Hey, that's racist. :2razz:
There exist social forms of racism. As in racism that involves person to person relations. However, there is no institutional racism against white people in the US.
Until sometime in the mid 20th century Hispanics were counted as white by the US Census.I have a friend. She once shared with me that she doesn't believe interracial marriages are a good idea. Because of the children. Because of this. Because of that. Then I reminded her that her own husband is Hispanic. You should have seen her face. LOL. In her mind race was black or everything else not black and black was not good in most circumstances.
She's still a good friend just being privately honest. Nobody got hurt. We laughed about it afterwards. No innocent person got sent to jail (and a lot did prior to DNA testing,) Nobody was unfairly denied a promotion or pay raise but IMHO her views likely represent a significant number of people who don't have a black friend they feel safe enough to be honest with about their true gut level opinion of blacks and likely no other race except blacks.
Don't bother will polls in the polls forum. Waste of time.105 votes for no. Six forum members total. Sigh...
Should we remind them of Genghis Khan?What if the Asian thinks that he's morally superior because white people are violent, materialistic barbarians?
another poll jacked by leftwing trolls. Actually membership shows Yes winning.
Now I had a friend who made the apparent mistake, as a white woman, of marrying a black man. The black females in our church were rather terrible to her over that.
Yea black women do tend to get hot about that. Not all of course, but it is a sore spot in race relations.
Jill Scott wrote an article for Essence magazine that dealt with why black women hate white women who marry black men. Personally, I think that the article is racist in and of itself, because she thinks that white women have no right taking the educated black men that otherwise would be marrying black women. Who gives a **** who marries who? She was all like, "The white women get the educated, upwardly mobile black man while we get stuck with the rest," and I think that's bull****.
The membership on this forum is primarily white.
The OJ verdict proved to me that race trumps gender. Here was OJ, a now proven wife beater, and probable ex-wife murderer*, and when he was acquitted black women overwhelmingly cheered. Honestly, that floored me.Jill Scott wrote an article for Essence magazine that dealt with why black women hate white women who marry black men.

Hey there's white people in Da Hood too. Not only that, there's a separate 'Hood' that's almost all white, and its worse than the minority Hood. Darn meth-heads...

I do not know if this is true or not, but I have heard say that black women don't like white women who marry black men because they take away the better black men from them. If so, it's more of a jealously thing, it seems.
Yet, it seems counter to what is always preached to us that race shouldn't matter.
*- Most people, including myself, believe he did it, but I accept the verdict.

racism against whites happens constantly. example-yesterday I was helping the manager at the target range where I shoot, stock the vending machines. she was noting she hated going to SAMS rather than Costco because of the "racism". She is white and noted at Sams, the mainly black staff made her put all the products she was buying up on a counter rather than scanning it while was in the large cart. She said blacks with the same amount of stuff didn't have to do that.
Oh , come on now .. Simply walk thru an "all black" neighborhood at night , causing the "power" to suddenly shift .. Of course, no sane man does this ..OR , less insane , attend an all black church service on a Sunday morn, as I did once ..A strange , but uncomfortable feeling, caused by guilt feelings .. this should not be , but is .. Here again, the Blacks have the "power", but do not use it in any sort of violent manner ...nor do I believe that they are employing any racism , intentionally ..What harm can those with no power do to those who have all of the power? Fill us in. :roll:
thanks
