The late South African economist William Hutt, in his 1964 book, The Economics of the Colour Bar, said that one of the supreme tragedies of the human condition is that those who have been the victims of injustices and oppression "can often be observed to be inflicting not dissimilar injustices upon other races."
Born in 1936, I've lived through some of our openly racist history, which has included racist insults, beatings and lynchings. Tuskegee Institute records show that between the years 1880 and 1951, 3,437 blacks and 1,293 whites were lynched. I recall my cousin's and my being chased out of Fishtown and Grays Ferry, two predominantly Irish Philadelphia neighborhoods, in the 1940s, not stopping until we reached a predominantly black North or South Philly neighborhood.
Today all that has changed. Most racist assaults are committed by blacks. What's worse is there're blacks, still alive, who lived through the times of lynching, Jim Crow laws and open racism who remain silent in the face of it.
Last year, four black Skidmore College students yelled racial slurs while they beat up a white man because he was dining with a black man. Skidmore College's first response was to offer counseling to one of the black students charged with the crime. In 2009, a black Columbia University professor assaulted a white woman during a heated argument about race relations. According to interviews and court records obtained and reported by Denver's ABC affiliate (12/4/2009), black gangs roamed downtown Denver verbally venting their hatred for white victims before assaulting and robbing them during a four-month crime wave. Earlier this year, four black girls beat a white girl at a McDonald's, and the victim suffered a seizure. Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel ordered an emergency shutdown of the beaches in Chicago because mobs of blacks were terrorizing families. According to the NBC affiliate there (6/8/2011), a gang of black teens stormed a city bus, attacked white victims and ran off with their belongings.
Racist black attacks are not only against whites but also against Asians. In San Francisco, five blacks beat an 83-year-old Chinese man to death. They threw a 57-year-old woman off a train platform. Two black Oakland teenagers assaulted a 59-year-old Chinese man; the punching knocked him to the ground, killing him. At Philly's South Philadelphia High School, Asian students report that black students routinely pelt them with food and beat, punch and kick them in school hallways and bathrooms as they hurl racial epithets such as "Hey, Chinese!" and "Yo, Dragon Ball!" The Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund charged the School District of Philadelphia with "deliberate indifference" toward black victimization of Asian students.
In many of these brutal attacks, the news media make no mention of the race of the perpetrators. If it were white racist gangs randomly attacking blacks, the mainstream media would have no hesitation reporting the race of the perps. Editors for the Los Angeles Times, the New York Times, and the Chicago Tribune admitted to deliberately censoring information about black crime for political reasons. Chicago Tribune Editor Gerould Kern recently said that the paper's reason for censorship was to "guard against subjecting an entire group of people to suspicion."
These racist attacks can, at least in part, be attributed to the black elite, who have a vested interest in racial paranoia. And that includes a president who has spent years aligned with people who have promoted racial grievance and polarization and appointed an attorney general who's accused us of being "a nation of cowards" on matters of race and has refused to prosecute black thugs who gathered at a Philadelphia voting site in blatant violation of federal voter intimidation laws. Tragically, black youngsters – who are seething with resentments, refusing to accept educational and other opportunities unknown to blacks yesteryear – will turn out to be the larger victims in the long run.
Black silence in the face of black racism has to be one of the biggest betrayals of the civil rights struggle that included black and white Americans.

America's New Racists

arguing with a socialist is like arguing with a religious zealot. it's what comes from having a more feminine, emotional mind, rather than a masculine rational mind IMO.

When you mess with people and limit their growth in society, it will no doubt show future generations.
If there weren't ghettos and black people received on average the same education and were in an equal financial state as an average white kid, there wouldn't be so much crime and hatred.
This concept also applies to the Middle East and other places that have been fked with."I'm training,dieting and resting well. I make mistakes. I am out of juice and sometimes even protein. But if you can't handle me when I'm all bloated on my cheat meal, then you sure as hell don't deserve me when I'm shredded."

This. The dude writing that stuff is an insecure *******, yes black and yes mad. Growing up in the shiit holes i did i saw most young black men angry at the lack of opportunities, school was hard like a brick wall, jobs were none and crime was the only thing that paid and when you start asking why life is so hard and shiit you always get one NOI preacher in the hood that will tell you the 'white man is the devil', then you do a bit of research and realise that we were deliberately put into that situation. Most young black men will just fight their way through to express their anger, others like me will gtfo of the hood and try and beat the system.

Bro, go to a school in my old hood in Inglewood, south l.a and compare it to the average school in the next white neighbourhood. You'll see the difference, they're worlds apart. When your local governor or whatever has money to spend on schools he'll spend it on the nice schools to perfect them and even if it is subconciously he will ignore the schools in our hoods thinking 'they'll be ok, they're shiit anyway, no point'.

LOL I went to a shiit school too brah. Old ass buildings with on again-off again heat in the winter and no AC in warm weather. So what? I know you're not trying to tell me that somewhere in your old hood though that there wasn't at least ONE teacher in the whole school that didn't try to teach kids something??

I just realized something...
A lot of people I grew up with didn't turn out so hot either. A couple are in prison, another couple have been murdered, lot of the girls spit out welfare babies with white trash dead-beat dads, etc.. Yet nobody sits around making excuses for them for some reason.
Dammit! If we'd only had a better school."Do you think SHE actually felt like that was a sexual thing he was doing? She's like 6. Only an actual p3do would think that she thought he was groping her, too."

I have a buddy who is black (hes in his mid 30s) he has a son who is 15...to quote him, his son acts like every other black kid who acts like he is owed something.
not all black ppl act this way. But it is true that blacks commit more crimes that are racially motivated than whites, at least on average. Karma brahs.

The funny thing is that Bush dropped most of the charges on the New Black Panthers . More over there were white people in AZ with Guns harassing Latin people who were going to vote. The guy how hit the women did hit due to her being white he did it because he was a jerk that did not like what he had to say. A cowardly attack but not a racist one. And the McDonald attack. That was two girls beating up a man for being in the girls bathroom.
I am not going to here and say there are not racist black people. There are, however when you have to lie to make your point there is something wrong. This guy would be the slave telling on the other slave who tries to get to freedom.My log: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=171614803

Unless I am totally misunderstanding you, you have a VERY wrong idea about the man who wrote this article. Walter Williams is from Philadelphia, lives in Washington DC. He was never from South Africa.
And, he is a conservative Republican. He guest hosts for Rush Limbaugh quite often."You will give the people an ideal to strive towards. They'll race behind you. They will stumble; they will fall. But, in time, they will join you in the sun. In time, you will help them accomplish wonders." Jor-El

Its kinda retarded though. Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice anywhere. Isn't it unjust to only point out the hate crimes done by white people?
To an extent I can see why the black community has anger towards a lot of white people. It isn't justified, but I can see why they would be angry. However to target others who have nothing to do with how they were systematically kept down is and should be intolerable to them as a community.
Still, you cannot demonize the black community for the crimes listed in the article. The only thing you could have a problem with is that the community as a whole doesn't stand up and condemn those who did the acts, or make an attempt to show the regret they feel that such actions took place. The fact that they say nothing, that is the injustice.
