Playing the "who is more racist" game is an exercise in futility.

What you should worry about is the failed governments in many parts of Africa, the cartel controlled nation of Mexico, the nuclear dictatorships in Russia and North Korea and the criminal anarchy of Haiti. We have myriad problems as well here in America including our own barely functioning government due to lack of cohesion and consensus.

We can start by making sure weed remains illegal nationwide. Pot heads are a burden on society.

We can worry about those things over in P&N. Not here. And I'm pretty sure we can worry about them regardless of the legal state of pot here.

it's baked into human culture and society

example from 3 early sumerian cuneiform signs, circa 3000 bc:

1. "munus" - woman

2. "kur" - foreign land

3. "geme" - female slave

in sumerian, anybody outside of your country is a potential slave

they kind of did the same with "lu" (man) and "arad" (male slave) signs too

The evolution of language made possible the use of words that discriminate. Once you can say one difference is bad and another is good you can program children to have this and that belief by punishing them or rewarding them one way or another. This will insure that they grow into adults with unconsciously biased beliefs they will not remember how they got there because to remember would be to re-experience the pain.

Not only is the use of language this way not unique to white people, it has happened to all of us. Racism is just one form of this. The far far more dangerous result of this is that whatever we were programmed to believe, we not only don't recognize as a personal quirk of our particular individual upbringing, but is also goes unquestioned as the absolute truth.

People have little realization that everything they believe isn't truth but the product of a duality that does not actually exist. This is also the root of suffering and for some the pain of it drives them to seek a way our. Sometimes even the realization comes that by thinking, the use of duality of language that forms our capacity to think, creates a trap from which further thinking, like Chinese finger traps, tighten the bonds. When faced with this realization a radical shift in conscious awareness sometimes called enlightenment can happen.

God dammit someone just sucked all the fun out of this thread.
 
" The remarkable story of Chief Standing Bear, who in 1879 persuaded a federal judge to recognize Native Americans as persons with the right to sue for their freedom, established him as one of the nation's earliest civil rights heroes."


Chief Standing Bear: A Hero of Native American Civil Rights

A new Moments in History video, in recognition of Native American Heritage Month, recounts how Chief Standing Bear persuaded a federal judge in 1879 to recognize Native Americans as persons with the right to sue for their freedom, establishing him as one of the nation’s earliest civil rights heroes.

Have whites ever had to go to court to prove they were human?
 
I would say it's not really a "white" problem. It's more of a political issue. Whoever is in power gets to favor people of his own race/color/ethnicity etc. I see this going on in my OWN frickin' workplace where the COO promoted people with the same nationality as his own and no one is sure why those people got promoted other than the matching nationality. Of course, no one is happy but anyone who dares to challenge the promotion criteria or even complain to HR, will simply invite extra scrutiny into his/her own work performance, leading to an early dismissal. And the unfairness of life goes on.
