A Bad Economy Can Make People More Racist

[Master Teacher]

According to white people

black people are unemployed and on welfare

but yet

black people were taking out loans and homes they OWNED, that they couldn't afford

you have to have some kind of job verification in order to get a home

which on is it

this why you can't believe anything white people say

and this point in time they have played semantics so much that they talk in circles

A bad economy makes the majority blame the minority. Italians and Greek are blaming immigrants for their economic woes. South Africans have attacked and killed immigrants from other African countries, Mozambique in particular. In the last month over 1000 Chinese have had to flee Vietnam due to protests over territorial rights and foreign investors. The Chinese in Vietnam have been killed, attacked, and had their businesses destroyed. In the 1992 LA Riots, black and Latinos attacked Korean and Asian owned businesses.

I'm always amused at the time, money, and energy that goes into producing a study that states the obvious. It's the Research Industrial Complex.

The messed up thing is that study only alludes to resources using the model example of jobs, which barely scratches the surface of issues that need to be addressed, simply digging a bit further it's easy to interrupt how systematic racism, manifests itself, jn the form of justice in a court room or by cops.

It still blows my mind that with all the evidence in the world people still think Trayvon Martin started the confrontation with George Zimmerman...

Learned this in my Hate Crimes class. The ones who feel superior never blame themselves, they're always ready to point a finger at someone else they feel are inferior.
