I am white too by the way.... but on reading questions and answers on here, ive realized that white people tend to ask questions about the black race like....hey this is what i think rather than actually wanting to know the answers.Ive lived in a multiracial society and have learnt to appreciate other races and why things are the way they are.Why is it so hard for some of you to understand and accept?

Why the heck did the Europeans come over here and rape the land of the Native Americans.
Now what is happening is everyone is destroying the land and they blame it on each other and the issues become race and a person that thinks they see a problem is only looking as far as the skin and not to the root of the problem.
Yes racism abounds in this country so do have's and have not's. This will always be a problem and any way we slice it one race or another will be shallow or offended.
No clear answer.

I have another profile with which I used to take the time to answer people seriously and ask serious questions. Then I realized how stupid 99% of the people on this site are and decided that if I can't beatem, I'd join em. So now, mostly I give people off the cuff, slanted answers... unless I think someone (like you) is really being sincere, then I take a little more time and answer a little more thoughtfully.... But, don't expect the same from the other losers on this site.

Well Tiffy, i do sometimes feel like this especially when i saw many statements about other races. Instead of asking to understand they make a statement and ask why.
For example asking about why Muslims immigrate to US and still be loyal to home country?? everyone loyal to home country..not only this Muslims. Just because this muslims loyal to home and love home doesnt make them terrorists!!
Yes i lived in multiracial and really feel that the differences and the mix cultures is what shape us to be who we are and what make the world as it is. When we appreciate and learn to accept each other, there are many things we can learn and thankful for. For example, if the Africans,Latins, Asians, Arabs, Russians and Indians and many more who are in US did not ever immigrate to US, America wont be as what they are today..same like any other countries.
But racism for fact is not only an issue for the white only. It is the world problem. It's hideous i know. all Government have this problems. its up to individual to learn and be different about their understanding on this issue. Instead of believing all the untrue stories that media spoon-fed us.. why not start experiencing yourself. learn to know others races.. then see how beautiful each races can be. Rotten grapes are everywhere, in every society of Every nation and every race.. so we Cannot generalize it to every single /whole society and hate them.

ignorance breeds false judgements. I think in America, the population of white people is so much greater (or maybe just very well clumped together) that not many whites have significant interaction with other races, which leads them to make stupid judgments or work off of stereotypes. The minority in a country usually has a better understanding of such things because they have a lot more significant encounters with people of other groups (racial, social, economical, etc).
I'm white, and in america, I dont know squat about black or hispanic people, but I grew up in a country where I was the minority and I knew very well how the black people there behaved and lived and whatever because I was surrounded by it and had to adjust to their lives instead of expecting them to adjust to mine.

Kudos to you for taking this risk, I applaud you. I wanted to ask this question but I knew I would get my head ripped off for it. The majority of the questions about the black race or any race at that always come from the white race. They are also the ones who are quick to say get over it but we didnt start the racism thing. We didnt invade their country and take them from it.
The only thing I can say is pass it on to your children and their children and so forth and hopefully one day..............this will all end.
Have a blessed holiday season.

Hey, not all of us white people are shallow! I am a white lady with numerous friends in all races and ethnics groups, some of whom I would trust my very life with....if it ever came down to it...You, my white friend appear to be harboring deep issues regarding the races other than our own..."The way they are?" What does that exactly apply about you?

Now, edit out the word, white; this will result in a slightly more intelligent question.

Why are you being so general about white people? Isn't that what racism is all about? Making broad statements about an entire group of people is stereotyping. Get off your high horse.

I'm white and I see what you are saying. I'm not a racist, but from the questions I have seen on Yahoo Answers, more of the racist questions are from white people. I've wondered that myself, but not all whites are racist. You don't seem like you are.
