I think that sounds like a racist question! lol! That is just an opinion. My opinion is that most white people are NOT racist. I know that I am not. I love all races - we are all people with intelligence and emotions. I know just as many people of other races that are prejudice as are Caucasians. I was fortunate to go to school in a town that has a little bit of everything so it was just normal to get along. On the high school track team, we had blacks, white, Asians and one Egyptian and we just all worked together to win. That's how life should be!
The most prejudice I ever saw against myself was when I had a black boyfriend for 7 years. Black women would give me the evil eye and would even ask him why he would want to be with a white girl. One time, I was just running around the Rose Bowl with a black male friend and I was getting dirty looks then too. But my black female friends did not have a problem with me being with my boyfriend.

Probably the same reason people like you never learned to formulate a question properly. To answer your ridiculous question I will ask on of you; what research led you to the conclusion that there are more racists who are white? I'm sure this wouldn't just be your opinion (or imagination). I "think" minorities have more presumptions about whites than the other way around and I don't remember a white person demanding special treatment from the government. Maybe the stigma that welfare is a minority program and more crimes are commited by minorities (in relation to % of population) then whites... but I guess you can blame the judicial system for targeting minorities huh? I'll leave you with this comment: Has any "bad" area of a town ever been associated with white inhabitants? A ghetto, slum, downtown, projects etc... all associated with... class dismissed.

Is this a question or a statement?
If you feel racism from white people, it would seem there are more white racists. But it doesn't make it fact. Racists come in all colors. I'm sure the ratio (black to white) will be equal to the predominate color of the population of a given area.
Don't be a victim. It is wasting your life. If you look for racism you will find it. But it drags you down. If you let yourself continue to feel like a victim you will never succeed at anything. Regardless of color, all of us can feel like a victim for one reason or another. Someone(s) can put any of us down, cut us out, bad mouth us...for who we are; whatever we are.

you never been to other countries........hate is something that all peoples have in common. Yellow, Black, Red, and the White all hate, it just comes out is different ways. Maybe the whites are more vocal about their prejudices, while some Asians keep their hatred inside....etc. Be careful......when you talk about the basic emotions all people share them....when you label one group this way and not the others aren;t you kind of protraying a similar type of prejudice or bigotry? Think about it.

And you have a count on this??? There are racists everywhere of every color - white people don't have a monopoly on this stupidity. If you are referring to the USA, then there are more white racists here because there are more white people here, but there are still plenty of black racists, etc. Stupidity doesn't recognize the color of your skin.

seems that way, but not sure its true. There is a lot of racism worldwide. However the "white" race (assuming western European decent here) has been the one that has colonized and suppressed many races for the past few (or more) centuries. This false sense superiority may give the white race a leading edge in racism.

What nonsense.. Talk to east Indians about their feelings about black people.
It's all nonsense, black white,yellow red.. we are all the same. We all feel things the same.. we all love our kids the same.. rich or poor the emotions are the same.
