Racism, Prejudice, Discrimination, etc.. will always exist and I agree that money rule all but we also may need money as a form of payment for services performed. What we don't need is land value. You should listen to Malcolm X, "The Ballot or the Bullet."

People always accuse me of being racist; I'm not. I just don't like the people that call me racist. If they happen to be black (which is what it always is anyway), well, sorry. Quit harping on it and that will help make the world a better place.

I'll address my comments to blacks and white in America.
Frankly, it's up to blacks to stop it.
I know, you're outraged to think that it isn't the fault of crackers like me, but hear me out.
Who is making sure that there is as much difference between black & white in America as possible...? As Bob Dylan said, it ain't me, babe.
I'm for *everyone* wearing business suits; not whites in suits, and blacks in those awful butt-hgging pants with oversized sports shirts.
I'm for *everyone* speaking proper English in America...not English for whites, and Ebonics (ugh) for blacks.
I'm for marriage and families; not marriage and family for whites, and a series of illegitimate infants and Baby Daddies (a black term, btw) for blacks.
You realize, this list could go on all night; my point is, WHITES AREN'T KEEPING BLACK OUT OF MAINSTREAM SOCIETY; blacks are.
Blacks who enter the mainstream...and, there are many... prosper or fail as whites prosper or fail. But, blacks who separate themselves from American society have marginalized themselves, and have no legitimate complaint.
This is my opinion.
Btw, I do not say African-American unless the subject was born in Zimbabwe, e.g., and naturalized as a citizen; I refuse to separate Americans into subsets.

The best advice is just get over your fear and come out of your comfort zone. Try to understand that just because someone looks a little different from you doesnt mean that they are so different. You can apply that to anything.

Eliminate the lower classes and have a race of highly intellegent individuals of all one race and class. Sound familar? It will go on till the end of time.

Work hard. Believe in yourself. Get away from victim mentality.
Then you will see you beat the racists in their own game.

You cant! It will most likely always be.. And its not just against black people either, its every race.
As far as poverty, you cant help someone, who doesnt help themselves!
