    As an Asian, I KNOW that black people are THE most racist people in the USA. EVERY time I've experienced racism since arriving here, it was perpetrated by a black person without exception. Not one time did a white person ever do that.

    Give up your own racism and victim mentality and you will have an easier time.

    King James Version Bible

    Romans Chapter 1

    28. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

    29. Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

    30. Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

    31. Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

    32. Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

    We aren’t racist because of skin color I have a lot of black friends who agree with me. It is the victim mentality that a lot of black people use when they blame their quality of life and oppression on slavery and white privilege and white supremacy instead of taking personal responsibility that some of your choices are the reason. Everyone has the free will to make responsible choices like stay in school don’t get addicted to drugs don’t have children out of wedlock and that you can’t afford to pay for. Most recently the insistence that confederate statues and flag need to e removed from public and private property. These have been around for 100 yrs and there has been a black president black men and women in all government positions doctors and lawyers actors and actresses in spite of flags and statues. We would like for black people to acknowledge that all people have a right to like or dislike whoever they want and disagreeing is not violence  and hate speech that only putting one’s hands on person or property is violence. You can prosper and I pray that all Americans see their worth and succeed no matter where you live and your financial situation ❤️❤️🇱🇷🇱🇷

    Racism is a hangover from the very earliest days of humankind, when if your tribe came across a stranger who didn't look like any of you, your first instinct was suspicion. Your tribe might live for years without ever encountering someone who was NOT a member of your tribe, so it was natural to be suspicious of them.

    Where there's suspicion, there's also fear. WHY are these people not the same as me? Our tribe is (of course) Good; so anyone who's Not Us must be Not Good. Kill them!

    That's putting it at its most primitive. Over thousands and thousands of years we've gradually learned that not every stranger is a direct danger. But that underlying suspicion still lurks.

    Please be aware that ANY people may be racist towards any OTHER people. White on black is very far from being the only kind of racism. Think of any colour, and that colour can be racist towards any other colour. People of every colour have been slaves and have been slave-masters all through history.

    But before you start wading in with how horrible and appalling the slave trade was (and is), please do everyone a favour, including yourself, and look back 100 years. Yes, there are still grave injustices and a lot of irrational fear, but when you consider how we've all moved on in terms of equal rights before the law, there is a great deal to be pleased with.Things ARE progressing: people ARE much more aware of the evils of racism. Please keep that in mind.

    ORIGIN of RACISM   ETHNICITY  becomes more confusing in the process of immigration and assimilation

    Racism  occurs when one ETHNIC group historically  COLLECTIVELY DOMINATES , and EXCLUDES or seeks  to ELIMINATE another on the  basis of DIFFERENCES that it BELIEVES are hereditary and unalterable .

    Has nothing to do with your skin colour or your facial features it’s your ignorance and your attitude. Black people have such a victim mentality and they also talk to eachother about working harder and better than any other race. Why better ? Why can’t you just work hard but not try to be better than others. Black people keep thinking they are oppressed when they are so ignorant to see that as a society equality as came along way. But they want more and more and now they want reparations for slavery like free hand outs all the time. They have a hard time getting over things and think everything is racially motivated and it gets annoying. Most black people just have a very ignorant attitude towards whites and are more racist towards them. The men are always desperate for sex from white women and in general are known to be the worst type of men to date because of how they treat women. Than you make a blm activist group and it really feels like you are just protesting because you don’t want black people to get killed and want law enforcement to put these black people on pedestals and get away with criminal activity when I do my research on this so many of these incidents weren’t even race related. Either they resisted arrest or did try to run from police. I’m not saying how the cop handled things was always right but not everything is to target black people. All people of colour keep thinking white privilege exists and white people trying to keep them down. It’s really annoying. How about you guys teach eachother to comply with the law and how to treat eachother better and that white privilege doesn’t exist. Just face reality you didn’t get the job for other reasons
