No, lol --those that I know well enough to have heard opinions on this topic are Caucasian. Boomer--60's--South, it is a matter of record that race was/is still in some parts, an issue.

I know more hardcore racist that are black, than I do that are white.

I certainly have my preferences when it comes to people. Every day I hear --'I cannot stand people who ---insert any human quality or habit'

I would rather have a racist for my next door neighbor than a pedophile.
