White People

So here is a tendency I have noticed in white people. If a white person is talking about someone of any other race they lower there voice and say no offense, or I'm not being racist but... etc etc. Its ironic in that all other races have no problem doing the opposite of this. I think this has more to do with white people being ashamed of what there ancestors did or did not do. Because lets face it, all white people did not participate in slavery. A good amount of white people did, and a good amount of white people didnt. Not to mention slavery didnt originate in America nor where African Americans the first race of people to be condemmned to a life of slavery. This is just the most recent case that a country was built on. Because this country was in good part built on the backs of slaves. Proper respect must be given to the past, but in moving forward people need to learn that everything one says and does is not judged as racist or not.

Point being white people. You arent being racist for saying what you think, unless you use a racist slur, in which case you are in fact being racist. Boo on you.
