My parents are real racist and call Jews and Blacks "Canadians". Why?

I am sure they are making racial comments. To be honest, they are that way they are because they never put them self in the other person’s shoe. Can you think of one thing a black race in this country did to you that make you say it was not worth getting their 400 years off free labor. Have you ever heard the saying "don't judge a man till you walk a mile in his shoe." Most blacks do not tip good because they do not have that much to spare. \n\nIf it makes you feel better, I am as black as it gets, and I usually tip between 30-40%; because I once worked as a waiter to put myself through school. \n\nIn now days am seeing more and more blacks in the professional work places and universities. That means there is a higher level of hope in the future; they will be able to tip well.

I knew some "white" people years ago who moved to Africa, for whatever reason..I didn't ask.  They took their "white American" children with them, and while they were there, children were born. Now, these "white" children are true Africans, being born there. If these children would then come to America, and have children, would these children born in America, then have to be called "African Americans?"  The whole thing is blown out of proportion, and we are all Americans, regardless of race, color, religion.. let's be proud of it and quit our nick picking. As long as we keep pushing ourselves away from others, we will be segragated.\n\nThe irony of the whole thing is, that true Americans are Canadians, Mexicans, and the people from the US, all from North America, and then we also have South America. All of them are Americans. Yet only the people from the US call themselves Americans. Canadians have the right to call themselves Canadian Americans, because they are. Same with the Mexicans, true Mexican Americans. And all of South America.\nPeople born in the US are just "American" unless you want to call them United States Americans.\nLet's just get off this whole name calling bit, and grow up. Until we do, there will be no peace amongst us.

Jews are hated for the actions of few bad Jews: read what this bad jew said:\n "Our race is the master race. We are divine gods on this planet. We are as different from the inferior races as they are from insects. In fact, compared to our race, other races are beasts and animals, cattle at best. Other races are considred as human excrement. Our destiny is to rule over the inferior races. Our earthly kingdom will be ruled by our leader with a rod of iron. The masses will lick our feet, and serve us as our slaves." \nMenachem Begin\n\nprime Minstar of Israel

I married a man of another race.  My family has been pretty accepting of him, thankfully.  But I have also seen a good friend of mine struggle with her dad for years to accept her boyfriend of another race, and he never did, and they eventually broke up.  Her dad was afraid of how other people would treat my friend and her boyfriend, and their children someday.  I think the generations before us have seen people do really mean things because of racism, and sometimes they are scared of that stuff happening to their kids.  You are in a tough place.  I hope your mom can get to know your boyfriend and see him for what you see in him.

I'm not Canadian and I don't think Canadians are any less prejudiced than any other group of people, but I don't think they are any more prejudiced either. \n\nUnfortunately, prejudice exists everywhere in the world. Unfortunately, this will likely always be the case.  Unfortunately, non-whites bear the most prejudice. I don't know why and I'm very sad about this because my child will not be white. However, the best thing is to be proud of who you are. No one else's opinion matters anyway, especially not the opinion of ignorant bigots.

Probably pretty immensely, and I must say, you have a good point. I don't understand why people are so touchy about their race. My grandfather was an Estonian (Teeny country on the Baltic) who immigrated to the US, and I don't get uptight when someone jokes about my heritage. But, if a person's grandfather was an African immigrant or Mexican immigrant, they'd be immensely offended if someone made jokes about their family's nation of origin. I don't think the minority argument stands, because even though I'm white, Estonians are certainly more of a minority than Mexicans or Africans.

If you live in a predominantly white neighborhood in America, then there is probably some racism going on. Don't worry about it's not your fault. Racism is taught by parents to children at any early age. Also, we learn it from others, the media and history. If you leave two children of different races to grow up in the same loving enviroment where racism is not taught then they will grow up loving each other without racism in their lives. And if you told them about racism they probably would not understand it unless you used an analogy or example of what racism might be to them. So try to put a quantative number on what you just read, then you will have gathered a statistic. You may find some statistics at the sources listed.

I don't think you should be PRO-JEW, because they are just like every other race. I can accept like me you are pro-people, individuals. No matter what Race they are from. The Israelis and by association the Jews in general want us all to succomb to their apparent hatred for anyone but another Jew. Time to call it as it is. They are acting in a way that is no different to when Hitler tried to wipe them off the face of the Earth. Murdering b*st**ds.

Because they themselves (whoever is a stereotyper or is just plain racist/pregidist) are ignorant. I would say this kind of thing should be punishable by law, but you really can't throw people in jail for their beliefs.\n\nMy Dad was like that. I hated everything about him. He was very ignorant, he acted like a Barbarian! He stomped around, couldn't even begin to think of how to spell the simplest of words, and shouted a lot. He threw temper tantrums whenever something didn't go his way. \n\nI started to learn that MOST people (I did say most- not all) people who were like this were ignorant. So all we can do is hope that some day someone/something will open their eyes and learn- we are all human- so why hate each other?

It's pretty sad but many people were raised that way. They were taught an early age to dislike other races because the parents felt that they were different or inferior, or whatever silly reson people have to hate races. Other people don't understand the lifestyles of other cultural groups, so they automatically think that group is the cause of a lot problems, and in turn have a vendetta against them. It all starts at home though. If there weren't so many ignorant parents teaching their kids to hate generation after generation then racism would decrease signifigantly.

Well I'll answer this as if it's a legitimate question.\nSounds like some kind of group/cult deal to me. Now if they had White HOODS and Gowns I would say you have the KKK in your  yard. Which means your dad's a racist. Especially the comment about you aint no foreigner so don't worry about it.\n\nCourse that's my take on this if this is an honest question from a child who's scared because of their fathers nocturnal activities.\n Only thing you can do is keep away from them and if something worse occurs than just the meetings report it if you dare to the police.\n\nStill could be just men jumping around being stupid for the heck of it or that your just bored and want to see what folks will say to your question *hehehe*.\n\nThanks for the points still.

Do you mean Hebrews or Israelites, Jews an a Israelites are different. A Jew is anyone who relgion is Judaism, it not a race but a religion. Jew is in the Bible but it's a mistranslation, everytime "Jew" is used in the Bible it should read Judah. Judah is one of the 12 tribes of Israel, so calling ALL Israelites Jews is incorrect. Moses was from the tribe Levi not Judah so that means that he wasn't a Jew, Abraham counldn't a descendant of his own great great grandson so he wasn't a Jew ethier. The name Jew should have never even appear in the English translation.\n\nToday many Jews are white, ask ANY Jew, what does it take to be a Jew. They will tell you to convert to Judaism or if your moms a Jew, then your Jewish.\n\nNONE of them will tell you that to be a Israelites you HAVE to be a decsendant of one of the 12 tribes of Jacob/Israel.\nNote all through out scripture the Bible says that genology is ONLY pass through the FATHER never the mom/wife.\n\nWith that been said Jews are not Israelites and Israelites are not Jews. \n\nTO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION: Todays most Jews are descendants of Ashkenaz and Khazar tribes Both are decsendants of Japhet, Genesis 10 1-5 with are European tribes, which is why todays Jews are white. Until when find some evidences of what Isrealites looked like and can proven they are Israelites, then we would know what color they are.
