Racism flows both ways

Who are the most racist people in the world? Those trying to “advance” their race and demand “equal” whatever. I don’t give two shits about race. Three, maybe, but two, nah. I’ve never seen a black person in my life. I’ve never seen a white person in my life. Even an albino is a slight cream color usually with yellow hair. Race only matters to racists and boy have the racists turned out in droves showing their true colors to someone who broke a long held color barrier at Hampton University.

So Nikole Churchill got the homecoming queen crown, first non-black to do so at Hampton apparently. This should be a cause for celebration that a community of blacks would look beyond race and elect someone they wanted to elect right? No whammy, no whammy, no whammy; Stop! Damn. Turns out the black racists in the community had a problem. Never heard of a black racist? Racists aren’t just white rednecks in the KKK; they’re everywhere, and of all races. Ask an Asian kid of immigrant parents if their parents want them to be with only an Asian. Ask the same of most immigrant children, and the parents are usually very opinionated and dead-set in their views. These topics are never portrayed as racist, but the moment some southerner mentions a preference for something, it’s all over the news that they’re racist.

One topic that’s been forced down our throats in the states this past year is race because Obama was elected. I hate nearly all politicians, including Obama, not because his skin is mocha, but because of what he does. Most of my friends at college were foreigners of all kinds of races. Nobody understood why there couldn’t be a majority council or NAAWP because they were viewed as racist while a minority council and NAACP aren’t seen as such. The most racist people I’ve ever met in my life, and I’ve been to many places on this damn planet, have been from the NAACP, not the KKK or the black panthers.

Racism flows both ways. Just because the presidency has been held by “non-blacks”, there have been presidents of tribal decent, and a “black” is elected doesn’t mean only minorities gain ground in a less race-filled world. It also means that the majority infiltrates the minority too, since it stands to reason that not just the majority should be blind to race, but the minorities too. This is what happened at Hampton University. The traditionally black school elected a non-black for homecoming queen for the first time in school history. The students are viewing race as less and less of an issue just like the rest of the country. The racists had a problem with this, but no problem calling those critical of Obama’s election racist. How’s the Jim Crow taste now assholes?
