If White People Thought About Race Like People Of Color 

+Ife igbekele You're probably very insecure about your race then, because I've never felt like that. Be proud.

.......

+Ivana Mashimoha I'm secure about my race and I still feel these things.

Ivana Mashimoha I get what you're trying to say, but the logic behind it wasn't exactly making sense to me.

+Ivana Mashimoha Because race and skin color is such a big part of society and shapes the way people are treated/how they are seen by others, you don't need to be insecure about your race to have the same thoughts presented in this video.

lol right

But when white people make satire about "colored people" it's racist

+CrAzYDUde2587 That's because the definition of satire is comedy that makes fun of people who are on the top.

+CrAzYDUde2587 That's because the definition of satire is comedy that makes fun of people who are on the top.

+CrAzYDUde2587 because there's a history of oppression, exploitation, abuse, enslavement and murder behind that "satire" maybe?!

Lol yup. I don't go or stay anywhere if I'm the only black person.

What's the first thing you think of when you hear "suicide bomber" then?

I was just thinking that hahahaha

@@wastehazey6468 A muslim.

why? it's not like all caucasians are going to be branded as terrorists if one white person shoots up a school.

I’m sorry what who on earth blames white people for school shootings like I’ve never seen that I’ve only seen people blame other races for crimes

+Ted Erichsén stop victim blaming.

Yeah you're right white people know nothing about oppression. Let's take a minute to talk about the holocaust.

+shlqrsh you can't just take every "white" culture and group all of their histories together, abandoning their distinct and individual cultures and ethnicities. Next you'll be uniting all "yellow" cultures under the histories of the Huns, Khan, and Khmer Rouge, and tying all "black cultures" to child soldiers, slavery, cannibalism, Mugabe, and Idi Amin.

+Ted Erichsén the people doing the oppressing are the ones that need to grow up instead of victim blaming.

+Marissa Hunter there's a difference between being oppressed by another race and being oppressed by your own race. Jews were persecuted because of their religion I'm not talking about religion in talking about race

+Amir Asadi why do you want to know? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Oooooh my (6v6)

Like 9/11 I think

+Kamila Peters 9/11 was just a couple thousand people haha

yeah

But tbh technically we are. We are literally genetically different. Not saying we should be treated any different, but...

@@conorio1646 oh I agree with that. In fact I find the genetic differences between races very fascinating. It just think it's getting kind of redundant how people seem to highlight them almost on purpose as a divider. I'm not saying it's an intentional division, that's just how it kind of seems to me.

Luna Moon exactly. The only reason I brought this up, is because most people say “every race is the same”, but they’re not. We’re genetically different, and therefore speak, act, and learn differently.

@@conorio1646 true. And we grow in different ways because of the difference in our customs. We are all worth exactly the same and we should be equal in the eyes of the law, but, as far as it goes we are different. Mentally and physically. But worth the same.

ok 。good for you 。

nah

Eh only white chocolate

Barack Trump so...light skins?

+Champagne Luigi i like marshmallow girls.

+George Neal yea islam needs a reformation The Abrahamic Religons as a whole are a bad school. Couldve been more like Buddhism and other far east religons those ones are more about peace than sins.

same

+Kahler Nygard it's not the same 😂😂 when a white guy shoots up a school it's in the news for 2 secs and it's dismissed by the majority as a one off but when a Muslim or someone who "looks" Muslim does something it's the main thing for the next week and their religion and ethnicity is highlighted non stop.

+Hannah Allawi when I was 12 in lower school this boy and I got in a argument on the football pitch so he called me "Brittany spears wanna be" and pulled my scarf off best believe he regretted it kick him so hard he bleed😂😂 I got suspended but sooo worth it.

+Black Arrow omg you make me wish I knocked the teeth out the racist dude honestly I don't like violence but congrats lmao 😂

Dennis Staughton I always get made fun of for being being white and I'm not as offended or defensive as other races would be, but it does get annoying and the way everybody talks about white people makes it hard to be comfortle with myself

I'm black too. It's so accurate...

+Saphire Chaplain buzzfeed always has a anti white agenda

Ante Prs uuuuummmmm no. No they don't.

