8 of 8 - Black or White: Kids on Race - John Legend - Race Bias is Real

The discussion of race is never a black and white issue, and recent "AC360°" and CNN.com reports about young children's attitudes on race became one of the most discussed stories on the site, eliciting more than 4,500 comments. In the study, white children had an overwhelming bias toward white, and black children also had a bias toward white, but it was not nearly as strong as the bias shown by the white children. Many users of the site thought parenting was the issue behind the results, some thought the kids were too naive and others thought the testing method was flawed.

@fuckronaldreagan I think the point is that children are biased towards whites and that is bad, my point is that in Europe there is nothing wrong with being biased towards whites the same way that in Africa there is nothing wrong with being biased towards Africans or Chinese in China. My point is that as the native people of England we should have rights over and above any other group.

@electrofromage i think you've missed the point of this video. thanks for playing.

@fuckronaldreagan I didn't claim that the overall level of crime had risen, I claimed that blacks commit more violent crimes on average than whites which is backed up by the crime statistics from the FBI which show that blacks are on average 10x more likely to commit crime than whites.

I am not debating the fact that I have white privilege, maybe I do. But my point is I live in England, white people are the indigenous people of this country and as such should be privileged.

@MAATSouL20 lol, we're all theorists of some sort. its just simple evaluation, mixed with fact, and recollection of history.

@Missbookgirl1 You can think one skin color is sexier without necessarily thinking it's better or equating it with smarter, nicer, etc.

@Nicoleiia I agree. 

[Nicoleiia]

@YoungnRomantic well, now everyones happy. BW are lesbos so, now BM can take all the nonblack women they want. It's a win-win.

[YoungnRomantic]

@Nicoleiia Its true. I see it everyday. They even rub it in BM's faces and take pride in degrading and putting us down in the process yet they then turn around and want us to not be with any other group of women. Fuck that !
