Because you wouldn't really care. Who gets offended when they're called cracker? NO ONE. There's no power in any of those words. They're simply words.
...But If I were to call you coon,jiggaboo, Kike, sand ******, rag head ,Towelhead, WOP, Camel Jockey, Gook, ******, slant eyes or Chink you call me a racist.
Because those are names that people have been called during a period of proposed extermination by whites. There's a tender history there.
You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you, so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?
Urban areas, while dangerous, are more over territory and pride. The precursor, however, is oppression and overt poverty leading to despair and desperation. Frustration over circumstances and a constant uphill battle for no apparent reason lead to adverse behavior normally resulting in violence. In the burbs, at one time, someone of color could be killed simply for being "colored".
You have the United Negro College Fund.
You have centuries of money and (up until Tuesday) a government full of people wanting to help.
You have Martin Luther King Day.
You have Black History Month.
You have the 330 other days of the year.
You have Cesar Chavez Day.
You have Yom Hashoah
You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi
You have the NAACP.
You have Wallstreet
You have BET.
You have CBS, ABC, NBC, FOX, TLC, Discovery, Discovery Health, Public Access, Disney, and between 300-400 other channels depending on location and service provider.
If we had WET(white entertainment television) ...we'd be racist.
If we had a White Pride Day... you would call us racist.
If we had white history month... we'd be racist.
If we had an organization for only whites to "advance" our lives... we'd be racist.
Until recently, you had America. I'm not sure if that's a big enough organization to count.
If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships...you know we'd be racist.
You do. Obviously, it's not called the UWCF, but it's there.
In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights...you would call us racist.
When white people march for their race, they have a distinct tendancy of killing everyone who's NOT their race.
Did you know that some high school students decided to make a club for only the white students because the other ethnicities had them... they all got sent to court for being racist but the african-american, Latino, and Asia clubs were not even questioned.
Well, I'm not sure if this was public knowledge, but they used to have entire schools and school systems that were white only.
You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists.
Again, when "white pride" is announced, it's usually at the expense of non-whites.
You have "black is beautiful" shirts and ppl think its cute but if I wore a "white is wonderful" shirt id get beat up.
That's all assuming that you hadn't already hung, lynched, burned, stabbed, or molested people from other races already.
I am white.
I am proud.
But, you call me a racist.
Why is it that only whites can be racists?
