That’s exactly what I was taught in college. In order to be racist, you must possess power.
Yep. That's the lie. I challenge that as utter hypocrisy. If blacks are indeed powerless, then how is it that they get to define what is racist? That in some senses is the ultimate power: the right to frame the debate, and to establish rules under which your opponent can't win.
So I demand that either blacks give up their claims of powerlessness or they cede the right to define "racism." They can't have both.
