Is Black Americas Problem really White Racism?

http://humanevents.com/2013/07/19/black-americas-real-problem-isnt-white-racism/

Summarized, seems black and Hispanic problems rest on their shoulders. Whites outnumber blacks, however blacks commit 85% of crime in America.

"After researching the FBI numbers for “Suicide of a Superpower,” this writer concluded: “An analysis of ‘single offender victimization figures’ from the FBI for 2007 finds blacks committed 433,934 crimes against whites, eight times the 55,685 whites committed against blacks. Interracial rape is almost exclusively black on white — with 14,000 assaults on white women by African Americans in 2007. Not one case of a white sexual assault on a black female was found in the FBI study.”

I guess people have been blinded by media bias.

One of the problems that black communities have is current structural racism. Other problems were directly caused by a history of racism and economic domination.

That does not preclude problems not caused by racism, of course.

So it's others fault of the past that determines their future? Raping white women?

So even taking in to account the fact that there are far more white than black people in America, you're still saying that White people have nothing to do with it?

I never said that.

I'm asking you if you're saying white people are completely blameless for racism/racist crime in America.

It's definitely the "white" power structures fault that white men get away with rape in most cases...

Wait so it's all white Americas fault, lol. I guess all of black on white crime is white Americas fault. The reason the black communitys are in shambles such as ferguson is their fault.

No crime is crime and it's up to each person whether they commit it or not.

So you admit that white people share some of the blame for the racism problem in America, then. Okay.

Where did I say that?

I don't much believe in the current "structural racism" theory. At least I don't believe that it is or would be enough to cause the difference that you see today.

I believe that the black community was offset by the racism that lasted up until the 90s, and that said racism kept most of them poor. And they are in turn being kept poor, along with millions of white and hispanic people.

So is their problem racism? It certainly was. But now I think it's more the oppression of the poor.

Also, almost all black people I know are racist as PHUCK.

aye @ rich and poor.

There is definitely a class and wealth divide that plays into it. However disregarding a) that the divide was created on the back of racism and b) the harmful effects that racism still has today seems misguided to me.

I would argue that whether racism existed or not, that divide would still exist anyway.

In the places where it was built on racism though, yeah, It shouldn't be ignored.

Yes, I agree with that. The wealth gap exists in most places regardless of race issues. It is however made worse by racism. I do believe in an intersectional approach to oppression.

But it was racism that put so many black communities in that position without any chance to build up the tools or networks to succeed.

This study is nearly a decade old. Also, zero white-on-black sexual assault? Bullshit meter is going off the charts.

Oh yeah, I agree, there's a so many layers to the bullshit onion it's hard to know where to start. First of all I think the author is lying about the resource (FBI Statistics), further the resource itself is already extremely problematic...but there's only so much time in the day and so many battles one can fight.

The crime rates and statists exist whether you think its BS or not.
