I also could not believe the part about receiving poor service at restaurants.

I have always felt sorry for the food servers in restaurants when they had to wait on black women. The black women would complain like crazy, often would send their food back, they just seemed to go out of their way to give waiters and waitresses a hard time. Then to top it off they don't tip.

They are total bullies in restaurants.

The gov. needs to get the high fructose corn syrup out of the food.
 Quoting: loofa


I believe this is a big part of it.

For most of the 20th century black people who lived in rural areas of the Southeast US were said to have some of the best nutrition in the country. They grew food for themselves, beans, corn, greens, peas yams and so on. They often had their own chickens and other livestock too. All this of course was before the food supply was tampered with GMOs.

Now they eat a lot of processed food with little nutrition. I suspect their bodies do not handle the toxic adulterated food as well as other people can. Diets in Africa were and are limited to a few foods, all of it totally natural. They likely adapted to that over the eons, in the same way Eskimos adapted to a mostly meat and fat diet.

Of course to even talk of that is probably considered racist, though it has been established that the different people groups seem to do better on certain types of diets.

Let's go through a few pieces of this article. It's so bad it's actually a work of art.

Black women have also been identified as the subgroup with the highest body mass index (BMI) in the U.S., with four out of five classified as either "overweight" or "obese." Many doctors have claimed that black women's "excess" weight is the main cause of their poor health outcomes, often without fully testing or diagnosing them. While there has been a massive public health campaign urging fat people to eat right, eat less and lose weight, black women have been specifically targeted.

Perhaps — just spitballing here — perhaps black women have been specifically targeted by public health campaigns addressing obesity because, as the author says earlier in the same paragraph, "Black women have also been identified as the subgroup with the highest body mass index."


Just a thought?

The next sentence is just *chef's kiss*:


This heightened concern about their weight is not new; it reflects the racist stigmatization of black women's bodies.


To be clear: The Scientific American is telling you that the most obese subgroup in the U.S. is black women, and that concern about the health implications of obesity — championed by folks like, say, Michelle Obama — "reflects the racist stigmatization of black women's bodies.

Interesting research, Beeches!

Did you know that it is almost IMPOSSIBLE to get a science
GRANT to study "differences in the organic brains of
different races (especially Asian and Blacks)" in this
county? I thought it was just fastenating that the little
researching showing how the brains of Asians "organizes"
information forms a CIRCLE in the lobes of the brain
whereas in Caucasians information is broken up in "patches"
in various places of the brain and cannot be seen as so
"coherent" as the brain of Asians. One theory is the
language and writing of the Asian countries lends itself
to "better patterns" for the brain to organize--that language
staying little changed for 1,000s of years. English, on
the other hand is a collage of many different languages
that do not pattern in the same way for the brain.

Anyways...It is very hard to get support for science studies
with regard to race due to the cultural bias even in science.

I thought that was interesting.

I'm waiting for white flour and white sugar to be renamed "depigmented flour and sugar."

Surely that will help fight racism.

They really, really need to stop this victimization and realize that all people have their share of problems and not everything is racist--they are probably making people racist by their accusations. It is just horrible.
 Quoting: wkk


Everyone needs to focus more on just how leftwing or righting they and other people are.

What we're witnessing in today's America, if not the West in general, is a berserk form of liberalism metastasizing into a version of what Stalin, Hitler (a homosexual animal-rights lover), Mao, Castro, Pol Pot, Maduro, etc, etc, were or are all about.

Obesity and accusations of "racism" are just the grains of sand around which Leftist Academia generates its poison pearl.

This is what the stereotypical black woman on tv looks like.

Every sassy black woman comedian looks the same. I cant tell them apart.
