[QUOTE="EzraIsShy76028, post: 35404, member: 205"] I don't know what else there is to say, but all of what you wrote is 100% correct! A lot of people like to do black and white thinking, where they either think that everything is racist or that nothing is racist at all anymore. But like always, there is a more nuanced middle ground. Of course the world isn't as racist as it was in the past where Black people were slaves and often looked at as subhuman just for being born Black. But that doesn't mean that racism has been completely eradicated entirely since then. But yeah. If people think that racism towards Black people doesn't exist anymore then they must either be blind or purposefully obtuse. Not to mention biased view points. Of course White people will think that racism towards Black people doesn't exist, because they don't have the experience of being Black. The correct course of action would be to take Black people's thoughts and feelings into consideration instead of just White people's. [/QUOTE]
