Same now...there are racists that still lead this country. Take that little "innocent" joke the Republican Party made about Obama....if he moves in, is it still called the "white house"...

Again, this isn't about using your color as a crutch, it's about the injustices made by the world on the black man and how it affected them generation through generation.

If you are white, you will never understand it. If you are an outsider like me, you STILL won't understand it, but it might be easier. Don't judge them until you have lived in their shoes, in their color. Hatred is pased on from generation through generation and it hasn't been that long since blacks were still inferior legally.

The only problem with that is that it's now politically correct to commit acts of so-called "reverse" racism. And until everyone is treated equal and racism of any sort is considered inappropriate, then we ensure that racism will not only exist, but in fact thrive. All we're doing now is creating a new group of "victims" and it appears the logic that promotes the process is "two wrongs somehow make a right"
