Also want to refresh this thread because I know lots of right wing conservative racist bigots came in here with their bull shit lies.

Racism equals supremacy which equals power, with out power, it is not racism.

Apply these definitions to the United states, we have elites that are made of white men with global power, their power trickles down to white privledge, mean while people of color have no power (statisticly speaking, no jobs, no assets, and little to no status etc etc)
There for, people of color can NOT be racist. They however can be prejudice, but pprejudicism is not the same as racism. Both bad, but one much more evil then the other

Power is not a componant of racism, tho you repeatedly (and wrongly) claim power is nessecary for racism to exist.
"Racism equals supremacy which equals power, with out power, it is not racism" < this statement is just flat out wrong..

have you ever made even one single statement that is factually correct, redtard?

racism
[rey-siz-uh m]
Spell Syllables
noun
1.
a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human racial groups determine cultural or individual achievement,usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to dominate others or that a particular racial group is inferior to the others.




i mean, it's literally right in the definition of racism.

i guess in addition to NASA being wrong about everything, the people who wrte dictionaries are also wrong about everything.

maybe they should consult you first.

Do you find it hard to believe that Irish people were refused entry to some bars/pubs in London up until the mid 1980s only 30 years ago ?
There were no signs prohibiting black people from said establishments during the 1980s just the Irish
during the 1960s there would of been signs that also refused entry to blacks but i am not old enough to have "witnessed" that

peace

Hey @Fogdog, it's all good now. The racist is "sorry" her racism was noticed.

http://news.yahoo.com/boston-university-criticizes-black-professors-racial-tweets-202124508.html

They even threw in a bone for the OP:

"Calling Professor Grundy's tweets racist minimizes the very real effects of racism for people of color in the United States."

There you go, I figured something was going on behind the scenes. Thanks for the info.

Unless I'm mis-reading it, there isn't agreement on calling P Gundy's comments racist tho. Referring to UB's posting above, it's hard to put her comments into the racist bin. You seem to be a bit sensitive about this.

This book/ebook has lots of information about the Irish servant/slave subject, you can download the pdf if you are interested
it was written by two British journalists one of them was also a TV presenter
i do not believe there is any evidence to suggest that these two journalists are part of or inspired by any kind of white supremacist beliefs
or that this book was written with the intent to diminish the suffering of black slaves

Not interested. White supremacist and right wingnut organizations in this country are trying to dilute the impact of our history with statutory black slavery based on racism by folding in the truly awful but very different saga of Britain's deeds of indentured servitude. Tying the two together would be false and doesn't deserve even this much attention.

You apparently live in England. I don't understand your commitment to this, however, if you and your authors want to call what happened to the Irish, slavery, its not important to me. I'll continue to differentiate the two. But then again I'm a nobody. I haven't published a book.

DD, I think I'll stick with the official definition of racism. I didn't see anything where she said blacks were superior.

I'm still waiting on him to name me one famous Irish slave. I really want to look up some Irish slaves history. See how hard it was for him or her, sadly no one on this site can give me one single Irish slave name to go on.

She said white males were in some way "inferior" or "the problem".

You know who famously used similar words to come up with a "Final Solution" to the "Jewish problem"??

Sorry, not buying the connection between Hitler and this professor. You and DD have a fascination with that short guy. Also, where did she say "inferior".

Looking at the definition of racism turns out I'm not racist, However my area is one of the most racist in the country. I do clump groups of people together not by the color of their skin but by their actions.... What does that make me?

Serious question.
