How far do you think we have come with ridding our country of racism?

Would you marry a Chinese American man?

What's with Black Entertainment Television?

What's with Obama becoming the "first black president"?

Would your resturant be successful if you operated an Italian resturant?

Would you feel more comfortable in loaning $1000 cash to a stranger that is black person or a stranger that is Jewish person? Both making $15,000 per year.

If 6 mexican americans are walking behind you in a dark alley, would you be more scared if 6 black americans were?

If a black person was running for office, would you vote for him over a middle eastern person?

I think that we have come a long way from 1968, for example when Martin Luther King, Jr. Was assainated. In certain states, there was illegal segregation into the 1970's. Today, you can drink from any water fountain or go to any restaurant, and you don't have to sit in the back of the bus, thanks to the struggles of people in the past. Racism is still there, but people are not as open with it as they were previously. There are more interracial couples,and more people identifying themselves as biracial or other.

As long as there are idiots in the world, there will be racism. Unfortunately, the idiots don't show any sign of shifting anytime soon so everyone with half a brain is just gonna have to try their best to get by despite them.

Though to be fair, things have gotten better, so obviously somethings working :D

Anyone would have to admit it is much improved. There are alot more mixed couples, children etc. Alot of today I think has to do with stereotypes and unfortunately alot of people behaving just like that. As far as people hating just because of skin color is ridiculous. It should be about the behavior and actions of each person.

Not much since racism towards white people is coming to light more by the day.

Racism still alive they just be concealing it. But I know they dont want me in the damn club they even make me show i.d. to get inside of sam's club.

Pretty far.

But check out the Politics and Government section here on YA! and you'll see there is still racism here

A long time

heh i'd say that's a ways off yet then again i think folks expect big results too quickly

it will never happen
