The talks you are giving right here will do more than any protest ever done.
So you see stereotyping as a GOOD thing?
A-MEN!
@@suchabadkitty1293 Calm down, i think you're missing the point. Did she pick out someone and attributed the traits of race to them because of race? That would be stereotyping. What she did was generalize. Can't do without it, we wouldn't see the big picture without it. Categorization is inevitable to organize your thoughts, never mind the debating and presenting your idea to others.
She's right about color-blindness being a regressive thing. Pretending there is no difference among people of any different backgrounds is plain false. Ignoring differences is just stupid. I guess you're also american, as dogma about races and racism is so messed up in your nation, it's sometimes ridiculous reading it.
I didn't hear nothing offensive, and critique of society done honestly is generally a necessary thing for everyone. If loving, truthful, well thought trough discourse offends you, it is purely your, and only your problem. Not your fault, as media and society around you have etched these notions of offense and trigger words into your subcouncious from your birth. Getting over them an having a fresh view is your choice - take it or not. Just don't dis the very people trying to get our sick society to grow out of this bs. Now, that's stereotyping.
@@dannydetonator tells me to "calm down" then proceeds to write an entire triggered novel, AFTER stereotyping 330 million people! Brilliant! 🤣
So I'm an American, eh? Keep assuming, clown. Pull more nonsense out of your lower bowel. Let everyone know how ridiculous you are.
I dont need stereotyping explained to me by a triggered mess such as yourself, thanks. She stereotyped entire groups of people. Black AND white. Its just a fact, whether you believe it or not. Sounds like you're the one who has a problem.
Have a pleasant afternoon. Goodbye. 👋🏽😁
These statements? Ok,... nobody uses those shampoos. You think those are for whites? I think she is mad at the wrong people. Not all white people are oppressors. None of these issues seem color related to me. But she see seems extremely racist against whites. If you want good stuff on your hair, no matter your color, you go to a specialty shop. I don't cry, I just go. Period. Oh and btw I have at least one from every country and color in my family, and most people do, im all colors and races, so what am i. good luck Pushing hate about colors, none of us are pure im sure. Next
It’s ridiculous. That shampoo isn’t for me either. It isn’t for a race, it is for men!
You totally miss the point as usual😒
"Black people have never been rich in America" For someone so "woke" I'm shocked at how very little this woman knows about her history. There were places all over America that Booker T. Washington and W.E. Dubois labeled "Black Wall Street." Pre-Civil War there were free blacks in the North that were quite wealthy, and even post Civil War.
What happened to “Black Wall Street”?

