| Alarming rise' in Ukraine racism | | 2008-07-10 07:03:44 | | There has been an "alarming rise" in the number of racially motivated attacks in Ukraine, according to a new Amnesty International study.The group says more than 60 people were targeted in racial attacks last year. Four people have died this year alone.The government, it says, fails to recognise the gravity of the problem, frequently registering the attacks only as acts of "hooliganism".No comment from Ukrainian officials was immediately available.Amnesty UK campaign director Tim Hancock said in a statement that: "Foreigners and ethnic minorities now live in a climate of fear."Ukraine's police, prosecutors and politicians need to urgently confront the scourge of racism, not sidestep it by calling hate crimes acts of 'hooliganism'."Hooliganism, the groups says, is easier to prove in court and carries a lighter sentence.Amnesty says that while the government recognises individual incidents, it does not accept that racism is growing in the country.Ultra-right groups in the country, such a... | | By: A Pakistan News | | |

There are African-Americans, Mexican-Americans, Asian-Americans, Arab-Americans, Native-Americans, etc.
And then there are just - Americans.
Some of you pass me on the street and sneer in my direction.
You call me ‘White boy’, ‘Cracker’, ‘Honky’, ‘Whitey’, ‘Gringo’ or ‘Caveman’, and as far as you are concerned, that’s OK, but [...]... | | By: TexasFred's | | |

| E-mails show racism in Secret Service | | 2008-05-10 09:34:21 | | Supervisors in the U.S. Secret Service exchanged e-mails with racist jokes, some of them sexual, a document filed in federal court Friday said. The filing came in a discrimination lawsuit filed in 2000 by 10 black Secret Service agents, The New York Times reported. One 2003 e-mail joked about the Rev. Jesse Jackson and his wife being on an airplane hit by a missile. The e-mail referred to Jackson as the "Righteous Reverend." Lawyers for the plaintiffs said an... | | By: PhreQuency Ent. | | |
| | Is Your Anti-Hispanic Racism Showing? | | 2008-05-06 23:28:57 | | THIS IS BIASED - THIS IS RACISMI want to tell you about a story I heard today. I am not telling who told it to me. The man is Hispanic. His family has been in New Mexico since the Conquistadors. THEY ARE REPUBLICAN. They have served in the military. They vote. They go to church, have jobs, and contribute to society. Unfortunately, my friend’s sister cannot find her birth certificate. She has lost her baptismal certificate. The state of New Mexico declares she was never born. She has a Social Security # and is receiving it. She has her ...... | | By: The Pink Flamingo | | |
| | Special Racism & Special Little Lies | | 2008-04-09 00:03:00 | | NOT READY FOR PRIME TIMEI have a lovely little accumulation of Barack Obama goodies. With each passing day it becomes more and more obvious this person lacks the character to be called a “man”. He has built a life and a political career on a house of cards and lies. When called to task he accuses everyone of racism. There comes a time when it’s like the little boy who cried wolf. I like the little boy analogy because there is no way you can consider Barack Obama ‘a real man’. I go back to my belief that Barack ...... | | By: The Pink Flamingo | | |

| Defining Racism Down | | 2008-04-04 12:36:00 | | THUMBING THE NOSE ON RACISMIf there was a rational discussion about racism in this country, what Hispanics are experiencing and what my sister’s neighbor Steve Cohen (extremely liberal) is going through I think the rabble roused by Barack Obama would be a half way decent thing. The problem, though, is he is re-defining racism into something that it is not. No longer is racism a terrible, disgusting thing, but the new definition is any criticism of Barack Obama. It doesn’t matter if he deserves that criticism or not. Any commentary on Barack Obama’s character that comes from a person ...... | | By: The Pink Flamingo | | |

| | Democrats and Racism: Keepin' Da Black Man Down | | 2008-02-25 11:15:00 | | Oh boy is this one ever gonna get some folks seriously hot under the collar. The article, titled "Black Leader: Democratic Party Architect of Racism," written by Ronald Kessler found on NewsMax.com today outlines a few of the Democrats "highlights" in the neverending Race-card battle.The opening lines of the article alone hit below the belt of the Democratic party; "Frances Rice, chairman of the National Black Republican Association, describes the Democratic Party as the architect of modern day racism."After that, it just goes downhill from there for the image of the Democrats. Rice it turns out, is a retired Army lieutenant colonel and lawyer. So were not talking about some uneducated putz here.In the article, Rice first makes note of how "it was Republicans who pushed through much of the ground-breaking civil rights legislation in Congress." And continues on from there to mention how it's Republicans who are trying to empower blacks to help them out of poverty. While it's Democrats w... | | By: Hoopy Frood Dude | | |

