Zone1 Here Are the Real Reasons Why We White People Struggle to Admit That Racism Still Exists

[IM2]

There are members of the white right wing in this forum who claim that racism is over. Apparently they think that because signs aren't up denying blacks of opportunity that it's gone. And it's funny because the people making this claim do so while expressing the same attitudes whites had during Jim Crow.

Here Are the Real Reasons Why We White People Struggle to Admit That Racism Still Exists​

1. White People Must Choose to Extend Our Personal Values towards Racial Issues
When someone calls us as White people out for racist behavior or language, we are almost never being accused of being card-carrying members of the KKK.

Yet so many of us are stuck in a surface level, 1950s conception of racism where we can clearly identify it as wearing White hoods and burning crosses.

But even then, racism was far more complex and insidious.

2. White People Benefit Materially from Racism​

Therefore, most of us have an unacknowledged political and economic stake in maintaining White supremacy.

3. White People Have an Emotional Stake in Denying White Supremacy ​

Because that way, we can avoid dealing with how we’re complicit in its pervasiveness.

4. Working towards Racial Solidarity Means Being Vulnerable​

Because that’s the only way for us to transform ourselves for the better.

Here Are the Real Reasons Why We White People Struggle to Admit That Racism Still Exists - Everyday Feminism

For some of us, it's baffling when white people accuse us of “making everything about race.” Here's the root of that reaction – and why putting down those defensive walls means powerful growth and transformation.

You are correct, racism still exists.

Problem is, racism has always existed and always will exist.

So when does it matter? It matters when it comes to politics. That is it.

Blacks used to be targeted by the powers that be when they wanted free labor, but now it is whiteys turn, as they justify it because they targeted blacks in the past.


Easy, peasy.

When the country first started, the white European male wanted the land for himself, and saw they had superior numbers and weapons to do it, so politically it made sense to target Native Americans via race.

But today, there are more dark-skinned people who are taking over, so politicians hold their finger up to seen which way the winds are blowing, so now it is time to target whitey.

So why must politicians always target using race? Because politics is the art of division. You want to create a group to impose your will over other groups

It has nothing to do with unity and inclusiveness. Politics is humanity at their worst and why racism is as big an industry as ever.

Your fellow white DemoKKKrats openly embrace their racism, this is spot on. Remember, you proudly belong to the party that founded the KKK, Jim Crow laws, segregation, lynch mobs, and virtually all other forms of institutionalized racism. Your own president, who you enthusiastically support, compared black children to roaches, and declared himself the arbiter of who is black and who isn't. You LOVE that kind of racism.

Without the word "white", this would be applicable to all people and would be true. As it stands, it is at best a partial truth and a partial falsehood.

You know how to spot a true racist?
They make EVERY SINGLE THING about race.

You know how to spot race hustlers?
They constantly stir the pot of racism to inflate themselves

If the white wing were to admit that racism exists, they might have to do something about it which is the last thing they want.

Your fellow DemoKKKrats have been openly racist for two hundred years. From the KKK to BLM, you own and LOVE racism.

I see the op found a guilt-ridden white lib giving free shoe shines to black people and is now inflicting him on the rest of us

How predictable

Very few whites deny that racism still exist'. The thing is whites, are more often the victim of racism than blacks.

Your very lucky you can say this negative thing about whites, without being accused of, hating whites and trying to incite violence against them. If whites say something negative about blacks, they are accused of those things.

Whites don't have the option to use their words.
