mac Stanford We (whites) are uncomfortable talking about race because doing so honestly often carries serious social and occasionally economic repercussions. The narrative is that everything is our fault, that all we have is unearned, and that we are always wrong. And to question this risks social and career suicide. So instead of being open about it, we ignore it and avoid it.

People can be racist without even realizing it by reinforcing racist social and political structures, voting for racists, holding racist stereotypes in their subconscious without even knowing (locking the car doors or feeling uneasy when a black person walks by but not acting the same around a white one). There are levels to racism. Not every racist is just a white man in a white robe

the things they kept repeating "I didn't know I was white" "I didn't have to think about race" "I don't think of myself as white" is the privilege of it! That right there. Individuality, or the ability to look at oneself outside of a racial context, is only available to white people. That is because whiteness is perceived as a default and anything outside of that is other. And there is NO availability to look beyond that, as a person of color, until the white majority (on a systemic and societal level), are willing to see color as an adjective and not a noun.

@@jr303official I honestly don’t think we can approach this the same way as say a Black person, or Asian person, and Hispanic and Latinos are not all classified as White race in America, that has a lot to do with ethnic makeup and colorism plays a role in that as well. Many Hispanic and Latinos do not share the privilege of being White in this country and would classify themselves as a POC, as well. Let’s be honest many POC have a different plight of racism in this country. We get unequal treatment, and in every race the more melanated/dark you are the worst the prejudice is that you receive. I am African American, Mexican (my dad is a Mexican citizen, I can share dual citizenship) and Cherokee. I also know I have Spaniard and Italian descendants, so I have European ancestry like most Hispanics and Latinos and some Blacks. If I was classifying my race in the U.S. I always choose mixed race when applicable, but if I can’t I mark Hispanic/Latino and Black. Many Hispanic/Latinos do not mark white either way. As someone who looks almost 100% Hispanic, but have half a family who are African Americans that have slave ancestors, I am living a completely different and privileged life than they are. I recognize it everyday and have directly heard the racism told to my face, as though it wasn’t known to them what race I was. The color of my skin and my European features made it comfortable for the prejudice to come out. I cannot begin to explain the amount of covert racism I have heard mainly from the White race, but some from Hispanics/Latinos, and even from Middle Eastern people, who are also confused by how I look, and how comfortable they are sharing their racist thoughts with me. It’s an awakening when you stand from a place of privilege and I would never deny that I have. We don’t all share the same experiences, and some are made the enemy more than others, but some are faced with unfair prejudice more than others, and undeniably the common theme is racism hurled at blacks. Have I also received direct racism from looking as Hispanic as I do, yes! But, not nearly as much as the covert and sometimes overt racism directed at blacks, whether it’s a proud display or disdain openly or as spoken quietly in a shameful manner, it’s obvious to me that it happens a lot. Should we have open conversations and dialogue about race? Yes, we should! But we should never deny that there’s unequal racial discrimination happening in this country, and it’s happening more prevalent to the most melanated groups in our society, which of course is colorism, but that goes back to outright racism towards the Black race. The reason darker people in racial groups are outcasted is because their proximity to blackness. So again, we can try to educate and talk through the issue of racism, but understand your privileged situation and acknowledge that there are some who will never change their beliefs and prejudices that are bred in their values and traditions. That will keep the conversation going for generations to come.

This pointing the finger thing is only making our world worst for us and our children. We have to talk about things. Millennials have to talk about it. We grew up together and was fed the theory of equality and we believed it and now we are adults and see that things are not what it used to seem. So now we have to make our past a reality and make our world the place we thought it would be.

The problem is that you may see/experience many things that would lead any ordinary person to develop, over time, a racist mindset. (Seeing black people throwing trash on the street, black people making loud noises on a public bus, a group of mixed people screaming/being wild in a public space, black students disrespecting teachers). Even if the root cause of these issues is not race, experiencing these things can lead any normal person to want to avoid certain areas, certain groups, certain situations -rightfully so.

Pablo Battaglia 'white' isn't even a scientific term 😂 scientifically there is no analytical or biological basis for that illogical definition of 'races' 👎 'white' isn't a term in genetics, any actual ethnicity can display African depigmentation genes 😂 the eldest Natives anywhere are of African bloodlines by tens of millions of years. The eldest Hispanic (ancient Denisovan African) lineages are at least 400k years old. Africans and Hispanics have the eldest ethnicities by far and lead modern culture by far. Africans and Hispanics have modern monuments that are 10-60k years old and have had 'modern faces' for at least 300k years 😂 while African depigmentation genes can be displayed by any actual ethnicity, African depigmentation genes didn't flourish until 5-8k years ago through young Asians (Neanderthal Africans) and ancient Hispanics (Denisovan Africans) 😂😂 Race means African physical traits, it has never meant ethnicity (origin and culture). Not one ethnicity can claim any specific traits since humans are 100% African, 99.9% identical and inherited everything.. There has never been a homogeneous ethnicity, no ethnicity can claim any biological traits and we inherited everything from our one African family tree [AAPA]. Humans are not grouped by biological traits. "You and I, in fact everyone all over the world, we’re literally African under the skin; brothers and sisters separated by a mere two thousand generations. Old-fashioned concepts of race are not only socially divisive, but scientifically wrong." "Explain that genetic evidence shows all humans are 99.9% identical and do not fall neatly into physical categories some people call races. The differences among us-like skin color and hair texture-evolved as humans adapted to different environments. They account for less than one tenth of one percent of our genetic makeup." www.nationalgeographic.org/activity/all-africans-under-the-skin/

