In reply to the discussion: Quick Question... Why should black people love white people? [View all]MellowDem
(5,018 posts)That's the real question. I'm not shocked a young black women is prejudiced and bigoted towards white people, nor am I shocked when posters like to defend this attitude as justified on this site, but I am saddened.
I understand why the KKK hates black people, but I don't try to justify it, nor do I think there is ever a good reason to hate people for their skin color.
I don't expect everyone to "love" white people as a group. I don't love or hate any whole groups of people for things like skin color, it's not rational. But to hate a group of people based on only their skin color is prejudiced and bigoted. I understand the reasoning behind prejudice and bigotry, if it can be called that, but it's still wrong.
I don't think there is anything any group, especially a group that is entirely made up from a vague identity such as race, can do anything to earn trust and love from everyone else. And anyone who did would be exhbiting positive bigotry.
Honestly, you come across justifying prejudice and bigotry many times with your posts. If you think hating white people is justified, then just come out and say it, and give your reasoning.
