OlderAdrianne Curry: Ban Black History Month (Part Deux)
Former America’s Next Top Model Adrianne Curry is back for more after her very controversial “Ban Black History Month and BET” rant. Here is her “rebuttal” via her MySpace:
“Rebuttal to my Black History blog
Yep, I gotta try to clarify a few things here.
Firstly, I just want to apologize for how random my thoughts were in my last blog. I wrote what I did just minutes after a long heated discussion on the topic. I can hardly read the thing, it’s so damn random!
I think it is HORRIBLE that people misunderstood my message. Just because I wanted to stop separating races, doesn’t mean I want to STOP TEACHING HISTORY! Or schools need to teach MORE of ALL of it anyway! I was asking that we not name things to separate ourselves. I never claimed we shouldn’t learn our own history, or that of all the other countries on earth (which we as Americans are pretty bad at). I am very aware of all the amazing things hat black people have done for our country, and we should always be aware of it. However, separating our races sounds like racism to me. It just does. So go ahead, claim I am the one who is ignorant for wanting us all to be EQUAL! Can you believe that? How does that make a f***ing lick of sense? Honor your heritage, I know I do. Just make sure that by doing so, you do not seperate yourself from the rest of us! Black History to me would be everything that happened in AFRICA. I lived there for almost 5 months. Visted Robin Island, and saw the cell they held Nelson Mandela in. I witnesses first hand people calling these taxi vans “Black Taxis” and these nice taxi’s “white taxis”. Just vile.THAT is African(black if you will) history. African AMERICAN history is OUR history!

Adrianne Curry: “Boycott Black History Month!”
Yes, there was a time when racism ran rapid. It still does in some places. However, it is time for us to rise above it and BECOME ONE, instead of SOME. I wrote my last blog in such hurry and a fury because I felt what I was typing so deeply. I am appalled that anyone would claim I am just some stupid white b**** that doesn’t know s*** about anything. I did NOT grow up rich. I did NOT hang out with rich people. Watch the show “Roseanne” and you tell ME if that family seemed well off. That is just about where I came from. My family is blue collar all the way! Just because I worked hard to get where I am it means I don’t know how hard it is to LIVE LIFE? I was addicted to drugs, raped, abused, beaten, etc. I DO NOT DWELL ON IT! I choose to rise above it! I have been beaten up for being “the white girl” a few times, so don’t tell me I don’t know how it feels to be discriminated against.
My message about trying to rise above segregation, separation, and racism has been twisted. Some people are saying I am RACIST for wanting all races to embrace each other! You’re a f***ing dumbass if that is what you think! Again, let me make this clear, I DO NOT SUPPORT THE SEPERATION OF RACE IN THIS COUNTRY, ANY RACE. I DO NOT SUPPORT CHANELS OR FUNDS THAT SEPARATE RACE, HENCE ADDING TO RACISM! I never claimed to STOP teaching history that involves black people, I asked to STOP BEING RACIST BY SEPERATING GROUPS BY RACE! Truly educate yourselves on the true definition of segregation.
I enjoy sharing my thoughts here. Some people like it, and some people don’t. I come from an incredibly political family. (I am a Democrat). I enjoy a heated debate. I didn’t mean to “single out” only the black months/funds/channels. It was more of an example of how NO RACE should attempt to separate itself in such a way that ADDS to the problem with racism. Stop singling people out, and maybe…just maybe, the future will be full of people that were NEVER raised thinking people are so different because of their skin.
I wrote about what I did because I care. It makes me physically ill knowing that there are people that are still so closed minded out there that they hate someone because of their skin. My hope is that one day we will all wonder how anyone could have done that. I think that we need to teach MORE history in our schools. Of course, even more world history. I also think we should be more aware of what is happing in other countries. Of everywhere I have been on Earth, America shows the least news on what’s happing outside our “world”.
This felt good. I feel like I have got my point across better this time. I need to learn to relax on my impulse and calm down before I share. ; ) My Boo always tells me that. Thanks for listening.”

Sorry but it still sounds like the first time to me, the young person is clearly not understanding that we know that the problem still exists and that other countries are quite different, I lived in Germany 8 years and I loved it and except for the concept that some white americans gave the Germans it was great. They said (white americans)black people had tails and were painted black for war times or something like that. Clearly you have to walk in someone shoes to understand what they go thru in life. Pray for her to receive some Godly guidance in the future.
Education is a prerequisite. We can in no way equate the injustices in Africa to what has happened to African Americans here in the United States. The United States has its own rich history of injustices toward individuals of color. Namely: Black or African-Americans. I will not forget. Nor will anyone of color. As in my first post, if any individual of color or otherwise feel that they are not being properly heard. Speak up. Let your voice be heard. We have a presidential election coming up. Now is the time to express yourselves. Becoming active in causes that celebrate and bring equality for all individuals.
Listening or reading Ms. Curry’s thoughts and opinions is an example of the ignorance and mis-education that still exists.
I just can’t believe this woman. Let her go tell Univision that there shouldn’t be Univsion for Latinos, go tell Zee TV, that they shouldn’t be on for Asians. What an ignorant ***** who speaks through her ass.
Well…..I actually know where she´s coming from.
Now please don´t act like saints here…..

