In all honesty, most people are a little racist...People judge people by skin color, hair color, culture, language--it's inevitable that people will have preconcieved notions based on someone's race. Black people can be as racist as anyone. There is a fine line between simple judgements based on race and fullblown feelings of racial supremecy and hatred of other races.
The Nation of Islam was basically founded on racist ideology(although it could be argued that it was a product of racism as well)--isn't wasn't until Malcolm X travelled to Mecca that he renounced his former racist beliefs...
One really does wonder why so many Whites tend to focus and fixate on Black people "Can Black people..." "Do Black people..." "Why do Black people..." "Are Black people..."
Do they ever ask themselves "Why am I focusing on Black people?" "Can't I ask this same question about Asians, Native Americans or Latinos?"
Or maybe I should take some time to examine why I personally fixate on what Black people think, say, do, etc?

It might have something to do with the numerous threads about white racism that pop up here started by black people. Maybe, just a thought.
It is somewhat frightening to me that anyone would propose this as a serious question. Do you know what the definition of a racist is? This should answer your question.
Is Jeremiah Wright a racist. Yes. Is Jessie Jackson a racist, yes, Al Sharpton, of course. Nuff said.
idiots and bigots come in all shapes and sizes, though they tend to be of one [church going] variety
You are calling people idiots and bigots and then you make a broad generalization that "they tend to be of one (church going) variety"
Truly unbelievable. And scary.
Al Sharpton and Obama's spiritual mentor, Revered Wright, to name a few.
There is also a Black Supremacy organization.
