon Powell, Condelezza Rice, Barrack Obama. Black people can be assholes too. Obama--->Imperialist. The material conditions for Black people in the US are getting worse not better. Schools are more segregated than in 1969.

Why thanks pal. Coming from a person who would probably kill Derek Fisher if he got half the chance and has incredibly intolerant views of all Republicans and the right, I value your opinion.

Well, there used to be Boyle Heights, but not so much anymore. Anyway I'm gonna be honest and admit I only opened this thread because I saw "pot" in the title and didn't bother reading the words before it. Bummer.

Wait, it's not?

There may be places where it's pretty close (or closer) to reality, but they're usually infested by commies and other filthy people in blue states or even worse: abroad. So don't go there. And may I slip in the Immortal Tech quote du jour "They may even have a black President but he's useless, cos he'd does not control the economy, stupid."
Racial difference was institutionalized mainly due to economic interests (somebody's gotta cut that sugar cane/pick that cotton and I sure as fuck ain't going out into that scorching sun etc.) Then after a while, being black was equal to being at the bottom. The white indendured labourer's children had a better chance of making it upwards. And now people are still shocked to find they're looking at a brown president or a brown lawyer. Somehow not everybody's supposed to pursue their happiness or vocation. Some should just duck down and shut it, it seems.

In the early 80s, I was still looking forward to the robots and my own little plane and especially that machine that could make/cook anything, just push a button and out it comes. Thanks for bringing that up. I'm still bitter.

Your Guide to Flushing, Queens: A true New York melting pot with a booming Chinatown
By Nicole Lyn Pesce DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER
Saturday, November 7th 2009, 4:00 AM Flushing is a true New York City melting pot, calling itself home to everything from Middle Eastern markets to Korean cuisine. Sabo/News Flushing is a true New York City melting pot, calling itself home to everything from Middle Eastern markets to Korean cuisine. Downtown Flushing is the Big Apple’s second-largest Chinatown. Pedestrians bustle along on Main St. & Roosevelt Ave. Pokress for News Downtown Flushing is the Big Apple’s second-largest Chinatown.

Manhattan's M4 bus * Art to dry for: A laundermat installs a cycle of creativity * Arby's claims historic home of Gage & Tollner on Fulton Mall * World's Fair Pavilion now a landmark gets preservationist assistance * Collecting confetti for a decade: Secretary was MORE than ready for Yanks parade
Each Sunday, Your New York offers an up-close look at a city neighborhood. This week, take a trip along Flushing’s Main St. The offerings in this melting pot of Asian cultures range from Middle Eastern markets to Korean cuisine, but it’s the rapidly expanding new Chinatown that’s largely responsible for this nabe’s business boom.
1. Downtown Flushing is the Big Apple’s second-largest Chinatown, and the Main St. district is its lifeline. Both the 7 train and Long Island Rail Road have stations on the bustling block, drawing scores of shoppers and commuters to the chain stores and local shops that sport bilingual signs. It’s easy to forget you’re in New York. “Being here is like being back in China," says Carol Tseng, 58. “Everyone talks in Chinese. You can eat Chinese food. The signs are in Chinese. It feels like home."
2. Although most eateries in the heart of Flushing are Hong Kong-style Cantonese, the Taiwanese Taipan Bakery boasts two outposts along Main St. — compared to just one in Manhattan’s Chinatown. The authentic Taiwanese eats at 37-25 Main St. are sweet and cheap, with items like roasted pork pineapple buns for $1 and mousse cakes topped with fruit for just $2.75.
3. No trip to Flushing is complete without a taste of Peking duck, and Corner 28 (40-28 Main St.) boasts the best deal on fowl around. “One piece for $1," brags manager Dragon Cheng. “We’re the only ones in Flushing with that price." On a recent Monday afternoon, the place was packed, as locals lined up for $1 skewers of pork from the takeout window or loaded their trays for the $4.50 combo, which serves three dishes (including specialties like teriyaki Chilean sea bass) plus a free water and soup.
4. Visitors of all stripes visit the Five Star Beauty Salon (41-36 Main St.) for a quick trim and to catch up on local politics. “We get all different customers: Chinese, Spanish, Indian," says manager Jacqueline Lin, who’s lived here for more than 25 years. “It’s really a new Flushing."
5. Only on Main St. can you find a Buddhist temple next to a Halal meat market. The Guan Yin Temple (43-35 Main St.) looks like any other building from the outside, but behind its red door is a gorgeous sanctuary decked with golden idols, glowing lamps and saffron cushions. Group services are held every Saturday and Sunday by Master Ch’an Yun On and his assistant, Rev. Jing Zhi, in English and Chinese.
6. Flushing’s Little India is situated farther south along Main St., but the East Asian influence emanates from the newsstands and supermarkets along the way. “Franklin Ave. was once the dividing line between the Asian businesses and the Indian businesses," observes Sajit Sharma, manager of the Kabul Kabab House (42-51 Main St.). “But now, when people call and ask where my restaurant is, they say, ‘Oh, you’re in the New Chinatown!'?"
7. While the recession has hurt development in the district, the area is still a growing housing and commercial area. The Queens Crossing Mall opened last year, catering to increasingly wealthy Chinese and Korean immigrants. The Rockefeller Group is constructing Flushing Commons, a mixed-use development space downtown. “Major streetscape improvements are underway in the neighborhood," adds Faith Hope Consolo of Prudential Douglas Elliman, and new lights, signs, benches and plantings have been added throughout downtown.
8. Newcomers from Korea, Latin America and Russia have been moving into the nabe in greater numbers. Kim-Alexa Gatling, 18, takes a break from her job at Modell’s with Samuel Noailles, 20. Fellow local Anthony Harris, 31, has also witnessed his hometown’s transition. “I’ve seen the neighborhood change from bagels to Chinese laundry, but it’s changed for the better," he says. “It’s a great place to live. Rent is still cheap!"
This is one thing that irks me about many rap records, they flat out ignore the rest of society outside of their social circle.
If you'd make a list of non-young black males appearing as characters in rap songs by young black males, attractive women would crowd the top of the list, followed by police and mothers. Way down below you'd have children and the odd 'Chinese guy.'