Saphire Chaplain yeah with there 33 question white 24 black and asain have for white but never had white ask blacks or asians they have a anti white agenda most anti racist today are anti white and so are you if you ignore this facts

Ante Prs Well to start with I'm white so I'm obviously not going to be against myself. Secondly white people in America have the upper hand. Especially white men and it's stupid to ignore that privilege or say it doesn’t exist. And no I'm not one of those idiots who thinks you can't be racist towards white people. Of course you can. But that doesn't mean that these video's are.

+Damon242 the suffix "ism" means "systematic"... i thought that meant the word encompasses institutional racism? and that's why reverse racism isn't a thing, but instead discrimination against white people is simply discrimination, not institutional, and not racism.

+succubus the suffix more commonly refers to practice (or even a system of practice, eg. consumerism). Institutional racism is very specific and and is more like a byproduct-racism, dealing with majorities and minorities and general automatic-intolerance of the minority (like the historical issues of U.S citizens vs immigrants), but it's used incorrectly by some to provide exemption of what would otherwise be objective racist behaviour because they perceive themselves as a member of the minority. It's really only meant to be used in an academic context to understand racist behaviour and the reasons why particular behaviours and perceptions exist, not to determine whether someone is or is not being racist. Racism is very clear, however, and it's any expression of discrimination based on skin colour or ethnicity. So vilifying, stereotyping, or belittling a group based on the colour of their skin or their ethnic group is racism regardless of what the greater social context is.

+RAE-Mischel Thompson-Cooper I'm sorry, but that's simply incorrect. You're looking into the reasons for racist ideas and behaviours, of which is the correct context for discussing institutional racism, but the actual expression/action is racism. What do you consider it to be when two different institutions meet and there is discrimination based on race/ethnicity/skin colour? Would you then accept racism as racism or would you need to weigh up the institutions first? An African-American goes to China and makes fun of the way the Chinese look, or a Chinese person goes to the U.S and makes fun of the way an African-American looks - does geography and politics then matter? Adding so many layers to what is simple discrimination only encourages further discrimination, once people believe that there are exemptions.

+RAE-Mischel Thompson-Cooper I think the problem of our discussion is that we are circling around the same ideas but not settling on a definition. Yes, the actions (not exclusively violent or physical, but the practice) are because of systems of belief, but it is when these beliefs are expressed that it becomes racism (it is the combination of the belief and act, as without expression is doesn't exist - at least not as far as observation goes). But there are so many institutions that develop these beliefs, from family to social circles to neighbourhoods, schools, employment, media, etc. one's beliefs are not forged by a single institution. The problem is that people think that there is only one, and seem to identify this one as whoever happens to be in charge (does the president or prime minster happen to be male or Caucasian? Does this agree with the belief that male + Caucasian immediately represents the patriarchy?) or otherwise what the majority looks like.

+Damon242 **add 'white' to that description

+Finding Fay yeah i was asking the same thing... i don't really think like that

+John Lee Just because you don't doesn't mean others don't either. There are plenty that do.

most do

Lol I do..

i do somtimes

@THE KGB what are you talking about. We are all humans, yes, we are all of the human SPECIES, inside the species there are races (white, black, Asian) and inside those there are ethnicities (for white for example: Italic, Gaul, Spaniard, German, Scandinavian, Slavic, Balkan, Normand and so on)

@THE KGB KGB?! Russians are heavy racists, you are the worst troll on earth.

@Niklaus Polson Um it kinda does. Ever heard of DNA?

@Niklaus Polson Oh wait nvm I misread u. I agree with u

There is no race. It just human race, skin color doesn't define or distingish 'races'

Posie Plums real moral of the story: If you don't wanna go through it, don't put people through it.

***** All I wanted to say is that it's not okay to assume that every single white person everywhere has privilege. They aren't all spoiled royalty that can't empathize with anyone who has it hard.

Yes, it's important to recognize the discrimination and adversity that people of color go through. No, it is not important to act like all white people have it easy. There's a difference between lifting up the minority and pushing down the majority.

Posie Plums everyone is privileged in some way shape or form. but don’t act like white people dont get treated differently. for example: if you are a poor white person, u might be racially privileged but not financially. your struggle might outweigh your privilege but that doesn’t eliminate the fact that the privilege is still there

@food forthought1 u crazy

I don't think you get the video though. When ever I meet new people, I do think like this. Obviously, it depends on the person, but minorities actually think about tis all of the time. There are soooo many stereotypes and stigmas around race. The amount of times I've been told I don't "act black" are astounding.

+Belle Ashley same here.

