Fanon racism is systematic. And the only way this system can be implemented is by a group. You cannot practice racism solely on your own you must be apart of a group that dominates every area of activity and practices racism as well.

Fanon so yes when he killed those black people he was an individual practicing a form of racism. What makes him diffrent from a black person killing a bunch of white people is race group the black person belongs to does not control any resources to which they can systematically oppress white people.

The problem with Baltimore is that education for the poor and disadvantaged was either negligent or poorly funded. When the politicians used taxpayer money to move and subsidize the poor from the projects in Inner Harbor to the nice suburbs, the crime followed into those neighborhoods, thus forcing people to flee. Moving unskilled people to richer suburbs doesn't mean they automatically learn new skills but earn money with the skills they already have, like crime and drugs. Baltimore was a failure and a model for all cities to not follow. Training poor people in job careers is a better alternative to moving them out of poor projects just so some developers can make money at taxpayer expense.

While we do have a focus here, in this video, on the past injustice, it is striking that there seems to be no addressing the fairly complete breakdown in the social order among black people in the city of Baltimore at the present time. Beyond the vague generality, that "Racism has an effect," I miss any logical connection between the account of the history of some five decades in the past, and even more, and the black-on-black violence today. Poor people do not necessarily kill one another; it is not an assumption that most people make. Segregation perhaps had something to do with hostility among races, but it does not cause runaway homicide rates.

I have a notion. Apart from the thug culture that pervades our communities that we need to deal. The system itself which was built to never accept equality will never cease to be what it is. I cram to understand why we still are fighting with people to be human and do right by people of color. Capitalism is the catalyst for extreme poverty amongst other ills both within the country and outside. Poor whites have a tribal mentality they’ll vote against their own interest base on the white narrative. They are just as oppressed but with an advantage yet they know how to maintain the construct of hating People of color. And that’s not all poor white or working class. But places like Montana, rural Minnesota, etc.... that’s all they know. We have a class issue, a crooked system issue, a racist criminal government issue. It’s time for a new way!

Desean Gibir - you have touched on the real issue here. Racism/tribalism/bigotry or whatever you call it, is a relic of humans living in tribes and having a natural fear of strangers, or the "other". It becomes a big problem mainly in cultures like the USA which perpetrate such an obviously unequal and inhumane system. When you have people owning as much wealth as half of the entire country, and yet millions have no decent education, housing, medical care, food and water, not to mention meaningful work that is properly compensated, you have a system which is completely broken. When this system goes for decades without chance, the power structure becomes so entrenched that it seems impossible to change - and as part of this, people at the bottom see "others" as a threat, competitors, or even the source of the problem. In New Zealand, where I live, the society is quite mixed, and the levels of racism/bigotry rise and fall based on economic conditions. Generally, those levels are quite low, and I think it's because we have a history of socialist government which has provided many services to people who have a hard time, and taxes those who make good money. In the last 9 years, we had a right-wing/"centrist" government which tried to get rid of services, reduced taxes, and encouraged the blaming of poor people/immigrants for the problems of society. Unsurprisingly, the racism increased almost exactly proportionate to the economic problems that followed. Capitalism is a perfect recipe for inequality and misery for the majority, so it will always be accompanied by racism - though the US's past (and current) slavery and terrible treatment of indigenous peoples makes it a particularly bad problem there. Capitalism will never deliver healthy societies, and racism is a symptom of such bad health.

luka zupie - you can't be rich and expect to live in a kumbaya world without racism and civil strife. The poor can't be blamed, because they don't choose to be poor - poverty results from bad allocation of resources. If one person is very rich, many other people have to be poor - it is in the nature of being rich. Think about it - if everyone was rich, nobody would be rich. It only works if you have more buying power than other people. This is why the capitalist propaganda about the "bigger pie" is such a load of crap. Racism is just one negative result - crime, drug abuse, gangs, overloaded prisons, corruption, bad health, environmental degradation, and much more will always be part of a system that allows individuals or entities to capture large amounts of wealth at the expense of everyone else.

Mostly because capitalists invent stuff that optimize our processes of doing things. Also, workers in communist countries were/are very poor compared to capitalistic countries. But i guess you don’t care about reality, otherwise you would already know this. :)
