of this at all? That all blacks are just dandy and love all whites whilst continuing to blame their shortcomings upon whites? Not in any significant sense, significant in that if significantly affects that collective that we still call "white people." As I wrote above, the U.S. remains a de facto white supremacist society (an observable fact that you seem yet to have observed). Most blacks I know don't blame their "shortcomings," whatever that means, on whites -- they blame racist institutions, systems, and ideology for repeatedly impeding black lives. That said, that doesn't mean that they blame "all," or even most, of their problems on those white-supremacist realities. If I change my avatar to a black man, will I still receive blame? Would I still receive blame if I posed as a black man to begin with? If you said the same uninformed, unreasonably bitter things that you've said so far, yes, I think you still would. "White people enslaved black people,***(and black people sold their own)*** and they justified doing so with a claim that white people are superior to black people. Fixed that for ya. "Nor, again, is pointing out the ongoing abuse of many black people by racist white individuals and racist, white-supremacist institutions." I concede this happens. But, you can't say blacks don't so the same upon hatred for whites. Everyone gets discriminated. Whites against whites, blacks/blacks, Hispanic/Hispanic, Black/White, White/Black etc. etc. Why must it always be the "white fault"? Why don't we hear how
