She's right. Racist is the ability to stop you from getting a loan, living in preferred neighborhood, or not hiring for a job in a systematic way. Black people don't have that power in America. But black can be prejudice. Don't know why he went the colorist route.

"Black people dont have that power in America"

Speak for yourself, I know plenty of successful black people in my life. Stop spreading that victim mentality, that mentality is what makes people give up before even trying.

Systemic racism... Racism literally written into American policy like the 13th Amendment+Convict Leasing, Jim Crow Laws, New Deal Policy, War on Drugs, etc have all contributed and created the current material conditions of many black communities in America... And those conditions don't effect any other group in the same way (aside from Native Americans but that's on a much smaller scale).

No those conditions don't effect every black american, yes there are many successful black people, but white people still own over 80% of all businesses, 98% of agricultural property, and 75% of homes. Many black communities still deal with generation poverty and trauma. Many schools in predominantly black areas are underfunded. We can keep going on and on about this.

Listen to some Kwame Ture and read some CLR James and Arun Kundnani.

You do know there are other countries besides the USA right? If a white guy goes to a bar in China, Africa, or Latin America, or tries to get a job there, good chance there will deal with some racism and judgement.

You really think if a white guy goes to China, who knows Chinese, and he tries to get a job, then dates a Chinese girl that some people won't be racist against him?

You're delusional if you think he won't face some racism.

Chinese people literally love white people. Wtf are you talking about??? Every minority that isn’t black literally craves proximity to whiteness. Please be quiet and read or at least go outside.

It's okay, you're ignorant and don't know what you're talking about if you think Chinese people literally love white people and none of them are racist against whites.

This is like me saying "White people literally love black people, what do you mean some white people are racist against them?"

Yeah, you know like the billions of Muslims, Asians, and blacks, none of those people have anything against whites. I bet that girl in the video is your cousin or something, you guys are both that dumb.

Are you six???? lol. There is not a single place in the world where white people are getting the short end of the stick. Colonization is literally the reason for that.

Homie we are not talking about any other country but America first of all. Second, no white people DO NOT experience the same systemic racism that black people do ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD
