RACIST AGAINST US, THE WHITES? hahahhahahahahaha......i dont think so buddy...Racism is everywhere....after reading your question and analysing the answerer response, i find this millenium still having the same problem of racism just like before even though education level has risen up greatly...i guess it has nothing to do with education afterall, i strongly believe tht it all depends on situation, circumstances and society....how is the person raised.....and how you interpretate the world.....\n\nDont be a fanatic, fanatic people created racism and hatred throughout history...we all shld be broad minded and analyse the person who is being racist, maybe they are like tht bcs of a reason....or simply bcs they 'fear'....they have fear and dont accept change....\n\nBut again, let me remind you, we white people havent seen anything about racism...you wanna see racism, be Asian or Black...every single day you will be discrimanated and laughed at....i have seen it wth my very own eyes, and i have cried along wth them.....you havent seen anything buddy.\n\nYou are talking about becoming extinc and our nation being flood at, wht about the native red indians? we slaughtered them like animals making them almost extinc...we did tht so one day the wont step up and ask their nation back....this is the land of the free now, every single race has the same right as long as they become AMERICAN...whether you are black or white or brown or yellow...we are all equal...\nIf you are talking about The Great Britain, they are Great bcs they stole everything from the countries they conquered in the past....not great afterall aight, if their nation is being flooded then its either karma or the price they have to pay for past crimes...\n\nDont say tht they are flooding our nation, the nation is not even ours, now it belongs to everyone...we together helped it build together....

"especially white" so you are more tolerant of racism coming from other races? Sounds racist to me.

You shouldn't assume that all white people are racist.  Making assumptions and accusations about people based on the color of their skin is racist in itself.

Racism comes in stages and degrees.\nMost of it is due to lack of confidence in ones self and inferiority complexes.\nHowever, it could also be because of trying to brainswahs a section of the people by regular campaigning against a particular group or groups.\nNone of these eventuallysucceed.\nSouth Africa , Rhodesia (Zimbabwe) are good examples.\nThe best example is the United states.\nAll racial barriers have been legally broken but the trend is still there.

Because whites used it as hate during slavery and segregation in the 1960's and probably some still do. Did you see the movie Malcom X he said he was call Nigger so much he swear it was his name. The word was use in our generation and not looong ago. So any whites who use it would be seen as racist because it was why they used the word, to insult them. For white to use it also will mean it okay to call someone offensive names.

That is a good question.  Most of you are looking at it wrong.  Yes there are racist people all over.  He just asked about one group of people, white people.  In your opinion why are white people so racist?  In my opinion most of the racist white people I have met are that way because of history.  History teaches us that the white man or Caucasian or what ever they want to be called accomplished everything.  Even to the discover of America, but how can you discover something that was not lost.  The Indians where there to greet them.  If society stop asking about a person race it would be a step toward stopping racism.  What does the color of my skin have to do with the knowledge I have.  I don't like being called an African American, because what do you call a white person from Africa, they are African descent but now lives in America.

NOPE, \nWHITE PEOPLE I GUESS DESERVE EVERYTHING THEY HAVE COMING TO THEM.\nIT'S NEVER RACIST WHEN WHITE PEOPLE ARE VICTIMIZED BY MINORITIES AND IMMIGRANTS IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY, BECAUSE IT'S IMPOSSIBLE FOR WHITES TO GET VICTIM STATUS ACCORDING TO THE CHURCH OF POLITICAL CORRECTNESS.\nEVEN IF WHITES BECOME THE MINORITY AND ARE A CONSTANT TARGET OF ABUSE AND ATTACKS, THE CHURCH OF POLITICAL CORRECTNESS WILL SECRETLY BE PLEASED ABOUT IT.\n\nIF YOU ARE WHITE AND CHRISTIAN IN ORIGIN YOU ARE TO HANG YOUR HEAD IN SHAME AND CONSTANTLY APOLOGIZE FOR THINGS WHICH AREN'T EVEN YOUR FAULT AND ACCEPT YOUR GUILT AND PERPETRATOR STATUS, WHEN YOU ARE VICTIMIZED, YOU ARE TO SAY TO YOURSELF "I DESERVE IT BECAUSE OF WHAT OTHER PEOPLE DID CENTURIES AGO AND FOR WHAT OTHER WHITE PEOPLE DO IN OTHER COUNTRIES".\n\nTHIS IS WHY PC MINDSET IS TREASONOUS, THEY ARE SELF-LOATHING AND WOULD SEEK TO HAVE THEIR OWN PEOPLE, THEIR CULTURE AND THEIR TRADITIONS AND CORE WESTERN VALUES DESTROYED,\nEVEN IF THEY WERE REPLACED WITH EXTREMIST ISLAM WHICH WOULD OPPRESS THEM WORSE, THEY WOULD PREFER IT.\nTHEY ARE TRAITORS.

there are so few racists(I'm assuming you mean white)that if people like you would stop looking for them and attributing to them racist remarks then you wouldn't ask.\nthe new racists are the minorities.