Hoping sincerely you reached all the family in the room and at home, sister.
This was sooooo beautiful!!!!!
We all have to pretend to like people around us regardless of skin color. I found the comment about white people needing to love other white people regardless of how terrible white people really are, appalling . You are entitled to sell your home to whom ever you want and you don’t have to feel guilty because your parents left you an inheritance. As far as time is concerned , on time is on time and your own fluid interpretation does not dictate the reality of time. Hotels don’t have to get special shampoo for Black hair, neither do they have to get shampoo for oily hair or dyed hair or thin hair. The rest of the world is not responsible for internalizing the dynamics of your family or your community. It’s your responsibility to learn our common culture, and yes our common culture is heavily influenced by European Judeo-Christian Western values because the USA is and has always been a white majority. We don’t need to apologize for this reality. It’s dismissive and condescending to say white students in advanced classes are not really more intelligent or gifted. It may be that these classes should contain more Black and Brown students but this doesn’t mean we need to diminish the achievements of white students. If your kid’s friends were drinking, the probability of him drinking as well is rather high. Furthermore, police officers showing interest in your child is not a negative thing, unless that’s the spin you want to put on it. You didn’t say anything that substantiated the idea that the police were harassing your son. Oh and I’m not white.
Daaaaamn👍🏼 well said
Yes!!
A lot of what she said that I agreed with was overshadowed by her stereotyping and negativity. I mean just the title; imagine if someone had a talk called "Things black people dont know". That wouldnt fly for a second. But being racist against whites is fully allowed now.
Well said!
@@marcustwainius8031 Well said.
We as African Americans and Afro West Indians ...need our own Black economy...that is one of the solutions to these ingrained racist policies 🤔
I'm friendly with everyone. I don't need to be lectured about how I love others.
Ooookay
good bc its not about you
White guilt.
You said your 12 year old son was with kids that were drinking. Black or white they should get in trouble. & why can’t you buy a home in the neighborhood of your choice!? There are help wanted signs everywhere but nobody wants to work. My husband has gone to work everyday for 35 years so far, nothing is free, the people who go to work everyday are paying thee way for those who won’t work.
Your right. and i really don't believe her kid didn't drink with his friends . Just my thoughts. Many people today have this sense of entitlement for whatever reason . I have never heard of a police officer bothering a kid that was sitting at a bench studying, or drinking a soda with a hamburg., They just don't do it. Regardless of what color they are. What bothers me is the same as you. If people had jobs and were watching over their kids , making sue they studied etc. Telling them they have to respect adults . (Teachers , priests, police, parents, etc) it would help . instead of telling them they arent going to be treated the same as other races. Who could look at the a child and say that? Yea..if your going to be a gang member . go around robbing people, skipping school ..doesn't matter what race you are your not going to be too popular . There's no reason for all this race talk. It onlt creates problems that shouldn't be there . There's whites too that make it a family tradition to stay on welfare. Think nothing of it. WE pay higher taxes so they can. The middle class gets the cake in the face always. The rich don't care, and the people that don't want to work don't either.
Jade Evans, tell that to Elijah McClain.
@@anthonykemp276 I think she told it to everyone...
Let the wheat and tares grow together, until the time of harvest.
Well said.
@@cbaadintex What does that even mean?
@@patriciastewart2537 Same as The Rain fall on the just & the unjust. ( good & bad) But in reference of the comment you are questions is a parable of how not to intrude on good crops the weeds were allowed to grow up too. Because pulling out would damage the good but at harvest, a separation occurs.
Pls further elaborate on who exactly is the "wheat" and who exactly is the "tares" 🤔
@@judymarch2003 I would be worried if I didn’t know what the difference was.
Who is she to tell us what we know and don’t know?
Tell us why you are so charged up by what you heard ? What did you hear?
I know. She's childish and illiterate.
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
@@jrshield7793 It’s the “noble savage” myth.
I would submit the audience probably is unfamiliar with much of what she speaks.
Somewhat agree. Getting her to define her platitudes at 11:00 and other points would be helpful.
To determine her qualifications for making these statements, I would first like to hear her descriptions of her past and current interracial intimate relationships and those of her audience members.
If she had even more time, I would like to hear her describe a typical day of an adult hispanic male, black female, black male, white male, white female, Pacific Islander, etc. I think she’ll begin to notice something.
I'm an Afro-Caribbean male born in the UK and raised in Jamaica, It still surprises me that talks like this gets responses like I've seen, both positive and negative. I've come to realize a few things over the years:-(1) no one with absolute power relinquishes it willingly or helps people deemed lower than themselves without having a hidden agenda so I say to people of colour,stop looking for reparation, 40 acres and a mule etc. It's not going to happen. (2) We need to educate our children but focus on Economics and Politics, 2 of the most influencial aspects of Western society. When we concentrate on these things, we'll learn to work for and by ourselves and stop having expectations of other people including our own. Politics is important to learn to govern ourselves and to negotiate with other nations. Let's face it, Japan was down after the 2nd World War but are not anymore. Yes, we may have been down for longer but we need to broaden our horizon and look to Africa. With a good business plan, you can build a Blue Chip Company in Africa in FIVE YEARS! Go to Africa on a vacation and see for yourself how much development is going on there, not just by the Chinese but various projects all over Africa. It is not stricken with poverty like the media will tell you. I am a strong believer in the thinking that injustice, racism, victimization of any sort are clear indications of you not being wanted around so why stay? To fight for equal rights and justice only to be told you should grateful to be around them in THEIR COUNTRY, a land they stole and a people they victimized and killed then enslaved YOUR ANCESTORS? Stop being like a dog sitting by your slavemaster's table begging for scraps. The people today may not be the slavemasters of yesteryear but they and their have benefitted from slavery indirectly through the advent of the Industrial Revolution financed by slave money to what it is today. The society is built on the psychology of exploitation so to fight it is futile, everyone who has buck the system are targeted and humiliated then destroyed and what they have fought for destroyed by the powers that be :- they give you with one hand then take it back with the next. So, just work towards a better you by loving yourself, believing in yourself and strive to know yourself....not what people tell you, knowing your true self is knowing God/Allah/Jah/Eloh/, whatever you call the Divine Source of all that is because that is your essence. Your greater than what you have been told,good or bad, you are greater that so return home like the prodigal son and remember your greatness!
I agree. Look to Africa then look for a boat.Then look for a kleenex to wipe yer tears. Being 👱 with blue eyes I'll gladly wish you a successful bon voyage.Later you DL penetrator.
Another salty attitude towards whites... Please go find your rainbow somewhere else if you hate America and white people so much. Nobody needs that negative sh*t, life is already hard, then you get a$$holes trying to heap a load of misplaced guilt trips on regular white people who just want to mind their own business and be left the f*ck alone. Sorry you hate whites so much, but that's your problem to find a way through. I'm not taking blame for the slavery and racism of other folks, forget about it... I'm accountable for myself only! Try that on for size, it fits nicely.
@@janelleyharris5042 blood will always be on your peoples hands ALWAYS.
@@janelleyharris5042 how about LEAVE US THE FUCK ALONE.
If people got more excited about Jesus and followed Him, obeyed Him and the things He taught us . . . then we might be better people. God didn't make this difficult for us. He gave us the gift of Jesus. Simple. Receive Him as your personal Savior and your Lord. Read the Word. Be a follower of Christ Jesus.
Do you know why I don't spend a lot of my free time searching for unicorns? Because I've never seen any conclusive proof that unicorns exist. It's for this same reason that I don't get "more excited about Jesus". I'd honestly like to know why you believe that the books in the Bible are accurate accounts of actual events. Because the Bible says it's true?
If you know your Bible then you know 1st Peter 3:15..." Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have"
So what's your reason as an intelligent, reasonable and logical adult who has had the benefit of at least 12 years of primary education? Faith? What good is faith? Faith is belief in the absence of evidence. If someone asked you to prove something and you had irrefutable evidence, you'd merely present the evidence and be done with it, you wouldn't need faith at all. Isn't knowing whether something is true or not important to you?

