If you follow the liberal garbage of the New York Times at all, you’re probably aware of an individual named George Yancy and the “Dear White People” letters he’s become known for. In his Christmas Eve message he told white people that you are racist no matter what.
Okay, so now that we know the problem of racial equality can’t be solved, we can finally move on . . . or not. Yancy later goes on to say that white people tell themselves lies so they don’t feel the weight of the sins of the white people who came before them.
First of all, what right does he or anybody have to claim offense at something that they weren’t around to be offended by? Second, why should any white person feel “the weight” of sins that they weren’t around to commit. This is, of course, all referring to slavery, which seems to be the only talking point of African American activists, besides the Jim Crow laws of the South.
And, let’s not forget they were equally racist in the Northern parts of the country in those days. That fact aside, you could easily collapse that entire argument by reading any non-agenda setting book about the time period and discover that Africans actually sold their own people into slavery in exchange for weapons and goods.

You are racist.WHY
From a black racist, to all whites.
Several things come to mind. People cannot stand blanket statements, unless of course, it is their blanket statement. Then, of course, it is perfectly acceptable.
I imagine all races have racist factions.
And what about mixed race people? Does that give them an inescapable inner conflict?
And last, this man completely invalidates that old saying “familiarity breeds contempt “. He doesn’t know all whites, however, he has contempt for all whites…. (please see my first statement ) Has he performed a study? Has he developed this concern because he himself is so under privileged and held back by whites? Does he discount any racism he may have encountered from a member of another race other than a member of the white race as an anomaly? What about members of the white race who have shown him no racist tendencies at all? Are they also just an anomaly? How awful for him if he has encountered these other strange individuals.
But he does underscore another old adage. ..”educated to the point of confusion”.
I have yet to meet a minority that is not racist.
Racist asshole
Hes got it Backwards, He can’t see past the color of his own skin and inner hate. his fathers hate
I’m racist against people like him.
Scarey when you consider that this racist bigot is teaching our kids! EHAT A MORON!
A generation of VICTIMS coming out of college. No wonder they need ‘safe spaces.’ They can’t handle the real world.
One loses all credibility when using terms like– ‘ all you people ‘ and ‘everybody thinks’ .
