What is racism really?

Blacks said lets live together and equal

Whites said lets not.

How can both groups be guitly of racism when one group doesn't like another because they are racists?

Am I a racist because I hate racist white people?

Most black people don't like whites because of a stereotype that once upon a time very true. (and still is unfortunately, as I have learned)

Not all whites said "lets not". I grew up in a very racially divided town in Mississippi and can recall a black friend of mine who always told me just to ride with him when I wanted to go to his house. The reason? Because some of the blacks in his neighborhood hated whites and would have vandalized my car if I left it parked there. Didn't stop me from wanting to hang out with him and play Nintendo for hours, but it seemed awfully weird having to meet him somewhere in town and park my car there because of the hatred towards whites by some of his neighbors. And some of the times I dropped him off after school I would be told "get the f--k out of here white boy" by blacks in their yards as I passed by.

Didn't mean they were all that way and I knew that. I knew plenty of white people that were the same way. So to try and pin on one side or the other is just ignorant. Both sides have good apples and bad apples.

Well, this guy is the founder of BET. He is black, as you can tell. If BET isn't currently owned or programmed by black people, you can't really blame anyone but him.

Well..
Racism is when you hate or discriminate against someone because of the color of their skin. If a person hates a white racist because he/she is white, then that person is a racist.

So by that logic, that makes black slaves racists.

Also I'm so sick of white men whining. It has the be the most pathetic thing in the world. If a white man can't make it in America who should he blame?
Yes, that's right,.......himself.
IMO especially the white man has no race card.
It's called majority dominance. Look it up.

No, not necessarily. If I had to guess, I'd say that they hated white people because they were enslaved by them, not because they were white.

So is it less pathetic for a black man or woman to whine?

If a white man can't make it in America who should he blame?
Yes, that's right,.......himself.

Exactly. And if a black woman can't make it in America, who should she blame? Yes, that's right.. herself.

Actually I would blame Viacom who owns BET now....

Majority dominace ??? Look around, whites are the minority in America. If a "white man" can't make it in America, in my opinion that would make him like millions of black , yellow , red, and purple men. I am so sick of hearing about race related issues in this country. I am Native American and my people suffered their fair share of struggle in this country. Not one person on this earth has ever heard me complain that the white man took this country from us, etc. Some of you people that are so hung up on race issues are so far living in the past that I wonder if you will ever see today or envision tomorrow. Love knows no colors

I didnt say BET is a racist network but just imagine when "WET" comes out how much flack whites would get....the name of the channel could be different.....that's alll im saying...its fine to show all your cultures shows because obviously there is a large audiance to watch and i do watch BET sometimes to....im just saying that "White Entertainment Television" is something that whites would be called racists for having

[WallStreetWarrior]

I see PPG is taking on the role of the "angry black guy". Hmm. Well, I feel that the rights to the ownership of BET have very little to do with this topic; I'm really not sure how we got here.