Same

Because you're the obsessed with your skin color

Dova Nova I think it has to do with how in everyday life there are moments that make someone aware of their race and what that race is seen like in society.

Dova Nova How does that make me obsessed with my skin color?

Correction *stop making racist videos about white people and sexist videos about men

Correction *Stop making racist videos about anyone, and stop making sexist videos in general.

D. All of the above

Thats the thing about racism, even if they stop making videos on breaking racial stereotypes, the right wing media will still keep on going demonize minorities, then the society will only getting more and more racist....

-ikr . buzzfeed is trash

You're not getting the point of the message, let me guess its because you're white?

How does it feel to be stereotyped and have your culture taken away and widdled down to a basic stigma? 😊

@Adidas Nike *whispers* Somebody's a Nazi who jerks off to the idea of shooting up black churches... 😂😂 Gtfo here dude. Lmfaoo

@@blackprince3577 ignorant idiot.

If you think Starbucks is somehow the only defining culture of White Americans, you are very racist and ignorant. It's like saying Japanese people have no culture other than sushi.

+Jake Cox Okay, I apologize for misconstruing your tone (sorry, it is text, after all :) ) And, its not me with the preconceptions, no. Its the fact that people use those shootings to villify others and justify their preconceptions.

+Jake Cox Um..no, not really. Do you? And if you do, whys that?

+Jake Cox I watched it again. But the stereotyping isnt done to mock white people. Its so that white people can identify more with what poc feel and thats the point. Its uncomfortable to have stereotypes looming over you. ps. Can I just ask what specific stereotypes about white people did you see? Cuz I saw like one, but maybe im oblivious.

+Cassie Casimir You are amazing. Lol 👏✊👍👌😝

+Jake Cox. No, I didnt take it as a personal attack and if it was said right, it might even be a little funny. And what would the higher purpose of doing a spoof on black people be? There would be no need for a role reversal with black people getting mocked to show how racism feels bc we already know what racism feels like. Buzzfeed is trying to help people like you understand what racism feels like. Clearly, now you get it, a little. It feels like an attack on your entire race and it feels unfair. But no one is saying thats what all white people are like--it is only a satire after all. This video was probably 3 minutes long and even just in those 3 minutes, you feel like its outrageous that anyone would make these stereotypes and these claims. Imagine if that lasted more than those 3, 4 minutes. You hate these few stereotypes, but imagine if you grew up having those stereotypes reinforced in not just a couple videos, but on primetime television, in school, at the workplace. Thats what POC deal with literally everyday. Trust me, if this video was a denigration on white people as a whole, thered be a lot worse than just people saying white people like kale. This was meant to be taken with a grain of salt, maybe even for people to crack a chuckle or two at the satire that they cleverly infused in the video.

Same 😂

Me too lol

I'm the only poc in many classes. Its so awkward...

+l honestly me too it kinda sucks... especially since I'm Hispanic and it just feels weird

"im the only asian in this room." Is me right now.

Blame you comrades for that.

Don't surround yourself with racist assholes in the first place. Where do you even live?

@Gaceri G Super ignorant comment. There are no groups that are more racist than others. It's like saying there are more black murderers out there just because they are overrepresenting the criminal statistics. But we know that all races have their bad apples.

@Gaceri G lol that statement is so non-factual it literally hurts.

This isn't racist. If it was, do you think all the coloured people in the office would participate? It's showing Caucasian people what it's like for people who are not Caucasian, so those who actually ARE racist will have a better understanding.

It's racist, you shitlord. The video perpetuates stereotypes about whites! I'll report you to the authorities for this outrages endorsement of racist!

AMERICAN JUNTA For your information, I am not a racist. I'm a Caucasian female who does not judge any person based on the stereotypes of their race. This video is simply trying to let people know the struggles that people of colour live under, by applying the struggles to a white person. You can think what you want, but you should do your research on the type of company Buzzfeed is and what they support before you label them racist.

Whereas people who are not racist openly say that they are racist?

weirdduck88 Did you not just read my comment? Geez, the internet is full of judgmental people who crave drama. I've wasted my time here; Go ahead and think I'm a racist. None of you know anything about me or who I am and what I stand for, so what you say about me has no truth to it.

+Vickisnotreading Thank you.

