Racism in America: African American Response

Earlier this week, a story was aired that captured the seemingly intolerant attitudes of some people who attended a rally for Sarah Palin, the Republican vice-presidential candidate.

But was that just a small sampling of American's views, or did those people represent a wider opinion?

Casey Kauffman, who shot the original story in Ohio, showed it to some affluent African-Americans to gauge their reaction

    • Haven't you heard?... Blacks can't be racist. Even when five of them are beating you to death for being white, it's not because they're racist. It's because you're white, and "you have it coming"... you "racist cracker".

      They've got the perfect excuse for they're mindless hatred of whites. They just claim that whites hate them. Someday, they will be right because they are far better at making enemies than making allies.

  • Al Jazeera should traveled to the projects and asked the people there about their views on McCain if they wanted a more accurate perspective.

    They interviewed yuppie blacks to balance out coverage of whites at a county fair.

  • quote: "I think it's like Alaska, not important".


    ^ it is exactly that kind of selective thinking that is being ignored. If the race distribution in Alaska mirrored that of Mississippi, DC, Georgia etc, he would not be saying that. I hope his highly educated affluent parent, Tiffany, takes him to one side and points out the errors of that way of thinking but I doubt she knows where it is headed.

  • Senator Robert KKK Byrd of the Democrat Party proves that the Democrat party is the most racist organization on the American scene.

    The elder statesman of the Democrat Party is a KLANSMAN.

    No wonder their klan loving hacks are so prevelent in attacking the Party of Lincon.

    • You can whine all day about Dixiecrats but it will never change the fact that most racism in America comes from the regressive GOP goons.

      Byrd isn't a Klansman anymore and all you've gotta do is read all the racist garbage from the GOP cheerleaders here to understand the regressive racists are almost all republiscums!
      Just the facts!
      lol

  • Congratulations, boys, you won the lottery of life by being born white. Doesn't matter what kind of lowlife you or your parents are, you have an instant advantage. Feels great doesn't it? And while you're up there why don't throw a little more shit down their way?
    I wouldn't expect any of you low self-esteem, ignorant pricks to understand anyway.

    • Winning the lottery is being gifted with intelligence and a good family, like Mr. Watson here.
      It's hard to understand where you are coming from.

  • A little history of American racism
    At the end of the Civil War came flooding into the South, came Northern troops and men with hostile ideas. Along with them, came the Union League - supported by a new militia of ex-black Union soldiers. They moved right into the plantations, cities, towns and villages, looking for the ex-slaves. The freedman became easy prey for their political agenda. Hate the whites, hate your masters, and vote for us. We will divide the spoils of the South with you. The Un More..
