What really happens when we try to talk about race?

Race?

I don't see the issue. Counting on there's only ONE HUMAN RACE. People often misuse this word. Say there was acouple, and the woman was asian and the man was white. Their difference in "Race" doesn't effect their ability to combine their genes and have an offsrping because we are all humans. Hence 1 race.

Racism is a form of division created for power purposes. People try to belittle others to up lift themselves. If whites did not exist in America the current sub groups of power would rise and be accussed of being racist.

1 of the biggest reasons why problems often occur when white people are posed with questions on Race bcoz white people do not hav 2thinkabout race that often. But 'Non-white's' hav 2think about Racism bcoz theyre still oppressed in evry aspect of life eg Employmnt/Education/Religion/H­ousing & the most important factor tht racism has the biggest effect on us the most is Sex (fear of white genetic annihilation)...Checkout: Welsing on FTP-Part1B: Diagnosing the behavior

I agree, people seem to want to fall back on the old axioms, 'you are racist', 'you want to blame all your problems on whites'. a change definitely needs to happen. I think the first step is to try not to get defensive and most importantly keep the dialogue going.

Why should race even matter when you find morons and idiots in every race. We are all american, Americans should not be seperating themselves from each other, we all live in the same nation and we all love our nation ( at least thats what true American is supposed to do)

on the other hand, i find it just as silly black people want me to treat them the same (which i would do anyway) but cant stop reminding me and everybody else they are black. black this black that. i mean, are you the same if you keep pointing out yer different? two completely differnt messages ment to keep you off balence and worried you might offend. i dont care if i offend.

how about accepting differences not as disabilities which is to say inequality, but rather people not be so insecure about what they think they should be better at or have more of. envy, jealousy, and insecurity is what i think spurns bigotry of most kinds. for example white guys often assume if you are awhite man than you are down with thier bigotry.
