For many white people, the “definition of racism” offers them a safeguard so that they no longer feel the need to check their privilege. It acts as a last resort when backed into a corner by logic and reason. It is their final safety measure to ensure that they still win the conversation, even though this is not the type of conversation to be won. It is for those white people that I have listed below some of the many reasons why the “definition of racism” is wrong. Dictionaries provide a simplistic view of words. While dictionaries are a great reference for people who have no prior knowledge on a word, concept or idea, they are not the best for conducting and controlling discussion. Racism is such a complex idea that it would be impossible to describe every aspect of it in a basic 101 way. Dictionaries should instead be used as a starting point for learning, leading to more thorough research and investigation, rather than being a final and definitive argument as to why white people can experience racism. Dictionaries are written and edited by white men. The majority of writers for popular and academic dictionaries have been white men. In the western world, as there are systems in place which privilege white people, it is not surprizing to see that the definition of racism put forward by white men is inaccurate. They are socialized to believe that the racism people of color experience is in any way comparable to the “racism” white people experience (i.e. being called out for perpetrating and upholding white supremacy). There is simply no credibility in white people defining racism. Racism is systemic. If we look at the word, ‘racism’, we see that it is made up of ‘race’ and the suffix ‘-ism’. This suffix is used to denote a systemwhich, at least in the western world, is a system of white supremacy. This clearly differentiates racism from prejudice. Anyone can be prejudiced toward anyone else, regardless of their race. People of color can certainly be prejudiced toward white people. However it is not racism because there is no larger system in place which oppresses white people. These are just some of the reasons why the “dictionary definition of racism” is invalid. If you or someone you know ever feels the need to screenshot the “definition of racism” and use it in an argument, just remember that the definition of ketchup says that it is spicy. http://affinitymagazine.us/2017/02/19/dear-white-people-your-dictionary-definition-of-racism-is-wrong/ Go get high dude.. youre being very boring...

I don't give a fuck how many "steps" the white man could take. No matter what, race will always be a issue. and whitey will always be at fault. Especially when you got people like yourself fueling the fire. good job

sling snot and the aged chrome dome guy also

I'm surprised he didn't drop to his knees in tears. The white guilt is strong with this aged, chrome dome clown

Really? Better you than me I suppose. lol

Not a fucking peep from the asshole libs in here. Fuck them. most corrupt political party that ever graced this earth.

right? Clinton WILL be president..Looks like he ended up on the bottom of this cycle.

As Hillary Clinton begins a book tour to promote her 2016 campaign autopsy “What Happened,” video has begun to swirl online of a 2014 interview between her and CNN’s Christiane Amanpour to promote her previous book, “Hard Choices.” During the exchange, Clinton had some tough words for the children of illegal immigrants, including waves of unaccompanied minors coming in 2014 — telling Amanpour that the United States was a nation of laws and that they probably had to go. “We have to send a clear message, just because your child gets across the border, that doesn’t mean the child gets to stay,” said Clinton “So, we don’t want to send a message that is contrary to our laws or will encourage more children to make that dangerous journey.” “So, you’re saying they should be sent back now?” Amanpour inquired. “Well, they should be sent back as soon as it can be determined who responsible adults in their families are, because there are concerns whether all of them should be sent back,” said Clinton. “But I think all of them who can be should be reunited with their families.” You can read the full exchange courtesy of CNN here. The comments came as part of a broader immigration discussion in which Clinton reiterated her support for comprehensive immigration reform. Per the transcript: AMANPOUR: Such an important issue. And what about right now? As we’re seeing thousands of children come across — CLINTON: Oh. AMANPOUR: — shantied off into makeshift shelters. CLINTON: It’s horrible. AMANPOUR: Hard choice — let them stay in the United States or send them back? CLINTON: Well, two quick points. One, the numbers are increasing dramatically. And the main reason I believe why that’s happening is that the violence in certain of those Central American countries is increasing dramatically. And there is not sufficient law enforcement or will on the part of the governments of those countries to try to deal with this exponential increase in violence, drug trafficking, the drug cartels, and many children are fleeing from that violence. AMANPOUR: Should they be able to stay here? It’s safer. CLINTON: Well — it may be safer but that’s not the answer. I do not — AMANPOUR: Should they be sent back? CLINTON: Well, first of all, we have to provide the best emergency care we can provide. We have children 5 and 6 years old who have come up from Central America. We need to do more to provide border security in southern Mexico. AMANPOUR: So, you’re saying they should be sent back now? CLINTON: Well, they should be sent back as soon as it can be determined who responsible adults in their families are, because there are concerns whether all of them should be sent back. But I think all of them who can be should be reunited with their families. And just as Vice President Biden is arguing today in Central America, we’ve got to do more. I started this when I was secretary to deal with the violence in this region to deal with border security. But we have so to send a clear message, just because your child gets across the border, that doesn’t mean the child gets to stay. So, we don’t want to send a message that is contrary to our laws or will encourage more children to make that dangerous journey. AMANPOUR: We’re going to go on to a different topic. And this I’m going to read because it’s from Tumblr, who we’re partnering with. So, here we go. Needless to say, Clinton’s tune changed quite a bit during her 2016 run and her post-candidate career. Just a year after her interview with Amanpour, she became a vocal immigration champion — specifically voicing her support for DACA. https://www.mediaite.com/online/what-happened-video-emerges-of-hillary-clinton-saying-illegal-immigrant-children-have-to-go/
