Every race has racially discriminated in SOME WAY. We have all stereotyped at some point. And yes, even you people that just LURVE you some Black people can be racist at heart, too. Lumping races together (even if it seems positive) is racist. Example: "Asians are so pretty and exotic." "Black people can really dance." Now, you might see that as a compliment, but it's just a patronizing blanket statement that lumps everyone together. Maybe Asian women get tired of being lumped together as these subservient, docile, oh-so-cute little creatures, just like Black women get tired of being portrayed as these loud-mouthed, sassy Aunt Jemima types. And I'm pretty sure that hispanic women get tired of people seeing them as these fiery, hot-blooded sex-machines. So yah, we're all racist in some way.

I work at a place that has employees from almost every race in the world. When I've mentioned that it's a religious holiday for a different culture and people are taking the day off to celebrate it. It seems that more Caucasian people are upset because they don't feel if they wanted to celebrate a certain day they would not be allowed to take the day off. Well, a lot of the people from other cultures don't necessarily have an excused day off, they have just decided to phone in and say, hey this is my belief and I'm am taking the day to celebrate it.
I don't know if I got a little off track there, but I do see the people who can be more racist than others, and it makes me sad for them.

I think that it depends on the region of the country that you are from. In the south for instance, there is a history of racism against blacks, but now there is a backlash of black people being racist against mexicans and whites. It is different all over the country i think.

I always joke with my friends that I'm racist for the wrong race. I think African Americans have an amazing culture and have overcome an evil in their background. They should be proud of themselves and I can't help but agree with you about them. I'm actually part Cherokee indian, half Samoan, part German, and part Caucasian. I'm a mutt, really. But I think every race has those few who say things they shouldn't about another race. Still a valid question though.

Whites!!!! Just take a look at some of these questions on here. You find way more questions by whites attacking other races than questions by other races attacking whites.

everybody's answer is going to be "the other group is more racist"...just like "nobody else but us should have a nuclear bomb". nothing wrong with blacks, whites, asians, or any other race simply as a question of race. as a question of behavior, there should not be a direct association w/race. each of us is responsible for our actions regardless of what color we might be.

THE HUMAN RACE! Is the most racist.
What is a "white"? Albinos are the whitest, some are Negroes from Africa,a lot of Latinos are quite white, but considered brown, a lot of blue eyed, blond Asians are not considered white, a lot of American blacks have more white blood in them than black. Do you know the meaning of the word stereotyping?

i think its everyone who been hurt by the other race..they have a tendency to generalize the race of people who hurt them, that is why they feel that way.
some get furious if someone get ahead of them either in their career, parking or in line for something. they are vindictive if they been replaced in someone else affection, they hate other if they get selected, win, top anything that required popularity contest, that is where the animosity and jealousy started.
or some who get victimized by the other race like robbery, mugged, accident wise, they start disliking the other people race...

whites. they have wielded their power on all the rest. Look at the British and Indians, US against the Blacks, Europeans with their Spanish conquests, Germans against the Jews. But I think there are racists in all colours and good people in all colours as well.

Racism is something we all have to work on in order to abolish it.
Answering your question would be racist if I chose one race as more negative than another, in any form.
