This is a much better example than the one I gave.

Girl please. I was not being rude. We already know your biased stance on your own black race and how you hate us, so stop.

He's not racist, he just doesn't know what he's doing.

Someone will explain to him, he'll make public apology and that's it.

Get over it.

Late to the party on this one.

But thanks BadBitch for schooling people in this thread. Unfortunately, people who are privileged will say "let's move forward", "oh that's just the past"...when in reality these small racial microaggressions further perpetuate stereotypes about African Americans. Whether its intentional or not.

And the effects of blatant racism still affect people today. The past will never be "the past"...our school systems have failed us in this area. When you know better, you do better.

Facts! Facts! Nothing but facts!

This picture happened a couple years ago and he's done this coloring your skin twice. Once with Gandhi, and then Kanye. And no apology or anything.

I mean if he did it once then maybe we could chalk it up to ignorance, but twice? Nahhhh.

Goodbye sis.

Racism is still alive and well towards whites amongst the black population. iIt may not be as strong as before, but it is still very much alive.

Goodbye sis.

These threads are so messy. Anything that has to do with race causes huge fights and separations. What is up with that? We can't just accept the fact that this is extremely offensive and wrong?

The Miss America fiasco was obviously racist
But the George Zimmerman incident was not racist In fact, it was also mentioned that Trayvon was racist towards whites/non-blacks tho Zimmerman isn't even fully white I mean, if Zimmerman were black and did the same thing, no one would be crying racism

Racism is still there, but blacks aren't the only ones who face discrimination Whites, Hispanics, Arabs, Asians ALL face racism, too

I just dont understand it.

Why do white people think they have the right to tell people of color what to get offended by and what not to? They have no idea what's its like to be a black person in America and make the most idiotic assumptions as if they can somehow relate. This is sad.

I just pray you guys are under 18 because maybe then the ignorance in this thread would actually make a bit of sense.

He's disgusting. I can't stand the way he thinks about his own people.

Yes, she did, but if I saw her and she looked exactly like lil kim, I would have been amazed.

Just because blacks live in generally poorer places doesn't mean racism is alive If it were a white area with low incomes the schools would face the same problems

[Roberto]

Wait, is he white? Oh my...racist b!tch.

[Cap10Planet]

Not necessarily racist, but definitely ignorant.

Let me avoid this thread. I have to maintain my image.

Why do you think "blacks generally live in poorer places"? Just think about it for a minute.

I just looked up statistics from the US Bureau and yes, blacks generally have the lowest GDPs Not racist, just the facts

But either way, many whites are below the poverty line too, and they suffer the same things that black people and other poor people do when they go to a generally low income school. It's not racism, it's just that the system doesn't work
