Sage Steele should never be on a panel about race because she is destined to say something that will let you know immediately what race she feels is superior and it isn’t the black race.
She was on a panel called “Under The Skin” which spoke on issues of race and religion. Sage took that opportunity to say black people are racist, once again promote how she is bi-racial and blame black people for all the problems that they deal with in the world.
“There are times that I believe that we, as African-Americans, can be hypocritical, and that is to not look ourselves in the mirror when we are saying certain things and blaming other groups for one thing when we are doing the exact same thing…The worst racism that I have received [as a biracial woman married to white man], and I mean thousands and thousands over the years, is from black people, who in my mind thought would be the most accepting because there has been that experience…But even as recent as the last couple of weeks, the words that I have had thrown at me I can’t repeat here and it’s 99 percent from people with my skin color. But if a white person said those words to me, what would happen?…How do we, [with Christianity] as our foundation, address this honestly with each other and these communities? Because to me, if we don’t start with ourselves in any issue, how can you point the fingers at somebody else?”
This is a common theme with Sage Steele.
It is always black people’s fault and she wants black people to praise her for being bi-racial and married to a white man.
She never mentions anything about her black father, doesn’t ever say anything positive about black men or black people in general.
WE are not the problem, the problem is centuries of systematic racism and prejudice against us. If you gave black people the same advantages (educational, economical, justice system, political and so much more) as white people do you think black people wouldn’t be thriving?
We are thriving now in SPITE of all these things that are put in place to hold us down. Black people influence everything about our society and culture. We are a beautiful and creative people and if we all left the United States tomorrow the entire country would crumbled within a couple of days (maybe hours).
Sage wants to be white, she only wants to identity with that side, so it makes no sense to have her speak about black people when it is clear she has utter disdain for that part of her.
But the facts are no matter how many white men you marry or how many bi-racial kids you have, you are still black and maybe you should be the one looking in the mirror, not us.
