I admitted it one time. I ended up getting yelled out. The person told me that he was better than me. People who don’t except the truth are the rudest people in the world. If you call someone a racist, you are too.
Not exactly if you call someone racist you either have good or bad reasons to call someone that maybe someone might have actually been racist or maybe they weren't calling out racism when it is indeed present is what we should be focused on learning to recognize what is and isn't racist.
that girl is cute and looks the way she looks because of the choices of her grand parents and the choices of her grand grand parents etc... now that she have updated her views on race, eventually her nieces will also look cute like all children are.. but this time differently and probably never be like her at that level... (uuu racist comment)

NorskVikingen dude, you just grew up in a bad neighborhood with bad parents, kids learn racism. I used to hang out with kids who were brown or black and we never ever thought skin color mattered, a couple of my best friends are from that friend group.
@@tmapaman7080 idk unless u were the only white kid there then maybe I'm not black but when I was little all my friends were black so I chose them over other races
The last girl is admirable for her courage to stand against racism. She wasn't born racist, she was taught to be racist but she CHOSE to not be. Powerful message from such a little girl.
Racism is definitely taught by parents. When I was in grade school, back in the seventies, I asked my mom if she could give my friend a ride home and she said yes. When I went and got my friend and brought her to the car I could see a weird look on my mom's face. After she dropped the friend home and we went home my mom screamed at me and beat me because I didn't tell her my friend was black. I refused to adopt my parents racism and my friends accepted me and told me I was black like them because of the way I behaved. I kind of pissed off my parents more by marrying a non-white person and had four bi-racial children. I don't see people's skin color only their actions.
Good for you for sticking up to your racist parents! Unfortunately, I doubt racism will ever go away since modern society has made it such a major part of our own personal identities.
I'm African and I don't understand why the term "African American" is still being used to describe Americans of color. Nobody says "European American". Can someone explain this?
mdyiya I understand the origin of that term, it made sense 400 years ago when others were "Dutch American" etc, but if you, your parents, your grandparents are born in America, you're simply American. If you want to add race to it, you'd be "Black American", no?
I had a wonderful friendship with a girl in my high school and we had so much fun hanging out at school. One afternoon, I asked her could we possible hang out over the weekend or maybe go to the mall. She replied..."Our friendship must remain only at school; my mom is a blatant racist and she would kill me if she even saw us hanging out together on campus." It stung me so hard. It hurt so badly. I then realized that was why after school she would practically run off to "find her mom" when we were all outdoors. I'm black; she's white. Interesting thing is...many years later, we reconnected on FB and I discovered that when she went off to college, she never went back home to her parents; she learned just how "awful" they were when we got away from them. She married and has a lovely family and she and I are very much great friends again. Her parents, come to find out, were brainwashing her with all kinds of garbage and when she attended college and met other people, they opened her eyes at just how horrible her parents are.
No child is born racist. A "white" baby would cry as a "black" baby cries the same as an Asian baby cries. We are all the same. Humans are humans. We're taught racism.
@@carolynmonkou4526 Oh well, no time to look it up again. You're sure he was Black? Cos his hair was straight. Or, just wavy. He looked brown but not African: like an Indian type.
When I was a child I used to have a black friend from my neighborhood and we used to dress up the same and go to school excited that everyone was going to mistake us for twins.. Racial thinking isn't inherited
i have a similar story except its kinda bad... when i was younger my best friend had a darker skin colour. i watched the parent trap and loved it so i came up with a 'plan' to swap and she was gonna cut her hair shorter and we'd switch clothes and i was gonna wear dark makeup💀 i didn't completely know what racism was and i didn't know blackface was a thing so it wasn't meant to be bad
Someone give that last girl a high-five. To be her age and fight racism is big, but to be her age, and fight racism "against your own grandparents" is MAJOR.
Poetic Nation our kids are growing stronger and wiser honestly.. life is funny like that now that I see it. they see the bullshit racism is because it is bullshit, there's no way around it or defending it. I'm glad they see that even tho American education can be like it is.
