I think we see more White people discriminating against other races simply because they are the majority in this country. Some people in general are just ignorant and are to lazy to go out in the real world and learn about different people so they make generalizations and assumptions out of lack of knowledge and motivation. There are Black that do discriminate against other ethnic groups, you can't deny that, I personally don't but I have seen other Black people making fun or using racial slurs to put down other people.

That's not the case at all... Yes, some white ppl do discriminate, however, that's not to say that all do. I am from Georgia and I can tell you that living there for the most part, white ppl are a minority and were discriminated against by the blacks. I now reside in Wisconsin and find that the white's are rather racist and it turns my stomach.
Bottom line, you can't say that one race is prone to discriminate more than another. All races discriminate against others, it's just what you perceive of it at the time.
As for black being a color and not a race, you have a point there, however, until all "races" treat every color as being equal, there will always be races.

There is no way white people discriminate more than blacks. I mean yeah, there are some terribly racist white folks out there....but again, you're generalizing. Not all white people are out to get black people like some of the blacks may think. In reality, they sometimes discriminate more against the whites than the whites do against the blacks. I dunno, I just wish all these dumb questions would stop, because I'm sick of reading them, and sick of trying to prove a point. Everybody has their own opinion and there are certain parts where somebody is right about one thing and wrong about the other. I'm sure a black person is going to have a totally different opinion as opposed to a white person. So why bother to even ask the question Just so you can get a rise out of people to make yourself feel better? Sounds a little too contrived to me.

I think this has already been answered to death, but to add my 10 cents, I've met some terribly racist ****** (this is the correct way to say it, you're right, not BLACK), who lump ALL Caucasians into ONE group too, so it is present in every race. Watch tonight's episide of "Trading Spouses"
The problem as I see it is that some ****** use slavery as a crutch as to why their lives arent going like they want it to & feel that they are "owed" something.
The truth is almost every country on earth had ***** slaves, the reason? Because ****** themselves sold other ******, so if anyone wants to blame anyone, ****** need to take a long look at thier own history. It wasnt Caucasians running around the jungle hunting down ******, it was tribes capturing other tribes & then selling thier own people into slavery! Was it wrong? At the time who knows what was wrong or right, ****** were looked at like animals, those that did this were "ignorant", NOT "racist", they simply didnt know better. Hell, future generations may look back in shame at how we treat animals today, you never know. However, those that perpetuate it today are racist, because now we know better, which is why I wish we could drop this "Race Card", because if the Caucasians of today were transported back in time, they would not have enslaved an entire race. No, it's not White Vs Black, it's Educated Vs. Ignorance, that is the real battle which must be fought to end racism.

What? What planet are you residing on? have you ever no longer observed that a Black guy with an Islamic call is basically approximately a cinch to alter right into a ingredient interior the U. S. Presidental race? you're able to be speaking a pair of disgusting few people in case you're speaking concerning to usa. There has constantly been hatred, hatred of undesirable, hatred of the choice intercourse, hatred of colorations different than their very own, and hatred of religions they do no longer comprehend. yet check out the strides that have got here approximately interior the final hundred years, the variations that have been made. i'm a white 40 12 months previous woman from a small city history. i would be balloting Barack Obama, i won't be in a position of stand Hillary Clinton. What disgusts me are people who communicate out of their behinds without good judgment at the back of it, or that are too lazy to care. I even have hatred for noone yet people like those.

Both white and black do descriminate on the basis of colour, race, belief, region or origin. However, by comparison its probably true that white people are more likely to descriminate against the blacks. The most obvious reason is competition for resources and/or power.
Since this is the most obvious reason or cause, descrimination is thus practiced by both whites and blacks within and without. However, since the real power, both politically and economically, is mainly and truly in the hands of whites, its not unreasonable to see or believe that white descriminate more against whoever threatens their domination. Those blacks who hold power would do the same!
But it is equally true that those who fight descrimination against the blacks are more likely to be white than blacks.

While some of your sentiments may have been true 20 to 30 years ago, they definitely are not now. If anything "blacks" will take any action and will claim it's due to discrimination, this tends to propagate ill feelings and discrimination.
I'm not sure what you mean by "originated mostly every thing" as everything was originated by many people of many different heritages from many different places.

I don;t agree with u i am sorry ! I feel we have come a long way in a hundred years , I don;t think its fair for u to say that . what i wanna know is why is it ok for blacks to use the N word and if awhite person says it they are racists . i feel we are all equal no matter what color u are , what u make of ur life depends on u NOT ur color .Please look up the word race in the dictionary.it means to move swiftly ,or competing , the way a current of water moves , we are not competing but when u use the word race it sounds like it ,

In general the majority discriminate against the minority. This isn't to say that ALL the majority are predjudiced (from my experience, very few of them are) or that NONE of the minority ever discriminate.
However, on what do you base your claim that "black people are the one who really originated mostly every thing"?

It only seems that White people discriminate more because people make a big deal out of it when it happens, when a black person discriminates it is suppose to be OK and nothing is said about it. But now your stereo-typing. Even black people call themselves BLACK.
