Whites are constantly called racists. My experiences have been different. What group of people do you feel are most racist?

I really don't think that any one group is more racist than another. I believe we all have some racist tendencies. The difference comes from not allowing those feelings to be a ruling factor in your life. Racism is now overused as an attack strategy in the United States. If you disagree with anything related to a minority group you are deemed a racist by the opposition. This is not an honest position for people to adopt, but it allows them to discount any valid points you might express with which they don't agree.

It's hard to say, I think that in any group of people, any one of them can be prejudice for one reason or another at any given time.

I think prejudice comes from personal experience many times. You can't say one group is any more "racist" than the other, we are all "racist" or prejudice for many different reasons on many different occasions.

Germans were "racist" against Jews--though the Jews looked JUST like them, spoke the language and were assimilated into the culture,
Serbs were "racist" against the Kurds, The tutsis in Africa, the sunni's and shiites,
and on and on......
But in the end, when the genocides are over, does it all even matter?

In my own opinion, the biggest cause of racism is isolation from other groups of people, leading one to associate only with people from their own group. This tends to result in thought and behavior that places other groups in a "them" category, instead of looking at "them" as individuals, and being people like yourself. Sometimes this isolation is self-imposed and deliberate, sometimes it is a product of where you were born and grew up. I believe that most reasonable people, when they live, work, and associate with people from all types of backgrounds, tend to be more tolerant of differences, and don't buy into all of the stereotypes.

You"ll notice that I did not say "black", or "white" or any other group - I believe that the sort of thinking that I've mentioned above, resulting from social and cultural isolation, can happen to anyone of any background - no one group or ethnicity has a monopoly on it, or is more inclined to it than another. It cuts across all of that, and is a universal problem.

Getting people to break out of this is not something that can be mandated by government legislation or quotas, the solution has to begin at an individual level, with individual enlightenment and education, especially with families and how they teach their kids when they are very young. That's where it all begins....

however i do not help McCain, a minimum of get your information correct. The nationwide Council of l. a. Raza isn't racist or radical. however they do affiliate with MEChA, yet another Hispanic corporation that's considered to be fairly radical, l. a. Raza itself has declared that that's adversarial to the racist and nationalistic beliefs of that corporation. They help civil rights for all, and do not discriminate in any respect.

In my opinion "African Americans" are the most racists.

Here is something that I heard just lately. A white guy found himself in a mostly black neighborhood and lost. He was ultimately robbed and shot when trying to ask for directions. When interviewed by the news, one resident (in a barely understandable form of English) said that he deserved it because he got what he deserved because he didnt belong in a neighborhood like that.

We have all heard things similar to that and it was thought of as somewhat acceptable, or at least understandable. Now lets change the variables and see how ridiculous it is.

A black guy is walking through a mostly white neighborhood and is robbed and shot just because he doesnt belong in a neighborhood like that. How fast do you think Al Sharpton will be there on that one.

It's all relative depending on where you live in the world. Different cultures have always had problems with getting on with other cultures. People believe their way is the best. We need to celebrate our differences and learn something from them. In the end, we all have similar hopes, dreams and wishes.

Everyone is guilty of some form of prejudice, whether it be against skin color, gender, nation of origin, economic status, sexual orientation, or religion. I highly doubt there is one person on this planet who hasn't at one time or another had prejudicial feelings, it's human nature. Some groups though take it to an extreme such as the KKK, Black Panthers, Al Qaeda , etc....

muslims & blacks, esp black muslims. They hate all non-muslims, they're the biggest racists. Black people hate white people more than white people hate black people, I've seen it with my own eyes.
You don't see big groups of whites attacking blacks in inner city areas, but you get big groups of blacks robbing and stabbing whites. In fact, I think black people hate everyone too, including themselves.
