I’m black and I grew up thinking this because I heard people say it. When I got older I challenged that thought. We can’t just make up a different definition of racism and make it suit our beliefs. By definition anyone can be racist.
@David Guez White Americans can figure out their European lineage very easily by looking a few generations back. Our ancestors were all stolen and forced to be here, so we've lost track of a lot of our ancestral roots. "Black," exists because "Black," people share experiences with each other in America. White Americans share nothing but their skin color and a history of racially charged oppressiveness. We acknowledge each other as "brother," and "sister," because we're all in this together and being a family is the best way to be sure we get through it.
@David Guez How did you misquote me three times? Also, we're talking about AMERICAN slavery, AMERICAN oppression, and AMERICAN racism. Poor white Americans were not oppressed because they were WHITE, they were oppressed because they were POOR. African American slaves were slaves because they were BLACK, and yes they were sold by "other Africans," but it wasn't out of betrayal. They were sold as prisoners of war because the tribes weren't exactly friendly with one another. When we discuss Black Americans, we are discussing 400 years of systemic oppression that has almost exclusively, and disproportionately affected Black and Brown people and communities.
@David Guez No one thinks ALL white people were slave owners, but ALL white people are immune to the repercussions of slavery, and have benefitted from a system that gave us super-power status. They have benefitted in that white men are never considered savages, or beasts, or animals, or anything less than human. They are considered full fledged humans without a second thought, while Black people don't get that same luxury, even the wealthiest and most affluent among us being subject to racist violence and discrimination that white people don't at all experience as a result of their race.

If you think racism was created to benefit 'whites' you sir are the dumbass. If I was my best friend...I'd be dead. My parents would have both been Irish. My surname was Sills. We grew up in the same hood. His little brother and I were in the same grade. Our little sisters are in school pics together from jk to 8. My sister went to a different high school for gifted kids. Brian is dead. Brian was in the same Socioeconomic bracket as me. We exemplify how literally nothing has changed. Me... black. The slave. Him Irish. The hireling. Google up the second stanza of the American anthem. Its author was who racism was created to benefit. It wasn't me...a black. Or Brian... A white. Specifically. A poor Irish Mick. Your TSN turning point would be a little incident called Bacon's Rebellion. Add that to the list of shit they forgot to teach. Want a few more? Black suffrage post slavery. MLK should have never existed. Blacks were voting post slavery during Johnson's reign, the first time Congress ever overrode a president. Another? Mansa Musa. You think Jefferson would have said what he did when he wrote the Notes to Virginia about blacks? One black poet had him make a feeble assed recant of some of the racist shit he spewed. Clearly he had no idea who Musa was. Prior to the internet... Did you? Want more? Christopher Columbus. Look how many white people are defending statues of this rapist and murderer, not realizing that the man never discovered America because he never set foot on American soil. That would be Americos Vessputti or however you spell his damn name I go by memory not Google sorry. So... Don't bother attacking me personally... just address what I say.

@Moist White on AsAm racism tends to be more passive aggressive than overt. You get "put in a box" with preconceived stereotypes. It's why Asian men internet forums give an awfully toxic/incel vibe. If society tells you you aren't manly enough, you'll express frustration on the internet with other frustrated men. For the women in our cohort, they regularly deal with men who see them as an object. You'd think, "cool! You have hordes of men into you!" But it's actually dehumanizing and creepy. That's from what the women in my family told me.

@@KnzoVortex Go back twenty years and this wouldn't be an issue. The new/alternate definition of racism started gaining ground only recently. It was originally invented by schools of thought in sociology, gained traction with millennial college students who then went on to spread it's popularity through their credentials as academics. Now, these people are paid thousands to tell others they are inherently racist for being white, regardless of their own beliefs or prejudices, or lack thereof. The vast majority of the people in this country haven't been a part of this development, however - which is why we are now left with a lot of confused uneducated people getting into arguments with an angry minority of educated people.

Actually no, both statements are very naïve and ignorant. Anyone can be racist and likely anyone saying they aren't a racist have done something racist in their lifetime.
The only definition of racism that holds across the board is the last one he gave. Racism is hatred based off of race/ethnicity.

By the structural/govt definition the girl from the movie used or the politician guy give its true that black people can't be racist. BUT thats definition doesnt define the word fully

So, if the Grand Wizard of the KKK (the most prominent racist in America) traveled to Africa, the moment he stepped off the airplane he would no longer be racist? Because people of his color don't hold the power there? So the definition of racism depends on your location, not your beliefs?
Roger Smith Yes. You can extend this reasoning to the idea of White Privilege also. White Privelege is defined as the people in positions of power all have the same skin color, and people of that skin color are treated respectfully by the police and shop keepers, and photographs of in the history books past great leaders have that skin color too. Evidently Japanese people in Japan enjoy White Privilege. And so does every Black person in Nigeria, and Chinese in China, and Indians in India, etc.

