There is a differeence in being Prejudice and being Racist: The Inspirational corner with Inspirational Beauty!

You know ....Most people think Racisim goes both ways. . .let me explain it this way. All of us hold "PREJUDICE'S", meaning we may prefer something over something else, nothing more, nothing less. You may prefer tall women over short ones, and in that case it will hurt my ego, but that's where it ends.

True "RACISM" has an OPRESSOR and an OPPRESSED, meaning the one oppressed are under the thumb or foot of the Oppressor, in that case racism has to have an economic undertone to truly effect the people that it is oppressing.

Does it mean that Blacks can't be racists against whites. . . I will leave that up to you to decide, but what I am saying, is that we have not OPPRESSED a people through using economic prowess.

When any people(usually poor and people of color worldwide) are oppressed we exibit the same symptoms. We hate. but love the ones who oppress us. Simply because we are attached to them for our survival(jobs and feeding our families). It is an awkward position to be in, but we have to understand that RACISM is a system. It is not words alone, or incidents alone. It is a powerhouse fueled by money. It makes its profits by working the very ones it hates, and makes unyielding profit... we have to get off the "tit" people, and then, and only then can we stand up and make decisions for ourselves. . America should be wealthy...It had 200 years of free labor...... and 200 more of underpaid labor.... .Just a little food for thought