+Vickisnotreading it's because of the oppression that has/is still going on in the US. we have a long history w hating a certain people group for each generation. right now we've decided to focus on anyone who seems like a muslim. not only that, but race/ethnicity is important when relating to culture. people like to be recognized as part of their race bc they are proud of their culture.

maybe you should stop putting people in oppressive states lmao! literally tell that to people who are perpetuating racism and then it will stop. just because you don't see it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. and "SJWs" are just another label to put on people who are speaking out in order to silence them. there are people who are speaking out about their experiences with racism TODAY and people like you will be like "LOL STUPID SJW" this is not something you should laugh about. these are people's real experiences and you're just gonna say "nope, didn't happen" to them? ok...

you don't make sense. goodbye.

race applies in a lot of things so no we can't just be "humans"

Amen!

this video is too shite and too wack

True, but sadly, society likes to stereotype people and then make fun of them.

+englanddg I'm confused as to what you're referring to in your first sentence. What is the manufactured issue you're speaking about?

***** Chill. I was just asking a question to get a better understanding from this. I can try to understand this whole thing if I'd like to lol. Your response is not the type of response i was aiming to attract, but thanks for your input, I guess.

+englanddg People aren't getting upset, it's just things we do/think about on our day to day basis to remain being seen as an individual instead of a stereotype, or just being labeled by the colour of our skin.

People don't like to feel uncomfortable. For some people race is an uncomfortable topic. People would rather talk about everything under the sun except for race. Especially American people. America was built off of almost everything negative. People like to push race off to the side and now that it's coming to the forefront and people are starting to talk about it and make plans on how to make things better for people of color, people who aren't a poc feel uncomfortable. They're scared. People channel fear into anger and hate. Walla, you have americans and the youtube comment section on a video that tries to put things into perspective. That, my friend is why people are upset. Because they're scared.

***** How....it's true. The never really teach us anything positive about america from the history books....theres a couple positive things but majority of it have terrible backgrounds. I see you agreed with the rest of my statement.

+ashleymair #damnearthyouweird

(:

Why are you so self conscious? Just be your self. Others peoples opinions about your race aren't your problem.

+ashleymair This was suppose to be some kind of role reversal to make white people relate to people who are not white but this kind of stuff does go through white people's minds. And I've actually gone on dates where the guy im with keeps bringing up my skin color and how it's a good thing for white people to get together with other races. it is always super awkward situation to be in and i can't imagine someone wanting to go for a second date with someone who somehow keeps bringing your skin color up in completely unrelated conversations no matter how hard you try to have a normal conversation with them.... yeah my advice to people who do that is: if you actually seriously want to date someone, do not do that. There are also soooo many people who find it perfectly acceptable to talk negatively about white skin color. I get the "you're so pale" or "are you a vampire?" and "you should really go get a tan" or "OH! my eyes! I'm blind!" That last one being played off as some kind of "joke" to make you feel bad about your skin color and go bake yourself until you get darker (or burn and freckle in my case) I don't know if other people get these kinds of questions but i'm frequently asked things like "How do white people know when their skin is dry?" or "why does your face get so red?"

Ally Smith I'm extremely pale too and I get the exact same questions! It sucks but at the same time, if that is all us white people can complain about, we are very lucky. At least we are not being thrown to the ground and cuffed just for wearing a hoodie, or being pulled over for "stealing" a car we bought with our own money. There are many things POC have to go through because of their skin color. Although we shouldn't have to, I think we can deal with some harsh words and awkward conversations. It's better than being racially profiled or judged because of our dark skin. :)

BRUV. It means people who are NOT WHITE.

Havefunplayguitar Did you have an issue with something I said in my post? Or are you legitimately confused? I'm in Sociology, people of color legitimately means people who are not White.

Havefunplayguitar How is using the completely acceptable term People of Color making anybody a victim? If anything your whining is YOU being a victim. It's a term for people that aren't white, get over it. I have absolutely zero issues with White people, or anyone of ANY race, specifically because of their race. Also, the definition of RACISM is the belief that your race is superior to all other races. I don't think there is anything special about anyone's race. It's a color of skin. For you to be so worked up about how we generalize a term for non-White people while you whine away about others being victims is hilarious.

+f*cken funoodle lol & still I bet you wouldn't want to be treated like Black or Latino or Arab person in America. you just can't relate , maybe because you've never asked or because you don't care .... that's cool. but you can't tell me that this isn't real , because this is the life a lot of us live as people of color

& if this is hate , wow you really couldn't be a person of color in America ... it's just the thoughts of Asians , Latinos , Middle Easterners, Black , any person that different than white. It just looks like hate now because this is not your reality. This is a norm for us. So instead of being offended , you should think wow this is what people that don't look like me think about daily.