I love Adrian. She’s definately not a racist, but honestly she should just stay out of anything political. Too much drama involved!
This chick didnt even finish high school! why care what she has to say? who is she? and who cares?!
If this is the only way she can keep her name in the limelight than thats sad!

Shut up Adrienne.
LOL, this is a girl that did not wanted to be disrespected by her b/f on TV because her father was watching but yet she had no issue’s of her father watchin the show and watching his daughter perform S&M on her b/f. She is a headcase.
Black N Proud aka Move B*tch aka Aunt Jemimia is such a joke.

24.7% of Black people in America live in poverty. That’s the highest percentage by race of any first world country anywhere. So you are the f*cking tool you stupid c*nt.
I don’t even care about this month. I’m not even American.
It’s nice to see the other side of the coin though when I see some stupid white woman shoot her mouth off.
It’s also fun to poke the cage with you stupid pr*cks. It’s okay for me to do it too because it’s a part of Northern culture. lol
Racism! It’s not just for white people anymore!
I AGREE WITH POST :13 MOVE *******, UNTIL WHITES STOP THINKING THEY ARE BETTER THAN BLACKS RACISM WILL ALWAYS EXIST. PLUS DUMB ASS ***** BLACK PEOPLE WANT EQUAL TREATMENT **** A SEPARATION, I DONT GIVE A DAMN WHETHER IM AROUND WHITES OR NOT JUST GIVE ME EQUAL TREARMENT, DONT ******* PRE JUDGE ME. OR MOST OF ALL DONT STEREOTYPE ME. THIS ADRIENNE FOOL NEEDS TO SHUT HER SLOW DRAGGING MOUTH. YOU ARE NOT BLACK SO DONT ******* SPEAK ON BLACK ISSUES. STICK TO ******* YOUR HUSBAND AND ACTING LIKE A **** LIKE YOU DO. DO WHAT THE **** YOU DO AND STAY OUT OF BLACK PEOPLES BUSINESS, BLACK HISTORY MONTH AINT HURTING YOUR ******* ASS.
noni & magnus

DONT PAY ATTENTION TO THIS MAGNUS COW/ THIS PERSON IS ON ALL THE SITES THAT HAVE BLACK ON THERE. SPREADING HATE AND BIGOTRY. **** YOU MAGNUS , I HAD A DEBATE WITH THIS ***** BEFORE. IGNORE THE TRAMP AND DONT WORRY ABOT WHAT BLACK PEOPLE DO, YOU JEALOUS ASS *****.
She is totally clueless. If you read her responses on her MySpace page she also says that she is opposed to any television programming that is not in English. She really needs to take some of her money and go take a few classes; and then maybe she will be able to more cleverly articulate her point of view. She may not have wanted to sound racist but she did.
again with the caps
too f*cking funny.
Me angry black person. Me yell real loud. Me have no point but me yell loud.
Me thupid me guess but at least me loud.
Now me make up word cause me no know real word.
*ahem*
while it was fun to see both sides of this coin it’s getting a little boring flipping it.
In case some of you haven’t noticed or do not listen to news, whites in America are no longer the majority race. And, I have never agreed with anything that is set aside for only one race.
lol @ katie
79% isn’t the majority?
This sh*t is well documented. Take your BS elsewhere.
All of you are unbelievable. She does have a point and even though she cant say it right, the point is still loud and clear. We should not seperate races and embrace one another. Yes we can celebrate our heritage and can do so on a daily basis. We do not have to have black history month, white history month etc…
There are so many races that we all need to learn about on an everyday thing. I dont want my daughter going to school and only learning about Black history month…I want her to learn of all history. I dont think there should be a fund that only certain races can go to college from it. Why cant there be a fund for who ever needs it and actually wants to go to college or university?? Anyways I agree with her and she isnt being racist at all. If people think she is being ignorant for saying what she is saying then that says something about you and how you think the world should be. You obviously think your race is the only that matters and should be recognize no matter who it makes feel left out. I dont like feeling left out or like I dont understand, when Ive been taught it. Just because my skin colour isnt yours doesnt mean I dont understand or sympathize where your coming from. Anyways whatever I believe in stopping racism and thats where it starts.
D, I agree 100%, if more people thought like you, the world would be a better place.

Whites are no longer the majority because they are not spitting out baby after baby and living on tax payer’s dollar!
There’s actually less black people in America than in 1950.
They just whine so much and cause so many problems it seems like more.
Bark for me b*tches.
99 ARE YOU CRAZY?
Magnus…I bet that you are getting a rise right now..I know that this is the only excitement that you will ever get!
If you are not American, save your weak @ss statistics, because I know that you live behind your four walls, and don’t come out much, but this isn’t the 1950’s, or 60’s! White men can’t touch us, or hang us without getting their beat down in the process, so you can get tough behind your rent a center cp all day, but you are just a piece of sh*t! And dripping @ss, g@ping *sshole, you are the one that has been doing the most whining, I wish that I could e-mail..you a bib, and a bottle, NOW magnus..didn’t I tell you that you are apart of the DOG family, you should know…you smell like dogs, even when you are not wet! Isn’t about time to wash that mangled hair? I would say so! GO SCRATCH YOUR B@lls!
