Why Are Only Whites Considered Racist?


Question:
You call me "redneck" ,"hillbilly", "slaker" , "Cracker", "Honkey", "Whitey", "Gringo" and you think it's OK.

...But If Iwere to call you coon,jiggaboo, Kike, sand ******, rag head ,Towelhead, WOP, Camel Jockey, ****, ******, slant eyes or Chink you call me a racist.

-You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you, so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?

-You have the United Negro College Fund.

-You have Martin Luther King Day.

-You have Black History Month.

-You have Cesar Chavez Day.

-You have Yom Hashoah

-You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi

-You have the NAACP.

-If we had WET(white entertainment television) ...we'd be racist.

-If we had a White Pride Day... you would call us racist.

-If we had white history month... we'd be racist.

-If we had an organization for only whites to "advance" our lives... we'd be racist.

-If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships...you know we'd be racist.

-In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights...you would call us racist.

-Did you know that some high school students decided to make a club for only the white students because the other ethnicities had them... they all got sent to court for being racist but the african-american, Latino, and Asia clubs were not even questioned.

-You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists.



I am white.

I am proud.
But, you call me a racist.



Why is it that only whites can be racists?


Now watch, I'll be a racist for posting this

So what? no one will re post this for fear of being called racist



if you think its true re-post it saying "im not racist"

Answer:
I am not white but married to one. My daughter is half white and very pretty. I know what you mean and I fully understand your anguish. I totally agree with you. America is going crazy and I tell you its the Politician faults. They so hunger for power that they stoop so low to these minorities and give them more and more rights and so takes the whites rights away. Truthfully I will also admit its the minority race that are guilty of racism and prejudice. I am not part of that because I like to see and feel that everyone is equal. Someone do wrong to me, I see that person as an individual and not as a whole group. You are so right and we should all admit that. I am sorry that ethnics and Politicians are doing this to the White race. How can we correct a wrong that is going out of control? We have to make the Politicians see the damage that they are doing. I know things will get better, just have a little more patience and we have to work things out.
child, you have a lot to learn.
Only whites are racist? Says who?
- You're just plain ignorant
Frustration, and anger = counseling
Because it gives us a chance to lash out at you and blame you for all our problems.
A bigot can be any color. A racist can also be any color.
What a stupid, stupid, stupid question. You're racist only if you make racist comments. Get with the program.
not only white people are racist. noone says you can't be proud of what you are. i know i am. you can be whatever you want to, i couldn't care less.
Because that's how the blacks and mexicans/others get their handouts aka benefits. American society is becoming a joke to the rest of the world. No one kisses minority butts elsewhere like they do in Amerika. Sad indeed.
they invented it.

for the record:

NAACP was founded by white people
BET is currently owned by Viacom (white people)
MLK Day - was voted by a white congress and signed into law by your favorite white guy Ronald Reagan
thousands of other white people post these same questions, why don't you read the answers they got. it makes no sense to keep repeating the same thing over and over again. and im glad you are proud that you are white, you should be. just like everyone else should be proud of the color of their skin. you can't chose your color all you can do is embrace it and be happy, so good for you!
Lady you need councelling!! seriously!! Maybe if you guys had left us where we were in Africa and minded your damn business you wouldn't sit all alone on a cool spring day asking yourself such a foolish question. And I am certain the Iraquis would give you the same answer.
Not all whites is racist, not all colored is non-racist. It's not about the color of your skin, it's about how you treat other races.

For me, I will call those who looking down at other races, narrow minded person racist, not necessary white people.

You are not being a racist for posting this question, you are just somehow block your own mind. Take my advice, read more, see wider, think logically and love more people (no matter what color they are).
Hes not saying only whites are racist. hes saying that whites are the only ones that will get in deep trouble for saying "racist" comments. blacks, asians, spanish.. the can all be racist. But when they say stuff about white people its funny, people laugh. Everyone... and I mean EVERYONE has some racist thoughts. People need to stop being so offended by every little thing. People calling me a ***, homo, queer, cracker, honkey or whatever doesn't bother me, they are just words used by ignorant people
Uh... hello? Earth to ranting racist child... you are aware that if you want respect you should give it... treat others the way you want to be treated and you'll find the world a different place... oh, and by the way... we do celebrate two white president's birthdays in February so "Black History Month" is not entirely focused on blacks.
White People are the majority, why don't get together and make a White History Month or Wet?

