I am learning not to be racist but still love the thought of being a black woman. It is hard. Although my mother believe in loving everyone. I was brought up to believe that white people were devils. could not be trusted, and looking for any and all reason to hold a black person back from thier goals. This ideas was passed along through my father. I have a teenage child, and I do not want his to grow up with these views. I am a racist, slowly being reformed to a proud black woman. Keep your fingers crossed. I have just got to the point that I would allow a white person to touch me. Do not pounce on me, I am really making efforts to change, but change does not come easy.

well I'm Hispanic and I was born here, and this is the only country I've ever been in. yet, people from other countries see me as  American and people who are from here see me as a wetback(Person that crosses the border). I don't think Caucasians are racist in general but they are some, just like there are racist from other ethnics. My personal opinion is that everyone stereotypes and labels people from their race, sex, or background, whether we think we do or don't, because that what we are taught to do.

no not racist just personal preferences\npeople date who makes them feel comfy and happy\nif the curiosity is not their or opportunity to date outside race and a person prefers their race that is not racist\nto think the other races are beneath you or you are full of hate and that is why you would not interracially date that is racist but to just prefer to date your own race is not\ninterracial relationships require extra energy and tolerance alot of people do not have energy for

Yes, everybody can be (and IS to some small degree) a racist.  Not just white people.  Where did you get that idea?\n\nWhen I was living and traveling in Thailand I was occasionally harassed by Thai men and women who were extremely bigoted against me because I was white.  This is an example to show you that yes, everyone can be a racist.

Shepard in the Land Of Sheep hit it right on the nose!\n\nI am racist because that is what fools lable me for be honest to tthat which I see.\n\nFor instance : If I say black people are loud and obnoxious while their walking by being loud and obnoxious, the person next to me would call me racist for the truht I spoke even though he hears  and sees the same thing I do.\n\nCalling someone racist is a trained response to silence someone from speaking the truth about a certain race or ethnicity. Calling someone racist does not make them a racist by definition but it does make them guilty of being truthful in the verbal or visual ( by what they see) sense.\n\nRacist is an old worn out word that has no more meaning or teeth considering  it only  lables someone for  speaking a percieved truth. In fact , calling someone racist would often today mean in a sense you are calling them a truthest whom has no fear of speaking that truth.\n\nBeing a racist is most often being closer to the truth than those who try to diguise it by being appeasers. \n\nBut the definition does not fit the word because it makes one believe that one is racist because he believes his race is superior to another.  Fact is that is not true. Most often people whom have been labled racist are often teling the truth. The word is desgned only to silence that person from speaking the truth. \n\nFact is , blacks are more racist than any group of people but that lable is  almost taboo to try and attach to a black person because of false diverstity and appeasement expected unto them .\n\nAnyone who says they are not racist or have never been racist is a liar. Fact is anyone who will not admit that blacks are most racist people on earth is a liar!\n\nWe are all racist. some of us are honest enough to admit it and hold no shame of the lable because it bares us as truthest who will not lie to ourselves or others out of trained appeasement and and fraudulent diversity . There is no such thing as diversity . As a white you are expected to be diverse to all other groups while yu are also expected to forget your own heritage and pride in order to bolster theirs. Diveristy is as fraudulent the alledged Civil Rights Movement. To admit the Civil Rights Movemnet is a failure would be to destroy your pretty little lables of white people and make them the word of truth and destroy the meaning of racist , diverstity and any of the anti's people love to lable whites with.\n\nTo hell with diveristy! being called a racist is confirming  your honesty and should be worn as a badge of honor that you speak the truth. To be diverse is to be controlled and phony, and untruthful to ones self and reality of perception of what one sees as truth.\n\nWE all hate something or some race, anyone who says they do not is a liar of the highest degrees. I love the racist who talk about other races and when in their company suck up and demean other people who are racist in front of them. They are the greatest of the hypocrits adn the greatest of the liars!\n\nQuit searching for answers. Deep in your soul you know who the real racist are so quit lying to yourself and others. The real racist are those who are first to lable you racist because they wish to shut you up about telling the truth about their race or another race they have been trained to protect  from the truth.\n\nBeing a called a racist means someone is trying to protect that race from the truth. That is lying and all liars go to hell. Be truthful, that is not racist. That is the only way you can help another race. By covering for them with stupid words to guard them against the truth , you are hurting them as a race and giving them the excuse to live the lie and to go on doing the racist things they do while calling others racist.\n\nRoyal" You are wrong that color comes from "UV" if that were the fact then all babies would be born "white" thereby letting the "UV" change them to their known race today.

