Jews and Rroma (gypsies) are good candidates for "top victims of the century", but don't forget about Slavs, Native Americans, and African Americans.

This cannot logically, and with proof, be answered.
To do so would take a massive scholarly study, probably decades in length.
Each race and ethnicity would have to be studied throughout its entire history. Has the entire history of every race and ethnicity been recorded and recorded accurately? What about the races and ethnicities that have no written language or, for most of their past, have had none? How can you research those?
I can say so-and-so race has had it the worst. However, do I know, in the past of ALL races and peoples, ALL of their trials and tribulations?
No.
If you look into racial and ethnic history, you are going to find atrocities and tragedies in every single one of them at the hands of some other race or ethnicity.
I believe that if you narrow the search parameters some you can ask that question a bit more accurately. Say, a given time period in a given location. Even then, can you be accurate? Can anyone know everything about every race and ethnicity in that location? Are you certain you are not leaving someone out, forgetting some small minority?
I have not devoted my life to this study so I cannot even begin to give you an educated answer.

As corny as this will sound, I believe it's the Human Race. We tear each other apart in our differences and look to point the finger. Then, we have this odd notion to wish for peace and equality. I have known so many people of many different ethnicity's and backgrounds. Some of these people were good, others were not. Now, I only see the Human Race instead of the "Race of Colors". It's not always easy and, no, I do not believe I am above anyone else.

Okay, to answer your question, I feel that Jews have probably suffered racism for a longer period throughout history, and on a more global scale.
Now, to address Ralph again. I took the time to read your copy & paste this time around...You are missing so much vital information in your "statistics" that the equations don't even work. I'll have to go & retrieve that data myself, because you are doing math without all the required components. Anyways, I feel very sorry for you. It appears you have been thoroughly brainwashed by some highly uneducated individuals with a propensity for manipulating information, facts, and statistics to make them fit a pre-existing argument.

Not white people - We allow ourselves to be currently walked on, can't be considered victims in my book if you allow it.
Not Blacks - Their own people (tribes in Africa) sold their own kind to the slave traders. You cannot claim the race is victimized if their own people took part in it.
Jew's aren't really a race but a culture
Asian have taken alot of flak but not that bad
I would have to say the race most victimized was what we now consider American Indians. They had a country taken from them, not to mention the high numbers massacred.

I'd say Native Americans in this country.....
First we were killed off by the white man because there was gold in them thar hills or some other greed related reason....this is called Genocide
Then, we serve this country proudly and have the highest per capita enlistment for any ethnic group......and our veterans can't get decent housing and medical care...
Last, we finally find a form of self-sufficiency from the federal gov't and they stand there with their hands waiting for their cut......not to mention bigots who think Natives have got enought from this country.....well, it was their ancestors who signed those treaties and they should learn a thing or two about keeping your word.......Look at the good casinos have done for the tribes that had the foresight to pursue this despite opposition from the feds and at the state level.....and still bigots want a piece of the pie so they can print more of their hate-filled rhetoric......
Finally, Natives pretty much have to be twice as smart, work twice as hard, and accept the status quo, however unfair, to get anywhere in corporate America......while anglos and other light-skinned folks enjoy the good-ole-boy system...

Native Americans I think they were victimized more than any other race in american history. Thier land was taken way, they were forced to give up their culture, and a good chunk of them were killed off from Old World diseases. They were strong, proud and resourceful people now dwindled down to a mere 1% of the US population. Sheesh!

This is actually a topic I have thought about a fair bit ever since seeing an Oprah on that same topic. At first, being Muslim, I thought, 'us us" but after listening to the black women speak, I changed my mind completely. We might receive prejudice in our adopted countries but we CHOSE to come to them, the blacks did not. They were hijacked.
It is not the Jews; they were sold out primarily by the Zionists in exchange for Israel. Nor is it my own people, the gypsies although we have had a terrible time of it over the centuries as well. Not all of us, btw, are destitute or ... "thieves" as someone said in the last place I posted in here.
The black people were taken from their lands under inhuman circumstances and placed in slavery. Then, when finally freed, still faced hatred and prejudice in their new country. They were terribly treated. Africa never recovered after the loss of so many of its people and the collapse of local communities and tribes.
Now in Africa we see the genocide of the African people as the New World Order empties the land in preparation to recolonize it in their own image once most of the ***** population is gone. It does not get too much worse than that.

Six million Jews died in WW2, that's surely a lot of prejudice, right?
