RACISM

[kawilt]

The word racism is being thrown about quite a bit lately. The only part of the definition I would agree with is "the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race". Does that make someone a "racist" ? Or do you have to feel superior to that race, and hate, to be a racist?
What does it take in your view to be a racist? What does it take to be anti semetic?

All races have racists alot of african americans are extremely racist toward white people and whites are also racist. But whites are the stereo typical racists, you might find in a trailer park in alabama or something. Being racist in my opinion mostly has to do with hate against someone that doesnt have the same skin tone, or religion. We are all fucking human so i dont see where people get off hating on one another. And i already know, you dont have to be a certain race to be muslim, or whatever but people will discriminate ahainst tbat aswell and associate brown people with that religion.

The words "racist" and "racial" seem to be conflated in today's society despite having totally contrasting definitions.

Racism is what is dividing this country and it is a big problem. We have lost sight of what it is to be human. The color of skin isn't the way to judge people.

Haven't we learned through history?

Only one race was brought to this country as slaves. The hatred for that will never end.
I'm not making excuses for it, and you would be foolish not to realize that fact. We are no better than other animals in the wild kingdom. We are only much more dangerous. It is just in our nature. We are the only species that has the capacity to destroy the planet we live on, and we will.

I know nobody cant take back what had happenes to african americans. None of it is right but not all white people today should be scrutenized for the actions we made hundreds of years ago. We as humans have moved forward and progressed. The chinese were basically enslaved in canada to build our railways. Yet we dont see them holding onto what had happened in the past. People today have no control over what happened in the past.

Hmm never knew that I'll have to research that. Didn't know Chinese people were even over there. Oh but don't forget Chinese people have a homeland blacks don't have the option to go to Africa, Africans hate us. Also I love white people to be honest, friendly for the most part, my wife is white. My son barley has any color. Dont let what random black people on TV speak for the whole community. I really just have a distrust for LE not whites in general.

I knew someone was going to mention that. They were not breed like farm animals. Thier women were not routinely raped. No race has seen institutionalized racism like black people in America. For Christ sake many were so intimidated that you can't say they even had a vote in what happened to them until the last 3-4 decades. You wonder why inner cities have a graduation rate of 25%. There is no future, most are dead by the age of 50.

You are correct in that most white people have done nothing to black people, but if they are wise they will understand what has happened, and understand why they are not safe sometimes. Only white people have Kumbaya moments, and only the well off. The poor are all in the same boat now.

Another thing most people don't know about is Reparations. Blacks think that we were sappose to get money for the atrocities of the past, but really reparations were paid to slave owners for having to free their slaves. They don't teach that shit in school. If you have a field of black people picking cotton for your business and suddenly now you have no work force the government felt they had to pay these people for their loss

The world is full of so much hate today, sometimes people just have to let the past be the past and realize that the color of your skin shouldnt matter there is always going to be a bad apple in every race

Notice how he had a hatchet and threw it at the police and they didnt even shoot him. Sad to say it but If this happened south of the border to someone of different colour the outcome definitely would not have been the same.

I figured once he dropped it they would rush his crazy ass, but I guess after taking that taser they were like fuck it get him next week

I'm a Caucasian guy and have no idea how it feels to be African American nor would I even pretend to ,I was with an African American woman for close to 10years and have 2boys 20&15 and a daughter 14 and all 3 have brown skin. It's sad that i gotta worry more about my oldest son being killed by a police officer when he leaves with his girlfriend every night because the color of his skin by someone I have raised him to believe is there to protect him and rather a lotta white people wanna admit it or not racial profiling extends to so many other areas in society besides just LE , when he goes for a job , to rent a house or even in the corner grocery store and the sad thing is so many Caucasians make racial assumptions about African Americans so often that it has become programmed in their mind as facts and don't really realize how fucked up and racist their way of thinking is because it what is their normal way of thinking. We have a long way to go all of us.

Sadly we probably won't see any positive change in our lifetime

Hell I guess I count as white even though my grandparents could legally own a casino and my dad's grandparents came from Ireland. I treat every single damn person like they're from a different race...why because I don't care what damn race you claim. It's your actions and your attitude that I care about.


That kind of makes me sound like an asshole but I'm probably the nicest guy anybody could meet. I have several dark friends and several pale friends

 

[ickyrica]

The Jews were enslaved in Egypt for what was it like, 400 years? No reparations for them from black people... Shits been going on since day one and it isn't going anywhere. it'll be here longer than cockroaches. I'm not racist by any means myself. I can't be, unless I'm self hating. I'm a mutt. I just don't see racism even standing a chance at going away unless some Independence Day stuff happens, unites us.

Reverse racism is strange when you first experience. That was 2 weeks ago. I thought about it everyday for the last 2 weeks.