Well, I am neither bi-racial or multiracial, but I notice being white I still face discrimination sometimes.  Some people automatically assume I am racist, even though I am so far from it.  For example, the other day at work a Hispanic couple (their race doesn't matter to me, but it illustrates the point) came up to pay for their dinner with a credit card.  Our policy is that we ask everyone for I.D. when they are paying with a card.  It's for their protection, but also because we have seen cases of fraud.  Anyhow, he seemed a little irritated, but he showed me, finished the bill and left.  About 20 minutes later his wife called and spoke to my manager and said that I was being racist asking for I.D. because they were Hispanic.  My manager explained that asking for I.D. is a company policy and that I was only doing what I was told.  She told them next time they came in that they would receive a free dinner.  However, when she hung up, she came and told me she had watched me when they were paying and that I had done absolutely nothing wrong, and that if those people ever came in again to let her know so that she would ask them to leave.  It kinda bothered me because I know I am not racist in the slightest, but I just laughed it off because I knew it was their ignorance and not mine.  Gosh, sorry for making this so long.

I think everyone is racist to some degree. If they say they aren't they are hiding behind political correctness.\n\nI live in London and there is more diversity here than anywhere else I've been to. Because of the mix and the crowds, you tend to put up barriers of some sort. And if people piss you off in any way, you tend to blame it on something, and unfortunately the easiest one is race.\n\nHaving said that, I know it is easy to overgeneralise and once you get to know people on an individual level, I'll treat them as an individual.

Racism still exists in many parts of the world.\n\nIt's not right and it's not nice...but it's a fact.\n\nIgnore the minority of ppl who still are biggots.

I think anytime you are singling out a persons skin color it is racist.  Everyone is human, we all have red blood, and and a beating heart.

White people seem to be the most racist to me as well.  And I think it is like the gentleman said earlier about them holding power for so long.  And in the US, we as citizens really only see whites.  I mean, they are the majority.  I don't think whites are the ONLY racists.  But it does seem like more of them are racist than other races.  I know asians, blacks, etc are also racist and I have seen that, too.  But they are also a minority in my world.  Racism is just ignorance.  Will it change?  Slowly it will.

I have no problem that you're racist. That is your own decision and beliefs. I am not going to judge you for that.

These idiots answering think that you are racist?   it find it quote refreshing to see anyone of any color setting their boundaries - and not letting others do it for them....\n\nI am black and these people do not know where the line of racism is drawn.   Civil rights were based on equal opportunity - not the right to use "bigotry" or "racism" as a tool to force people to make personal choices in marriage, dating, etc.  That is overstepping the boundaries of the idea of stopping racism.\n\nI find this deplorable, the answers "conditioned" and those who use answers like this regardless of color not having the ability to think freely. \n\nI am black and I feel the same way.   I have and always stay with my race.   I am married to a beautiful woman and have three small girls.  (All BLACK) if they were to come home and bring any other race, I will go through the roof.  There are enough black men out there and they can choose from them.

simply and plainly, they are racists...but that should not bother you so much....just ignore them because they also have faults and imperfections of their own.....I am Mexican and a U.S citizen, but my family and I still know people that hates us too, but we just ignore them and go on with out lives.

well racist is racist, but there are certain degrees and differences between racist ppl. i mean u got nazis, rednecks and u got small 11 year old who lives in the burbs and watches rap videos and thinks black ppl are gangsters.\n\nsome people are either mature enough or arent THAT racist enough so that thier prejudices dont get in their way.\n\nthis is a tricky open ended question with no simple yes or no answer, at least in my opinion.
