yes i have admitted that blacks cannot blame the white man for everthing the behaviour is changing slowly however racisim is very heavy in the air. Their is no way that 38 years of no legal segregation is going to make up for hundreds of years of slavery, its going to take a long time before those wounds are healed. And if you see that as being whiny or complaining then your eyes are open wide shut

However, with your attitude, why shouldn't I be fearful if I walk down the street alone and see a group of black men. They obviously hate me because I am white, eh?

This is a stereotypical racial hatred qoute!

hmmm lets see, when slaves ran away from their slave masters, when slaves killed their slave masters for killing their family, when the underground railroad was started, when blacks were living under segregation, or how about now when whites want blacks to to stop being whiny about slavery

I think that both labeling and making generalizations about any person or group of people are often forms of righteous indignation.

I think that it is stereotyping not indignation but thats my opinion