Paul Reacts I disagree with some of your views. Racism does not protect what is pure, racism is a lie that is taught/conditioned into the human psychology. Racism is "hate," that is not pure. "Love" is pure, love protects what is pure, and every human being is born with that purity in their hearts. (Whether you agree with someone's views about their race and culture, as long as you show respect to their culture, and NOT practice racism, THEN you are fighting for/protecting what is pure - LOVE).

We all know racism is taught. I’m so glad my parents weren’t racist. At one point, my parents said that they would take away my phone if I was racist lmao. I remember at a young age, I was told “never hate anyone just because of their skin color” by my parents. Racism is taught by parents. I’m lucky to have parents who did the opposite
Imagine being in one planet, we all have eyes, mouths, ears, fingers, the capacity to think. Yet we use these to hate and destroy each other. The things we can accomplish if we just tear down these barriers.
ovo am I was super glad to hear what she said. I'm happy she didn't allow old fashioned ignorance ruin the love she has for all people and friendships.
Because afro americans are a mix of west africans. In Africa there are different types of blacks and they would be pretty butthurt if we all called them the same thing.
Just let it Be. It's been here Hundreds of Years Nothing Will Change A Person's Opinion Get Used to It Lmao Thinking its gonna magically Disappear Not Quite...🤣
Hold up, cause when i saw the picture of the two boys in the hallway no matter which race it was. I thought the one on the floor tripped and the one standing up was going to help him with the books and to help the one on the floor up.
When I was 15, the father of my girlfriend was racist and refused to meet me and didn’t approve of our relationship. The thing that surprised me was the fact that her father was a pastor.

If you put a one black kid, one Asian and one white kid in a room what would you think had happened? They'd start to play with each other until their parents come and tell them: teach them, that THEY don't accept it.
Why her parents put her in a majority black school if their most likely racist too if the grandparents are racists but I'm glad the little girl knows better because it usually just passes down to the child
My nephew is 7 years old and have like 7 friends, all white kids and I look at them playing all day. He's either at their place or they are at my sister's place running up stairs and playing games in the basement. It's incredible. I think to myself this is the greatest times of his life because chances are life will never get better than this for him. Little perfect world for him before it all goes away when they grow and begin to realize "race"
I respect the last girl that came on. On an average basis a child is or isn't racist because their parents taught them to be or not to be racist. Yet this girl seemed to have been bought up with racist grabdparents yet she still looked with her own eyes to check whether or not what information they were feeding her with was true or not. Especially at that age, it's remarkable.
these kids are parroting nonsense and mimicking and gimmicking bullshit related to what they are hearing/seeing . There is nothing shown here in this video that's not known for years. If u live inna mixed environment you'll be less racial.
It broke my heart when the black girl impersonated how a "white" girl talks and acts and acted like it's a bad thing. Everyone has a different perspective and racism in all forms sucks. If a white kid acted like a "black" person it would be considered racist, but when this girl did it nobody batted an eye.
You could say that about the parents parents then and so on. It’s a societal issue that goes deeper than saying the parents are to blame. People have biases they don’t even realize they have
MyLatestFix You’re right, it goes deeper then just the parents. I can remember my grandma telling me that all ppl are equal. To treat others as you would like to be treated. My mom taught my siblings & I the same thing. I taught my kids the same thing. Now, my kids are teaching their kids the same. So, it does go much deeper and far back into generations.
People are so dumb be friends with people who respects you. Date people who respects you. Marry someone who respects you. It is simple but idiots make it seem like rocket science.
So many people go out of there way to force everyone to "like" them today. Its pretty sad. They dont realize how unhealthy it is. At the end of the day, its YOU who decides to be around. Not the family, not society, YOU. Human will is stronger than people realize.
Charmaine Espeut Its rocket science to some because alot of people don't think like that which is infectious to one's response to this situation. if this makes since.
