Can anybody tell me, what is the history that has caused the hatred of black people all over the world?

Question

I am puzzled by all the racism against black people everywhere, by almost every nationality, what did they do to cause the hatred aflicting blacks.

Almost everyone apart from Lulu misunderstood what the question is about!
I asked a question that evidently only a few honest people can answer. IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND A QUESTION DON'T TRY TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION leave it alone!

my question have served to show that people who behave in a racist way towards a black person, is unfounded.

No HISTORICAL, WHY or WHAT event took place to cause this prolonged hatred and vile treatment that black people have endured for god knows how long.
Don't get me wrong! I thing a lot of the problems faced by "some" blacks and whites are the fallout from bad feelings among blacks created by slavery.
Thank you Lulu for the best honest answer!

Answer 1

It is ignorance, my friend. Plain, ugly ignorance.

Answer 2

Rough Question...

I would say it started with European expansion. In desperate need of a cheap labor force, Africa was the most logical choice, graphically and economically. The fact that warlords would sell their rivals off to Europeans made it easy. Because of the difference in the language, the color of their skin, and because the tropical climate gave them a "slow, sluggish, dull witted" appearance, it was easy to pick on them.

things kind of remained that way until the abolitionist movement, but the perceptions remained, rooted in centuries of ignorance.

Things ALMOST got better, especially during the 60's-70's, but, forgive me any brothas and sistas, they kind of dropped the ball and let the media dictate how they were going to think and act..both anti-civil rights agitators and in fighting amongst the various black gorups caused a complete breakdown, topped off with crack in the 80's. Back on the Continent, massive civil wars, funded by European governments kept any unity between tribes (still today...are there any Hu-Tu's left?) non-existent, the complete collapse of the family structure led to poor education, and the society we see today. I should hope that the hatred felt toward that culture is actually a mis-placed hatred against ourselves (me; white) for what we've done, and an even further disgust that they let us do what we've done to them (LET YOU?? I can hear the cry...yes). Also the need (totally justified in the light of history) to be seperate, and the resistance to "assimilate" into the white culture (whatever the hell that is), has led to many problems.
The rise of the K.K.K., the N.R.A., and other groups have played a massive part in perpetrating the racism today.,

Answer 3

While it cannot be justified, I think a great deal of it comes from the institution of slavery.Hundreds of years ago the first Arab and European slavers were able to steal or sometimes buy west African natives because the Africans came from smaller states incapable of mounting an effective defense, seldom or never had firearms, and had limited access to iron weapons - they were relatively easy to abduct. To use and abuse fellow human beings without suffering intense bouts of conscience, unless one is completely sociopathic, one must dehumanize the slaves in one's own mind, and preferably also in their own minds. The common belief must have been "Yes, this is a slave, but it's not like he's really a human being. After all, I would never treat a human being like this!" That is probably a difficult thing to remove from one's mind. After the end of slavery, the continued economic and social treatment of blacks was probably explained away with the same sort of thinking. Another factor is that it is easier to demonize those who do not look like oneself, and very difficult for a member of a demonized group to hide his identity or blend in with the majority. There are other factors, I'm sure, but I think these are important ones.

Answer 4

Racism is too vast a word, but for blacks it started when humans began to explore and found different people and started to call them inferior to themselves. Whites started what is called the " Academic Racism " against blacks saying that they were inferior to them and from their people started to believe and make stereotypes. Scientist used to be pop culture back in the day and everyone believed what they said. Look up Academic Racism on Wikipedia.org

Answer 5

It is not only hate against black people, it is more like hating the "others" or unknown. Thousands of years ago in Europe they lived in tribes, and each tribe hated the otherone, perhaps because they were a bit different. This is a problem that will solve its selve but it takes time

Answer 6

I can't speak for the world. As for my white self, I don't hate them as a rule. I am leery of and have been mildly victimized
by what I feel is vindictiveness by some blacks who view me
as the white race that has historically abused blacks. If I help
them vent; fine. Get er done and lets move on.

Answer 7

I think your living in your own world.. I'm not a racist person but the one thing I hate to hear is its because I'm black isn't it.. That is the most stupidest thing ever.... There is racism for whites too, other races and gays. .. Believe it or not... For years I was with a black man and I got more rude comments from black woman then white woman or men.. Comments like cant they stay with their own race.. or white woman always stealing our men... So before you come off with a comment like that think about it... Like I said I love black men so racist I'm not...

Answer 8

I too have no idea as to what you are talking about. Certainly every ethnic group and every group which identifies itself with a locality, have a distrust of 'others," however, this cannot be interpreted as hatred and certainly not hatred for a specific group.

More often than not people (individuals as well as groups) view themselves in negative images and often reflect that view as being done wrong by others or being hated by others. Most people are so involved in their own effort to live that they have little time to waste energy hating others.

Any feelings of distrust of 'others not of our group' begin to be dispelled once people come to know each other as individuals.

Are there people who hate others? Certainly there are such individuals but I suspect such hatred begins with lack of confidence within themselves.

Answer 9

It could be based on imperialism. White people were far ahead technology wise then a lot of other countries and felt that they were better than them because of that. And also slavery caused some maybe to feel that they were superior to the blacks. In South Africa the Afrikaaners felt that way probably because they had taken the land away from the Africans and thought them to be weak.

Answer 10

I am unaware of any great worldwide hatred of black people. I am aware of a great many non-whites who hate whites... so I guess you could reverse it. But, no we're not allowed to look at reverse discrimination. I am of the opinion we should drop the BS and just start treating each other as equals.

Answer 11

Detroit riots, LA watts, New Orleans to name a few.
