Default Racial seperation in the United States

Can you believe this? You know if they had white people centered web browsers, it would be called racist. If they had white people television (They have BET or black entertainment television over here) it would be called racist.

This web browser is a racist web browser.

Subman's right.

I've seen and heard quite a few things said by an invidual of an "non-white race" that would be considered as racism if a white invidual would say it.

No, it's not done for racist reasons. But the others are right - if something like this was started by a white person, others would indeed condemn it as just that.

I used to know a prominent woman doctor who, when asked to become a member of the National Orginazation of Women, replied "No, thanks. I don't belong to sexist groups." And she was right, but you'll never get most of the people who start these things to see it that way.
