It comes down to one thing
EDUCATION
Why are white people still running most things? Because the majority of people with college degrees are white and until that changes nothing else will.
You keep yourself down, not me.

As a "white folk" I don't feel I am more superior to anyone.
You asking this question is like some white person asking why all black people have to hold up banks and liquor stores. It's just not statistically true. There are just as many white people that rob banks and liquor stores as there are black people, and asian and mexican and >.....the list goes on.
To generalize and ask why "white folk" think they are superior, is racist. Not all white people are racist either. Another stereotype there.
I'm sorry you feel you had to ask this question. I don't know what purpose it will serve, other than receive a bunch of replies from people who are going to say mean things because they can. Doesn't make it right, but they will do it. You have opened up a can of worms for a racial internet war that doesn't need to exist.
Instead of asking a more mature question like "do all white people dislike blacks and why?" or "how can i help eliminate foolish stereotypes associated with my skin color?" We don't need more hatred in the world, we need to find a better solution to hate crimes and people who attack other's simply for being "different". etc.....
Alot of people ask "how can i make the world a better place?" Well, here's an answer, stop asking questions like the one you just asked and concentrate more on the real issues at home.
I hope you find some peace in your heart someday and realize that not ALL white people feel superior to or are working against the black man(or woman). Most of us want the same things as you do, cheaper gas, less poverty and more jobs, world peace, end to hunger and a safe school to send our children to. What's so superior about that?

Lady you make me laugh. We teach others how they treat us. Seems to me like you may not have been educated much.Definitely you don't have any white friends.Tell you what your mama has already told you many times, treat others as you wanna be treated as, so by belittling an entire race with this question you are just showing more ignorance. Sports I might give you , but social skills and sex???
When was the last time you received a decent oral job from a black man? What's that? Never! Just as I suspected. You want us to respect you more , stop calling each other the N word or learn to except the fact that people will call you that behind your back!

I grew up in a VERY racial household. I heard the N word daily, if not hourly or by the minute. It drove me nuts to hear it so often. I also heard rude comments about Asians, Japanese, Chinese, Mexicans, etc. The worst comments came from my own grandparents. I have friends of ALL nationalities. I don't care if they're black, white, pink, purple, green, brown or any other color. They're a person beyond that skin color & nationality.
In my opinion, there are white trash, black trash, brown trash & others. NO race is superior over another. I don't care if the Japanese outdo us in electronics. I don't care if the Mexicans run our healthcare system, etc. All I care about is everyone getting along. It doesn't happen though as the racial inequality seems to be getting worse not better over time.

Only the ignorent white people think they are. The other one see everyone a equal. Its frickin 2006 for god sake.
P.S. that question is pritty ignorent in its self b/c your saying that all white folks think that way and by the way the mvps for basketball was white (Steve nash) for the past 2 years, Baseball last year was Deminocan (a-rod), Football last year was black (shaun alexander) those are the 3 major sports and it seems to be pritty even in the sports aspect.

Some don't. I hate the way people are stereotyped. The ones who do ought to have there a** kicked. Like the way SOME black people still hold a grudge makes me mad I can't stand teh whole "30 acres and a mule thing." My Great great grandmother was black (and I appear totally white) does that mean I am entitled to "half an acre and a duck"? I understand that thihs stuff makes people mad, it makes me mad to think about how stupid people could be, but things are different now and we can only hope we have all learned from past mistakes.

I think you are very rude, and I don't think your social skills have developed very well. If you want respect, show others respect. Trying to stir things up on a site that people go to for the purpose of killing time and relaxing is uncalled for. If you have an issue with "us white folk", take it up with us in person. Don't hide behind a computer screen. You might think your all that, but I can roll just as hard as you can. Bring it on, my black friend.

And why do some blacks think that all white people owe them for the attrocities (sic) brought upon their race in previous generations/years despite the fact we had nothing to do with what our ancestors did or believed?
You wanna stereo-type, I can do it, too.
Oh, by the way, I'm a white female married to a black man. No one's superior to anyone else...we're all equal. Or should be.

Not all white people think that. But if some do, I don't think the reason they feel superior to you is because you do things better. That makes no sense. And do you do things better? Sports....possibly.
Sex....I doubt it. Social skills....doubt that too.
It's more likely that those whites who do feel superior, feel that way because of the disproportionate number of minorities who collect welfare, are in gangs or in jail.

It's that kind of attitude that keeps the racial thing going. So many of us no longer look at the colors....why do you have such a grudge? Nobody is better than anybody else. Some people do some things better than others, but that's an individual thing. Not a color thing.

I dont believe I am superior to any race because of my skin color, I made one racial comment in my life when i was 9 yrs old it was about my baby sitter her name was olee she was black and when i was being brought home by my dad one day i made the comment that i didnt like olee and my dad asked me why and i said because she was black and my dad asked me son what color is her blood red and he said what color is your blood and i said red he then asked is her heart shaped any diffrently that yours i said no so he said whats the diffrence then she's the same as you in every way but her skin color she can laugh like you cry like you have all the same feelings as you so you treat her as you would want to be treated, I'm 26 now and I still hold that conversation near and dear to me cause he was right you are the same to me in every way that I am and capable of all the things I am capable of. So I do not believe I am at all superior to you but the same as you.
