Agree. While I pray I will never be raped, if that happens G-d forbid, I hope it’s by a white thug as opposed to a black thug. I will have a much better chance of justice against the white.

I know that much about you. You CAN'T have traveled outside the USA and think as ignorantly as you do.

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.
