Its a holdover from humanity's prehistoric days as tribal beings. Survival back then was very much about an "us" versus "them" mentality. It needn't be that way any more, but it takes logic and reason for people to apply temperance to their instincts, and for too many people, logic and reason are in short supply.

Ya know....as soon as 99% of the blacks I have the misfortune to come in contact with STOP treating ME like a 2ND class citizen then maybe we can talk. I give every single person I meet a fair shot at having my respect, I judge no one on the color of their skin, but I get judged every time for being white. I get ignored by black clerks if there is a black person in line BEHIND me. I get ignored and the black person helped. This is not a one time thing..this is a regular thing. I live in an area where all colors and classes naturally separate themselves from the other, and I gave up being a SAHM to my boys, to go back to work, so we could double our income just so we could afford to move 10 stinkin miles away so my kids can go to school and NOT get called cracker....not get called Casper...NOT be one of only 4 whites in a class of 30....Now seeing blacks at school is rare..and those that we do see, great, they are very normal...not like the kind we would run into where we used to live. I've actually made friends here who've proved to me that not all blacks are ignorant, not all blacks hate whites.
So....I really think blacks as a whole need to stop and think about the way y'all treat whites...and stop automatically assuming the worst. Chances are, its you who've furthered the racial gap.

Well, dont throw stones, because black people are some of the most racists i've seen. So are asian people. Why? I dont know, except maybe pride. Yes, pride. Thats the first step towards ethno centricism. White Power! Black Power! Yellow Power! Bean Power! Every race strives to think of itself as better than the others. Yep, its stupid. But dont try and pretend black people ain't racist. We all know thats a lie.

You need to qualify your question. Why are "some" people racist, and it's about time "racist" people stop messing with blacks and get a life. Your question as originally stated stereotypes all people as racist, and I don't think that's what you meant(?).

We are all diffirent people. However, when we took your folks from the jungles, we were hundreds of years more advanced then they were. today ,we are aware that your race is still way behind on behavior and obedience as well as education and responsibility. We can only carry you so far. You need to get your mom, grandma, cousins, and boyfriend off of welfare and out to get jobs. Welfare preserves ignorance and we are sick and tired of tolerating this in our communities.

a lot of people are racist, but not just whites. some blacks are, hey, some states are! I have a friend who moved to arizona, and had some friends who were getting all mad because the "stupid californians were ruining their land" I'm not racist at all, but I know some who are. I don't like it, but they have learned I don't like it, and don't say anything racist around me, unless they want to be chewed out :) some blacks are mean to whites too. but thats a result of whites behavior to them...most of the time, but its a circle...somone has to start being nice, but that won't happen. at least God created us all with equal souls, and thats what matters....sorry if you have problems of racism...I like you!
God bless!

Black people are not the only people who have to deal with racism. Some black people are bigots too...
We will never know why some folks have shallow beliefs about others.
Only thing we can do is not let their beliefs & actions control the way we respond and just pray for them.

Because people are ignorant and whats the real question is why so they choose to hate before loving!!???? To love and not to hate is much more prosperous!!!!! It can't be easy to be stupid and have ignorance, could it?! So i guess ignorance, and actually jealously, is the ultimate answer, unfortunately
