Kant and Hume used scientific reasoning to install the idea that the "white race" and white skin was superior. that was in the 1700's. imo, racism, in the modern context starts with them and the age of enlightenment. before that there was no justification for barbarism, oppression or enslavement, other than pure xenophobia.. you were either a persian, of persian blood, or you were a barbarian and beneath.
ah ok, youre not stupid, youre just a pedant.

yes lets not talk about it, that'll make it go away :W:

The Brazilians did exactly that. They found out that there was no racism in Brazil because they had "Tropicalism", and then refused to tackle their racism problem because it didn't exist! And we all know how that turned out...
ok may be your right....lets all paint ourselves green.... and ..im sorry im just tired of hearing about it...people just stop being racist...its that simple...oh thats right no its not..we should keep talking about it...and and you know that race is always more racist than the other...o wait... no its not...THAT race is always more racist than the other....JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP...

there's new research that suggests that racism begins with monkeys. i don't buy it, but others might.

Racism is not based on "scientific reasoning". That's not when racism was created, that's when it became part of scientific dogma.

Cecil Rhodes, founder of de beers diamond mining, founder of Rhodesia, conqueror of Africa...said in his 1902 will, in regards to the English Empire...

"To and for the establishment, promotion and development of a Secret Society, the true aim and object whereof shall be for the extension of British rule throughout the world, the perfecting of a system of emigration from the United Kingdom, and of colonisation by British subjects of all lands where the means of livelihood are attainable by energy, labour and enterprise, and especially the occupation by British settlers of the entire Continent of Africa, the Holy Land, the Valley of the Euphrates, the Islands of Cyprus and Candia, the whole of South America, the Islands of the Pacific not heretofore possessed by Great Britain, the whole of the Malay Archipelago, the seaboard of China and Japan, the ultimate recovery of the United States of America as an integral part of the British Empire, the inauguration of a system of Colonial representation in the Imperial Parliament which may tend to weld together the disjointed members of the Empire and, finally, the foundation of so great a Power as to render wars impossible, and promote the best interests of humanity."

I think everyone knows the past and nobody has at any juncture suggested otherwise
people used to be racist due to the way things were...my mums a bit racist but its because shes older and my ex gf that happened to be of caribbean descent had a gran that said racist things about whites too....i didn't care as i put it down to background and environment

No country can be accused of being more racist than another...more it can be accused in the present of lacking the ability seemingly to educate its people ala i would say on a percentage more people in the U.S than the UK but thats down to a huge number of complex reasons...

Over here for the most part nobody is happy being seen as being racist and its seen as being embarrassing, I get the impression that In the U.S this may be less so but i could be wrong

Let me explain it to you then youngun. My original comment is not sexist because if it was a 'bassguy' saying it i'd have said the same thing. You projected sexism onto the comment.
No, I don't want a flame war, i'm grown.

Well, you obviously do not understand the word "sarcasm". Enjoy!

the great thing about this obama time in america, is that people do talk about things. at least here in new york. i can't speak about the rest of america. in general, even though we do have the supremacists, arizona, fox news and glenn beck, obama has definitely made racists uncomfortable, and thats massive progress from the bush era, where discrimination was blatant in both the media and acceptance of ignorance. now, if you're ignorant, or preach ignorance, you'll be taken up on it immediately. people aren't afraid of confrontation on race, especially in public. you see it all the time in NYC.