+f*cken funoodle no where in this video or in my comments did anyone say all white people hate other races. I said these are things that people of other races deal with deal with & you can't tell people not to feel this way. again because you don't deal with them doesn't make it unrealistic. it's like telling a black mother "don't tell your child to keep their hands visible because not all cops shoot if you put your hands in your pocket". it's not unrealistic to have this thought process. my father has this thought process. my name is Sophia. I went to an all white school. you & I can both say "I deal with this simply because I'm different in a way I cannot control." but if I say it's because I'm black it makes my fears less real than yours?

+f*cken funoodle I'm done. so I'm guessing racism is an unrealistic thing too ... I'd love to live in the America you do.

+f*cken funoodle is this not being aware of how others think? so there shouldn't be an outlet for our thoughts because you fear being offended? I don't think so. it's an outlet , a real life problem , not a fear. racism isn't a fear of being hated as you say. it is being judged. it's knowing that despite what you do, there are going to be some people that look at you like you don't deserve what you have because you're not white. we don't live in fear of white people. it was never a fear. it's something we have to be wary of. that's not unrealistic , it's just not your reality. and stop replying to me because you seem to insist on remaining ignorant.

And most of the other ones.

Exactly

I am not from us but I think you guys use the word racism on way too much. Being racist is someone who thinks that there is different races and then One races is more valuable than the other one. that video is not racist they just switch how black people think and they do it for white people. If the video offends you which is not supposed to do... you better read some books and learn what racism is...

@@naphtaliek.m4505 both of you are wrong, being racist is impossible, we are all the human "race". "Specie'ist" is the proper terminology, or even "tribalistic" is better then the word "racist". "Racist" is a made up word with no actual meaning.

@@worxharder9470 Tf... Read my comment again... And that doesnt means that racism doesn't exist. I'm black ... I know what I'm talking about.

@@naphtaliek.m4505 I never said the action doesn't exist, and I don't care what color you are, just that the terminology used is entirely incorrect. So re-read my comment a few times.

+Megan Byrnes first off, im white too, just so you know im not biased against you. but the issue with using the dictionary definition of racism is that it was written by a white man is the early 1900s. dictionaries are not perfect, unbiased things, they were written by humans and are therefore prejudiced towards their writers, in this case mainly old white men. the true definition of racism as people use it today is the systemic oppression of a group of people based on race by a privileged group. in american culture, the privileged group is white people, and the oppressed group is everyone else. the fact of the matter is that in america as it is today, it is impossible for a white person to experience racism since they cannot by systemically oppressed based on race since the system we live in is set up to BENEFIT white people, not oppress them. a white person has never been shot by police because theyre white, has never been asked to prove their citizenship because theyre white, has never been assumed to be a terrorist because they're white. what youve experienced is prejudice (which isnt a good thing either), which is more of an individual instead of systemic thing.

+gdfan45 Racism, how I and most of my friends and peers see it as, is being discriminatory to someone based only on their race. If anyone, of any race, discriminates against someone else of any race, it is racist. If you go far enough back, every race was at some point was oppressed. For example, the Irish (Who are considered white) were enslaved, as well. You can be racist to anyone.

+gdfan45 the book definition is not written in favor of any race, it's the literally meaning of that word and cops of other races have shot people because they are white. The media just decides on what's a better story. They almost hide it from you to create friction between people(look it up). Look up the numbers, there have been more shootings of black cop shooting black people than white vs black or black vs white.

+Megan Byrnes No. Just no. The difference is when a black person is accused of shooting/killing someone, they are more likely to be convicted than a white person whose trial has the same amount of evidence. When a white person kills a black person, they are more likely to not get convicted, whether or not they are guilty, while a black person is more likely to get convicted.

+gdfan45 Yes you're right. Racism involves institutionalized and societal oppression/discrimination/prejudice. Yes, someone can be rude to, prejudiced against, or discriminate against a white person, but reverse racism is not a thing. White people don't have to worry when walking down the street at night that a cop may stop them because of their race. A white person can much more easily find makeup for their skin tone. A white person doesn't have to worry that they will be convicted for a crime they didn't commit based on stereotypes about their race. A white person can look at the media and easily find people their race, most often in prominent roles. There is no reverse racism.

also you need to be a certain type of person to have to think about race when playin music, that's a lil to much

But you have to ask why they constantly think about race. They do because we're now aware of systemic racism and how subtle it's been for so long.

