Racism Is Not A One Way Street

Posted: 5/8/2019

We, citizens of Western countries, are fooled on a near daily basis to believe that racism is and has been perpetrated almost exclusively
by whites on blacks (or other, darker skin colors)!

Unfortunately, the truth, as often and as usual, is much more complicated! So is the history of racism! There are significant numbers of blacks who hate whites (slavery is no excuse). Many other pairs of skin colors or backgrounds can be combined who hate each other or vice versa based on racism (e.g. how about Hispanics/Arabs/Indians/Asians/Indigenous who don’t like blacks and vice versa; you get the idea)!

Regrettably, many of those of our contemporaries who wag their fingers
at and accuse others, living and dead, of racism are often the worst
offenders and most ignorant! Their incivility and self righteousness is very contemptible!

Who is behind spreading and promoting this divisiveness and demagoguery in Western countries?
