Your Black Writers featured an article that addresses the "tragedy" that is Resident Evil 5:

The trailer featured a Caucasian male mutilating African villages, along with Africans. With the not-so ancient history of colonialism and neo-colonialism in Africa, the issue of racial insensitivity and indifference must be brought to the centerfold. This patent-reality must be interrogated excruciatingly to expose the silliness of those who claim the 21st century marked the dawn of a post-racial world.

Oh Dear. CAPCOM has been exposed yet again for what it is, a racist game software company. But the good thing is that it has finally gathered enough good sense to back down:

Despite Capcom claiming that Resident Evil 5 was not redesigned after Racism claims, it seems they have now bowed under pressure and decided to add more white characters to the game. It is especially noticeable that the racism claims got to them, as the game is set in an area of Africa where it wouldn't be likely to see white villagers.

What? Bullocks. CAPCOM was obviously sending racial slurs using RE5, like it was doing in RE, RE2, RE3, and RE4 before it. Just look at all the white and Spanish zombies in those earlier titles. Totally inappropriate.

Don't believe the title of this post? Well, remember a little game called Street Fighter? It had such outrageously racist caricatures such as Dhalsim and Sagat.

"YOGA!" "YOGA FIRE!"
"TIGER! "TIGER UPPERCUT!"

I'm amazed that more kids haven't been inspired by that game to become lawyers just to sue the pants off of CAPCOM.

...and don't even get me started about Chung Li. What's with the upskirt spinning kick!? Completely distasteful and sexist.

CAPCOM- Racist, Sexist, PIGS. BOYCOTT!!!

How often do you let other people’s nonsense change your mood? Do you let a bad driver, rude waiter, curt boss, or an insensitive employee ruin your day? Unless you’re the Terminator, you’re probably set back on your heels. However, the mark of your success is how quickly you can refocus on what’s important in your life.

Sixteen years ago I learned this lesson. And I learned it in the back of a New York City taxi cab. Here’s what happened.

I hopped in a taxi, and we took off for Grand Central Station. We were driving in the right lane when all of a sudden, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, the car skidded, the tires squealed, and at the very last moment our car stopped just one inch from the other car’s back-end.

I couldn’t believe it. But then I couldn’t believe what happened next. The driver of the other car, the guy who almost caused a big accident, whipped his head around and he started yelling bad words at us. How do I know? Ask any New Yorker, some words in New York come with a special face. And for emphasis, he threw in a one finger salute, as if his words were not enough.

But then here’s what really blew me away. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was friendly. So, I said, “Why did you just do that!? This guy could have killed us!” And this is when my taxi driver told me what I now call, “The Law of the Garbage Truck™.” He said:

Many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they look for a place to dump it. And if you let them, they’ll dump it on you.

So when someone wants to dump on you, don’t take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Believe me. You’ll be happier.

So I started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the street? It was then that I said, “I don’t want their garbage and I’m not going to spread it anymore.”

I began to see Garbage Trucks. Like in the movie “The Sixth Sense,” the little boy said, “I see Dead People.” Well now “I see Garbage Trucks.” I see the load they’re carrying. I see them coming to dump it. And like my taxi driver, I don’t take it personally; I just smile, wave, wish them well, and I move on...

The lowered manufacturing costs of most of the goods consumed in the world today has helped drive down inflationary forces, which in turn have allowed Central Banks to open the spigots further and flood the world with easy credit and liquidity in order to keep markets booming and to avoid any painful recession. The fact that this fiscal loosening also sent the U.S. dollar falling has continued the virtuous cycle as imports into America became even cheaper and more plentiful.

America's trading partners are acutely aware that with the housing bubble showing signs of deflating, the U.S. consumer may be just about tapped out and flagging from a spending binge that has squandered much of world savings.