To say people would call it racist is just an excuse so you complain more. Do say white organizations are racist because they don't want them to continue having them, or do they say that because every white organization IS racist? (KKK, Neo Nazi)

Don't you think if the government thought whites needed an equivalent of an NAACP, you would have had one before the NAACP existed?
I will try and inform you as truthfully and as calmly as I can because the way you asked this question you seem to want to spark some contreversy...

Weather you are or not you sound like a Racist, noone ever said only Whites are racist although it is a more common trend among whites to be racist vs. blacks<<<<thats a statistic not a thought. The past does hold a great influence on blacks reaction to racism today you cant leave the past behind for its still aprt of us all even though we choose to run from and try to hide it as it never happened, I dont know if anything traumatic has ever happened to you in your lifetime but if it has you know that it leaves a mental scar and until it heals your still affected by it, and Yes African Americans are still scarred by the affects of slavery. White people cant comprehend the pain inflicted upon blacks so please dont try to understand for you will never know. Now moving on to Minorities and Majorities, Whites are the Majority in this country, So your actions and what you say are watched closer, why you ask, because what you say and do is more influential because of the number of people you may influence all these words you throw around so freely make you seem like a member of a certain organization, Mam theres a FINE LINE between Respect and Pride, when your pride crosses the line of respect, thereof disrespecting someone else could make you a Racist not just White People. Not only whites are racist but they are critisized a little more because of the past and the mass of the Whaite race in America. Be wise and Let Racism go, Im sorry its over
this is what we call political correct. and when you make sense or go above someones IQ level they are quick to call you stupid
remember you are on yahoo where it's ok to bash the white from the safety of your home
Not only white people can be racist. I've seen racist black people, racist asians, racist hispanics- you name it.

However, one thing you fail to realize in your examples is context. We have Black History Month because for the most part the place in history for black people has been cast aside- white people have been taught of white achievements for a long time. United Negro College Fund was established to balance the scales a bit- black people have had a tougher time getting into college than white people. And a channel like BET exists because most other television caters to predominantly white programming. There's a BET because almost all other channels are 90% WET.

What rights are white people being denied exactly?

People have "Black Pride," "Asian Pride," etc. only because for years being nonwhite was considered inferior. It's a reaction to the idea that we should be ashamed of our background because it's different. There's no similar analog to be applied to white heritage.
I think everybody is a racist. It's just nature for human to be a racist just like other things in this earth they want to get together with their kind, see, if you go to a place and look around you'll see a certain type of stones grouped together, certain type of animals grouped together, certain plants also grouped together. I have never seen a mixed of white and black sands on the beach, have you?

So, certain human naturally will grouped and feel comfortable around their kind. It's natural and nothing wrrong with that.

Now, when it comes to racist behaviour, especially in America, everyone is the same!

White is a mjority in the US, this mean contact with whites in anyone's daily life is certainly more often so the chance of getting hurt/dissappointed by white are bigger. So, it is natural when those got hurt feel the hatred then reveal his/her feeling in such a way. This is wrong but we are just human.

The most important is for us to learn how to respect others regardles of their skin color. I need to learn how to talk to you in a respective way even if yesterday a white person had just insulted me. You, as white, need to do the same thing and that should be more than enough. I don't have to marry a white girl to show I'm not racist. You don't have to marry a black guy/girl to show you are not racist.

As far as your question about whites have their own club or just white organization, indeed it will be prone for racist remark because white is the majority in the US. It is natural for the smaller population to seek for their kind, just like the stones, plants, sands, etc. While for white, you don't have to go anywhere to see your kind. Even the president is from your kind, what more can a white people want?