Bill Baldwin by saying “black people cannot be racist” implies that a black person is incapable of being/doing something because of their race, which is racist. Racist towards non blacks as it suggests that they can have that bad trait while black cannot, and racist against blacks as it would suggest that black people are incapable of having a personality trait among their own due to their race.
Bill Baldwin it’s technically not the same due to that ones a phrase and the other a word, and someone may argue that words deemed racially offensive aren’t offensive if it’s not meant to be offensive, an example being that saying “that ***** Joe is a really cool guy” is far better than saying “blacks don’t deserve human rights and they should serve their superiors”, now I’m not saying I 100% support that argument but I will say I understand it

I suspect they in fact do understand what the word 'racist' means. Nobody wants to be labelled as racist because we are all aware of bigotry based upon one's skin colour is wrong, yet they still hold racist opinions.

that's a question I asked a few months ago with someone who believed black people can't be racist.

You're speaking to a brick wall. The people using these arguments aren't ignorant to these facts... They have an AGENDA. Explaining this to them is like explaining the importance of the mailman to a dog.
NJOverclocked I live your siege videos. I love you a whole lot more to learn that your politically educated. I hope your a conservative as well because then I’d probably nut. Siege on
NJOverclocked what facts? There were absolutely no facts, no case studies, no proof to debunk the title other than referencing the dictionary and context sentence structure. I don't understand how people can present an argument and show absolutely no proof as to how black people CAN be racist.
Segregation still exists today in the form of people wanting to stick to people like themselves, it's the reason there are black neighborhoods and white neighborhoods (This is not entirely true for the US because of past systemic racism, but it's common in Europe with immigrants.)
"Look it up in the white folks dictionary, how could I be racist? " Am I the only one seeing the mental gymnastics to make this logic fit? Looked up the definition, and by definition of the " white folks dictionary", you can be racist. there is no footnote that says a race is exempt from this...
Michael Levis hey I have the white dictionary on my smartphone and you my friend are racist it says in my white dictionary that Michael Levis is a racist
So according to them, if they act racist we can't call them racist we have to label them with another word so what they're saying is that they don't want to be treated equally or the same as everyone else. They want a word just for them. So racism is systematic racism. I guess black privilege is being able to make up any imaginary definition to any word to use it an argument so they never lose lol idk I'm confused.
HERE is why this “because of power structure” line fails with ME, .. . because I often hear white people getting called “racist” or “white supremacist” for things that DO NOT REQUIRE ANY POWER to do and that people of other races are JUST AS CAPABLE OF, like stereotyping, name-calling or “using a slur”, or telling a joke about someone.
@@ianfindly3257 Plus there are people of all races and colors who are completely broke or otherwise marginalized by society due to mental illness or whatever.

That's what I was thinking when the Paul Mooney clip was being showed. Did he forget that the thing he's describing actually has a word for it? Also, he seems to not comprehend that oppression can be the result/tool of racism, meanwhile racism is the concept that fuels it. Paul Mooney is an idiot. His stand-up is funny, so I wish I never knew he had such a dumb opinion.

@David Guez White Americans can figure out their European lineage very easily by looking a few generations back. Our ancestors were all stolen and forced to be here, so we've lost track of a lot of our ancestral roots. "Black," exists because "Black," people share experiences with each other in America. White Americans share nothing but their skin color and a history of racially charged oppressiveness. We acknowledge each other as "brother," and "sister," because we're all in this together and being a family is the best way to be sure we get through it.
@David Guez How did you misquote me three times? Also, we're talking about AMERICAN slavery, AMERICAN oppression, and AMERICAN racism. Poor white Americans were not oppressed because they were WHITE, they were oppressed because they were POOR.
African American slaves were slaves because they were BLACK, and yes they were sold by "other Africans," but it wasn't out of betrayal. They were sold as prisoners of war because the tribes weren't exactly friendly with one another.
When we discuss Black Americans, we are discussing 400 years of systemic oppression that has almost exclusively, and disproportionately affected Black and Brown people and communities.
@David Guez No one thinks ALL white people were slave owners, but ALL white people are immune to the repercussions of slavery, and have benefitted from a system that gave us super-power status. They have benefitted in that white men are never considered savages, or beasts, or animals, or anything less than human.
They are considered full fledged humans without a second thought, while Black people don't get that same luxury, even the wealthiest and most affluent among us being subject to racist violence and discrimination that white people don't at all experience as a result of their race.

Now, these people are paid thousands to tell others they are inherently racist for being white, regardless of their own beliefs or prejudices, or lack thereof.

