For everyone’s information, saying things like “white people doing this” or “white girl” problems, it can be offensive and it is racist. I get offended by seeing this. People who don’t think it’s racist, you need to rethink your life.
it isn’t racist;…
having a bias about someone based on their skin color is prejudice.
Racism = prejudice + power
White people are the oppressive power and therefore do not experience racism.
White people can however, experience prejudice and discrimination.
Just because whites are the “oppressive power” does not mean they don’t experience racism. I get what you’re saying, but it’s all racism to me.
Thank you for responding respectfully. I understand where you are coming from as well, I used to confuse the words prejudice and racism and use them interchangeably until I took several sociology classes that broke it down for me. Prejudice is having opinions about someone based on they race. Racism is putting that/those prejudice(s) into action; for example, institutionalized racism and systematic racism, etc.
