I wish I knew.
I think it's because we all would like to say we're not racist. But it's probably a lie. We're all wary of those different than ourselves. That's biological. The thing to do is to be aware of your prejudices, admit it to yourself, and fight against it.
Are you saying we're all racist because we're wary of things that are different?
I'm saying racism can have a basis in our tendencies to be wary of strangers yes. By strangers I mean those not in our "tribe". People of different color, ethnicity; S*x orientation than us. At first we may be wary of them. That's a psychological thing. As we get used to different people prejudices fade. I also think it's best if you have prejudices to recognizer them in yourself because then you can deal with them..

Who do you think is in control?
I guess from 2008-2016 black people could be racist since we had a black president and he had the most power. Or did it not count since he was half white?
Apparently, for some, that didn't count. That white half totally controlled everything, you know! ;)

The white half is his privileged half. The black half is his racist half.

If some of you cannot understand how a country can be controlled by one predominant race, explain why you cannot fathom a US with more "brown people" in 2050?