@@juliemckenzie5960 My question was directed at the original poster, Laidback.
Your comment was unoriginal. What you said was "How do I know that scripture is true? By quoting more scripture of course"
And even if it could be irrefutably proven that Joshua ben Joseph did actually exist,
It doesn't prove that he was a supernatural being.
Jesus is black
I appreciate this being said with compassion and sincerity. It offers the beginning of insight that will hopefully lead to conversation. Despite some of the comments, racism and ignorance is real, active and demonstrated in the comments.
Difference is GOOD and necessary within humanity. Let’s not pretend it doesn’t exist or matter. It makes life beautiful and ugly, which is how we live and grow society.
her talking and laughing during the prayer......wow!
I saw that too! You have to Love God in order to love the people he created. I have to wonder if she does.
@@juliemckenzie5960 Yes, my GOD made all humankind from one blood.
Pharisees are allover.
I got the vibe she was talking down to people in the room, talking down to white people, stereotyping people, trying to preach love but then she won't even say Donald Trump's name... She ought to look herself in the mirror a little closer when she gives this speech
@@janelleyharris5042 oh no,she forgot to acknowledge the author of love in America, the white god sent to save some white Americans That's a ticket to hell. Comments by some Christians here serve to confirm religion is the root of the problems in this world. How they miss the point of her speech,instead are fixated on her body language,oh she's black how dare she makes these hypocrites uncomfortable in their hiding place,it's scary. Some of you will never stop the hate until your god donald trump becomes president again which is more important for you than the return of Jesus.
When you love yourself and God loves you more, it doesn't matter how they feel! They are the majority and want to stay that way. God is the majority as far as I'm concerned!
Romans 9:13 "For Jacob have I loved and Esau have I hated"
The majority lol Really, how?
Rethink that fam.
“When in Rome, do as the Romans do...”
I have lived in different countries and different cultures. When I did not like one culture in particular, I left that country. I did not complain about the culture no conforming to me. Nobody owes me anything!
I'm white and believe that God is the true majority, too. I may be accustomed to being a part of the majority race but that doesn't necessarily mean I intend to hurt others to stay that way.
Wow! Those people must have thick skin because there's no way I would've sat through all those racists insults and put downs after put down! She was totally obnoxious! And how dare she speak for all black people! Just think how outraged we would've been if her whole spill would've been a white person talking about black people! Divide and conquer is what her speech was all about! Wow!
God said " I have love you with an everlasting love. That is good enough.
We aren’t GOD. We need assistance which is why people like Amy are necessary. We try and fall short everyday which is why he sends talented gifted people like Amy to assist and inform.
Good enough for you maybe. Did not listen to anything this woman said just now????
Well said!
So stop voting, complaining, or asking or demanding anything else in life because God is enough 🙄
Parents tell children all types of things that we don't successfully carry out.
Love the 'calling in' instead of 'calling out'!
I'd like to mention something about her being named "Amy" to protect her enough for possible job interviews. Hold on now! I am in my 70s. When I was in high school, my friend, who was black, was named Gayle. A black boy in school was named Timothy. I also have a friend named Marsha, and worked with a guy named Walter. Average names, right? Their names were very common in the past. Black girls always had names such as Amy. She alludes to the fact that her parents gave her a name that sounded white so she could get as far as job interviews. I'm thinking that Whitney Houston had opportunities opened to her because of her fabulous voice, rather than her name! Anyone can name their children whatever name pleases them. However, it's only in the past few decades that names such as Loquacia, Beyonce, Raven, Ebony, etc...have been used abundantly. My daughter knew a girl in Philadelphia named Lemonisha. Yes, her mother loved lemons during her pregnancy. You understand the point I'm trying to make here.
Not sure what your point? Angry 70 year old. Clock is ticking,drop that bitterness if you have nothing else to offer.
Ahhh pllleeeeaaassssee ... you truly do not understand
If you were a person who was in the position of hiring- or know someone who is or would be, do you think they would weigh the information of/choose where to start interviews from the pile of resumes differently based on the names at the top only? The fact that you listed the names the way you did in your post suggests that Gayle, Timothy and Marsha would be called before Lemonisha. You "know" immediately she is probably not a Caucasian and because of her name any ideas or experiences you have had with women of color will automatically come into play BEFORE YOU EVEN SORT THE STACK OF RESUMES!
It is a sad reality, even today, POC are limited in ways white people are not able to see because the issues don't effect us, we haven't had the experiences. Knowing it happens is a start and acknowledging it happens is the bare minimum.
@@honeybeerobinson amen👏🏿❤
That one minute of staring into someone's eyes.....how uncomfortable must that have been. But very effective.
That really, really depends on the people! For some people who are even on the nigh-undetectable far-end of the autism spectrum (i.e., other people don't know we're autistic) it's the antithesis of effective.🤷🏾♀️
I can perform eye contact when necessary, because I've worked hard to learn this skill; but I wish more people were aware of how counterintuitive and counterproductive it can be for many people. Even if we "pass" as "normal" at work.
It's also a relatively-new primate development. In some hominid communities, it's a direct threat. Marmosets and gorillas, for instance, see eye contact the same way we see this 🖕🏾
In some cultures this would be highly inappropriate.
But I'd also like to see her try and get a congregation of black folks to look into each other's eyes for a minute and love each other. There's a lot of messed up people on both sides of this race issue.... But this lady is trying to make it purely a white people problem
@@janelleyharris5042 uh... there were black people (and other ethnicities) in the room as well.
need this talk thru the mid west congregations..
i so loved mrs, kim Hunter. i have understood she makes so much understanding about the division of races. i want her to know I UNDERSTOOD and i thank her so very much!