I totally agree. But I think I understand how that happens. One thing that I have noticed about city kids is that their access and knowledge of other cultures is extremely limited. In NY, it's really their own fault (...well, their parents fault). But it happens all the time. So many city kids grow up rarely leaving their 8-10 block radius. The more affluent kids go on family vacations and are exposed to other cultures through their servants or maybe even through other classmates at their private schools. But the poor and middle class kids.....that 10 blocks is all they really know until they grow up and branch out.

WHAT melting pot? And WHO wants to melt in it?
Do you really want to melt together with ignorant people who do not know the difference between the constitution and the declaration of independence? Do you really want to melt together with people who are so full of hatred and losing their own appendexes because there is so much toxicity in their bodies that their own organs can not take it any more? Do you really want to melt in the same pot with all the racist and faschists in this (US) country?
I don't know about you, but I like to create my own pots. I like to top it with my pot.

It's the system which is a problem, where a tiny elite get everything, and set regular people at each others throats with a dog eat dog mentality pounded into their heads by TV, Movies and the Radio, and institutional schools. Societies that are collectivist in nature are happier societies. We should take Donald Trump and Rockerfeller, and Bushes and Clinton's and other oligarch's money away from them, and start over with a different economy and political system.

Agree! The system is broken! It's time for new one!
I tend to agree with Douglas Rushkoff when he says: "The economic model has broken, for good. It's time to stop pretending it describes our world."

I read the text on your link and it looks promiscing.
It's not just good arguments or good ideas which we have to make change, all though that is part of it. We live in a class society. Our Masters won't give up their positions of power with out a fight. Mao Tse Tung said: "Without a People's army the people have nothing." Not only is the every day workings of Capitalism a horror of boom and bust cycles, ruthless exploitation, endless wars, death squads, police terror, and torture chambers all over the world (mostly run by the US through proxies) 27 million slaves currently --the most in human history, not only are all these things prevelant--right now the planet is being polluted and our rescources are rapidly running out. Right now there is more plastics in the oceans than plakton, we only have 20% of forests left, and we are enduring the greatest species die of in 65 million years. Capitlism is destroying the planet. We need Socialism to replace Capitalism--this will only happen through armed conflict.
