University of Delaware: All whites are racist

My good man if there is one thing that I will not stand for, it is racism from any nationality or colour. It is high time we accepted that a persons colour does not dictate their social destiny. We are well into the 21st Centurary yet we are stil blighted by our ancestors and they way in which they treated certain members of the world community.

You may or may not know but the first slave ships from africa were started by a Scottish family as a way of making money off very cheap labour. We live with aftermath even today. I wish people could rise up, break off their ancestoral shackles and become the people they have the potential to be. All it takes is grit, determination and a belief that it can be done.

Please do not be offended, I do not mean it to be so. It just frustrates me that colour is an issue today in our world.

I here you man. Even in this country we get caught up with things that have a detremental affect on our community.

I personally think that too much is made of a 'black persons achievements'.

now i hope i get this right because it is not meant in a racist manner in any way.

We have a yearly awards ceremony similar to the MTV awards, it is called the MOBO awards, Music of Black Origin. Now on the face of it, yeah cool I can buy into that, reggae, hip hop, rap all them good things, enjoyed by millions, the world over.

Now if we were to truely eliminate racism we in this country would not have this type of award. It frustrates me that someones colour has to be involved in the making of the show. Why the not the music of african origin.

Surely if we are to truely emalgemate as a society we have to cast asside all of our phobias regarding colour and race.

I don't know the answers but surely by elimnating he stautus of colur from everything we can make a start.

Well, to go with my argument...if the playing field were level, and all people were valued...then there would be no need to have the "black this", or the "ebony" that....because people would get props based on the merits.
But until then...if we can't get props from the establishment (read: white establishment) then we'll give it to ourselves.

What kind of props do you expect from the next Establishment -- you know, the Brown Establishment that'll own the house here about 30 years? :dunno:

You hate brown people or something? racist.

Isn't Condoleeza Rice black? Clarence Thomas? Colin Powell? Barrack Obama?

I agree that all people with a lighter skin pigmentation naturally are better, smarter, faster, brighter, stronger, superior, more intuitive, and perceptive and wonderful and gracious, and humble and kinder and happier and funner and wittier, and well simply better...

I don't understand you because you can't spell...and you don't care. Now that's not only "sad", but trifling.

i hope this is satirical!

I've never owned a slave, or was a slave, I didn't wander forty years in the desert after getting chased out of Egypt, I haven't burned any witches or been persecuted by the Turks and neither have you, so shut up already.

Everyone is racist. I am, and so are you. There is a healthy level of racism and an unhealthy level. Hate crime and other race driven legislation are part of the problem and only serve to perpetuate animosity between races. You can't legislate morality or personal beliefs.

this sort of stupidity is embarrassing in a culture that is supposedly based on freedom and the rights of all humanbeings to freedom and liberty.

The fact that the university of delaware made a curriculum with the first two words being "All whites" makes them as racist as anyone.
(Generalization)+(Race)=Racism
