A third of the women in the military are black. That is racist. And why do they need a National Association of Black Military Women? Is there a white association? Hell no!

By DEFAULT you already HAVE a "white" association. The MAJORITY of the military. Same thing for BET(which is NOT black owned),Ms. Black America, HBCU,etc...
They're still a minority group in a minority group. Maybe if the US were a black majority country where the political power was clearly in the hands of black people groups for white people would be needed.
But keep missing the point, and see you next Black History Month for the inevitable "Where's mah WHITE History Month?" froth.
Uh, you know people CHOOSE to go into the U.S. Military, right?
Oh I get it! Racist against YOU, not those black women.
Please shove a grenade up your butt. Thank you.
Hey Sad, why not fall down a well? And why is having a third of the women in the military being black racist? Too many? Not enough?
Why do we need a NABMW? For the same reason we need an NAACP even though we have a lot of laws to prevent discrimination. We also have a lot of asshats who do everything they can to get around these laws.
“A third of the women in the military are black.”
So, women are 15%, black women would then be, what 5% of the military? One person in 10.
"That is racist.”
What? That a whole 5% are black women? Or that ONLY 5% are black women? What can you possibly be upset about?
And it’s a volunteer service, too. Who is it making this ‘racist’ decision?
“And why do they need a National Association of Black Military Women?”
Maybe ask them? I’d ask my wife, but i don’t think she was a member.
And gosh, why would a group that’s 5% of the whole want to band together to protect their interests?
“Is there a white association? Hell no!”
Why would i have wanted an association to protect my interests while i was in? The system protected me and my interests. The ONLY billet i was ever too white to fill was the Equal Employment Opportunity Counselor. Couldn’t get the school because white people aren’t credible in that billet.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
