Boise, Idaho - Still racist?

Boise, Idaho, has lived a long, eventful history of racism perceived by citizens of the United States in our great country. I personally am originally from Grand Rapids, Michigan the home of our late President Gerald R. Ford. I grew up in a place where my mother was a pitcher known for our neighborhood softball team, the Ghetto All-Stars. I am African-American and graduated from Mountain Home High School in Idaho, where I played basketball for former Olympic great EdPalubinskas.

Boise, Idaho ... well, let's say, its definitely a start area of a few African-Americans, but oh man, there are many Hispanics who speak only in relation to any other race besides Caucasian in the entire state of Idaho. Cheering is suddenly for the Boise State University Broncos, these days, what is at stake, "as far as the Boiseans are affected. Sales, sales, sales!

Many U.S. dollars are generated for the community of Boise and the "WhiteCollar "boys of corporate world Boise, of which I get" stares and stares "from the local Boise Family YMCA on a daily basis. Go figure, I look like the same children from the qualification requirements of the Boise State football and Boise State University basketball, that they (whites) cheer on a weekly basis. Oh, keep the cheering is placed on money won or after victories or influenced by alcoholic stimulation of a few cans of Coors Light!

Anyway, it goes withoutsay, I spend my fair share of time at Boise State University and I do not personally congratulatory hand shakes and gestures of appreciation given by the citizens of the community of African-American players of all time. I can not remember when I last heard former Boise State University and NBA player Chris Child's name on the radio or news, and he is a multi-millionaire! I think no one in Boise, has ever a hand-out of him ... just get a little ..., say to $ 500,000$ 1,000,000

The fact that local melting pot of visitors and local services such as the Public Library in Boise, Boise's Main Post Office, and they also get ... the local media, including television (KTVB Channel 7, KBCI, KIVI Channel 6 and Channel 2), Radio and Print deal, not African-Americans on a consistent basis, I worry to some degree. The reason is, one would conclude that African Americans are either turning down job offers from these organizations (a means to meet theirliving) or simply not offered the positions in the first place (that is so 1960-ish)! I would bet willing to $ 11,000,000, while the jobs to African-American children in the school of their internship or made, would be welcomed arms as a way for themselves and their families, provide them to be independent, whether in the position most is situated "white" Boise, Idaho. In other words, the jobs are not and will not definitely interviews. The last time I saw aAfrican-American reporting of the news in Boise, I think, Milli Vanilli was still perceived as REAL!

Either way racism is from the dinner tables of ignorance. Generations of ignorant people who just do not get enough of Martin Luther King Jr, Harriet Tubman, Jackie Robinson, and oh yeah ... Barack Obama saw our nation's First Black President. Please, just once, give me the opportunity to see a journalist or reporter American. Please, just once giveme the chance to see, a former black Boise State Athlete featured on the radio (from a few "halfway" from Fruitland, Idaho, that I ever had puttin seen events at local sporting an 8 beers and then drive his wife and children to place home), please, just one time, give me a chance, my post about an African American at Boise Local Post give.

Get this ... I'm not in the Boise YMCA's Local Hot Tub with over 5 different African-Americans (the catch is I have sat aMember since almost a decade, and I'm in the hot-tub 3-4 days / week)! In other words, we (African Americans) are still foreign Boiseans, much less Boiseans, yet un-President Boiseans like to ... Boise is still racist?

I can not help but imagine, if Boise State senior Bush Hamdan, who real name is something like Jibran (Arabic), were not in favor of freshman quarterback Kellen Moore benched when ticket sales or the number of wins would have fallen. In other words, with BoiseState football schedule ... My grandmother could have played quarterback and led them to the Rose Bowl! Why not a moral endorsement of the varieties at a higher (even if his name of Islam from the roots). I thought that if he changed his name to "Bush", they would surely him the nod ... NOT!

How bout 'if African-American quarterback Nate Sparks of Boise State (during his senior year) was in favor of the second year, the team benched out what someone could have done on the basistheir schedule. In other words, it always seems a rally cry for "whites" of Boise in view of the cold shoulder for the position of quarterback at Boise State University. You can not tell me that the ethical responsibility to deal justly with our communities beloved athletes is maintained at the Boise State University. Listening to conversations about Boise, my take is that so many Boiseans forget that these children! Some of the comments I show here at local venuesthe games on television is absurd!

Let us not forget the turnout for Barack Obama came to Boise's Taco Bell Arena. Oh man, I was there on that cold, cold, cold morning. Husbands of women who had received, which were of warm beds in the early AM hours of the morning "ticked off" to say the least. None-the-less, they were standing there in line for a very long time. In fact, when I felt on the door, giggling as my fingers like a frozen bar, if it's the only thing in the freezerwith no company!

Every hip-hop hoorayin, takin pictures, smilin, laughin, Shakin hands like crazy. Oh yeah ... Obama lost the state of Idaho by the 2nd largest margin of any state in America (fron-runner was Utah, and trust me, Boiseans seem almost envious of!)

Boise is still racist? Ask African-Americans with a university degree who have applied for bank staff positions in Boise, found only for white children or even Spanish (everything other than African-American) with GED's awarded thePosition to ask African-American with a college degree, who have for basic production jobs at Micron Technology or used Hewlett Packard, only for white children or even Hispanics (everything other than African-American) with GED's got the position (that is so 1960-ish ) found African-Americans are asking a university degree who have applied for basic entry jobs even temporarily services, only for white children or even Hispanics (anything other than African-American) with a GED (and in some cases not even a'! Green-Card ") received the position (that is so 1960-ish) and ask African-Americans with college degree who have applied for basic entry-telemarketing jobs at the local Boise telephone companies, etc., only for white children or even Hispanics (anything but African-American) with GED's got the position (that is so 1960-ish), well ... it's a good thing Idaho is only 4 electoral during presidential elections, Barack or not! And this brings me to why ... was it solarge turnout for a man who apparently nobody voted for in Idaho? Is it that attractive (this is so 1960-ish)? If he is that creative (which is so 1960-ish)? If it is, the ability (which is so 1960-ish)? Is it our Nation's 1st Black President married with our nations very, very, very first African-American first lady (that's so ... 2009)?
