Some whites are racists. But most times some whites are called racists when they are not. Like this lazy black dude that works where I do. He is extremely slow and lazy. The rest of us run circles around him. If I address the issue that he is lazy I will be called a racist. Despite the fact that I called him lazy because he is lazy and not because he is black.

First off, we are not minorities. I hope your use of the word refers to the fact that where you live, there are more whites than persons of other races. Do you have any idea how many blacks and other so-called minorities there are in this world?
But, to get to the point: some whites are racist because imagining that they are superior to other races makes them feel better about themselves.
It's something they use to while the time away while they are lying halfnaked in the sun or applying bronzing cream! Or is it when they are stuffing their boobs with silicone and injecting their lips and asses so that they can look more like us? I am sorry! No, it's while they are screaming for the black basketball stars, rooting for the black athletes, listening to the blues, or reggae music!
Does that answer your question?

To answer your question, the core of white racists feelings about blacks is that they are a damaging addition to our society (I do not agree). Crime rates, ebonics, abusing govt help, lifestyle, all that stuff, but of course you already knew that.
But.... I believe there are just as many, IF NOT MORE black racists. Just take into account most comedians and rappers alone. If white people said half the things they did, there would be a huge uproar. It's a huge double standard.

People in general are scared of what is foreign to them and they fear change. I, as a white man, would feel very uncomfortable in a room of young black youths, mostly because I *feel* that I have nothing in common with them, much the same way a black man might feel very uncomfortable in a group of Mexicans or Gays. That is why it is easy to have semi-racist feelings about another group.
On the other hand, one on one dealings with people tend to break down these feelings. In smaller groups we can talk and see that much of our lives are not different, but our experiences are really very similar. We can explore the differences, understand them, and process them for what they are.

They've met someone of another race who interacted with them in a negative way.
Or, they have been conditioned by their parents/family to be that way.
Or, they buy into stereotypes and think that just because some people of a certain race act negatively, that all of that race do the same
Maybe all or part of any of the above.

Apparently you haven't been paying much attention to this message board. Many blacks who comment here have a fierce, deep hatred for all whites, and whites as the the primary reason they are not happy or successful in life. Look to your own back yard for answers.

I'm going to guess a combination of ignorance and fear. That seems to be at the core of most bigotry.

Probably for the same reason that some blacks are racist.
Unfortunately, everybody seems to take more notice of the
minority, (Idiots.) rather than the majority of normal people.
Until we stop giving these people free publicity, we will never get rid of them.
