There is so much more than racism, there is nationalism/xenophobia, religious bias, disability bias, economic or social bias, and sexual orientation bias, to say otherwise is to have your head in the sand. People fear and judge those who are different than themselves. |

No intelligent being would make a stop here and make themselves known to us because we can't even stop mistreating and killing each other.

No white person in these here United States has a grasp on discrimination and being on the receiving end of hatred in the same context as non whites in this country. No matter how much hatred they spew out of their mouth to try to make others believe they do have that kind of understanding. America has always favored whites over everyone else and we are not at equality yet. I laugh at this statement. I am sure we can find some older Jewish "white" people in this country that lived through the holocaust. But I am sure since they are white they don't know discrimination. What about people that lived abroad. When I go back to the US you will say I don't know discrimination. I have had plenty of discrimination here in Japan but I don't really complain. You shouldn't make broad generalizations. I am sure a young non white brought up in a upper middle class suburbia doesn't face that much discrimination based on race. |

racism is a hard thing and as can be seen one that is very controversial. i am first nations and like many others i have also grown up experiencing racism as well as facing an uphill battle to live.
i have taken some social work courses also and have learned that statistically minorities are on the top of most lists ...be it living in poverty, suicide, incarceration, diseases and second rate education. and the list goes on...the system doesnt work and hasnt worked since the beginning of contact. now i dont even have to state stats ...i could just look at my home and at the nieghboring places....it is a sad reality. now to be fair ...there are changes being made and there are people whose eyes are being opened everyday and there are people who are working to change the way things are for the better. i hope and pray for these changes not for me but for the future generations. i hope to have a hand in helping bring along any change :) |

You shouldn't make broad generalizations. I am sure a young non white brought up in a upper middle class suburbia doesn't face that much discrimination based on race. That's not what she said. Anyway I was still called a cracker in the US. I have to be more PC because I am a white male. And my comment about upper middle class minorities not facing much discrimination is true. Yet white people are often accused of being racist when we are not being so and that is actually racist. Here is an example. In highschool my vietnamese friend made cupcakes for my birthday. Basically for my small group of friends including white Vietnamese Hispanic and Pakistani. Very ethnically diverse. Anyway and African American boy we don't know comes up to use and demand we give him some. We tell him no and he proceeds to say how it is because he was black. He is completely ignoring the fact we never saw him before. This is a common occurrence growing up as a white kid. I think the post was about the different experiences of AMERICANS,,, and the experiences inside of AMERICA |

Sorry the quotes thing messed up on my phone and I can't really fix it with just my phone. My point isn't that minorities are not discriminated against. My point is whites are. We are always thought of as being racist when many of us have done nothing to deserve this. We are white so we are automatically racist and there is no racism towards us. Those ideas in of themselves are racist towards white people.

Those ideas in of themselves are racist towards white people. I agree, I think it is as idiotic to assume someone is racist because they are white as it is to assume they are racist because they are black I cant restate often enough that all people have INSTANCES in their lives of some type of bigotry or another, BUT , when it comes to INSTITUTIONAL RACISM IN AMERICA, I dont know of a group who has come close to being left out and cut back as often and as long as minorities,, so when I hear about a serial killer who happens to be white, I dont assume his whiteness was what made him what he is, and when I hear people attribute the DISPARATE numbers which apply to black people in areas like education, employment, crime I dont assume being black made them what they are but rather that the disparate treatement of the system at large contributed to the disparate NUMBERS |

I don't think the point of the article is that minorities are not discriminated against. I don't think anyone thinks that way. The point is that whites are discriminated against as well and many people over look it. If any group of white kids beat up any minority group it would be a big racial issue. If it was a minority group beating up a white kid it would be less of a racial issue probably. I would also like to mention that even though I am white the supreme court recognizes me as a minority group. Roach v. Dresser Industries Valve and Instrument Division Supreme court ruling in 1980 states that Cajuns are a minority group. |
