I don’t think blacks who make derogatory comments about whites are racist.
To me. racism implies some kind of moral superiority.
Fantastic. So I can use the n-word on a black person and if I didn’t imply moral superiority I am not a racist?
Sorry I do not agree. Racism takes many forms that are rooted in fear, ignorance, and hatred among other things. Racism is learned. It is copied from others who you associate with. It is passed on from parents to children. It is embedded in all of our cultures. It is far more about those things then it is about any moral superiority. Moral superiority is simply another by-product of those things above just like racism is.
