Yes. You are a victim of confirmation bias. You find racism where there is none. Does racism happen? Yes. To all races. Blacks are murdering whites at 10 times the rate whites are murdering blacks. I'm talking ratios, that takes into consideration that whites are most the population. So will you deal w a dumb hick who calls you racist words in your life? Yes. Will you not get a job because your skin color? No. Will you get denied schooling or opportunities due to skin color? No. Itll happen somewhere. There's still kkk members.

The difference is knowing that were all going to deal with hardship in life and unfair things will happen to us due to race or sex but they're rare. Ive been the victim of violent hate crimes myself. Had to move to be safe. The media blows up anything they can because racist black culture eats that stuff up.

That's why when the white kid was shot by the white cop holding a Wii remote serving a warrant by herself got off free and you dont hear about it.

That's why when those police were in that white man's back yard looking for someone else, they caved his head in and they got off free and you dont hear about it.

You're brainwashed and bias. And if youd like to talk statistics like conviction rates and likelyhood of being shot vs whites, I'll be glad to explain that to you as well.

First off I don't need you to explain anything to me. Especially not something you have never and could never personally experience. You are incapable of explaining to me what you have no personal knowledge of.

Racists words are not what has caused African Americans distress in this country. If racists word were African Americans only problem with racism, there would be an immediate worldwide celebration were that true. It's racist actions that African Americans have suffered from that effects their status and condition in America.

Speaking of statistics, every metric shows African Americans suffer a different reality in America than do whites. African American unemployment is normally about double that of whites. African Americans receive harsher sentences for the same crime than do whites. African Americans are charged higher mortgage rates than whites with lower credit scores and income. African Americans use drugs at the same rate as whites, but are arrested at a much higher rate and receive much longer sentences. Blacks are more likely to receive the death penalty. The list goes on and on.

Racism was at the foundation of the building of America. Christian colonizers could only excuse enslaving other humans by claiming they were subhuman. So dehumanizing Africans became part and parcel of the culture. Billions of dollars have been spent to dehumanize black Americans. It never went away. If you think it did what made it go away?