I love the reaction and response of the little girl at the end of recording, she is friends with everyone. God bless these children to Recognize the difference.
This breaks my heart. I lost it with the intelligent, eloquent young man who was talking about being bullied. Parents need to do better. This BS starts at home. Period.
I grew up with parents who were strong believers in treating everyone equally, no matter what. I'm happy to be friends with anyone who loves me as a person. My Dad taught me that I could marry any guy I wanted as long as he treated me right, and shared my morals. Everyone should be taught that.
When my son was about 3 he told me about his gf at daycare. He described her right down to the color of her pigtails holders but didn't mention she's black. After I seen her I ask why. He said he didn't know it mattered. Ofcourse I told him it didn't. I honestly had no idea so many people would have a problem with their child dating a different race.
It’s funny because everyone has the same anatomy, biology, and chemistry. We are literally the same exact species. Color of skin doesn’t change species.
I have no problem when I hear that my son is engaged to a white girl. As long as she is human, she deserves to be loved and respected, in that way we return the honor to her parents by raising her cause she loved my son.
Racism is normal due to the self-defense system in our mind. When we see something or someone you have never seen before or really different form you, the first feeling is not interesting, but vigilant；I It's normal; everyone is racist but on the different level.
racism is not normal...racism is taught. kids may have question when their young pertaining to different races cause they see that eveeyone is different....but it is 100% a taught behavior. kids are taught either by their parents or by experiences with other race based on their upbringing. racism doesnt actually exist...its a manmade creation. no one is born racist.
I had a friend i used to hang out with. When i started visiting his house to play videogames or just do stuff, and met his parents, you could almost cut the atmosphere in the air with a knife. It was so painfully clear how carefull and cautious they were with their words in fear of offending me. You could clearly see they are not used to interacting with people that arent white. My friend didn't really comment on that. In fact, i dont think he even noticed since he kinda was the same way, only difference is he was a little more honest with inappropriate jokes (that he never learned i didn't like despite how many times i told him) I dont really blame him, i blame his parents inexperience with the world. Of course i have many stories of racist experiences in my life. This was just one of them.
I live in Singapore where we are multiracial, about which around 76% are Chinese, 15% Malay and 8% are Indian. When my daughter was a toddler she would play with kids of all races and I never pointed out or identified the races of the children she played with as I didn't want her to distinguish people based on their race. I wanted her to see other kids as people first rather than kids of different races. When she was about 8 years old in primary/elementary school, I realised she couldn't tell if her classmates were Indian, Malay or Eurasian. (Btw, I'm ethically Chinese) She was so 'colourblind', she couldn't tell them apart. I realised it was time to point out and help her understand the differences. This was so she could be aware of cultural differences and be sensitive and tactful in her friendships with children of other races.
When the last girl said “but its like 2012 so they gotta push it aside” Im just here like 2020 Edit: omg thx for 141 likes! And i didn’t even have to like my comment😂
My daughter is mixed so I hope and pray this never happens. Her best friend now is mixed race like her so that's a relief but I want her to know that friendship is colorful and beautiful
No, we're NOT all the same on the inside. There are MANY other racial differences. Skin color is just one. Although I'm GLAD there are skin colors.....- makes me conscious of the 'other' differences, so I can avoid dealing with them.
TheFoxWhisperer What I mean is, what are the other physical differences racially. That's what the other dude was getting at. They were saying that skin tone is not the only physical thing that divides us racially. So, I was wondering what else they think divides us racially.
Cynthia Rapp that may be true, but it doesn't change anything. whether taught or not, the result is the same - the most caring, kind-hearted, loving people getting hurt, and sometimes abused.
The Rap Game you seem to be very religious which is good but I have a belief and what you believe in is NOT what I believe in so sorry if you seem upset that I'm calling myself American since that IS my home and where I came from but you just gotta deal with it.
