@KateDickman Japanese, Chinese, Ghana, Liberia, Somalia, Ireland, New Zealand — All these places have "race" issues as well in reply to KateDickman #
@Stwo interesting. I dunno but glad you joined the conversation in reply to Stwo #
Progress is all we can hope for in a world of turmoil #
@KateDickman I think each time I have a race talk with my guy friend who is White (the one who started this convo), progress is made in reply to KateDickman #
@KateDickman The way I know to deal with is by discussing it. It may hurt, feel embarrassing but naming your pain reduces it in reply to KateDickman #
@KateDickman Additionally, many people with European roots benefit from the actions of their ancestors. There is guilt there; resentment in reply to KateDickman #
@KateDickman Europeans take the title for the most slavery + genocide in history. That has created worldwide resentment in reply to KateDickman #
@KateDickman There is more than just Black and White. Those aren't correct because we're Brown and Peach in reply to KateDickman #

@TheJLV Black + Jewish in reply to TheJLV #
@StaciJShelton Staci, thank you so very much. The light you shine is much appreciated! in reply to StaciJShelton #
@jmedwards An example of racism is how White settlers in the America took the land of Native Americans assuming they could use it better in reply to jmedwards #
I'm not confused. Racism is the belief that the race you belong to is superior to others + racist actions, policies and laws #

@m_cowan79 yes and then the logical fallacies come pouring out in reply to m_cowan79 #
@TheJLV Same Adria. It's so strange when people take the position of, "That Brown person is racist" vs "I could never understand your past" in reply to TheJLV #
I've got an iPhone, Zendesk and Firefox in my blog header now! http://butyoureagirl.com #
Previous Tweets were my response to convo with White guy, "Chris Rock is a racist" re: #goodhair #
Black people can certainly resent White people, hold grudges and stereotypes. That isn't racism. #
Black people CANNOT be racist against White people. Racism is a position of the oppressor who has the power #
