Only Whites Can Be Racist

Name: Anonymous 2006-09-12 21:25

I know it's hard to hear, but it's true.  When a black person calls a white person "cracker" or "honky" it isn't racist.  But when a white person calls a black person "nigger" it is.  This is because white people hold institutionalized power that has come from centuries of subjugating non-whites to their will.  Society, from the bottom up, is built with an inherent advantage to whites.  This gives them preference in everything from school, jobs, and government influence.  That is why affimative action is not "reverse" discrimination, it is only trying to balance out the inherent racism that exists in society.  The only people that talk about a "color blind" society being a good thing are whites, because they are the ones that will benefit most. 

It would do the white people here some good to educate themselves on their privilege:

Society can only grow when whites finally accept their inherent racism.

So how do you tell how much priviledge someone has had in their life? Do you look at a black guy in a suit and think "the only way he could have got there was through drug trafficcing", then look at a white guy in a suit and think "he was spoon fed all his life by his rich father"? Why do you believe it is logical to judge someone by their race?
