Have caucations ever invite black to go drink after work?

In the work place caucation will work with black, because it is necessary to carry on business. After work, the circumstances allows one to be more free to do as he please, and there is no "corporate behavior" restrictions that control behavior. What happens after work is that caucation will hang with his buddies, other caucations. Even though caucations will never admit it, but they do look at people based on color. Because someone is another color, caucation will have less reason and interest to introduce themselves with the motivation of making friends with someone that is considered outside their social circle based on race. I have seen it very often as a colored person, because it happens everyday in my perception. It may not occur to caucations that they do this, they see no problem, because they do not have to carry on each day having to interact with someone outside of their "white" race. But we do, we have to cross that color line to interact with them.

Learn to spell, ok? If you like a person, what difference does it make as to his/her color? If we don't learn to pull together as Americans - not "Irish-Americans, "Polish-Americans or"African Americans" then this nation will be a "house divided against itself" %26amp; will crumble. We are all in this world, together %26amp; if you reach out to others, you may be surprised at how many friends you make %26amp; haow much fun you can have. Personally, as a Caucasian, I feel that Blacks hang together %26amp; hate Whites, so I am often afraid to try, but I do anyway. Peace %26amp;Good luck!
Reply:that can still happen by choice. but it is going bye bye fairly quicky as peole get more used to being with people of differnt skin colors and faiths. the word is geting smaller after all. more fights between diferent races in ths country have more to do with weither or not yo like or dislike an indivual.except in young male ad femals there is still a lot of fighing to see hows the king or queen of the walk.

HOWEVER...





Caucasians (yeah, that's really how it's spelled) are not the only ones who "hang with his buddies". The truth of the matter is, people in general like to associate with people with whom they have things in common. What's really hard to grasp sometimes is that "race" may not be the only issue. Is there a socio-economic divide that has not been considered in your equation???





It has to start somewhere... if you are bothered by the fact that people don't cross the racial divide, then you should cross it... dare to be the one who rises above racial stereotype and segregation and reach out to someone of another race.





I'm not sure where you live... but there are plenty of places that my gf (yeah... she's white) and I go where we see lots of groups of people of varying races congregating together. Maybe you should try new surroundings. Indianapolis is nice this time of year.
Reply:I see none of this where I live. When work is over, the color of the person or his/her status in the corporate world means nothing. We go out to eat, drink, go to each other's homes, babysit each other's kids, etc. and we don't consider color at all. I have interest in all races and cultures and I wish this racist crap would just stop. Once we get to where color/culture doesn't matter anymore, someone brings it up. I hope this doesn't continue where you live. I am caucasion, my best friend is black--and not African American, according to her, because she's not from Africa...she's black, I'm white, and her b/f is Korean and mine is Native American. Races, colors, cultures--they make us great, so what's the problem? If you have to cross a color line outside of work then you're in the wrong place, hon.
Reply:As a white person, we also have to cross that line to interact with you; however, I don't mind at all. One of my greatest relationships is interracial and the joy and fun of being together and sharing our experiences and life in general is rewarding for us both. Admittedly, when I go to her home, I get stared at and take a lot of cat calls, etc and I even get some slurs that I do not appreciate. She does not go through that coming into my home however, as I've told my neighbors that I would not tolerate such insensitivity and that I respect their friends and I expect the same in return. When our children were younger we both took a lot of heat for allowing our children to play together. But we grew up best friends. The only thing I did learn - was we couldn't share a hair brush - her afro-sheen (which is what it was called at the time) did strange things to my baby-fine blond hair - but we laughed and went on. We had choices and it was not easy to be friends in the 70's without a lot of crude and ill-mannered people's remarks and unfortunately I think it has become worse with time not better - so all the teaching and preaching of multi-culturalism hasn't changed a thing. People who want to be racist will be and those who don't won't be.
Reply:They just don't like you-your colour/race has nothing to do with it.
Reply:sounds like you see what you choose to see


individuals are responsible for thier individual behaviour no matter what their race
Reply:You could invite some blacks to you house to have watermelons after work. They all would come over!
Reply:I am just about as white as a girl can be when it comes to my race.... but my friends come in all colors, shapes, religions, and sexual orientations.





And by the way, sometimes it is true, people stick together with other people they share common traits with. Notice that I said people... its not just a white problem. We all ''group'' up.
Reply:Um... I've spent a great deal of social time with black people. Methinks you're stuck back in the 50s, man.
