@Mott-The-Hoople saidOMG, did you even read this article?
"Mainly because they ARE the majority. And whites throughout history have made it so that everything is set up for them, and against others. How can racism affect those with such a societal advantage? "
that is racist
Have you any knowledge of black run countries?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racism_in_Africa
In EVERY case, it is the majority exerting racism upon the minorities.
How can you not see this? Oh, wait. You think all black people are the same, don't you??
Holy crap. I didn't think you were THAT stupid.

@Mott-The-Hoople saidMan, it's like arguing with a 5-year-old.
that article is concerning blacks mistreating other blacks, not because of racism, but because of ideology. they are not being mistreated because they are black...damn at the ignorance
you dumbasses dont know what racism is other than using it as a tool to have some relevance of some sort
The title of the article is 'Racism in Africa', dumbass.
You honestly think all blacks are the same, don't you?

@Mott-The-Hoople saidWhites calling blacks lazy has become used so much, that it has become a common racist meme.
ok class, what have we learned from the libs
whites cant call blacks lazy, but blacks can call whites lazy...got it!
It's 'classic' racism, if you will.
@Mott-The-Hoople saidRead the article for the first time.
what race was the racism against?
what race was did racist acts?
It is all clearly explained.
Wikipedia also has this to say about 'Racism':
"The term is often used in relation to what is seen as prejudice within a minority or subjugated group, as in the concept of reverse racism. "Reverse racism" is a concept often used to describe acts of discrimination or hostility against members of a dominant racial or ethnic group while favoring members of minority groups. This concept has been used especially in the United States in debates over color-conscious policies (such as affirmative action) intended to remedy racial inequalities. However, many experts and other commenters view reverse racism as a myth rather than a reality.
"Academics commonly define racism not only in terms of individual prejudice, but also in terms of a power structure that protects the interests of the dominant culture and actively discriminates against ethnic minorities. From this perspective, while members of ethnic minorities may be prejudiced against members of the dominant culture, they lack the political and economic power to actively oppress them, and they are therefore not practicing 'racism'."
Say it with me, "Holy crap, Sue, you're right."
@Mott-The-Hoople saidFor God's sake, read the frickin' article. It's all laid out there who is doing what.

The first paragraph on the page is this:
"Ethnic pygmy populations in Central Africa suffer from racialized discrimination from Bantu peoples. Pygmies and Bantus differ physically and genetically due to long lasting evolutionary segregation until the Bantu expansion brought them back into close contact. Pygmies have been targeted for slavery by Bantu populations continuing into the modern age. They are frequently ostracized from participation into the wider society in the various African countries that they live in and are seen as untouchables. Racially-motivated attacks occur on Pygmies including rape and cannibalization."
And that's just the first of many, many examples, all of which talk about the majority racially oppressing the minority.
Your problem, as I see it, is your racism makes you think all black people are the same, and this is clearly not true, especially IN Africa.
@Suzianne saidso now its not the color of the skin?

As No1 has said here many times, race is a construct.
What is being ostracized here is 'the other'. White nationalists and white supremacists focus on skin color because it is the most obvious way to locate people who are not like you. Your fear has always been with 'the other'; all of those who don't look like you. In Africa, this is problematic, nearly everyone is black. So the differences they choose are 'what tribe' you belong to. This is still 'racism'. Only whites are so superficial that they choose the most obvious way to single people out.
Discrimination based on what makes someone different from you is the easy road to being racist. 'Oh, look out for him, he's not like us' has been around since the Stone Age.
It's clearly past time for us to evolve past this.
@Suzianne saidits quite amusing seeing a person crying racism while arguing there are no races...
