Racism is huge now at my school which i am an 11th grade. Its not so much about balcks and whites but now it is about the whites and Mexicans.

I read one the comment where some one said that blacks encourage their 15 and 16 year olds to have children in order to become the majority that's proposterous!!!!!!! you are an uneducated inbisil first of all my mother has always encouraged my sisters and I to get an education and get married before starting a family as well as millions of other blacks I don't know where you get off saying such a thing and all blacks are not lazy i work hard every day and i pay for my own healthcare benefits every race has people that are lazy i also own my own home which was left to me by my hardworking grandparents who are also black and furthermore I am so tired of seeing white crack whores strolling around my neighborhood it's just s disgrace. I don't know where you received your info but you should do more research and I am so tired of racist people the world needs all types of people to make it work we can all gain knowledge from each other

I think racism has turned the other way around. I\'m not white, but for example, college. If I\'m a white american with a 4.0 GPA and an African American (to be politically correct) with a 4.0 GPA and we both apply for the same school, he/she is going to get chosen over me. Why? I really don\'t know, but something\'s up. I never owned slaves, I\'ve never beat a black person, never hit one, and no black man alive has endured slavery or it\'s hardships. I\'m Romanian, my great great....grandfather was killed by Romans and my great great...grandmother was among the many women taken as war trophys. Does that mean that I\'m gonna hate Italians?

As someone who sat on the sidelines through this situation tha micheal chandler freely walked in and made a name for himself by using the infamous "haleys" whose name came from publicity and the rest of the ignorant people in clarendon county. The whole church burning thing was not a matter of the clan or racism, but politics and easy money for higher public officials! Be careful what your read for lies are easily read but truth is seldom told. From someone who is tired of hearing lies being fed to good people!

i think that racist is here but instead of it being visable in a white kkk suit ,it's found to be hiding underneath a suit and tie.Yes, I do agree that some blacks dont like whites just as whites dont like blacks ,but at least blacks are blunt about the situation , but whites hide it!

The situation in Africa never existed back in the days or so they say. Aids was an creation when white scientist experimented on monkeys, and shot the formula in Africans. White people have been creating diseases for centuries, it's no secret, and if you beg to differ. Think of all the experiments that went wrong. Think of Thomas Edison ex. It took him 152 times to create the lightbulb, but he learned 151 ways how not to make the lightbulb. that's an example on how white people experiment too much. Don't get me wrong they've made life far more advanced than what it use to be, but they've also made it worse than it use to be. Africans were alright until Europeans entered their country, and so where the Indians, but with Europeans came plagues those are the facts, it just goes to show y'all are too curious. So the experiment done to the new black generation brain-wash. Now African-americans want to be that, that they are not. Not all but some. When we all should fight for the rights to live in harmony without experimenting on one another because were all brothers by nature, and that of humanity. "So there has to be something different going on to why all this has occured or is it?" The truth is out there. Search within you to find it.

Hi! We live in Brazil and we would like to give you some facts about Brazil. Racisim and discrimanation still exist but a majority of the people make minimum wage R$350 (reias = US$175.00). Cesar's father is a dermotolagist in a public hospital & private and we are unaware of the bleaching cream and have never heard of anyone doing this procedure. People here are less racist than in the US.

No one who posted anything on this site was enslaved. I have never owned a slave and never will. Life is hard for everyone. I don't care if you are black or white. Everytime I hear someone talk about race they say, "Blacks are as good as whites". I agree. What part of special treatment is equality? You don't want to be poor? Stay in highschool and make $7000 more per/year on average. Then save your money and send your kid to college. That's what my grandad did.

i know i already wrote something but it was sort of short so i decided to write more. have you ever watched the video on here? if you havent there is a part where the grand dragon says " we dont burn crosses we light them, burning destroys things" or something like that. i think thats stupid because when they "lit" the churches they destroyed them anyways. Im doin a skool report on the KKK and i found a lot of info that really surprised me.

I think we should all get along with each other.I think some parents should get over the fact that a long time ago you would get the reputation of being a n***** lover. Black people are exactly the same as whites and should be treated that way by everyone. but on the other hand black peole need to get over the fact that they were mistreated, we have no control on that now.

I think "most" of you are lost. Racism is alive and well in America. This is to the person that stated we do not or did not suffer from slavery, only our ancestors. You are in denial, you can no longer hide behind we did do all we said we did. Our land was stolen, do we not still suffer. Our families where torn apart,do we still not suffer from what your people did not allow us to build upon and learn. We are not paid the same wages for the sames days work in the same profession wearing the same title. You can pick and choose what you want to remember, some of us choose to see the whole truth. My questions, can you ever be "right?"
