White people can't experience racism because prejudice they face is simply caused by past experiences that POCs have with white people, while prejudice that POCs face is backed up by a history of oppression and racism by white people.
Also, I don't understand why some white people get offended by people calling them out for racism? White people like them are the reason why society will never be truly progressive.

White people can experience racism, because racism is any type of discrimination or prejudice towards a person of a race, regardless of whom is the perpetrator. The notion that the oppressed cannot be oppressors is just illogical. Just like black people experience racism in America, white people experience racism in Zimbabwe or South Africa.
White people like them are not the reason why society will never be truly progressive, it's your type of flawed rhetoric that causes it.
