We have to end structural racism that offends, strikes, and kills.

Among the new public programs in support of Brazilian Black youth, Lula mentioned actions to promote greater inclusion in education, health, culture, sports, and security.

I think you are referring to the noisy minority. Most Americans know what racism is and have the same definition as the rest of the world.

I would have agreed with you 10 years ago, but things are a changin. Does the rest of the world include "power" as part of racism? I think a large portion of the left side believes that black people cant be racist because they allegedly dont have power.

You are talking about a minority but noisy group who have made up these new views to further their cause be left right or in the middle. Some people just make up things but they really are not the common person.

The part about power is what probably the majority of the left side believes and says. I think most people on this website believe that black people cant be racist.

I am not seeing a lot of racism from the left not not a lack of recognition that it exists in the black communities. Not saying you see it differently as perhaps we just walk different roads but it is for sure not something I am seeing.

I dont see any racism either, but the left side will claim there is more than there actually is. My whole issue is that what is catagorized as racism is going to vary wildly by people.