| | | | | Revealed: scientist who sparked racism row has black genes | | 2007-12-27 06:43:57 | | A Nobel Prize-winning scientist who provoked a public outcry by claiming black Africans were less intelligent than whites has a DNA profile with up to 16 times more genes of black origin than the average white European. An analysis of the genome of James Watson showed that 16 per cent of his genes were likely to have come from a black ancestor of African descent. By contrast, most people of European descent would have no more than 1 per cent. "This level is what you would expect in someone who had a great-grandparent who was African," said Kari Stefansson of deCODE Genetics, whose company carried out the analysis. "It was very surprising to get this result for Jim." The findings were made available after Dr Watson became only the second person to publish his fully sequenced genome online earlier this year. Dr Watson was forced to resign his post as head of a research laboratory in New York shortly after triggering a... | | By: PhreQuency Ent. | | |

| | Reverse racism | | 2007-10-17 03:55:13 | | In the latest news reports, it seems that some unwanted elements of society racially abused Andrew Symonds during the 6th ODI. After reading that news, I wasn’t all that surprised. He had it coming. Although I am not a racist or support racism, Australian cricketers had been getting away with a lot of things off [...]... | | By: Cricket Blog | | |

| | Racism and Stereotypes | | 2007-06-28 05:00:00 | | First and foremost, I would like to ask : are you a racist? If so, why do you differentiate them? Well...Yes, how do a child born a racist? Environment? Family? Friends?"Studies going back over 50 years have repeatedly arrived at the same conclusion -- racists have lower IQs than non-racists. The average intelligence quotient (IQ) of all members of the human race is 100 on the Stanford-Binet scale, as illustrated in the bell curves in the figure below. The average IQ of racists is up to 4 IQ points less than this (Montagu 1952 & 1988, Allport 1946, Frenkel-Brunswick and Sanford 1945). The reasons this is true are not entirely clear. Does racism attract the unintelligent or do the unintelligent default into racist mentalities? An exploration of this phenomenon can be most informative."Can you see now, do you want to be a racist? If Racism is a religion and Racist is a race itself, should we discriminate them?Look at this picture. What can you see?Lovely right? Unity and peace. If YOU ar... | | By: Engrish 101 | | |
| | A case of racism: Belgian rejects job seeker due to "racist dog" | | 2007-06-13 13:26:00 | | BRUSSELS (Reuters) - A Belgian businessman rejected a Nigerian job applicant because the businessman said his own dog was racist and would bite non-whites, Belgian media reported on Saturday. The 53-year-old man Nigerian told De Standaard newspaper he arrived at the Belgian's wrought-iron business and was immediately confronted by the barking dog. The Belgian turned the man away before he could even enter, and wrote on his labour office letter that he could not hire the man because of his colour, adding there was a risk the dog would bite him. The local labour office has concluded that the Belgian was racist and has removed him from its list of potential employers. "My dog is racist. Not me," the Belgian told De Standaard. The Nigerian, who has lived in Belgium for 32 years, said it was not the first time he had been rejected for a job because of his colour, although other employers had been more subtle. He told the newspaper that he did not wish to... | | By: The AnitoKid Chronikos | | |
| | Racism Boiling Seething Teaching Living Breathing | | 2007-06-03 03:41:00 | | (Poetryman's Photomontage) Racism is more than a mere visual cue... At its root is fear. And within it an unwillingness to adapt, a seething attempt at self worth, a boiling animalism that cannot be quenched by lynching or dragging a body behind a pick-up truck until the skin is removed leaving only the skeleton. It isn't merely distinguishing one by the color of their skin; it is religious, economic, national, birth, party affiliation, gender, physical characteristics, tribal, elitist, biblical, nationalistic, jingoistic, and can only be remedied through acceptance. In other words, the individual must not only be taught that everyone is created equal, but the world must show by example that each human born under the sun is no different than the next. That each individual is no more deserving of clean air and water and love than the next. A tall order maybe, but one that is within reach because every human, when they are very young, is innocent. Innocent until they are exposed to tho... | | By: The Peace Tree | | |
| | Limbaugh's Rush to Racism | | 2007-04-13 16:57:00 | | In honor of Don Imus I would like to reprint this story from August 25, 2006 and invite the firing of Rush Limbaugh. If Imus' remarks were racist enough to get him fired then Rush's should inflict a much worse punishment. Imus made a joke about one group, but Rush gets them all.By KanreiIt appears Survivor is going to try a battle of the races next season. I just read that they are going to divide people into four groups instead of the usual two teams. The teams are going to be racial in their make up: Black; Asian; Hispanic; White. While that does not sit right with me, I am going to save my rant on that for another day. Instead, today, I am going to deal with Rush Limbaugh’s comments on this as reported by Media Matters.“We've been looking at this here amongst ourselves, and our early money is going on the Hispanic tribe, providing they stay unified... if they start fighting for supremacy amongst themselves, that could lead to problems. But our early money is on them anyway,... | | By: The Kanrei Home for Wayward Lemmings | | |
