I'm simply trying to get folks to understand our own passive roles in supporting oppression and how we can change that. 'Sleeping well' when people are being oppressed is a perfect example of white privilege. You don't have to worry about racism because you don't experience it, and you can easily escape any racial discomfort you do encounter occasionally by leaving the room. Racism for black people is a daily experience that is inescapable. They can't turn it off or get away for a while. That's real oppression. And we have the luxury of just going about our day completely ignorant of it if we want to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I'm fine with it. I know my biases and I know what kind of person I am. I sleep well. @Cold War Ditto could be said for 90% of the posters here I would venture to guess. Even at that, you feel the need to throw your shade at people you have no idea what their background is. Kinda presumptive of you if you ask me, fuck, even if you don't.

West African’s musculature provides more explosiveness. They are faster sprinters and higher jumpers. Northern Europeans have an abundance of slow twitch muscle fibers. They’re more powerful and tend to dominate in weight lifting. Northern Europeans are also more susceptible to mental illness. They have much higher rates of suicide. Much of that could be because of their more isolated nature. Yet it’s also speculated that they’re simply more at risk biologically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be like saying parents who don't use drugs will have kids that don't use drugs. Once kids hit a certain age there is all kinds of outside influence. Face it, if you said what you said in your post, in a public setting, you would get crucified. way it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why these patterns of racism have become engrained and institutionalized. It’s tough to come to grips with the fact that parents are idiots and believed in magic. As for the last part...there’s definetly a level of ignorance and magical thinking that acompanies some ideas within the anti-racism movement.

Especially the magical thinking. The best thing you can do to combat racism is to raise kids who are not racist by example... Anything else is just self congratulatory bullshit.

A good place to begin is confronting the use of racial epitaphs. If society can't change something that small, the larger attitudes involved with racism don't stand a chance for change.