I was a little bit uncomfortable and upset about getting classified by difference of certain trait of mine. I could not find the reason is. Like my case, the standard of racism is too diverse to even deal with, but you guys brought about it and made this fascinating video. I am really thankful seeing these kind of contents in youtube.

To us all Caucasians (Scandinavians, Mediterraneans, Middle Easterns etc) are different shades of "white", then you have "black people" and "Asian" (meaning Koreans, Chinese, Japanese, Philippines etc). This whole connection of politics with skin colour is like the flipped coin of the racism of the past.

@John Burton by distinguishing whites don't owe black people you're ironically categorising people according to their race which is against your point. There just needs to be an understanding that as a white guy I don't have to get targeted or worry about getting killed by police. White guys do get killed or targeted but there's never the question of being race. If a black guy walks up to you at night in an alley you're going to be scared. Why is that? What preconception is that based on? Because race is around all of us and we don't understand eachother. So empathy and compassion goes a long way. Rather than cry about how blacks need to get themselves in better positions I challenge you, be the change you demand. Individualistic change always happens before collective change, then everything follows.

Wow, privileged, eh? I will never apologize for being white. I grew up homeless, eating out of trash cans, I've seen things that are hard to talk about and ended up with PTSD due to my childhood but I'm white...so I'm privileged! I am lucky though, a kind man found me and took me half way across the country to give me a new live. We are now married(8 years), have two beautiful children, have a working car and a house. This is heaven. If people would STOP being so bitter for what they don't have and blaming everyone else, and start appreciating what they do have, the world would be a much better place. What I'm trying to say here is; skin color has nothing to do with quality of life. It's the choices you make that make all the difference.

I came accross a racist Latino crew who would jump white and black people who would come around their music spots.. those people broke my friends jaw, they boot stomped another at his own house and I got jumped by girls and guys by the same people and I'm a girl and there are others I know of too.. this is what happens when you think a little racism is okay. I met a cop who would go on racist rants and no matter what I told him about racism being wrong he would just say "white people are worse".. he was Latino, racist and a cop and he actually had shot the wrong person once before, but he believed it was okay because that guy happened to be a wanted criminal anyway so the cop was "lucky". A wee racism goes along way accross a whole group of people and wether you are aware of it or not...

"The White Liberal differs from the white Conservative only in one way; the Liberal is more deceitful, more hypocritical, than the Conservative. Both want power, but the Liberal is the one who has perfected the art of posing as the Black Man’s friend and benefactor and by winning the friendship and support of the Black Man, the Liberal is able to use the Black Man as a pawn or a weapon in this political football game, that is constantly raging, between the Liberals and the Conservatives. The American Blacks are nothing, but a political football." -Malcolm X, 1963

As an outsider (new to the US culture and construction of race), I'm always fascinated by how "whiteness" has been constructed in the US. For instance, all the people talking on this video have different skin shades and varied features. Some look Mediterranean, some look nordic, some frankly look middle eastern! This broad concept of "white" has been deliberately constructed to keep the power within a single group (mostly in ex-British colonies) but this wouldn't work in Europe or even Latin America!

Nothing wrong with loving your own people and wanting to preserve them!

There's so many things that make up someones identity. I find it attractive and intriguing to know what someone's culture truly is ex: Spanish, Haitian, Scottish, Greek ect. I have a hard time understanding why anyone would want to be classified as simply white or black when they have so much more to offer. The whole categorizing scam is just a means of control for large populations, a way to separate and ease the minds of those who find comfort in categorizing their lives.

Todd Whitaker You're right yet not exactly. It's a half-hearted cliche in our society, but we are all members of a single human race. In Africa and elsewhere, you have unique orders we can call ethnic groups or populations. 'West African' is only a regional designation, there are plenty of distinct ethnic groups in the region though. Pygmy is a description used for specific ethnic groups in Africa. Semitic is merely the name for usually a language family, academically. Many different ethnic groups are "Semitic," like I'm African American and I'm a modern Indo-European. Bantu and Nilotic are like Semitic, the labels are used for language families but potentially also certain cultural trends. They span many distinct ethnic groups of people too.

Skin color isn't in our control for the most part,but our behavior and kindness towards others IS in our control.Choose to accept and love and ignore the drama all these people trying to cause in our life's. Choose to embrace the fact that we're all here on earth and it's a blessing we all get to experiance. Let peace prevail & hate dissolve.