Bill Baldwin by saying “black people cannot be racist” implies that a black person is incapable of being/doing something because of their race, which is racist. Racist towards non blacks as it suggests that they can have that bad trait while black cannot, and racist against blacks as it would suggest that black people are incapable of having a personality trait among their own due to their race.
Bill Baldwin it’s technically not the same due to that ones a phrase and the other a word, and someone may argue that words deemed racially offensive aren’t offensive if it’s not meant to be offensive, an example being that saying “that ***** Joe is a really cool guy” is far better than saying “blacks don’t deserve human rights and they should serve their superiors”, now I’m not saying I 100% support that argument but I will say I understand it

in india the so called low caste people(ST and SC) gets jobs easily and are in power yet they think they are oppressed
listen, i don't agree with the video. anyone can be racist, but there's a difference between racism and prejudice. racism is the unequal distribution of power on the basis of race and the sentiment that there is one superior race but prejudice is a preconvieved notion about a certain group of people on the basis of race such as stereotypes. here's a source if you want. www.thoughtco.com/racism-vs-prejudice-3026086
Martin Luther King is rolling over on his grave.
He even said in his 'I have a dream' speech that protesters shouldn't be violent, that black and white people need to work together and stand together, that all men are equal, where people "are not judged by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their character". The fact that these people claim to be following in MLK's footsteps, whilst at the same time participating in anti-white behaviour and discrimination is an insult to his memory and legacy.

"It's okay for black people to say the n word but it isn't for any other because if any other race said the n word it is racist. Regardless off the context in wich it is used" these people think that you cannot do something because of your race. They really like to play the victim and use slavery as an excuse. You are going to get offended by 1 single word just because you look different and my that my ancestors weren't Africans. "some can say it and others cannot" You can say anything regardless of race. Being disrespectfull towards black people because of their race is racism. A word is not racist on itself. Being offended doesn't mean you are right...nor does it give you the right to take away someone's freedom of speech.

Robert S until we start judging people on their actions and NOT their race there will always be racism. From BOTH sides. You are only hurting your cause by generalizing an entire race based off some people's actions.
its sad how many people don't understand the meaning of the word racist
bob Smith I honestly don't believe they really believe that, I think that they profit in many ways by refusing to acknowledge the truth so they continue to do that....and people that are not where they want to be in life like to have someone to blame, this gives them that
I suspect they in fact do understand what the word 'racist' means.
Nobody wants to be labelled as racist because we are all aware of bigotry based upon one's skin colour is wrong, yet they still hold racist opinions. The solution to being racist while avoiding the label is to change the definition of the word so that it can't be applied to themselves.
Mr. Aces that definition has been changed to suit white guilt buddy. Racism is a system. Picture this, 1850 white 7 year old ask his mom why blacks are treated like shit, the mom will always say "thats how things are" or in simple terms, "i didnt make the SYSTEM, I just abide by it"

@@niclasgerlach1463 oh how the turntables (i do not agree with rascism anyone can be rascist and their definition is outright wrong.)
Niclas Gerlach you shouldn’t do that regardless.
@@aaronm8143 He's making a point. Of course he shouldn't, but by the logic of the people in the video, it would not be considered racism, even though it, in any other context, situation, or elsewise would be considered to be racist.
Meanwhile, in Southern Africa, there was a genocide of the white minority under Mugabe and it occurred in Zimbabwe and Rwanda as well. If that isn’t racism against whites I have no idea what is.
"Im not racist, i just wanna hold others to a different standard then myself due to their skin color"
This comment sums up the entire argument
This is a really important discussion that should more widely be, well, discussed.
People are waaaay overthinking this. If you are talking negatively of another person because of their race, you are being racist.
Marcelino Productions yes
K Clark negative... but u tried. Smh
You know the n word is most definitely not derived from negus. It comes from the french word for black.
RelevantGamer where do u think the French got it from? Navies was around hundreds oh years before Europe even developed. So all words goin forward in description once European nations starters comin into Africa came from negus. Ppl don't understand how long language an civilization in African has been around. Negus is a very old title
AR _ it came from Latin
It seems the definition of 'racism' has been confused with the definition of 'oppression'
That's what I was thinking when the Paul Mooney clip was being showed. Did he forget that the thing he's describing actually has a word for it? Also, he seems to not comprehend that oppression can be the result/tool of racism, meanwhile racism is the concept that fuels it. Paul Mooney is an idiot. His stand-up is funny, so I wish I never knew he had such a dumb opinion.
ok so yea i am a racist i am for my people so is GOD HE HATES ESAU AKA SO CALLED WHITES
Romans 9:13 King James Version (KJV)
13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
I don't care what your god says anymore than I care what Spiderman or Zeus says. They're all fictional characters at the end of the day.

good then get ready for slavery
do you believe in justice ?
Your god supports slavery, so what's the point? Exodus 21 is an entire chapter on the rules of owning slaves. I don't support or follow such a barbaric book.
