All races are racist, but some have more power than others. Why act so wounded?

I will not make that argument that Blacks are not racist. I will, however, reveal to those who don%26#039;t seem to know it that Whites still hold the most power. Whites are the ones that can redline races and keep them in certain areas (and cut the funding to those areas while lying about it on television), Whites are the ones that can still get the best jobs (education doesn%26#039;t matter when it comes to this and affirmative action will never take a White man%26#039;s job no matter how much he complains about it), and will always keep a white man in office and make ridiculous excuses about why it has nothing to do with race.


The first step to fix this evil is to admit it and face it head on, like I have done. I cannot be the only person with the moral fiber and ability to look outside of myself and walk in another%26#039;s shoes, can I?

All races are racist, but some have more power than others. Why act so wounded?
Those in power will never relinquish that power and make those who are powerless as powerful. If someone has the power to give they also have the power to take away. Therefore as long as the Black man desires to sit at the White man%26#039;s table as his equal without the ability to make himself equal through acquisition of power, he will always be a victim of racism. The only solution is for the Black men to create his own table...
Reply:See black folks, this is a condescending, closet racist if there ever was one. As if all blacks agree with you, as if it takes any %26quot;moral fiber%26quot; to condense all of the black communities problems into a neat little package, put a bow on it and call it the white man. My god how gracious and white of you. Examine yourself. Your ideology is as much of the problem as any of those you accuse .





Self righteous much?





OGUN I agree.

Soon the sun will be shining and you will wonder why you asked this question. Its out-dated to still be thinking along these lines when you should appreciate how things like this have really moved on. The divide is sooo minimal now that it%26#039;s barely worth mentioning or worrying about.

Go Obama!
Reply:all we need to do is stop this bull of trying to catagorise evryone and everything, get our thumbs out and realise that we are all human, all too human, and get on with it. and it needs to start in America, seeing as the yanks are so damned good at apartied and living up to stereotypes. anyone who claims any different is either a typical narrow-minded redneck colonial or a self-deluded liar.
Reply:I completely agree. If I hear another person barking %26quot;racism%26quot; in reference to Obama, BET, black universities, and not being able to use the %26quot;n word%26quot;, I%26#039;m going to vomit up my intestines. These people don%26#039;t seem to realize that what racism really is, and what discrimination really is. I can%26#039;t imagine how they%26#039;d react if they had to trade places with any given Black person for just one day, and have to put up with all of the ignorance that one must experience as a Black person.
Reply:We are not, and you sound like just another person who loves to rewrite everyone else%26#039;s personal experiences to fit your world view.
Reply:No you can%26#039;t and you aren%26#039;t! I believe that in order for us as ppl to fix this problem is to relinquish the titles of races. It enables ppl to play the race card in the first place. If everyone is labeled as one race, like american then there is no room to place the race card because there wouldn%26#039;t be one.the next step is to break everyone back down to one level. interviews without in person without faces, like in the catholic church and make it harder on those who show discrimination and hate towards ANYONE of a different %26quot;race.%26quot; We need to be reunited and personally I think Obama is the man to do it. Not b/c he is black(b/c he%26#039;s not,he is hawiaan and black or something to that effect) but because he envokes new thoughts in ppl of many backgrounds and he has already changed America and he isn%26#039;t even in the whitehouse! Poin Blank and simple we need to becom a UNITED STATES and not SEPARATE BUT EQUAL STATES! SO THERE!
Reply:Yes Whites are seen as the %26quot;most%26quot; racist because they do hold the most power in the American society. They manipulating the media is undeniable and we all know it in the back of our minds.





Thank you for understanding unlike those who continue to not understand why they are constantly blamed.
Reply:Racism wounds everyone. It wouldnt the person that feels it and strikes out and it wounds the victim. Yes white people do hold the power and hopefully slowly things are changing. Vote for Obama and you will see balance in the country.
Reply:act wounded or victimized or playing the victim role because it%26#039;s easy and requires no responsibility. when you put yourself in that position, it%26#039;s easy to win arguments or convince people or win over people or make them feel sorry for you so they hand you stuff like special treatment. it%26#039;s just another copout. reaffirms the observation of no accountability in that group.





anyone can be racist. every race has racists. there shouldn%26#039;t be a double standard. PCness is going too far now. both sides or all sides should and need to stop pointing fingers, stop blaming others, put aside their differences and not worry about losing face, and just be friends and MOVE ON. we need to PROGRESS, not linger on holding grudges. fighting racism with more racism is not going to end racism. in fact, it only provokes more racism. if only everyone stop with the race cards and be accountable then we as society would progress. otherwise, racism will never end like a vicious cycle over and over again: whites on top, then blacks on top, then whites on top, then blacks on top, and so on.





and by the way, just because i didn%26#039;t mention other races other than black and white, doesn%26#039;t mean i%26#039;m being negative towards them. so stop pointing fingers and take some accountability instead of playing the victim card.
