Ok I am only 15 and I have stumbled across this site and here’s what I have to say. I think that obviously bad things happend to black people in the past by a society that was intolerant to differences but the society has realized the faults and that and has changed and racism still exists but only through select groups of white people, black people and Asian people. But when walking in the mall or other places black people have often made racist comments to me and I have never made racist comments to them or any other black person. When I turn on my TV in Canada i always see stories about racist white people denying black people jobs and other such things but I have yet to meet one person who has expressed such racist views. My father had a serious racial remark thrown upon him so he called the human rights commission in Canada and they said straight, white, males were not covered. I always hear about poor black people and they exist but just down the road from me there are tones of impoverished white people who will fall into the same trap and will never make any money and people are sure discriminatory of them — dirty, greasy lowlifes is what there called. And then I always get the fact of my ancestors … my ancestors were not slave owners they were not rich they were not even in this country they were poor Irishmen. Why should I pay for decisions that were made that I had nothing to do with that I had no say in? I feel like I am guilty of being white and I’ve already paid 15 years for being born white. When will it end?
