My point is the likes of Taz, bgrouse, SobieskiSavedEurope, abu afak or dfens have said vile shit about black people.You reported my post and it even defended MLK.
You just didnt like me calling out your racist murder supporting ilk.
You want to help racism ? Well here's what you have to do and it's hard.
1) Admit it:
Admit that you are racist and admit that it's the truth and the people who benefit from that society are white people like you.
2) Humility
There has to be humility on the part of white people. They have a lot to answer for. Racism won’t go away as long as they are too afraid to just sit down, be honest, and look at why it’s still a problem and actually help find a solution.
No I don’t mean find a solution as in tell black people what to think or think that being nice to a black waitress gets you a medal. I mean genuinely sitting down, looking at themselves and realizing that there’s a whole world out there beyond themselves and their culture and they don’t have the right to pretend the entire universe was reserved for only them.
Humility.
As long as you and other whites just view the situation as a case of angry black people instead of viewing things from a perspective that does not favour the privilege you (deep in side) are too scared to lose, you won’t have that “Kumbaya” you keep asking for.
3) Educate yourself
Read up on racism on your own, in books and on the Internet.
4) Broaden your experience:
But only after the first three steps. Go alone to events and places where most people are not white – not as a tourist but to break out of your limited white-bread world.
5) Take action
When someone says something racist, point it out, even if it is your friend or your mother. Coming from you as a white person it will have a much bigger effect .
Now are you prepared to do all that ?
Because if you're not then why are you sending me personal messages ?