Wooooow LOVE 💕 LOVE 💕 THE SPEAKER (AMY) I NEEDED THIS TODAY, SHE A WONDERFUL PERSON AND I AGREE ND PRAY 🙏🏽 WITH HER. IN JESUS NAME AMEN. 9/30/21 COVID-19 ERA😮
Love thy neighbor means leading to Jesus Christ and telling the truth about salvation regardless of the cost
You dont have "the truth" tho. You have an opinion. And no, that ISN'Y what it means. It merely means what it says. You are adding your own interpretation.
Well spoken! We need many more of these conversations.
Maybe so but not on the Pulpit. What you need is more truthful teaching from the pulpit and not some candy sweet tooth soother taking what is God’s and using it for his popularity.
We don't need any black person standing up and telling white people what we like or want or what we don't like or what we don't want. Each black person should speak for herself. None of them speak for me. The only truth one person can speak for an entire group or race is that all of us expect to be treated with respect and fairness.
Black people are not treated with respect, or fairness like whites are. Where have you been? Personally I don't care what you say or think.
This is so beautifully articulated.
God bless Amen. Ms Galsey. U are beautiful in spirit. People don't have to say much but let's pray about it. Happy Holidays to U and family.
Beautifully articulated? Why would you expect less? This sounds as if you were expecting less than perfect articulation. All people of color do not speak street language. Im 65 and have a MS Degree. All though out college n job interviews I heard, " you speak so well, your articulation is perfect",. Yes, it really bothered me. Why do Caucasians expect Hispanics or blacks to speak differently, if we are all Americans and attended school in the USA? Would you say "beautifully articulated" to a white speaker? I do not intend to be mean in my response, just bringing out how words and the true meaning are interpreted by a non caucasian, though you may not have meant anything negativity it. Me, I treat EVERYONE the same. (black,white,Hispanic, etc ) I don't say something to one group, that I wouldn't say to another. Please let me know your views. Best way to take care of a problem is to discuss it. 😊
I just assumed, you were Caucasian, I just got my own lesson. 😮
I am 72 years old, white and grew up in northeast, Ohio. Went to college at the U of Ark. (Fayetteville). My father had brown eyes. my mother had blue. I was the youngest daughter and brown eyes, with 8 brothers and one sister, she the oldest. We had a mix of blonde hair w/ blue eyes and brown hair and brown eyes. I believe I was 2 to 3 years old when I a friend of my mother was sitting at the table and they were having coffee. She was the first black lady I remember noticing and was enchanted looking at her. Her skin that was beautiful dark brown. As a youngster and as maybe 2 to 3 years old?.... I was captivated. They were talking about dollies and potholders and whatever?
After their coffee and the lady lift. I asked my mom why her skin was brown? She told me it was the color she was born with, but that's just color and we are all the same/ like I have brown eyes and others have blue. So, I understood. My brothers also had friends of color they would bring in to eat cookies and then go back out to play baseball or go to the creek to try to catch frogs or maybe a turtle. I was " just a girl" by then and they did not let me go with them. However when I grew a little bigger they did teach me to be a stand in...when there were not enough boys to play baseball. When I was in school one of my black girlfriends would hang out with me and even called my mother, MOM" too. She and I would go with my mom at times to stores. We would go off looking to find whatever , see my mom and say "Hi, Mom", both of us, sometimes still at a good distance. I am sure others heard us. We lived in a small town and went to church and with all the children in my family...we were well known, our church was mixed with all colors of people. Big church to me with over 500 regulars every Sunday. I never saw or heard of any racism. Everyone were just people, trying to live happy good lives. At 15 years old, we moved to LA county, Ca. I went to church camp for 1 week that summer...life was still normal in my world.. Last day, morning service had an add on news event. While we were there at campgrounds and now wishing we could stay another week before our parents were to arrive. We were told there had been a riot in Watts.. burning etc. I was so shocked and could hardly imagine any of it. Then my first year as a junior in high school. Students began fighting on the school campus between White and Mexican students. One of my first friends there was literally so beautiful that first time I saw her, I thought she was what angels probably look like. She was a Mexican and we became friends. I figured she was so pretty she would be in a click of friends that only those entitled could be part of. She was just beautiful and not in such clicks.....She did not seem to be aware of her beauty . I was not aware yet that others / White and Mexicans were hateful to one another with out any judgement to their characters. Many years later a blonde blue eyed woman and I became friends. One day she told be a nasty rude joke about Mexicans. She laughed, and looked at me and said, what's the matter ? Didn't you think that was funny ? NO, It's terrible and not funny at all! I answered. She said ok, it was a test, because I am a Mexican and wanted to let you know and so you can meet my family and they do look Mexican. These were from Ohio, California, and Oregon, I also at another point in my life I lived in Memphis, Tennessee. I worked in a mall and got to know the mall daytime janitor,. She would take her breaks near the shop I worked in when I had my breaks. We sat in a seating area and just chatted as I smoked my cigarette. We became friends...oh, I forgot to tell. She was black. Later, I worked in a ware house and made another good friend there, was also black . I also during these times had white friends too. However while I lived in Tennessee, a new situation happened when I accepted the job at the mall, my new boss was telling me what my duties would be. Normal stuff. Then he told me to park my car as close to the exit door and under a street light. If I was worried at all to get security to escort me to my car. This was so no black man would rape me. I was totally surprised., but thought he was a racist. Then as chance would have it I had to walk to work one day. The way took me past some apartment building. Next thing I know there were some black men calling out to me some sexual, nasty stuff and scared me. First time in my life to experience this and than think my boss was right that I should be careful and stay alert., day or night. This has become a short charter instead of comment. What I wanted to say is parents need to teach the children that we are all the same no matter colors etc. I still have a wonderful black lady friend. I live in Ca. She lives in Chicago. We have stayed in touch years now. She is amassing, wonderful friend, a mom and her entire family is close. They are Christians' and live it. she has nothing to gain or reason to pretend we are friends. None of my friends of different color, one oriental friend not in this above narration, also still in my life, has anything to gain to pretend for in being my friend. We live long distances away but still stay in contact, as friends. I have never made friends with anyone unless we simply really got along and shared our ups or downs. I like this speaker but do not like that she said they pretend to be white peoples' friends. Maybe some of them are fakes but to include all of them is creating distrust in its self. Just try to love one another is the answer. at least this part did come out.
My daughter and I helped a black woman and her young son ,about 8 years old, when her car broke down in a small Texas town. She was from St. Louis. I found out about 3 hours into our new relationship that initially she was afraid of us. I didn't know I was scaring her. By the time we parted ways she told me that she would tell those in her church how white small town people had treated her well. My point here is that ALL people bring racism to the table. She had a preconceived idea of how she would be treated by white folks. She applied her past experiences to the current situation and she was wrong. It is human nature to fear what we don't know or understand. We both learned alot about each other's race that day. Follow God's laws and love your neighbor.
Very well expressed! Thanks for sharing
Just the title alone "What white people don't know" it should be "What some people don't know."
Are you saying, " you know?"
@@catherinefox5078 do you understand my point?
Such a smooth voice she has.
Thank u for sharing such profound revelation from one of the white people who is trying to learn the truths.
All children are being traumatized going to school
I know it is hard for minorities and so I understand your pain, especially that you know your children will be affected negatively because of their color. God bless you and know that you are loved and cared for with empathy because racism does exist and we all live in this ‘can be very cruel’ world. Stay strong, because you have great support even if you can’t see us ❤️

People need to be tought the word for those who don't or not able to go to Bible school or Bible College, they need to keep having Sunday school or Bible class in the churches so the people can know the truth about the bible.
Luckily, all Black American people have the sane experience and opinions she does.

