Ultimately, you are clearly intent on blaming whites for all racism. You largely deny racism existing in other cultures or if there are acts of racism, it’s all American white / Western European fault. American whites did not start trading African slaves. Africans started it and some Africans continue the practice to this day. American whites evolved by stopping African slave trade. But, there is a new modern day form of slave trade.... human sex trafficking with many of the victims being non-white and oppressed by non whites.
I am intent on not giving white Americans a pass for the racism they practjce here right now.
Africans did NOT sell their own people into slavery

Whites did have slaves in Europe and the American whites did not stop the African slave trade. Furthermore American whites evolved by implementing apartheid. And today whites practice aversive racism. There are millions of white sex slaves but the problem is not limited to slavery. The western nations through what they have done due to colonization and modern foreign policy still rob non white nations of wealth, destabilize governments, install puppet leaders to help carry out the will of multi national corporations.

You are not going to guilt me into not holding whites accountable for what they have done and keep doing. Understand that I have studied and researched these things for well over 30 years. So when you make a statement like:
" Ultimately, you are clearly intent on blaming whites for all racism. You largely deny racism existing in other cultures or if there are acts of racism, it’s all American white / Western European fault. American whites did not start trading African slaves. Africans started it and some Africans continue the practice to this day."
That to me shows a pretty simplistic opinion about a complex set of issues. For example how was slavery done in Africa before the whites showed up? And do you not understand that slavery existed in Europe at the same time and in fact exists there today? But my argument does just include slavery and I 'm not talking about events that occurred during the Pleistocene epoch. I'm talking about the modern era and on top of that I have agreed with much of what you have said. But I'm not going to make non whites equally racist as whites. I have not seen a non white country colonize another one. But I have seen severe ethnocentrism and that's just as bad.
Slavery is practiced in African nations to this day! The face of the human traffic oppressor is largely brown,not white. You choose not to hold non-whites equally accountable for current and legacy racism but reality and facts state otherwise.
Oh no, I hold blacks just as accountable. But there is no equivalence between a black person calling an asian a racial slur and electing white racists to make laws. You seem unable to see the difference.
And slavery is practiced in European nations to this day. The face of human trafficking is a rainbow. Reality and facts say that. Reality shows us that Asians sent sex slaves to white America. That Eastern European whites are selling humans also. So the face of that trafficking is not just brown. But in typical white fashion you want to stay stuck on slavery and ignore the legacy of racist foreign polices by whites that are at the root of many of todays worlds problems.
You mention the rainbow and holding non-whites accountable yet in a “yes-but” typical fashion, ultimately, what lies between your ears, it’s always whitey’s fault.
The truth is what lies in me. And the truth is that the root cause of the problems blacks and other non whites face is white racism. Now that doesn't mean I am for any kind of prejudice, but until whites have the capacity to stop imagining a racial symmetry that has never existed, people like you will not understand my position. You will assume just like you are doing now but you will not understand.
Not much truth lies between your ears.
