If you listen to why most black people who are involved in crime it's because they are oppressed by the white man. Any time you read and article or a news program or a talk show, the black man who is the one that represents themselves as still be held down by the white man. So, reallly, it's not the white man that keeps bringing it up, it's the black man. I personally don't care about ****, or who does or doesn't have it. Good for you if you do. What I get tired of is people of all races blaming someone else for this or that. Instead of taking responsibility for their own actions. Everyone needs to grow up and act more mature than three year olds on the playground.

jealous? of what? and SOMEof you do still blame us for your misfourtunes. notice i said some, not all. some of you say that all your troubles are due to your ancestors being slaves.Baloney!! your misfortunes are no ones fault but your own, I am Native American, and it would be really easy for me to blame the White Man for all our troubles, but I dont. What happened 100 or more years ago has nothing to do with now. Get over it. And I dont think anyone hates to see a black man with a white woman, which is what i am guessing you are trying to say. Nobody cares.

But seriously, folks..........
Unfortunately, racism is alive and well in the USA. The saddest part is that it will never go away in its entirety. There will always be the ignorant ones, of any extraction, who just can't turn it loose.
As far as the specifics of your question, this perception amongst us white folks, wherein some believe that African Americans think we are the root of the inequality that still exists, the idea is self perpetuating.
What I mean is, all are aware of the history of the black man in our society. I believe that whenever references to the reprehensible institution of slavery are made by one in the African American communtiy, it has the appearance that one is still looking for some kind of remuneration or as a reminder of those actions being the cause of the inequity of today.
Further, some high profile members of the black community, like Rev. Al Sharpton, Dick Gregory, Bill Cosby, (all of whom are intelligent, articulate and well educated) at times seem to reinforce this notion through comments they make in lectures or on talk TV and radio. Of course it is quite impossible to discuss these matters without inflaming someone's emotions.
Images of black men hanging in southern trees, Watts in flames, men in white robes and hoods, one million marching men, flaming crosses, dead children in a church basement, a woman refusing to go to the back of the bus and, yes, airliners flown into buildings, are permanently etched into our collective psyches. Reminders that these things once were are unnecessary, but when dredged up by way of conversation or presentation is easily interpreted, by many, as a little "poke in the side", seemingly to serve as a reminder that "we owe you."
Then there are those of the African American community with forward looking visions, both past and present. People like Barak Obama, Condoleeza Rice, Dr. King and wife Coretta, Medger Evars, and on and on. These are people with deep roots in the past but who are also aware that the past should be just that, the past.
On the other hand, there are the destructive influences from the black community that do more damage to the African American image than anything the white slave masters were able to do. I cannot see the purpose of the radical rap music.
For one thing, it should not be classified as music, in my opinion. Art, yes, Poetry set to music, yes. But the most disturbing thing to me, and it should be disturbing to the African Americans in our society as well, is that if the English lexicon as it is today didn't have the words "n**ga" or "gangsta" or "muthafuka" there would be few lyrics to go along with the music. This is a sad commentary, indicating to me that there are many people, whose efforts go a long way toward "keeping the black man down," from inside their own ranks.
So what's the solution? I hear rhetoric, both destructive and constructive, all the time. The stereo-types still exist and there are those whose mission it is to inflame on all sides. Though the terrorism we face today is a great danger, it will not be the thing that will ever bring this country down. Our mutual hatred will. It's time to stop.

That is not true I am white and I love all races. I even dated a black man he was hot, but I moved so I am single again. He never blamed me for anything except leaving him and not doing long distance relationships because they really do not work!

It doesn't bother me to see a black man with a white women. What seems weird is a white man with a black woman.

I think you're generalizing white people as much as some white people generalize black and Hispanic people.

We aren't jealous, we just can't understand why you don't like women of your own race. Is it possible you just want a white slave, and when that doesn't pan out, you have a white punching bag.