Yes, I did consider quite a few times - that black/brown people do not use those shower products in hotels and, would obviously have their own with them like most of us who travel often. I like the ethnic assortment idea.
Thank you Mrs Amy Hunter
I think the problem isn’t that the poverty is the trauma. I think it’s that the trauma keeps recurring by people who do not know how to stop traumatizing other people. As a white person I listen to what white people say when there are no others around. We didn’t enslave anybody, we didn’t kidnap anybody, we never burned any crosses, we never refused to hire… We never we never we never. And yet I can sit in a restaurant with white people in my own family and have the little, snot nose, white server, turn to one of the children and ask what I want. What does she want? Sometimes I’m the oldest and most employed one in the group and I pick up the check. What a surprise. I think every group has dominant and non-dominant aspect. Every group gets picked out a little bit. White people probably not so much but fortunately white people also belong to other groups. They are female sometimes, have disabilities, have blindness, belong to non-standard religions, espouse nonstandard gender identities. When you feel guilty about being white because of the trauma that we tend to keep perpetrating on others, look around for your own group. I think the more we consider ourselves alike, the easier it will be to stop this nonsense in the long run. The blacks are the blind, the whites are the sighted. And yet there are seeing Black people and blind white people. Use the differences to relate.
When i came from Panamá 40 years ago, l was very disapointed to see all this hate. Thank God wey don't react to the color of people down there. Whites and black drink from the same glass eat from the same plate. As of what happens here in the US l see so much agression from the blacks towards the latino. We did nothing wrong to blacks. I don't see this ever getting better. Blacks are too deep in their hate. Sorry for My honest comments. God bless You all
Aggression towards Latinos? Have you noticed their aggression toward Asian people?
@@1cjadefox I feel very sad about the way Asians get treated in the USA. Down in Latin America, Asians are appreciated and respected for their hard work.
Interesting. I see alot of racism from Latinos and Asians towards black people when they get here. It must be in the water. They look down on black people because of how the white media taught them to view black people. The hate for black people no matter American or African or Afro Latino is present every where because of the SYSTEM of white supremacy that still exist. And excuse me put if you pass for white in the country you are afforded all the privilege of that. You are just too blind to see that.

@Spicy Memer47 do you not understand Jesus Christ equalized all races, creeds, Genders when took all the sins on himself. There is no social Justice because He is the only one who is just. All evil whether it is race based or not all fits into the category of following and taking direction from the devil. The only way to do away with evil is to accept Christ and he will give you His righteousness. Just telling people what’s wrong with them will not remove the evil behavior.

It's heart breaking the amount of people writing these comments didn't even watch it.
They probably watched it.... We just saw two different messages come through. We saw and heard incongruences, plus you put the shoe on the other foot, and I'd bet black folks wouldn't appreciate someone talking down to them and stereotyping them like this women does towards whites.
you didn't watch to the end. Empathy is only for the mature. Most won't change because speaking the truth is so offensive that we are still being murdered over it.
Thanks for (scrunches face) condescendingly teaching me so much about how im racist. yeah?? ok.
It’s really sad that they (either UA-cam or the creator of this channel) pushed down all of the previous comments that pointed out a lot of Amy’s nonsense. They couldn’t handle the truth - so they either deleted or moved all of those comments way down below so that no one will ever see those arguments. Amy is simply biased, or racist herself. The problem with African-Americans like Amy is that they can dish it out, but they can’t take it.
"We say hello to each other. We acknowledge each other with a smile or head nod. It is a sign of respect. It doesn't really mean "hi" I mean it means hi but it means more than hi, it means I see you , you are human"
This statement DOES translate over. This tells me she as probably only experienced "city life" mostly in her life. If you go to a smaller town one thing people with notice if they are from a larger town/city is how many people simply wave at you or give you a head nod that means exactly the same as she described.
She talks about "culture" as being owned by different ethnic groups but "people" living in different areas have different "cultures". The biggest "well known" culture divide amongst people of the same race in the US is Northern and Southern "culture". A white person living in New York City lives in and has a complete different "culture" and abides by completely different "social rules" than a white person living in a smaller more rural town.
So..... If Amy comes here and gives me a "head nod", not only would I understand what it "means" but she would get one back that means the exact same thing!
Exactly 💯
I agree. I am a Black woman, and --- especially during the early part of Amy's talk (after the eye-gazing exercise) --- she said things that I do not agree with. (For instance: I typically stay at 5-star hotels, and so I also use the shampoos and conditioners in hotels! WTH??? I never heard of any Black person who does not also do so, but now I know!) 😆The "time" point was also moot --- one cannot compare professional standards of "being on time" to not arriving on time for parties. 🙂Black Economic scholars assert (& I agree) that healing U.S. (& world) economic disparities between White vs. Black people will affect the most profound changes. Overall, however, Amy's message is potent and powerful, especially ideas related to dissolving economic disparities.
@@tonyareed5083 I think what you may have missed about the hotel amenities is that they were not selected with black people or POC in mind.
Rusty it's an entirely different thing with black people the head nod carries with it weight that most white people cannot understand. Because of how white people have treated us in this country, there is a lot that we communicate with just a look when we have to move in white spaces.
That's what I thought, until I saw some girl on Twitter saying she hates it when white people smile and say hi to her. Confusing when everyone has their own standards.
‘For the rest of your life’ that broke my Heart
Yes....the rest of his life because evil exists in the fallen world...but we have hope through our Lord Jesus Christ. He is the only one who loves us purely. We are made in His image and he died to give us the healing of our hearts, souls, and bodies. Don’t look to humans to fulfill that need. They can’t. She is is expecting from the wrong source...He is the source.
Me as well, but part of the sadness is the inculcation of the idea that when someone stops you, it's solely because of race. That's also a sad, single-minded way of thinking that will be untrue more often than not, even though sometimes it is.

