Let me be honest with you... I was a racist girl before and I'm not afraid to admit that, I thought black guys are bad in every way, I hated them very much, I couldn't even watch them on tv. It was a strong feeling deep inside my heart, I said I will never have a black boy as a friend and I will never date one. I don't know what was wrong with me but in my mind they were associated with evil.
I changed my mind when I started talking with a guy on the internet, he has very cute, he started writing poetry for me, he seemed like a perfect guy, he understood everything about me. I didn't knew he is black (actually he is mulatto) so I was shocked.... But after looking at him and thinking about all the nice things he said I realised how stupid I was being a racist. Now I even dream of marrying him, I love him and I want to be in his arms all the time.

I try not to generalize about people's race, putting everyone from a country in the same basket or anything like, but I have to admit that sometimes, I have problems trusting certain people more than others, based on their background (i wont name them)... I think that often, out of repetitive hurt from a certain type of people (from certain country or races) scares us and racism (hatred against certain race) expresses our wounds... that's my case. After knowing 4-5 people of the same country, and all 4-5 hurt you, you'd wanna close your door on them. And truth is, different countries mean different cultures, different mentalities, different values.
But I think a lot of time, people might not have any valid reasons though. Some other reasons I've seen: fear of the unknown, complex of inferiority, complex of superiority... The media doesn't help either, seldom showing white as evil... They're usually the ones producing those movies anyway, right? Anyway... I'm sorry you have to go through that. I'm Asian and sometimes do feel the racism as well.

Go back where you came from is intended for illegals only. they need to go back and then apply and enter this country leagally. thats all. if all the legal immigrants that are here now can do it, so can the rest. You are an American. You did not immigrate. You belong here no matter what. If you want to leave that is your choice. Skin color means nothing at all to me. No one is any better than the other especially because of color. All the racists need to find their own little island somewhere far away. Keep strong and stay proud to be American.

You sound real intelligent let me start off by saying that. Racism is a very common thing and it doesn't help the situation by being condescending. I am not racist by any means but it really isn't helpful when people talk down on people when they make different choices. Just be appreciative about your race/races and just move along. No one is worth your time, if they aren't supportive of your cultures. Just be happy all in yourself dollface.

I would like to pose you a question in return. you say why say go back to africa since the majority have never been there.. then why do we now refer to to what used to be called blacks or whatever term you wish touse, we now refer to them as "african americans", even though none of them have ever been? i have a friend who always talked about the african warrior in him, but when they traced his family tree it turned out his relatives were from jamaica.. but him and his family still call themselves african americans..

They are looking for attention and pissed that their parents had the same last name their entire lives.
and because people who are looking for a sub-culture to conform to they see red neck and since the steriotypical redneck is racist they think they are too.
and going back to where you came from...they are just noobs and should go back to europe.
