How is it about skin color when you can tell the differences between races in black and white photos? You can tell differences by skull alone and facial features. How exactly is it about skin color when whites come from white skin to tan skin naturally and blacks can be any form of brown? I don't get it.

You are basing people like the old 1950's and 1960's US census. You can not classify people by skin tone or facial features. Would you consider Egyptians, white? East Indians? Mariah Carey? In the US, Egyptians are considered white. They have dark skin tones. Go to website: www.pbs.org/race

There are racists in each and every race, because of the fact there are idiots in each and every race. inspite of the undeniable fact that, no longer all racists are racist because of the fact they have self assurance their dermis shade is a approaches more advantageous than others - possibly the ordinary public have self assurance this, yet no longer all. I knew a guy who disliked a definite race purely because of the certainty that he were attacked via a gang who have been all of this race, so it somewhat differs from guy or woman. And sure, some human beings will look back to the previous and choose a definite race on that. How might racism supply up? nicely, i think of it is going to consistently be around, yet i've got self assurance it is going to shrink and shrink as time is going on.. optimistically.

I agree -- you definitely don't get it. Blacks not only come in "any form of brown" but in whitish or pink skin too. You can't always tell the differences in B&W photos.

Think Wentworth Miller, Mariah Carey and Kitt Shapiro. Black. Black. Black.

And there are many others you probably put in one catergory or another, and were wrong.

I think the most obvious form of racism is based on color but it comes in cultural forms as well.

are you completely dense? you're asking why we look at skin color instead of facial bone structure? hmmm... maybe you're right. next time i go on a racist rampage on someone i am going to ask for cranial x-rays so i can execute my predudices in a more scientifically practical way.

It's a lot more than that. It's the culture in which you were raised. Jesus would have been brown like the Arabs now.

it's not on skin color, it's on ethnic group...the french and german are both white, spanish and british are both white, swedish and greenlandians are both white...it's just what racial group you are. so the germans can hate the british, even though they're both white. africans can hate africans, south americans can hate south americans...it's just your heritage

I think that it is a good thing that you don't know, but in order to understand it you must know the truth about it.
