"Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, for none but ourselves can free our own minds."
Bob Marley
Nice to see when we see any minority become free from the shackles the left wing white patronizing racists put on them.
Why is it that we have to be in mental slavery because we recognize that whites are still practicing racism? Why do some whites push this idea that blacks are only free or inde0endent thinkers when they ignore that there are whites who continue practicing racism? And why are the 2-3 blacks who say what white racists want to hear always highlighted but not the whites who speak out about the continuing racism in the white community? Aren't they trying to bring the races together? So when did racism end and why is it so important that we silence blacks or other people of color from talking about racism, when there are more racists in America than murderers but we won't try stopping people from opposing murder?
Noone says there is no racism, but according to you, including this one your posts come across as all whites are racist. No, most whites are not racist. Maybe go read your posts again. I can hope it might be enlightening.
Apparently you can't read so let me repost my words.

Notice the words in bold? Nothing I said in that post implies that I think all whites are racist. And understand this, it does not matter if not all whites are racists, what matters is the existence of racism. A poll done in 2017 showed that 31 percent of all whites in America still agreed with white supremacist views. That's almost 80 million people or about 1/4 of the US population. So then trying to deflect from the problem by saying that most whites are not racist doesn't move towards eliminating the racism. It show that you must want there to be an amount of racism that blacks must accept. If 31 percent of whites are still racist or agree with racist views, that needs to be reduced to at leas the same .0046 percent of the number of Americans who were murdered in that same year. Most Americans do not kill, but we spare no expense to make certain murder is reduced to as little amount as possible. There is no excuse made for murder and there should be none for racism by whites.
Furthermore a white kid that speaks out against white racism is denigrated by those of your ilk as a kid who hates himself or herself for being white, while a black kid can declare his denial of racism and he is wise beyond his years. That kids denial of racism could get him killed, yet that's what you want blacks to do, while you want white kids to accept that racism is their birthright.
I know what I say when I say it. Learn to read the words, all of them, before you make your assessment. Because those like you shut down at the first mention of white and racist then claim that I hate all whites or think that all whites are racists when I have never made any such statements and on numerous occasions have stated that not all whites are racists. But I am not going to back down on the record of continuing white racism in order to say words that make you fell better about yourself. Work to end the racism in the white community and stop looking for ways to deny the problem.