Can you imagine the outrage if a white woman gave a talk about "Things that Black People Don't Know"?
No, I can't because it would be most likely rife with inaccuracies without regard to her privilege in American society. I also doubt that she would be as good a speaker as Amy Hunter. Let's focus on how great of a job Ms. Hunter did and learn from her! 👍🏽
It appears that virtue signaling by guilty white liberals is quite the rage. (Dear guilt ridden white liberal UA-cam trolls please don’t start a fight over my comment.

@@CHANDSOME What makes you think it would be "rife with innacuracies"? What makes you think this person has any more of a lock on what white people generally think than a given white person would know about the black community's mind set? What makes you think *anybody* can make valid generalizations about what large groups of people think?I'll wager you're buying what she's selling because you already believe it, and that you believe it simply because it flatters you. It boils down to nothing but wishful thinking.
But you asked in a black neighborhood and came out alive
I tried to listen to this, but right off of the bat I was turned off- everything that this woman says is actually (WITHOUT HER EVEN KNOWING IT) divisive and stereotypical... When she THINKS that she is speaking against such things. I do not agree with there being white or black names, a name is a name... and phrases such as "do you know my people"? When I say "my people", I am referring to HUMANS. I consider all people as individuals and judge only based on my personal compatibility or chemistry with that person, their skin tone is inconsequential. I hate when anyone of ANY color says things like MY PEOPLE. If you say "your people" are only people of a specific color, you are automatically separating yourself from other people. ALL people are my people. Even if I don't like you, you have a right to exist and I will defend you even by laying down my life to protect you. But, if I don't like you, you can take it to the bank that it has absolutely NOTHING to do with the tone of your fucking skin, as that is absolutely infantile. There should be NO RACIAL LINES, because in reality there are no racial lines, we are ALL of the human race. We have been pre-programmed to draw these imaginary lines. All of the problems that she discusses here, are BECAUSE OF THESE IMAGINARY LINES!!!! Until everyone learns to stop thinking in these terms, these racial divides will exist. The only way to stop that is to stop separating ourselves. I do not look at any man or any woman as a white or black person, JUST a PERSON. I grew up in a diverse area, and was never taught to separate. I thank God that I don't have to be burdened with such nonsense. The thought of a persons color never enters my mind until people like her PUT IT THERE. Stop separating ourselves and all of this nonsensical racism goes away.
You should try again to listen to the entire speech.
@@GoodnWise I did, and again, for as long as people think in terms of my people and your people, white, black, brown, yellow or whatever, this will never stop... and she is the poster child for that mindset. Decolonization? That is a joke... have people going around apologizing for something that they were never responsible for? I never did a wrong thing to anyone in my life based on the color of their skin, and if I saw someone being discriminated against, or even thought that that might be happening, I was the first to stand up and do something about it. If she believes that politicians are going to fix race relations, she is sadly mistaken... they fuel the hate, even if unintentionally... when you go around telling an entire group of people that they need to apologize for something, all that is going to do is piss off the ones responsible for the hate in the first place causing them to retaliate further, and alienate others, to appease one group of people... when we shouldn't be thinking in terms of "groups" in the first place. If everyone stopped drawing these imaginary lines and grouping ourselves, the old generation of haters will die off and the new mindset becomes the norm. One race... the HUMAN race.
So if black people have been here for 400 years are you saying they are mostly poor and imprisoned because for some reason they each individually keep making bad choices while most white people individually make all the right choices? And she's wasting her time trying to raise awareness because everything is fine? And her words telling you what her problems are of which it is impossible for you to be aware of because you don't ever have to live them is the problem? You need to read some books.

"GOD CREATED ONE RACE, THE HUMAN RACE, HUMAN BEINGS CREATED RACISM" -- JANE ELLIOTT
Exactly, and there are some people in the US who would like to keep it going. They can not accept the fact that many have grown past racism and are getting along wonderfully. They want to make us believe that the work of such heroes/heroines as Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks meant nothing at all. I lived during their time and saw what it was like then. I am not saying that there are no racist persons today. I am sure that there are plenty, but not in my 50/50 circle.

