inside jamari fox inside jamari fox - taking you real deep
i didn’t know the foxhole was “anti white”.
that wasn’t my intention,
or even motivation,
when i made this website.
i got few scathing emails from one of my white readers today.
his opening email was…
“Your problem with advertisers is that it’s racist. You rip “snow wolves” and “snow foxes” and such all the tine. No advertisers want to be associated either the white put downs.”
hmm.
now i took offense to that.
there could be many reasons why i didn’t get accepted.
as pose texted me,
they didn’t give a reason so no need in trying to figure out why.
this reader allegedly worked at an ad company so they should know,
right?
i also got more with the subject line on one email,
“dehumanizing white references”:
“I’m not the one whining. You are. Stop playing victim and grow up. Drop the repugnant racist references. “
“Stop blaming me. Look in the mirror. Did I call you a jungle bunny? Would you find it cute if I did?
You’re behaving like racist Roseanne Barr who said to Valerie Jarrett: “I’m sorry if you think my comment was racist.”
Well, her comment was racist. And so are the incessant “snow bunny” references. That is racist too. Unlike you, I call out racism on both sides.”“You really think the snide snow bunny and snow wolf crap is witty?It’s not.It’s juvenile and racist, just as racist as when Archie Bunker — 40 years ago — referred to blacks as jungle bunnies. Do you think that reference is witty or racist?It cuts both ways. And advertisers are turned off by both forms of racism. I worked at an ad agency. Have you? I gave you professional judgment. Proceed as you wish. But stop whining. ““Grow up and stop whining. Stop aiming yiu blog at the lowest common denominator and maybe you will get some ads. That is unvarnished professional truth. You’re welcome.”
you know we was going at it.
….but my favorite part:
“PS I have given you money to help you out, something many of your black readers have not done, and you accuse me of being racist?
Says more about you than me. Stop blaming everyone else for your plight. You reap what you sow …”
ironically,
all of the donations in my tip jar were from black foxholers.
loved that typical assumption tho.
i wanted specific entries i was anti white.
they brought:
lee daniels and the white lead in “star”
white women and their love for black pipe
a black wolf leaving his black white for a white woman
ya know,
if i offended my white readers,
that isn’t my intention.
i don’t wake up thinking to hurl insults at white folks.
i get a ton of “anti white” stories and some don’t get posted.
i have fonted on black issues,
because as a black fox,
that’s what my experience in america is about.
in the foxhole,
we have a certain way of fonting that wasn’t meant to offend,
but maybe it does…