Depends how aware people are of what is around them. I definitely am, and I have experienced these thoughts and some of the scenarios in this video.

Izzy Yes, if we start thinking like the Americans about race then our country is going to go back to where it was in the 50s.

You totally missed the joke, they're showing what people of color think like but if it was that way for white people. They aren't saying that while people think like this.

these people are idiots anyway i mean they do believe in white/male privilege

Oreo- Every race is racist. um, no! You need to brush up on some basic definitions. No other group on planet earth is self identified as a "race" except White Caucasians. Similarly, really no other group as on earth has power over another group enough to inflict racism (racialized systems of oppression) except White Caucasians. Please don't get it twisted.

OREO I liked what you had to say. I believe everyone is racist to a degree. Now a days you have it throwed into your face so much you become defensive about it.

Fine you cannot compare what white supremacists have done to america in the age of slavery to what a few black people do regarding their disappointment with white folks. Reverse racism is just an attempt by white people to feel victimized by the same system they created. This false equivalency only prompts more hatred towards whites.

+JRodax A And where do those insecurities come from? Think it through. Think critically. You can do it.

4EverMe Easy: They come from having a low self esteem or even having an inferiority complex

littlebigphil JRodax A Wrong and wrong. I said think CRITICALLY.

4EverMe Arbiter of truth tell me more.

I went to college to learn what I know.Paid thousands of dollars. If you watch these Buzzfeed videos they actually portray it quite accurately you just have to be willing to care, to listen and think critically. You can take sociology 101 at your local college even community college. Or simply think of race relations in this country, American history if it were taught to you accurately, systematic racism (all things that can be googled as well, if you really care). Or, simply listen to the racist things your friends and families say about people of color (don't say you don't know racist people) and you can understand where the insecurities come from.

+Bailey Cook actually, the biggest concern is being seen as racist, but it wasn't in the video because white people cant talk about that.

You can't understand it because: a) You're not American b) You don't live in America c) You probably have no close American friends d) Europe has been 98 percent white for most of its history so your knowledge of race and racial issues is going to be very limited, no matter how many RU-vid videos you watch.

No just cause you don't talk about doesn't mean it gone racist will still be there

IMHO what Morgan Freeman meant is that when you racialize everything, you're actually creating racism when there was none at first. I agree with that, I experienced comments like "oh that's because you're white"; when all I could see was an unity, the other person saw 2+ sides. That is the fragmentation I can't understand, especially because even if we're from different race, studies from decades ago say that *the environnement in which you're raised has a bigger influence on your behaviour than the genetic with which you're born* (about 60%/40%). It still hasn't been contradicted since then. Plus, I don't think that it's actually race that makes us feel different, but our culture. And since our culture can change/grow/adapt (unlike race), I still struggle to see why we talk about "racism" so much. Edit: sorry, I must be naive to you, but I really feel that the actual problem is cultural problem, not race problem (hence "racism" being irrelevant to me).

CabritSansCorGAMING preach

To Sophia Harrison: umm what are you taking about.. ? Western Europe for like last decades is full of non whites, mostly Muslims and subsaharian immigrants, Europeans are becoming minority in their own towns. You probably just never went to Europe.

+TheLawrence05 in europe, people skirt around things

***** still people dont think like this. Doesnt matter the country doesnt matter the background.

UKCDot exactly!

I'm from Britain and I have since I was probably 8/9 years old. A lot of people do and just because you don't doesn't mean you can generalise an entire continent. Just encourages white people to use your commentary as a way to disregard PoCs voices

Are you kidding me? Italy is super racist. It's worse than America honestly.

Looool true

+EmmaLlanos Like Seung Hui Cho, Jeffrey Weise, and that La Loche, Saskatchewan shooter weren't POCs? One Korean-American, one Native American, and one Native Canadian.

But then that wouldn't relate to the point of the video

yaneisha kat why wouldn't it? The point of the video is how POC feel every there is a crime. We know that rarely is going to be a White person accused of a terrorist crime. Look what happened in Oklahoma. Who they thought was the terrorist? A Middle Easterner. They had to retract once they realized it was a white boy. So... since the media nor the government associates terrorist attack with White people then hey should make it more realistic an associate it to something that when it happens people automatically think "White man."