@@rexiebrauchle9505 A lot of what Amy said was good. Too bad she did so much stereotyping and assuming, which sort of overshadowed the good for me.
Am I the the only one who recognized that this woman is actually racist? Geez, the title say it all. Reverse the roles and you’ll immediately recognize how offensive she is. She makes all kinds of judgements purely based on the color of your skin this is wrong people! Don’t be duped!
You're not the only one. She admits right off the bat the she is a racist and that her parents were racist too... or... at the very least, fully subscribe to racist beliefs.
If you believe negative things about a group of people, based solely on the color of their skin, then... well, that's textbook... and no one seems to get it... not even the people who are being racially profiled and judged.
I like her tone and speaking skills, but she is just wrong about most of what she is saying. For example, two(edit, six) points she makes.
1. She talks about shampoo bottles in hotels, having a wide discussion wouldn't change this, what changes this is the open market and whether a hotel thinks having an "ethnic" shampoo would generate more profits, if it does, then the hotels that have "ethnic" shampoos would eventually replaced all the ones that don't, if it doesn't generate more profits, then it won't change. And the thing is it doesn't, and so it hasn't change for a very, very long time. Also on this topic, black people don't "NEED" to use specific hair products, in fact they don't need to use any hair products at all, it is a choice.
2. She mentions that housing contracts discriminating based on race still exists, this is illegal and no longer exists. She also says that even if it isn't in the contract that white people still intentionally only sell to other white people, this is just a blatant show of her lack of knowledge of how the housing market works. When a house is sold, the seller in most cases doesn't even know the race of the buyer because it is mediated between two parties, the buying agent and selling agent, and two, sellers generally don't care what race the buyer is even if they somehow knew, they just want to take the highest offer so they can get the most money for the sale.
edit:
3. the "wage gap" is actually an "income gap". There is no wage gap and women don't make less than men that have the same jobs, and the same goes for black women. Bringing this up also just shows a blatant lack of knowledge of interpreting the statistics and what they mean in a practical sense in the world.
4. She is wrong about "special" and "honors" classes. They are based on merit, usually some form of aptitude test. Race has nothing to do with it. Merit, being the exact thing Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. says he dreamed of a world where people were judged not upon the color of their skin but their merit.
5. She is wrong about the education system. First, it's a joke and doesn't teach people how to be successful in a capitalist society, so it's in many ways a waste of time for most people no matter how good the education is(talking about public education system). Second, she is wrong about blacks being traumatized because they don't learn about "their" people being successful. Only racist kids would look at it that way, instead of learning that Americans were successful and so because they are also american, they can be successful.
6. White people is america have also always been poor. You could make the argument that, there have always been rich white people, but the same thing is true of blacks, throughout the entirety of american history, there has ALWAYS been rich black people, probably starting the the first slave providers, which were all black people, selling their black slaves the white Americans.
7. Her son questioning her and what she took from it is just wrong. A person's appearance, and therefor what they wear DOES matter. So telling her son, what he is wearing doesn't matter is just wrong. A black man, or any man for that matter, dressed in a way that looks professional will generally almost always be treated in a way you would expect any professionally dressed person to be treated by a stranger, regardless of race.
8. She is wrong about her reasoning why people "like" people that look like then, this has been scientifically proven to be rooted in biology and is not a cultural element or as she puts it, part of "colonization".
This woman is out of time, she is stuck in the racism that she experience as a child in the 70's and thinks it still exists today, it doesn't.
As nice as this woman's disposition is and she would probably at least seem to be a pleasant woman to talk to, she is patently racist. She says many thing that are racist statements in this video and I would be very surprised if she in fact believed nothing of what she says, unless she is lying and doesn't believe what she is saying, she is racist.

He told them he was running home but they did their investigation anyway. He cooperated and all was fine in the end. We must teach our children to cooperate with the police, whatever color. BTW there had been a robbery in the neighborhood he was running through.) I did not fault the police. Please listen to Larry Elder (a black man) who proves that all the victimhood of black people is not racism. Listen to Thomas Sowell (a black man) who also proves it! Don't buy into this racism.

I wonder if people who work and are waiting on someone to relieve them of their shift who have children at daycare that need to be picked up at a certain time or else they get charged for every 15 min they are late like the idea that time is “ Fluid”.

What about when you have an appointment before work and need to be out at a certain time if “ Time is Fluid”? To inconsiderate people time may be fluid but for the rest of us time is an essential element that helps us all plan our work day and social life with consideration of others “ time”.

When their ancestors chose to come here in droves, those ethinicities were traded for the all encompassing "white" identity for fear of being treated the worse, not getting a leg up on the competition; to name a few things. But most of all that particular kind of American procured "white culture", was and is mostly defined by its hatred of non-whiteness. Hatred is not conducive for creativity and artistry, as you can observe is bountiful in black American culture in general, it can almost be described as an inheritance, for the nightmare it has been for too many people of color. And so there is no defining "white culture" which isn't mostly borrowed, or stolen, because of these social negatives. Like a school of fish hoping the next guy get's eaten instead of you.
My impressions is that she's pointing out her culture just to show contrast with what each member of the audience assumes, based on their culture. To remind us that we tend to assume others believe what we believe.
Things dont change when we see each other as white or black instead of as Gods children saved by the blood of Christ

What this woman has said I can't say I find incredible but I do find extremely credible. It's not only something that in my reality applies to the white black divide but the skin tone divide among what we refer to as blacks or Afro-American. I think the princess will see a spouse applies to everyone of every color skin tone race religion culture.
she is very cute and I love her dimples. That aside,---- Sorry, but I must say I am sick of black people telling me what I need to be or do. Work on yourselves --- you do you, I'll do me. I'm not WHITE! I'm European American. I like my own tribe and people and want to be around them. There's nothing wrong with that.
If you know the God of the scriptures, ask HIM for what you want and need. Stop whining about how unfair everything is for you. There are many people out there with many inequities. What about the Lithuanian midgets? Are you making a way for them? I'm ok with you taking a European name. At least you didn't misspell it and butcher it like most blacks.
Wow there are a lot of angry racist people on here. I thought this video would be good, but the comments are so nasty. There are a lot of ignorant people saying things about welfare and EBT etc. They do not know the facts. So sad.

We are not born good. Psalm 51.
Science agrees with You.
Regardless what a book says, "we are born good!" We learn evil from others!
@@jaaziel9 first, you must reject or not regard the Bible as truth, which is fine with me…your choice but just clarify. Second, your theory is incorrect. If evil is taught then who taught the first person? Evil had to have its human origin…While I do not believe we are evil at birth, we are tainted and good. Last, if you do not accept the Bible as truth then our conversation is fruitless since it’s where I begin.

nobody likes their hair touched , its a universal norm.
I won't even let the hair dresser touch my hair.
I am white and the free shampoos in hotels make my hair dry and brittle and frizzy. They are cheap and not a good idea for ANY type of hair. I am northern european and when I worked in USA people coulnt pronounce my name so they made up a nickname. I was fine with that.
Why try to minimize and or dismiss the weight of the offense with assimilations that really dont assimilate you with what she means? By doing that you block the complete comprehension. While the hotel shampoos may not be the BEST for your white people hair , they are still FOR white peoples hair. The point is regardless to how cheap the shampoo may be it is provided out of consideration. Meanwhile not one product geared toward people of color is even considered necessary to be offered. Not even a cheap one. And as far as names are comserned...... Smh. Do you see what my name is? My name is butchered more often than not. The fact that you said you were always given a nickname and you were okay with it provides the proof that what you experienced and what she means are not the same thing. To be assigned a nickname without my suggestion or consent is offensive because am i not important enough for one to even put forth the effort of calling me by my given name? It may be okay to and for you but not so much for a people whos ancestors had their given names stripped away and replaced with the name of their oppressor. Be blessed.

