Although Jews are not a race, I would say that there is more anti-Semitism than any form of racism. The latest form of anti-Semtism is disguised as anti-Zionism or criticism of Israel.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. addressed this question. He stated:

". . . You declare, my friend, that you do not hate the Jews, you are merely 'anti-Zionist.' And I say, let the truth ring forth from the high mountain tops, let it echo through the valleys of God's green earth: When people criticize Zionism, they mean Jews--this is God's own truth.

"Antisemitism, the hatred of the Jewish people, has been and remains a blot on the soul of mankind. In this we are in full agreement. So know also this: anti-Zionist is inherently anti-Semitism, and ever will be so.

"Why is this? You know that Zionism is nothing less than the dream and ideal of the Jewish people returning to live in their own land. The Jewish people, the Scriptures tell us, once enjoyed a flourishing Commonwealth in the Holy Land. From this they were expelled by the Roman tyrant, the same Romans who cruelly murdered Our Lord. Driven from their homeland, their nation in ashes, forced to wander the globe, the Jewish people time and again suffered the lash of whichever tyrant happened to rule over them.

"The ***** people, my friend, know what it is to suffer the torment of tyranny under rulers not of our choosing. Our brothers in Africa have begged, pleaded, requested--DEMANDED the recognition and realization of our inborn right to live in peace under our own sovereignty in our own country.

"How easy it should be, for anyone who holds dear this inalienable right of all mankind, to understand and support the right of the Jewish People to live in their ancient Land of Israel. All men of good will exult in the fulfillment of God's promise, that his People should return in joy to rebuild their plundered land.

"This is Zionism, nothing more, nothing less.

"And what is anti-Zionist? It is the denial to the Jewish people of a fundamental right that we justly claim for the people of Africa and freely accord all other nations of the Globe. It is discrimination against Jews, my friend, because they are Jews. In short, it is antisemitism."

Hmmm if u think about it every race has experienced racism in the USA, except white people. It depends on the time period.
During world war 2 it was the Japanese. post 9/11 it is the Arabs, or the Muslim population in general, and recently its the Hispanics. So it all depends on the time period, I personally think its the Governments fault for directing hatred towards a certain race, like they are currently doing to the south Americans.

Everyone in America is harassed at some point, some people just make a louder squeal when it happens.

No one group is immune from racism, after all this is America and like it or not, this country was founded on racism; the real trick is getting passed it and moving forward.

Excellent question btw.

I would say right now racism is directed more toward Hispanics because of immigration issues. At least that's the excuse the racists are using in an attempt justify their hate. Sad how we all fail to realize or remember that we are a nation of immigrants. Why must history keep repeating itself? God help us.

Blacks...not for the simple fact that im black but that we went through our struggle(slavery/civil rights/racism) the longest(HUNDREDS of years) and lost the most people (millions). And also the simple fact...we have a derogatory word (the-n word) that i feel that is used more and more known than any other racially hurting words.

The weak. The poor. Those who have no voice. Those who have no one to represent them. The friendless. Those who wish to do what is right. If a group says they're oppressed, yet can afford lawyers, a political platform, TV cameras, and air time, these are called ' LIARS '.

The black woman. we have 2 strikes against us. we're woman and we're black. people can just look at us and automatically hate us without even speaking to us. but then again, the black man no one trusts around their women, jobs, ect.
Black people are the most talked about and complained about online and anywhere else. Arabs can rent apartments and get jobs more than blacks so thats not a validity to say that they are the most hated.

that's funny, because I would say either black or white people are subjected to the most racism in the US.

My goodness you said race...well that makes it a little harder because there are only a few races, Black, White, Asian and
American Indian.

So much easier had you said ethnicity or nationality, then we can
go on and on.

I would say Whites.

Impossible to determine. Racism is displayed in the heart more than words. So no telling what racist words are bouncing around in someones head.
