I don't believe that people understand what exactly RACISM is.
I've never heard of a little white girl not being allowed a job at the boutique she wants to work at but we hear all the time of black men being unrightfully imprisoned for having sex with consent with a white girl.

I'm sure that "black people" joke around and poke fun at crackers but DO WE NOT DESERVE THAT?
Did we not wipe your ass, pick your cotton, raise your ****ing CHILDREN?
For hundreds of years you got to laugh at us, so let us have our fun.
Are you working the fields for us?
No so shut the **** up.

My back is hurting but I cant hold this laugh in.

Racism, by sociological definition, includes an element of power.

Until black people in this country are enslaving white people or holding back their economic and political opportunity because of the color of their skin, then "reverse racism" is not a real problem.

Actually this couldn't be further from the truth. You're describing discrimination. White people in America will probably never experience discrimination but racism can be experienced by anybody whether they're the dominant culture or not.

It was just a random discovery. I click on last fm links sometimes to see people's tastes, but this particular one was pretty shocking. I shared with a friend, he also thought it was rather racist.

Are you serious? Based on your past posts, I honestly don't know.

As if you were one of those people hundreds of years ago.

No, hun. That's the other way around.

Racism is a prejudice. Discrimination is the loss of goods, services, etc. because of a prejudice.

Until everybody takes a sociology class, we're never going to have an intelligent conversation about this topic.
