Every job that i have been on there is always this but kissing white woman or man that think they are entitled to know why you are doing this or that and they usually hold the same position as you or have a lower position. I just think that they always have to feel like they are superior and have to know everything under any circumstance. I notice that whites tend to be the best but kissers and are always looking for brownie points from the boss man.

I have many friends from many different cultures but I was raised with very prejudiced family members. I have tried not to follow in their footsteps but sometimes I find myself thinking or saying prejudiced terms. I have talked to one of my best friends, who is black, and she says that she doesnt think that I am racist because I dont treat her badly but she does think that when I see black people who fit into the "poor black" stereotypes that I think racist things. I have never realized it until she said it but sometimes I do. Like if I see a black guy walking around with a rag on his head or in his pocket I automatically get scared. Am I racist?

A group of Arabian men were removed from an airplane because a passenger heard them speaking Arabic and became concerned.

The other passengers were given an hotel room while these men were kept in an interrogation room.

It ended up that these men actually worked for the US government and trains American Soldiers about Saudi customs, beliefs, etc.

Racism or Needed Customs?

maybe marriage would not be so bad after all if one could have as many wifes as one chose. that goes for the ladies too vice-versa. I could have one wife for her looks. one for her body. one for her cooking. one for her brains. one to take enjoy a good football game on t.v. one to clean the house. etc. etc. wow I went too far huh? ladies what would you do with so many husbands?

I go to a top art college in nyc, i made some good friends, they all come from upper middle class backgrounds. One friend has an apartment in the city her parents pay for, i went to her parents home in upstate NY , they have a boat, nice 3 story house, cars, nice decor, etc.. all my friends are like this now..

Im really ashamed to invite them to where i live, but i know their prob wondering why i havent. I live in a poor area, in a rent controlled walk up, people blast music all night, play dominos in the street, have housing projects, thugs, etc. I have baby furniture still in my room, my mom is too poor to buy anything else.
i am white btw.
I just cant bear to invite them. I feel they will think less of me, be turned off, make fun of me, feel bad for me, etc
i told one girl i live with my Mom so you dont want to come over its boring...
I invited my ex over who came from a nice area, he was shocked, he told me he cant beleive someone like me lives in an area like this.

Why is the United States still accepting toys and contaminated foods from China after all the recalls, and sickness that is going on? I know that the labor is cheaper for them coming from China, but they have lots of companies here in the U.S that make toys and other products just as good as China

Im so sick of black gansters calling each other that, shouldn't they be offended by that word?? i swear, if Martin Luther King was still alive, he'd be SO MAD. a black once said "we turned that word into something positive". WHAT IS SO POSITIVE ABOUT IT??? That word was called by their ancetors as slaves, a word so hurtful for them, do u think they are making their ancestors proud using that word to greet each other everyday or putting it into a rap song?? i didin't think so. can YOU tell me why they are still using that word?

I am a black woman married to a white man. I can count on one hand the number of couples I have seen in which the woman is black and the man is white.

So I am curious on how many people on yahoo answers are in a black woman/white male relationship.

Plus, are there any groups that cater to the black woman/white male relationships.

I showed a friend at work the below Yahoo Answers question and her take on it wsa that white people have historically acted better than other people and she wished she wasn't white. She also said she wished she was "her own race". I disagreed and reminded her that throughout history nation has fought against nation and peoples of all races have been discriminated against because of differences, I gave the example of "Irish need not apply". But her reasoning seemed to be that since white Americans were the "last people" to exhibit that behavior, then we are most guilty of it. This person is only 26 years old, is white with a northern European ancestry. Is she exibiting "White Guilt"? And, if so, how can I help my friend get over it?

seeing how Hilary is gonna win for the Democrats and seeing how from previous elections, majority of people (red states) are still "conservative" in the USA (so no female presidents) that I have a strong undesirable feeling that the Republicans will win the next presidential race. that would mean America is going into another unfortunate economic depression.

with so many red staters, does that mean America is continuously going to be a land of racist bigotry, seeing how there's no future opportunity to change?

then again, nowadays, democrats and republicans are the same in America. so USA is pretty much a one party dictatorship.

He claims that he uses the N word on a regular basis and ranted to his son because he is dating a black girl. Yet of course after the media gets a hold of this tape he claims he isn't a racist. Okay, so he uses the N-word all of the time and if you hear this tape you'll understand how much hatred is in his voice. Why do people like him and Mike Richards claim they aren't racist after they have these tirades making it obvious? Are they that thick?
