Racism: In Business or Government?

Unfortunately, racism is still with us, and will be for some time. How does it manifest itself? This video DOES NOT attempt a comprehensive answer, but looks at two major societal systems: economics and government. It examines the question: how inherent is racism in the corporate world, and how inherent is it in government? The answer may surprise many of you.

This is made as a response to baseless accusations of racism against me. I hope to put these accusations in perspective and show what it is they are really defending.

I would like to compare these numbers to the areas of corporations. if a corporation is in an area that is like 20% black, then 19% black is actually lower than the general population.

Just to check.

@darris321 This is a nasty trick of the political bigots: they break things down like you say they should, which sounds reasonable, except that then statistical noise jumps in and they make that 19% out to be a sign of racism when really it's just statistical fluctuations.

@amicusnemini Well, as long as you've got a cogent rebuttal...

[shanedk]

@ThePyro3825 Yes, and it was mostly Democrats who passed the Jim Crow laws and other racist legislation.

[ThePyro3825]

Some on the Left seem to forget there was a time when Democrats considered black people to be property.

I don't agree with this 'one group is worse off that the other' I believe everyone has potential of being a victim, some more than others BUT I think the most important thing is that we are all seen as equally important as individuals in the eyes of the governments.

[ForeverComplaining]

Racism would probably decrease under a liberaltarian government, this is because people would be too focused on bettering themselves and being individuals rather than groups (groups which seem to have formed their own sub-cultures in reaction to hate spilled from Republican mouths and exaggerations through democrats)

@amicusnemini And what do you propose?

@ThePyro3825 Do you know why Republicans called themselves conservatives? it's because of Robert Taft avocation of the preservation of founding principles of John Locke,Thomas Jefferson and James Madison but in 1964 when Barry Goldwater voted no to the civil rights act and Medicare that made most blacks leave the GOP like they did in 1932.
