  1. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE tell this clown and all the others like her to STOP framing everything in terms of white supremacy. As a person from the subcontinent (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan,....) she should know there are lots of racist narratives that have NOTHING to do with white people. I'm Australian and we have a staggering array of cultures here theses days AND EVERYONE of them has some "issue" with another group or several other groups. Whether you want to call those "issues" racism or cultural bias or tribalism IT DOES NOT MATTER these issues exist and they have nothing to do with white people. If you ever want to hear some really nasty comments get some of the Asians talking about each other or any of the subcontient people talking about each other. Plus has everyone forgotten about the Rwandan Genocide that rage between the Hutu's an Tutsi tribes? There was not a white person in sight of that mess. Racism is not just a white problem its human problem.

  2. ​ @CyberiusT  A few years ago I worked with a guy born in India and one day he said some flippant comment and I remarked back that his comment was sort of racist. I knew he wasn't being serious or meant any harm but his next comment stunned me. He said Indian people are not racist. So I asked him about various peoples from countries around India and as I knew he would he said some fairly blunt things. I then asked him about a well known incident involving an Australia cricket player named Andrew Symonds who was of Afro-Caribbean descent in India and he said it wasn't racist when people in the crowd called him a monkey. Eventually I asked him what his definition of racism is and he said "Its what white people are!" He was actually surprised when I told him "No its when anyone degrades another person of a different race based on that persons race." This was a guy who was a well educated engineer. There are a lot of people who have been brought up to believe that only white people are racist and they are surprised to find out that's not true.
