People of Color can't be racist against white people, only prejudiced.

At its most basic level, you can understand racism as prejudice + power. When that power element is lacking, as it is for people of Color, then it isn't racism.


This is a stupid ass ill formed argument. Racism at its most basic level is a belief of one's race superiority over the other...

I hate this smart dumb argument I truly do. :smh:

That is an element of racism, but when you study the historical development of racism, it is clear that power is a central element. The ability to force a stratified state of affairs upon people based on their "race," which in and of itself is a social construct.

Both the concept of race and racism developed alongside capitalism, to enable its development. It is further maintained to divide the working-class, so that the ruling class can continue exploiting everyone and extracting resources from communities and nations.

If you disagree, please trace for us what you believe to be the historical development of race and racism.

i don't agree with her point. She lists terrible, racist acts, and ignorant acts of the past that were wrong then in their actions as her basis of being hypocritical of rioting in Ferguson? People are saying it's wrong and she counters by listing acts that were wrong then as well.

*sees thread title about how to school a racist white person*

*doesn't see any white people in the OP getting schooled*

So, I'm to understand that one should post a rant on Instagram? Do racist white people follow her on there or did she forget to "@" someone? Is there more to it? :patrice:

Thanks for the info.
Hey thats cool, just dont go around using words and phrases so loosely.

That's what those europeans, specifically the English do. They say one thing, do another thing, and apologize for another. Its one of the reasons why the English language has so many words. Its just many different ways to bullshyt you. So when you go around talking about civil rights hero, he was neither a hero or cared about the civil rights until it became politically palatable.

If that's what you took from her statement then I don't know what to tell you.

If this has already been posted than my bad:manny:
Fvck schooling racist white people. It's a useless task. We don't have to explain shyt to them.

The better response would to just ignore their dumbasses and focus on what black people can do to help each other out.