Blacks and whites ought to be accountable for their own individual actions, I'm not trying to take blame for other people's BS... But I guess this speaker wants me to kiss a$$ to people who I don't know and whom I owe nothing to. It's really messed up.
The hotel amenities story is ridiculous, hotels will cater to the demographic they primarily serve to. That's business in general, it's that way in every country. This speech wreaks of reverse racism and passing the buck.

are you really that simple-minded about race? switching words to "black" or "white". please know that most times when something doesn't say "white" in front of it...that is it most definitely catering to "white" (and yes, I can provide examples) so first stop getting hung up on that. But the answer to the question would be it depends on what the talk is about.

As far as "god"? You have an opinion. That's all. The existence of a "god" is a theory. Just like all the rest.

Even what you said about those women; you don't know D*CK about their beliefs. You are the living, breathing personification of the word "arrogance". Get over yourself, lady. Perhaps you should pray to your chosen deity for some humility.
I hate when preachers try to pressure people into uncomfortable situations, telling them to be quiet and submit.

Was this a Christian Meeting? How come she did not once mention the name of Jesus, without whom people have neither the incentive nor the ability to love each other? This was a ted talk in disguise. I agree with what she was saying, but it wasn't a sermon. Perhaps she could have suggested that people ask God to give them the love in their hearts for other people....
Here in Australia people generally acknowledge each other when passing them... I recall a friend talking about being on a train in London, and how people sat there stiff and poker-faced and did not acknowledge them when they spoke to them...so my point is, being white doesn't automatically make you austere or wealthy or educated ... behaviour is learned, and only the love of God in Christ Jesus can help you unlearn the ungodly parts of your behaviour whoever you are.
New Yorkers, San Franciscans and Los Angeles people are like that.
She has some good points on the differences of cultures. America is a big country, people on the west coast act and do things differently than people on the east coast, regardless of race. She is a bit of a hypocrite, what about meeting people and understanding them through love 44:16.

I love that Amy says we should nod or say hello to everyone because it's validation that you are here, a sign of respect.
I think it is wrong to generalize all people of one race as alike, knowing or not knowing the same things. I am half Italian and half Irish, so I am categorized as white. Here's an interesting bit: I have had Black people tell me that Italians are not white. This is not true; I do not know where they got that idea. Anyway, I have three children and a grandchild. All are adults. My first born in 1972, had a Chinese father. She married a Black man and they had a son together. My second child born in 1980, has a Black father. She decided not to have children. She works with young children every day. My third child, a son born 1985, had a
Puerto Rican father. He has blue eyes from a recessive gene. I knew nothing of recessive genes until he was born. A recessive gene can occur when a child has a grandparent on EACH side (cannot be two grandparents on one side) so my Irish mother had blue eyes; his dad's father was a blue eyed Puerto Rican. So a blue eyed grandparent on each side; my son inherited a recessive gene for blue eyes. A lot of folks do not know that Puerto Ricans can have blue eyes. Anyway, having Black people in my immediate family, I am pretty familiar with Black people. I also lived with my kids in a 99% Black neighborhood for 16 yrs. During that time the area became integrated with white people who had a bit more money to invest into the area (also known as gentrified) which was two sides of the coin, loss of families and low income people, along with improvements to infastructure, bigger tax base to pay for improvements (schools, play grounds, street lights, new businesses to create jobs, ect.) so I had Black friends, dated Black men (I was a single mother) and I've always liked Black people anyway and always had Black friends, before moving to that neighborhood. And no, none of my children are adopted; I gave birth to all of them at home with Midwives. I added that bit because I had people ask me if they were adopted! If my kids were white, they would have never asked. One more thing: My son has Black 10% Spanish not sure the percentage, Taino (the tribe in Puerto Rico before the Spanish invasion and colonization, which included the import of Black African slaves) Most of his genetics on his father's side is likely Taino. So my point is I'm not a "typical" white person (if there is such a thing) so please do not generalize.
Unfortunately most men view a woman saying hello as sexual flirtation.
@@hooleyqueenWhile I appreciate your family tree and your statement about how it is wrong to generalize, you are missing so much of the point. Congratulations on your ecclectic racial experience, however, you are an anomooooly in your familial make up, therefore have a different experience. It is safe to say that the points Amy made to ring true for the general population of White and Black individuals in America. In a talk such as the one Amy provided, she cannot address everyone's unique situation and to focus on the piece you address here is to miss the important educational points Amy was trying to make. I would suffice to say had you listened with learning ears you may not have made some of the statements you made here. One of the very first rules of thumb in interacting with Black people is not to talk about all the ways you know what it is to be Black or the experience of Black people. So I am really clear that your comments were really about you and not at all about what Amy was speaking about. My motto..."Seek understanding" rather than "Spout your knowledge & miss an opportunity to learn and grow!

When we get to heaven...should you choose to go by way of the Savior Jesus Christ, there will be no race.....I’m sick of everything, including love and serving Christ being filtered through race. There is only one side...the side of a Jesus Christ. If you don’t like people because of race, or any reason, you need to take it up with the creator of you and all races!!!! We are made in His image and we all need each other and if you have been hurt by anyone regardless of race...this is the devils work, and they hated Christ and His children will be hated too. Talk to Him about it and love with His love and know He adores you. This lady has a huge chip on her shoulder. This is not the 1960s or 1970s. Tell Christ about these problems....no one owes you shampoo. This is sickening. Everyone has been mistreated because there is sin in the world, your choice is to carryon and allow Jesus to pave your way and heal your wounds so you minister to others who have been hurt like you, or to be bitter and tell everyone what is wrong with them.
