Back to the topic: Racism. Some will see it everywhere. Some look for it. If you expect it, believe it, and look for it, you WILL FIND IT. It has been said that if the only tool you have is a hammer, then all of your problems will look like nails to you. Some people cry "Racism!" because they know how to fight that kind of problem. yes, some people, probably EVERYONE , can and does make bad calls.. can we focus on the issue of racism that exists though,,? Can we refrain from begging the question? My point is that some people see non-existing racism because racism is the only problem that they know how to fight. Also, what good does it do to "focus on the issue of racism that exists" if only certain racism is criticized while other racism is given a pass? |

To expand on my last comment... I had a liberal girlfriend who did a report on racism for college. Her conclusion was that "racism" could be found anywhere if one looked hard enough. Even if it didn't actually exists... So perhaps we need to ask ourselves from a philosophical standpoint; "Is looking for racism causing racism to exist where it otherwise wouldn't?" At least in part... And, "At what point are we finding things that aren't real?" I only go on my own experience and white racism is pretty rampant especially in the area of where they are ignorant of their own racism that they were taught and perpetuate. Whites don't even realize they are racists quite often. I speak on my races racism because I am in a position to be exposed to it by them. well, i guess it's good there are people like you to tell them what they don't know...

It seems her only experience has been in the realm of the ignorant. She speaks very well for them too. |

Inquiring minds want to know....... Why is it that the ones who seem to protest racism are the very ones who seem to wish it remain an issue? |

Perhaps you should be arguing your case with others like yourself who want to make race an issue..... perhaps the KKK or the NBPP? Don't think you'll find many of that thought process here....unless you wish to create them for your own peace of mind..... but don't expect too many of us to side with your discontent.... we don't consider race an issue as you seem to. |
