  1. Yes, sadly, I think it's true. It's an extention of the white (not all whites of course) lament of being "a minority in our own country." Too many still consider it THEIR country.

    No one asks a white person what country they're from. Yet a person with dark skin or slanted eyes is guaranteed to face that question at least once in their life. This happens less for Africans, but I know Americans who think all of Africa is one country. It's really quite absurd.

    Mexicans tend to be the most scorned, mostly due to immigration. However, back in WWII, it was Asians. And for centuries, it was Africans.


  2. you are naïve

  3. American roughly translates from Americanese to the English: "Middle+ class White Christian".  Lower class white christians are referred to as "rednecks", but are still put a step above non-whites.  The exception is the "Uncle Tom", a black that pretends to be white in every way possible, a walking suck-up machine.

    EDIT: The most UNAmerican minority is the g**s right now, congress is kicking their heads around to desperately try to maintain the white Christian status quo.

  4. i think they are viewed that way. currently, i think mexicans are most looked down upon. why? cuz they are most likely to really not be americans. not being racist, just stating facts. i wish they wouldn't hop the border so the poor mexicans that have been waiting to get in the legal way wouldn't have a bad name.

  5. where have you been for the past 400 years.  Blacks have always been considered second class citizens.  Why, this is the way whites were taught, "If you are not better than the blacks, then who are you better than." That is why the system surrounding blacks is designed for them to fail.  Like always there are exceptions to everything.  Blacks have the highest unemployment rate over 50%, the poorest housing and schools are in the inter-cities, not to mention there are more blacks in prisons than in college.
