You Mustn't Call Whites Black "The Kent State University chapter of a national sorority is on probation over some comments that have angered some of the university's black students, NewsChannel5 reported. The controversy surrounds an award given out at the Chi Omega formal last Saturday. A student who was catering the event heard an award given out for the "blackest Chi Omega." Candace Poole said she was shocked to hear applause in the room as a white member accepted the award. To me, the "award" conveys no clear meaning, though I would have probably smiled, assuming it to be self-parody. It is interesting to note that the whole sorority has to undergo racial sensitivity training, rather than the individuals involved. It is providing a notable opportunity for everyone to pile on the presumed oppressor class. And what happened to black pride? Did I miss something while I was out of the room? Is black pride now "out"? Old dodo that I am, I kinda thought blacks might think that being black could be a good thing. Oh well! I live and learn.

I think that was a example of black pride I think this is one of those cases where culture needs to be explained when some one in the black race calls a black person the whitest black person they know it is a insult not a joke or a compliment
