Why if i ask a Question with a Racial Topic, am i considered a Racist all of a sudden??

Question

i'm just curious as to what the answers might be.......if you cant answer the question honestly then don't even answer at all.

Answer 1

I agree with you. People should be allowed to question things without being branded a racist.

Answer 2

I guess it all depends on what kind of question you ask and what tone you ask the question. I don't consider anybody a racist unless they ask a question that incites racism in people, but if a black person wants to honestly know what a white person's opinion is and asks a legitimate question, there is no racism. But you can't control how a person takes an innocent question either.

Answer 3

It really depends on the way you ask and the intention of the question(s).

If you ask an intelligent question, most people will recognize that and give you an honest answer regarding how they feel.

If you ask in a way that it is clear your intention is to insult and not to acquire knowledge and understanding, most people will pick up on that and treat you accordingly.

Hope this helps!