My dear Jeff, it seems that your point has been sorely missed by most people. I am guessing that you don't particularly want to chat with "whites only" but are merely asking that if other cultures are catered for then why not white americans? After all they are people too? \nAs soon as you mention anything like this, even if it's just to make a point then 99% of people will brand you a racist or nazi before even thinking of the question properly. \nI personally would have no interest in such a chat room, but will defend peoples right to have it - as other cultures have theirs. \nDo people really think that in say, a black american chat room, people use it to constantly berate non-black cultures? No, this is preposterous, as it would make black people generically racist!!.\nI live in Great Britain and have increaingly strong veiws on this subject. British people are increasingly being told not to celebrate their culture (in some places you cannot even fly the English flag - seriously!). British people do not want race hate, just to be able to show pride in who they are and their heritage. \nGovernments and corporations are so scared of insulting anyone these days we are all becoming transparent, unless you belong to a minority.\nThere is only a Human Race is an absolute shortcut to thinking, the world is vast with thousands of cultures and intricacies, if there was just one single human persona it would be a bit boring wouldn't it?\nAll we want Jeff is the right to be who we are without stupid, shortsighted and bloody insulting comments about racism.

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.

It gives people power or feel like they have power over someone else.  Most people at one time or another wish they could be better than others, and for some people, this is all they can find to pick out that is obvious.\n\nMostly though, I think many of those who are racists are so because one of their parents is racist.  If this wasn't the case, I doubt many people would be racist.

Because they can get away with it. Not all back people are racist. I have black friends and they're not. But this site is a prime example, You make a valid point and a load of brainless so called do gooders get on your case and start abusing you. And you'll notice they are all white, the black and coloured people who've answered you have mostly given you a constructive answer. The ones who haven't are the true racists because they are wrapping people in cotton wool just because they're a different colour, and not treating them as equal human beings. And the black people who have given you a stupid answer, like the ones who call you racist, are a result of living in this so called PC society. It like there are saying "hang on, you can't called a wrong doer if he's black, it's just not done"

White people today cannot say That they are proud to be white because they would be classified as being racist. I hear so many black people saying black power this and black power that and thats fine because over 100 years ago they were slaves but hello this is America and people should have the same right as everyone and to feel safe about saying what they want to say but white people are afraid to say white power without being called racist also. I think that the way Black people were treated when they were slaves was wrong there is no question about that. I just don't see why us white people today should be punished for it. I also don't see why there is a Black College Fund and Not a White College fund or a Hispanic college fund or an Asian College fund and the same thing about Black history month why isn't there a history month for all the races? Don't you think that ain't fair? You people who answered this question are ignorant for automatically calling this person racist for speaking her mind. I think you consider it racist because WHITE POWER AND WHITE PRIDE isn't said much. I hope I helped!

Because the don't have a clue how to be diplomatic with regards to race, religion on creed. \n\nThere is more chance of a white person being arrested for racial abuse than a coloured person.  It's not just white who are racists, but you would think they are.\n\nThey bring in Terrorism laws (I have no problems with this), but they make the Muslim Communities in the UK feel insecure.\n\nThey have not asked the Americans to hand over the soldiers  who killed our soldiers in "Friendly Fire", but they quickly handed over business men who were / or were not responsible for a multi billion Dollar ENRON empire to collapse.\n\nThe Labour Government has undermined everything that is held dear by the British that we have the right to the Freedom of Speech and Movement anywhere in the country. \n\nYou are now guilty until proven innocent ALA USA instead of innocent until proven guilty.

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.

No, racism involves believing that you are superior to another race and also inflicting some form of harm (whether) verbal or physical onto someone else because of their race.\n\nThere are, unfortunately enough of those types around.  You are not racist.
