Black racism? Everybody knows that black racism is the fault of the South, The CCC, Jim Crow Laws and the Confederate flag.
v,
According to current academic attitudes, black Americans are actually incapable of racism.
There are prejudiced black people who have a chip on their shoulder. My mother meets them almost as much as I do, just because she has a foreign accent. Farrakhan's numbers are thinning so of course he's going to open up the field. This must have been a result of his appearance at the 'state of the black union' conference.
Disagree there. Racism is racism, whether people admit it or not. Anyone who wants to make excuses, e.g., Jim Crow, the Confed flag, can dredge up whatever he wants. However, with all the immigrants from E. Europe, India, Vietnam, Mexico, and Africa coming here in droves, the black/white issue is altogether passe, and is being used as a bludgeoning technique to squeeze out whatever advantages can accrue. Because the US Civil War ended now 140 years ago, it is time to move past; there are, after all, over 35,000 slaves in the US today, illegally. Furthermore, anyone who says illegal immigrants are not engaging in something not unlike slavery isn't getting the picture.
I for one am sick of an entrenched mindset that plays the race card way too early, when another explanation may do just as well, e.g., someone might just not treat anyone well, or be having a very bad day, etc.
Enough.