EmmaLlanos "Career, money and job security is very important to White people." It is funny that you say this because just a few days ago, two East Asians on the commuter train behind me were talking to each other and I overheard the say, "You know how Caucasians only major in Arts?" and then one of them proceeded to talk about how the guy with the B.A. is working at a car dealership (they were talking about this with a negative tone in their voice). I have also worked at a workplace where I was the only white WOMAN there (so you're comment about me being a "white boy" was incorrect), and I overheard the East Indian lady say something like, "Canadians don't care about money." and once when I said to my supervisor, that the workload was "too much" (I actually meant to say please push the two conveyor belts together so the fish doesn't fall on the floor so I don't have to bend over ever time), he said to me, "You f***ing Canadian!" (they use the word "Canadian" as a synonym for "white", I've noticed). Basically, he thought I just was too lazy to keep up with the pace of the conveyor belt, but the two janitors from the night before didn't put the two machines back in the exact spot the found them in. I have also had more than one of my Chinese coworkers point at me and say "Canadians are lazy". They of course aren't referring to people who were born in Canada but of East Asian descent. They are only referring to white people, I'm pretty sure. The Koreans, Chinese, and East Indians here in Vancouver never hire white people either, because they think we don't want to work.

liakla cole probably for the fact that they just discriminated against pigmentation

Because this is racist

miriam tarkocheva Especially when your muslim and you're like "C'mon, another one? You're making us look bad"

I’m a person of color and my mom can sometimes be racist because let’s say a white person do a specific crime like a shooting spree my mom would say it’s always white people but she don’t realize that not all white people are mean and there are some nice white people out there who never do anything to deserve this kind of things I say I love you guys... you should never change who you want to be as a person. And I know this may should like cringe but it’s true

i haven't seen any that are offensive tbh just some explaining the ignorance of some white people, and yes prejudice is a two way street we just don't face it no where near the same amount that POC do and we have social advantages that cloak us from certain experiences like racism because of our race (white privilege).. and tbh i only see POC being rude when a white person is being racist to them first. but im not gonna invalidate if you have felt like you have experienced prejudice before, because anyone can be ignorant and face ignorance regardless of their race.

+anth ony yes! teach your fellow white peers..

MINEBLOWN

Are you American

Karl Quintana Why?

@@greasypotatochip3065 just wondering, bevause some Americans are part black and native lol

@@Kimphat__ yeah, and you're an idiot

mike litoris Anyone can be racist. You’re an idiot.

Umm then the term white people is racist for the same reason there's Spanish there British there english um I don't remember any other sorry

@@eternallylearning2811 yeah,.Classifying all white people and thinking that a russian is the same as a brit is the same as a Romanian. Denies everyone's rich heritage. And it ignore that for over 1000 years the brits hated the french and vice versa the left wants to move us back in time and renew racism.

white people are the damn ones who invented it because they thought they were better than us 。now they face the reprocussions of putting themselves on a pedestal 。honestly what do y'all want

@@imperiald3864 then howcome the word asian exists？howcome the world black exists？howcome pacific islander exists？it's not racism 。it's just what you are 。

@@diva3713 the word asian makes no sense and ignores massive groups in asian. There are over a billion indians. They live in asia, are they asian? What about Russians, Or people for Turkmeninstan. Oh course the word black is racist. Black people are called black, because slavers took them from africa, and their descendants, don't know where in africa they are from or anything about their cultural heritage, so they are just black. When 2 white people get together they don't consider themselves white. They would consider who they are by where their ancestors are from. Same with Asian, Or people from Africa.

+mexicanleporcon No and no.

+mexicanleporcon Lmao what? One, Idon't think you know what racist means. Two, Every black person is from Africa. Three, white people re not native (again, another word I don't think you understand) to Africa.

+Tu51ndBl4d3 What about Jamaica

+mexicanleporcon Originally from Africa.

+Tu51ndBl4d3. oh

Ikr 😂

I really don't understand why people are so mad. The video has race in the title they can just not watch it.

Well I'm white and I'm not really lying when I say I do think about these things too. I mean every race has stereotypes so I pretty sure everyone can relate to this, although they label it "if white people thought of race like people of color"

+cassiemichelle03 If all the comments are saying it is true, wouldn't it seem buzzfeed has failed?

