Why is it that if someone comes out as being racist to a black person the whole world is against them but if someone were to be racist against a white person it wouldn't seem racist at all??
I'm black and I agree - I do think it's because 'white' people are seen as more powerful in society, and black people are seen as a poor ethnic group who need looking after, but it is very patronising. I do meet black people who are racist against both white people and asian people, and recently there was some trouble between black and asian people. I think it needs addressing 'cos I feel just as offended when I hear black people being anti against whites. If it's about equality, then it should be about equality of standards for all people, not one standard for one group and another standard for a different group.
Well hildud, or was it duf?, oh well, I am a liberal, and I don't think it is okay at all to be a racist! Against any race! And white people are far from perfect, and any who think they are should remember they have to sit on the pot, just like everyone else, and when they do, it stinks! So grow up! White people are not better than any one else! and others have just as much right to say so! It is a free world! Well , most of it is!
Because it's hip and politically correct to be racist against white folks.
You can thank the ultra-liberals for that mindset.
As for my opinion, a racist is a racist. No matter what. I don't care what race you're for or against... if you're for or against any RACE of people... you're a racist, and you're wrong.

This time read more than 2 lines of the answer you wish to criticize. And yes. It's the ultra-liberals who have made it hip and politically correct to be racist against whites.
Because blacks in today's society are led to believe that they are still in the eras when anti-culturalism (since racism is a misnomer as we are all one race, human) was still alive and well in our nation.
If there is such "racism" today as far as the black culture is concerned, it is being preserved by the liberals who continue to keep them in "victim mode". Remove this mentality from the black culture and there will be a marked change for the better.
In light of that, a Caucasian who is attacked, culturally, by a person of another culture, cannot make the "racism" claim because, in the eyes of the liberal whites and the minorities who have fallen into the victim mode, the white person being attacked is just getting "some of their's back."
I'm not like that at all!! Not all blacks are the same, you know!! If a person is racist whether, black, white, chinese, asian etc society should be against them.... why are you people so easy to assume that black people think the same! Jeez arrogant or what!!
I agree, they remove black dolls from shops saying they are racist but leave the white dolls alone. Talk about double standards. I'm sick of the state of our country now, Blair is a traitor.
I don't agree...racism is racism no matter whoever practises it!! I think if we go back in history,..it began with white people (although, not all) and many people today, still believe it is this 'group' that practises racism more than others. Personally speaking, I think all racists are ignorant & pathetic as they do not respect others for who they are and resort to name-calling / violence...message to them all: GROW UP!!
Because 99.9% of the time its the white person that is being racist. I am white . I have ears and eyes. White racists are breeding like rats and spreading their hate.
Its like that Catholic fraud, you know when a baby is born you have the original sin on your soul. We have to pay for the mistakes of your father, your grandfather etc etc; which pisses me off because they werent racist at all, they were just regular Joes providing for their family.

Because some people think that only White people can be racist.So how can they be victims of racism, if they're the only ones that are being racist?http://globalpolitician.com/articledes.asp?ID=2564...
