How real is the rascism ?

[sputnut]

It was also done to the native Americans by the same people, as well as the blacks. It was a long long long time ago, and there is nobody alive today whose land was stolen, and nobody whose father's land was stolen, for that matter. By the time their father was born, it wasn't their land anymore. ( Everyone on Hawaii came from elsewhere for that matter.) My point? nobody remembers having it before it was taken, so cannot miss it and therefore no cause for complaint.
As was stated previously, it has happened to every race somewhere down through time, and we can't change it now.( my ancestors had their land taken by the British in the early 1200's, should I still hate them?) Point is... Holding onto resentment for something that we personally never went through, and have not met anyone it personally happened to is not helping anyone, but IS harming ourselves. So, why keep doing it? Even if it actually happened to us personally, holding hatred and resentment for it is counterproductive. Racism is ridiculous. It helps nobody.

comin' your way soon!