+cassiemichelle03 As a person of colour who are you to tell white people what they will and won't experience. As a man I'd never tell a woman what she will and won't experience, even though she'd probably tell me what I will and won't experience - how to experience it, how I should feel about experiencing it and how I should express those feelings, while also telling me how to be a man while experiencing it As a gay man I'd never tell a straight man or woman what they will and won't experience. As a white person I'd never tell a person of colour what they will and won't experience. You are in no position to tell anybody what they will and won't experience, because you simply can't know what they will and won't experience - given the fact that you are not them..

Glad to see someone point this out thank you.

+GoAway LeaveMeAlone did you.... did you read the comment clearly because i think your lost. What the first commentor SAID was that buzzfeed was trying to show you how your normal social actions and words might impact a POC's life. They were showing you their (POC) point of view, but made it in a white form so you simple minded pea brained bigots might understand but NOPE the whole thing over your heads. They are not telling you what you will and will not experience. And if you think white people experience racism you got a whole storm a'coming.

faith wambui Race Baiting is Race Baiting - using white people to race bait white people doesn't make it any less racist. It just makes it more pathetic. But here's CassieMichelle trying to tell white people what their life experience will be, assuming that all white people have the same life experience. 1) Not all white people are going to have the same life experience. 2) Nobody can tell another person what their life experience is going to be - it's impossible for anybody to tell another what their life is like. It's impossible for anybody to another person what their thinking, because we are not a hive mind and you nor anybody is in anybody else's head.

Raine Weber no I do to! Lol

Cringy Warrior Cats preach

You go

So if it was a video for white people, black people couldn't comment? wut

Rebecca Pennington that's not what I said. I said that you can't relate to a video that's not meant for you. This is for fun for poc, not for white people to put their superiority complex all over it. Stop villainizing me, I am not the bad guy here.

My point was, There is nothing on this video stating "For black people only" I'm not villanizing you at all. And I'm not putting superiority complex anywhere. I'm no better than anyone else on this planet and I've never believed that. Anyone and everyone should be allowed to comment on this. Aaaaand I also never said I was white.

Rebecca Pennington I never assumed u where. Just by the way u were whining about a video meant for poc (meaning PEOPLE OF COLOUR, not BLACK PEOPLE.)

+Andrea Florea It kind of does though. Just like if they made a video about cat owers...it would make no sense for people who have never had a cat to watch and then complain lol. Like yeah it's not like you CAN'T watch it but if you never had a cat and know you wont relate..it's silly

Exactly

listen to the first reply. she is correct

my name is read by someone i trolled bruh really

+Alex Whitton It's just supposed to be relatable...

+cheeseburgerkid , the problem is that it isn't relate-able.. it's racist.

David Welsh How is any of this racist? I can't imagine what it must feel like to be part of a marginalized minority, so this helps me understand at least a small portion of that...

+cheeseburgerkid white people are nowhere close to being a marginalized minority, and the definition of racism is the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races. And thats exactly what this video is doing, stereotyping "white" people

cheeseburgerkid , racism is, like Alex Whitton said, about believing (and projecting) that one racial/ethnic group is inferior or superior to another. If you cannot see what this video is saying.. then you are part of the problem.

+jsphat81 Yeah....this has happened to me before. If it's a group of people I already know, I totally don't care. But if I walk into a place down the neighborhood from where I live and go into say....this figures shop that is exclusively African American art (and so many beautiful paintings and sculptures and oh mai gosh...The artists are so talented/worked hard at their craft!)....I end up being kind of self conscious and wondering if I'm actually welcome, or if people are going to get the wrong idea because I'm the only "white girl" I've seen in two hours. "Nerdy" doesn't help on top of it either. But I really love the beautiful art in some of the shops, but eventually just leave because I feel like I'm intruding. Same as if I go to a place with a couple of my black friends, and no one else is pale like me....I feel out of place (though, doesn't help that I'm shy around new people in situations like that period). And, I guess with /that/ kind of thing, it's not too much of a different feeling as to when any of my friends take me to a club, mixed or not, and I feel out of place with all of the clubbing people, or gallery showing for art cause I'm not dressed up all fancy, I just saw they were doing an open gallery.

+Genisay unfortunately, most black people, and likely all of your black friends, feel this way all the time. Feeling hyper conscious because you know that you're the only one that looks like you.
