Personally, I feel racism plays more of a part of a tool than a social issue. I'm a white man raised in an area from what I remember as a child, that was decent to grow up in. the races were mixed into the melting pot and all were represented. Now as a grown man I look at where I grew up with outside world experiences from Iraq and Afghanastan and see a mass take over of the Latino population. Stores which were once Win-Dixies are now Las Americas which don't advertise anything in English, a woman checking out in front of me is spending food stamps on ciggarettes while holding her pantless toddler in her arms while wearing Nikes. So from what I gather everyone makes what they want of their worlds, I'm proud to say I have a Black President becuse it shows our nations growth inttelectually. I only see the Racism played on CNN and FoxNews when polotics is tainting the vibe. Don't fall to such levels and raise yourself above your own understanding.

They are not the problem because of their skin color, they are the problem because of their political power, however, it just so happens that the vast majority of these people are in fact whites, but that is only a coincidence caused by the fact that blacks were slaves and whites profited from their slavery and now white families own most of the wealth which gives them that political power which has turned this nation into a plutocracy in which money rules.
But hating them just because they are white is racist, there is no other way to look at it.
