Facebook - Groups of Interest
 
I was just sitting at my computer, like I am now, doing not alot and I see a notifcation come through..

Dee joined the group Black Unity Group!- We need to support each other. Stop hating one another! · Comment · Like

Now Dee is my friend and ofcourse she is Black.. This is fine, my question is though, How would this be interpretated by the "facebook community", If it was myself joining a group:

Charles joined the group White Unity Group!- We need to support each other. Stop hating one another! · Comment · Like

I spoke to the girl, 'Dee' and she seems to agree with me. Its just funny how different origins of skin colour can do some things while others doing it, MAY or may not be, interpretated in another way.

I'm pretty sure the Black Unity Group would understand.

I doubt it, it's a crime to be white these days (atleast in some peoples eyes)

When people spit on you, it's not because you're white.

"MOBO Awards" - Music of Black Origin

I'd love to see them try to push through MOWO awards :)

Similarly, I've often wondered if we were to spread pictures of George W Bush super-imposed on to a variety of different chimps... and then do the same with Barack Obama... would the 2nd be any more racist than the 1st?
