Personal, Thoughts & Feelings - Can black people be racist? (58 replies).

FreestyleArt · 36-40, M

yes. NFL is a perfect example

If a person hates, distrusts, or discriminates against another person because of their race, then they are being racist, regardless, of their own race or the race of the person they're doing it to.

Oprah Winfrey, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson - yes but the politically correct nutters will deny this

Maybe? It doesn't matter. It's not like someone can hurt me by calling me a cracker. I have never heard an offensive white people joke.

Racism is only a thing of consequence and meaning when you've got one race in social power stepping on another.

CountScrofula · 41-45, M

Not in any way that's meaningful or useful. It's not like anyone is going to hurt me by calling me a cracker or whatever.

Yes I experienced this first hand when my kids were younger .I had a black woman and her white husband living next door .She made our lives a misery so in the end we moved .The arguments with her husband were ridiculous and she was always abusing our kids in our garden .She called us white honkies ,white pigs ,that we had no right to be living next door to her because it was a black area and a lot more .She also used to hurl insults at her husband you could clearly hear that were very racist.We complained to our local council and the police countless times but it did no good so in the end we moved .

Everyone can be racist; within their own continent, country, region, where physical appearances begin to differ, and those who are racist find any fault and attribute it to one’s melanin count and facial features, thus feeling superior over a certain race/ethnicity. When the Romans conquered most of Eruope, they veiwed all the British Isle Celtic and Germanic Celtic tribes (in and around Roman territory) as barbarians, savages, that’s racism. Racism has always existed, it just has a name now and westerners have organized it.

All races can be racist, but there is a lot of hypocrisy behind it all. Some say it’s racist if white people are proud of their own skin. Little do they know it does offend us having to feel shame for being proud of our heritage. We should all be proud of who we are any colour any gender because we are all human.

Yes because I think people are people regardless of race, we all have biases due to our own experiences. I've been discriminated against because I have tattoos.. actually lots of times. There's a surprisingly good amount of stupid stuff I've been judged for.

Then again people will kill over 5 dollars, I just feel like no one is better than anyone else for that reason.

Unfortunately racism crosses every barrier known to the human race

Of course some are. However, what consitutes as racist is what I feel some people are confused by. A black person speaking out on racism more than anyone else does not mean they are racist or race baiters as some people want to believe. They’re more out spoken about it.

Violentxdelights · 22-25, F

judging by the poll & the comments, majority says yes, black people can be racist lol

Zoeoz · 31-35, F

Yeah, people of color can be individually racist, but not systemically.

tallpowerhouseblonde · 36-40, F

Yes.They have called people white trash.

Dan193 · 31-35, M

Damn, the poll is so one sided. I've never seen so many votes on one option before.

Dateless · 31-35, M

Depends where you’re located in the world.

Is the majority white?
Is the majority Asian?
Is the majority Indian?
Is the majority Mexican?

In America, No I don’t think 200+ years of slavery and then no repurations for the future generations to thrive and actually contribute to society says nothing about a systematic oppression at all.

But oh if I call the white guy with the nasty ass greesey hair and a finger sandwich eating toe draggin always want to play hero ass bitch, I’m wrong.

Fuck outta here.

"Here is the definition of Racism "prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior." SO...I take back my "of course" because as I thought about it..this definiton describes white people's racism...thinking they are superior...people of color are just pissed off...with damn good reasons

Fernie · F

Of course! The difference is that their racism is valid after the way whites have treated them and STILL treat them. White people are racist out of ignorance and a sense of superiority and being just plain stupid
