Some people are racist and there is nothing you can do about it.
Yes, so we should deflect away and refuse call the Nation of Gods and Earths racist and therefore support their ideology. The white man has the devil in him, yes? Black men have God in them, unless they have a white parent, yes?

Thanks for pointing out the obvious. However; some feel that only white people can be racist. That is the hypocrisy.
A lot of people here on CD openly feel that racism against white people is either justified or less important than racism against blacks for the simple reason that many decades ago some dead folks did something bad to some other dead folks.

Indeed. And being that we weren't part of it, can't we just move on already? Nobody is disputing that slavery was bad. Of course it was. So what do we do? Do we continue to play the blame game for the sins of some long dead folks, or do we learn from it, grow from it, and move on? I prefer the latter.
I remember being in Seattle about a year ago and looking at a very long line of people forming outside a church. There were families and people from all backgrounds. They didnt look like really poor people like people who live under a bridge but like everyday people. Quite a few children. I thought maybe something special was going on. Turns out it was the nightly dinner the church put on for poor people. They get their food from foodbanks, stores, donations, etc.
The same people that their God would have them help.