(I'm Nigerian born in America) The problem is not white people. The problem is societal standards, media, and the effects of slavery and segregation. Many black americans are usually set up for failure and born to fail which is the saddest thing. It has nothing to do with white people, but the bad lifestyles from blacks due to the repercussions of the past causes a big cultural difference between the two races (If you think about it, the only way races in the US will get along is if cultures are combined but that's asking for a lot). Also, in my opinion, many black americans/white people barely interact with each other which is why there is such a huge disconnect and racial divide (but this is also due to how coincincidentally races are separated in states/cities). In the private school that I went to, my closest friends were all white and some black, but the black people were usually 10x more racist (some white people were also blatantly racist in front of teachers and nothing would happen and that's where the advantage of being white comes from sometimes, but the whole white privilege think is overboard in my opinion.) SOME AAs usually are a lot meaner/judgemental/racist/bad people but this is due to where they grew up and the bad cultural aspects of AAs which is due to again, stuff from the past. when some of the white people are they have an advantage because they are seen as better/or given the benefit of the doubt. This is my point of view from all of this. Lastly, I think people just need to start getting more comfortable with people different than you, and stop making race the biggest deal in the world because it does not even exist.

I just wanted to know what it's like to not have to be black, and I still can't comprehend what it's like. I know what it's like to be straight and male and see the general vicinity of where they're coming from, but the difference based solely on race is so completely out of scope of my personale relatable experience that their personal conception of race is even more esoteric to me now than it ever has been. I'm glad that I'm not usually perceived as straight, even though I am, and though I am usually (well visually) perceived as male, I've always known that was something some or most people would get wrong the first time, but to never perceive it or think it could be a source of miscommunication is simply unbelievable and unrecognizable based on my life experiences. I don't say this to boost or highlight that apart from race I'm "normal" but I mention it to highlight I have some operational understanding of intersectional experiences when it comes to personal identities, and I know I am for the most part the unquestioned norm, and the position of power within our current societal construction.

I also feel guilty as a white person. I know I personally had nothing to do with oppression or slavery but my ancestors did and it makes me feel terrible. White people need to stop justifying it and just say hey I’m sorry, what can we do to help make this better going forward?

I really wish that people would have these conversations more often. But I often noticed that white people whether they are white American or white Latinos they often feel the need to feel offended that people of color still want to talk about this subject. I’ve often notice that Latinos of color also want to speak about this subject and I also notice that some white Latinos don’t get it. Even my own sister said to me one day that she doesn’t understand because she’s never noticed or experience racism, that their hasn’t been any racism for many years and I told her “that’s because you’re white and it doesn’t matter that you’re a Latina you’re still white, so you should ask our brother who is brown and see what he has to say about, I bet his experience is different.”

I don't feel triggered or upset for being told I have this privilege, as I cannot deny the reality. Why can't white people admit their privilege over darker skinned people? I genuinely don't understand why they feel so awkward or shy about race. I HATE the so called liberal who claims "I dont see colour". It's just like a white girl I felt for, who said exactly that: but she was racist to the core when push came to shove.

There's no such thing as "systemic racism". So no, in Western society, there is no such thing as "white privilege". The true reason why racism *towards* white people is tolerated is because that very same silly idea of "white privilege". Some people think they have no rights to talk about certain things or have opinions or something just because some SJWs keep making this stuff up. No, there's no gender wage gap in the US, there's no "white privilege" and the rest of those dumb things that have lost their meanings. These are myths.

@@angryinternetperson6629 Past generations have a lot to do with current shares in power, finance, and self esteem. I don't agree with the whole "its ok to be white" thing because heritage based pride seems to cause people to put down other people. I always cringe when I see all black model magazines for fashion or whatever. Slim girls used to be hot a long time ago, now they sometimes get made fun of in certain communities. You only really love the image you praise. And the image you praise has to look like you. Unless that image is personality based. And America is not there and we know it. But who doesn't? If I'm a movie director with blue skin, and I hire only blue actors, I don't need to tell them why. And they don't want to. They're not personally racist but as long as I can use them for my agenda, it's fine. I just need the numbers. Don't ever ask people to question opportunities for ethical reasons. Women are the most educated and seem to have more support and leniency bit can't see it. I just don't think that's comparable to the racial thing. And that's MY opinion.

I am white and honestly i dont even see race. My boyfriend is a different race and im so open to his family and his traditions. But people judge me for trying to be apart of his family traditions just because im white. Honestly i feel like i get judged a lot because im white and i hate saying that because other races attack me and tell me “You dont understand” or “Youre white, you shouldnt feel attacked”. Like im not saying white people are attacked more verbally, im just saying that white people are also a victim to racism and i dont think a lot of people realize that. Just all im saying is that, every race gets judged based on the color of their skin. And this is my opinion so plz dont attack me.

I’m white and did not choose to be white, just like people of color can’t choose their race. I will not be made to feel bad about something that I can’t change and didn’t choose. No one should be made to feel that way. History has literally nothing to do with me and for people to try and belittle me or make me feel guilty for something I never did, is disgusting. I played no hand in racism and I refuse to be held down to that. Everyone has privileges and everyone has disadvantages. It’s called life.
