This is for white people only . Has a black person ever been raciest against you?

I can't believe that some of you say "Black people are not racists", another one said, "White people are not racists". MY QUESTION IS. How many Black people or White people DO YOU KNOW IN THIS WORLD?. You all answer your questions like if you are an EXPERT OF HUMANITY AND SOCIETY. You don't know of the entire races of humanity. So, don't exaggerate things you have no clue of what so ever. Any one can be a racist, Black, White, Asian, Hispanic, Interracial, Mullato, Jew, Piggity, Rochette, Native American, Basque, you NAME IT.
answer questions that you know about, questions like "Is Paris Hilton a female or male".

If by your question you mean have I ever experienced racism at the hands of a black person then yes I have.
White people don't have exclusivity on prejudice. It exists everywhere..within all races.. I've been called names, shoved...screamed at by strangers...I think because in part I was a woman and mostly because I was white. I've not gotten a job because my potential employer was a black woman and I know she wanted an all black staff. Should she get away with that? No.
Prejudice is prejudice..no matter what the color is of the person spewing the hate, it's wrong...always wrong.

yes
where I used to work was in the city and we had a pretty even scale race wise for employees and those moving up.
Then they hired a black lady as production manager and one white person was hired to every 10 black. Furthermore only black people were being promoted. This same lady got in my best friends face and said "you wanna call me a ****** don't you?"
Anyhow needless to say, I quit and so did most of the white people there. Now, they cant meet production. Kinda funny

These people who continually claim that black people can't be racist have me wondering what definition they are working from. Merriam-Webster's online has racism listed as:
1 : a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race
2 : racial prejudice or discrimination
So clearly by that definition anybody can be racist. It is really just another example of how the word racism/racist is over used. One day somebody will sue these people who say blacks can't be racist, on grounds that they are trying to deprive black people of the rights everyone else enjoys. I know, that's racist.

DUH!!!
No one claims blacks aren't racist...
I hope you aren't saying its OK to hate blacks because some are racist...thats a dumb argument if you are.
Hell, I've been discriminated against by blacks for having a thing for white boys. All people are stupid and hateful and backward. I even lump all whites together and make broad assumptions. Its not right and its not justifiable and just because someone is hateful doesn't mean return the same in kind. Call them on it and make them aware of what they are doing if you can.

Every day. I work as a Leasing Manager for an apartment complex, and i get called all manner of things if i don't bend over backwards for people who want the world handed to them. We have very strict criteria as far as credit and criminal backgrounds go and unfortunately in my experience the majority of those people who actually qualify are middle class white people. So yeah i definitely get to see the under belly of the culture.

WELL I'M BLACK, AND I'M ANSWERING.
i think everyone has experience racism from every race.
i'm blk. i've experienced racism from blks, whites, asians, latinos and so on.
i'm sure as a white person you have experienced racism from a white.
EX.
you are interviewing for a job, but an latino is also interviewing for the job. the latino may be picked because they are latino, and will bring a different perspective to the company. so he will be picked for his race, and you will be discarded for yours.
Did A Black Man Tap Yo Mama A**??? why call out blks?
you are so pathetic...

Yes it has to me and has been happening in politics a lot now too. blacks think there in-titled to more than whites because of slavery but, reality check today's blacks were never slaves. also whites were slaves in ancient times to Egyptian, who are partially, blacks.