+Leighton Manhattan -------------ugh !!!! black and white! Double Ugh!. I'm a white male who would never, ever, ever go with a black! Instead of being happy about white women with black men----why not condemn black on white crime!
Leighton Manhattan, I laugh at the way you blacks will back-each-other up not matter what. I knew this black person from America, and he told me that a Brother (Black Person) will always back his brothers (Black People). They can't help it. It is jus in them. Isn't it funny how you blacks want to be around us whites, you even want to marry us and have us adopt your children---and we can't stand you! And you cry and cry and cry to be around us. It is always that word: RACIST! Yeah, we whites are racist---so why do you still want to be around us????? Go cry somewhere else!
My friend was having trouble getting off of our bus, so I helped him by carrying his bag, his mom and the bus driving began yelling at me as though I did something wrong, I still have sort of ptsd from getting yelled at by two older white people for doing absolutely nothing wrong. It seems dumb but it still haunts me.
@@ossboy7774 I dont know, probably just really bad trauma, I'm actually seeing a therapist about it among other situations. That's just one of the racist situations that stick out in my head. One of the moments where I realized what the color of my skin actually meant.
I had a experience as a kid that also always hung with me, I was walking home from school I was probably 8-9 years old and a elder lady said "when you are done with your education go back to where you come from" and I remember being in shock and hurt from that comment because I understood racism by then and sad because I was in the country I was born this is where I'm from and I dident even feel welcome here, but I froze up for a second and then walked home thinking about that all day, that's was 18 years ago now, I remember it like it was yesterday I can play it out in my head like a video recording.
Adults teach hatred period. Children are accepting loving and in most cases forgiving. When adults interfere with natural qualities children possess children out of obedience learn negative traits.
vibster2005 I have to disagree. I think teenagers look at what's presented to them on social media and resent themselves for not looking the way they want to. They then unleash their insecurities by lashing out at peers causing more people to have insecurities feeding this hateful cycle. That's just my, and a few friends of mine, experience. I'm also not saying adults can't teach teens and/or children hate, but it's not very common. Then again, this could just be my neighborhood.
vibster2005 Do you guys know what a blanket claim fallacy is? It's when you include everyone in your statement. Like ALL white parents do this, or All black parents do that. congratulations. you are making the racist statements that this video is talking about
I'm black and I'm proud of it. God created me like that so ? What's wrong with people hating something that CAN'T be controlled ? Stupid ain't it ? Edit : thanks for the likes btw ❤😊
You can't be proud of something you had no control in. You didn't choose your race. You can only be proud in something you have accomplished in life and race isn't something you accomplish being because you didn't choose your race. God chose your race and he intended us all to get along regardless of race.
@@jakedelhinski3849 i get u but the reason black people are always saying they are proud to be black is because there's alot of opression that comes with being black,throughout history even today,so me saying im proud to be black is not me saying im proud to have black skin,it's more about me being proud of having the ability to withstand the negative impacts that come with this identity.It's something most white people cant relate to or understand because they get to live under the prefered skin tone. Black pride is more of a cultural issue rather than a skin tone issue...the problem with most privileged people is that they expect black people to forget the past but it's hard to forget when the negative impacts of that very same past keep following you everywhere you go,black people are who they are because of the horrible things racist white people did in the past,it's hard to forget when u know the history that led to your not so pleasent present...if only u could put yourself in the shoes of most black people then you would understand Us expressing our black pride is simply us reminding ourselves that we are worth it in a world that keeps telling us that we are less just because of how we look. It's healthy to love yourself and to be proud of who you are and if u find anything wrong with some1 expressing self love then maybe you are just insecure about yourself?
