Racism - A Two Way Street.
163 Answers
Having been labelled on here as a racist, I would deny that claim most fervently for a variety of reasons, although I can easily see how somebody may come to that conclusion.
Racism, in whatever form it takes, needs to be called out, as it is am evil that denies our fellow man the very dignity that we ourselves demand and expect.
Most incidents of racism are directed by whites towards non whites, and therefore gain the headlines and the popular appreciation of the whole subject.
But I declare that racism is a two way street, and that racism in many forms is directed not only towards individual white people or groups of white people, but towards the very institutions and traditions that are part of our accepted way of life, and that such reverse racism, is equally dangerous and also needs to be confronted vigorously whenever it appears under whatever current guise it has adapted.
Do you agree with this, or have any constructive comment to offer?

Just like to pick up on Theland's point that 'most incidents of racism are directed by whites towards non whites'.
That might be true in the UK but what about Pakistan, India, Sri Lanka, and several other countries . People can be the same colour and still have racist tendencies . Racism exists throughout the whole world not just here.

^^^ emmie -I agree.Perhaps when the world began if we had all been the same colour everything would have been different. Instead for some strange reason our Creator separated us into various colours and countries.
It's a bit like the way that wild animals,insects, birds and almost every other creature tends to stick to their own kind.
Bit too deep and meaningful for a Tuesday morning .
