when was the moment you realized white people were pretty much widespread racist pieces of shyt?

[Dont@Me]

I don't remember the EXACT moment, but I remember always trying to explain my experiences of being confronted with racism and even the "coolest" white people that I was once close to would either deny it, get defensive (even when it wasn't them being discussed in the experience), or downplay the incident. After enough of these incidents and coming on here and seeing people say, "ALL white people are racist", I finally went from to .

Since then I've realized that no matter how "chill" these motherfukkers might seem, they will never understand the black experience which makes them absolutely ignorant on our struggles in society almost worldwide and their complicit ignorance makes them oblivious to their own racism.

I grew up hating Indians. How did the Indians come to the Caribbean? The British! I figured that out at 5.

when i was young, I had mixed friends from different races, so I never thought about racism being a problem. I never even thought that it mattered until years after when almost all of my experiences with other people kept leading me to the same conclusion; I'm black, and they are ignorant and have negative and/or absolutely false preconceptions about me.

Open up any history book and you'll get a pretty good idea

Probably college, I'm not talking about racism in theory. I'm talking about real world 80% of white people are racist kind of realism. Even when white are cool with you you never really know if they're looking at you as some kind of conduit to their racial fantasy world; e.g. my token black friend, white girl getting her Scarlet O'hara on, etc.

 

[I Really Mean It]

As their numbers dwindle and obvious demographic changes impose themselves on the global dominance they've enjoyed, white people will become more appreciative of white identity. What we're witnessing of their behavior is correlated with the slide in their prominence. They're beginning to feel like trapped rats, unwanted pests surrounded by walls that offer no escape from the predators on their scent. Trump's white supremacist machismo is part of their last gasp, a hail mary of spectacular failure that'll make them feel secure for a short while before the demographic nightmare they're avoiding becomes inescapable.

When I started learning about Jim Crow in 5th grade. Didn’t notice the race of my friends or race period before age 10. After learning about those 4 little girls in that church, amongst other heinous and demonic atrocities against my people, never looked at or trusted another white person in my life. I believe white people are born inherently evil and racist. All of them. No exceptions

Slavery was enough to convince me.

First semester in college. I became socially aware of the destruction and corruption the white men constsntly projects on minorities. I dont hate white people but i dont trust any of them

In college, in a social science class where affirmative action was brought up. The vile at which everyone spoke on the topic. You'd have thought that AA was personal attack on them.