Ronnel B R U T A L -- Thank you, Ronnel. I was trying to formulate and put together a response to this that would give people a deeper insight into what it means and how it feels to be Black in America, in particular. You told it exactly like it is. If only people would listen and try to understand the reality of Black life. Yes, they tell us to get over the past (mainly because they themselves don't want to deal with it), while at the same time minimizing and or denying the Trauma that we face everyday from police brutality, the frustration from the undermining of our contributions in the workplace, the little micro-aggressions in stores and other public places, the criminalization of damn near everything we do so they can falsely pontificate about Black crime--inflating those statistics and discarding the truth about how these actually break down. These things are not relics of the past that we should forget about and "move on." These are daily occurrences that we can't get away from and we try not to internalize. The assaults on our mental and physical well- being can be As that simple self-satisfied smirk when they know that they have hurt you, to that devastating police shooting when you die. (...and that part, the dying part, is always, ALWAYS our fault...)
I'm black and I am dam proud of it too!! But white people are always going to hate black people no matter what, I get stereotype all the time by white people because I'm black
Carla Linton. When I was in school. I had Black Friends, White Friends, Italian Friends and Mexican Friends and Indian Friends. And Philippines Friends. I was friends with everyone regardless of what race they were. And I loved them too.
Paula Cerón it’s not taught. Humans are social creatures and by nature we create groups and areas we hang out and stay in to feel safe. Some kids are just dumb and can’t get by that simple mindedness and are scared of someone who looks different than them.
“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite”. --Nelson Mandela
Not really, saying we are one race is denying their history and torture they went through. It's also denying us as white people clearly having all the benefits. It's not okay that it happens obviosuly and I get your messege. Sadly I feel this response takes their recognition for their suffering.
Kevin The best they have lost for a while now this is a dieing issue it's fixing it self for the blacks the problem that's not fixing is the sex segregation
The reason why the opinions change with age with black kids is because they are more aware of how people really think of them. They are no longer fooled by the illusion of inclusion. In other words, they've gotten the wake up call. The naivete is gone.

im raising my kids the same way i was raised... people, regardless of their skin color, are people. im black and have been with a white man for 8 years. i have 2 black children and 1 biracial child( white &black). My kids have friends of all races and they accept people for who they are regardless of their race, sexual orientation, religion, etc. judge people on their actions not on stereotypes or how your elders feel. it is 2017, when are we going to stop dividing ourselves as a human race because of superficial things?
"Current Year' will forever mean nothing. It's irrelevant what date your Christian calendar shows. It's a human concept. It alludes to a misconception that we should be living in some kind of utopia by now, with no hate and racism. Just because that number is ascending, it means humanity is getting better? Our technology is. But humans are flawed and will be forever flawed. We are nothing more than intelligent animals. Just look at the Middle East. They are still in the middle ages. But it's 2017 according to your calendar, right? So why do they still kill people for apostasy, for being gay? Why do they get punished for being atheists? Why are women still oppressed over there? Aren't we in 2017?
T Youngblood my mother is biracial and I can say this when mom is black and dad is white the kids are more normalized but when mom is white and dad is black the kids have serious issues. A black woman with a white man is a step up for a white woman its a step down. The mixed children are still black and a white mother raising black children brings confusion I've seen it over and over. And when I say issues I mean psycho aka crazy.

Why is it that toddlers become friends automatically, who laugh, hug and play with each other? It's because children don't see color. Adults could learn alot from them. My first best friend was black and my family loved him and his mom. He had no father sadly. He was in a car accident. It's unfortunate that children are exposed to this kind of hate. I pray for the future and the kids who have to go through this. It's sad. Take care everyone. 🤗
Redbone Brotha How can you admit that God is within oneself, while simultaneously proclaiming that God doesn't exist? Make up your mind already! Do you want people to "embrace God" or not?

+Ima Farah Isn't it ridiculous how the powerful America is so weak actually ? We have to learn from other people who are looking at us like "is this for real in 2016 ? "
it's because most kids opinions come from their parents because they are used to that at home. Because the parents grew up with racism. so it persuades the child's opinion about racism.
As white guy i completely agree with black girl. You can be friends with anyone, white guy with black girl is normal, white girl with black guy is not ok, i don't like it. It can't be prohibited, but social pressure should be applied to such couples.
