Someone from Random Pics and Gifs said some guy from Belgium and 4 autists from /pol/ set that up and sent thousands of emails out. Not sure on the specifics though.

My biggest question is if they specifically looked for black emails or they just used a bunch of random emails and they managed to hit the mark since blacks would be most vocal about it.

The email apparently actually came from Walmart but they were deliberately subscribed by someone who scraped a bunch of emails and submitted them on their form, presumably with a script.

In his mind it's not okay for her to use slurs associated with his race, and he can kick her changed cup and throw (I hope) water on her, but it's perfectly okay for him to use slurs associated with her sex, so long as he does a half-assed apology afterwards in which he blames her for him calling her slurs associated with her sex. Got it.

technically we owe the very existence of zombies to the black folks. The idea originated in the voodoo culture of the west indies and Louisiana. Course back then it was a ledged told to the field slaves by the privilaged "house slaves." As a way to discourage the slaves from killing themselves.

Basically in the voodoo legends, a slave who killed himself thinking it'd be a way out would have his soul taken and his body possessed by the snake god zumbi or Zombie in english. A slave even in death so to speak. As slavery ended, the ledged got reworked to refer to anyone killed by a voodoo high preiest, only to come back to life and rise from the grave as a brainless servant.
 

Saw this out of random, and thought it was cool to see an older black gentlemen try out electronic engineering as a college major. He used to study accounting and marketing, and he decided to do a career change.

It’s stories like this that we’ll never hear that much of in the mainstream, and it gets overshadowed by political and activist movements by “civil rights leaders”.

On the other hand, virtually all cultures have some variation of the living dead, vampires the most common type. Romero-brand zombies (and their prototypes like Frankenstein's Monster) don't bear too many similarities to voodoo zombies, and weren't even considered such by Romero himself. It's a hard sell to compare the Voodoo stories to what we see now with, say, Resident Evil's T-Zombies.

eh fair point. hell i wouldn't be surprised if the whole "suicides come back as zombies" thing was inspired by the European belief that vampires were people who offed themselves....but to stay on track
