Blacks are incapable of being racist. We are capable of discriminating so when statements like this get made by a black person I consider it ignorant,  bigotted,  etc. 

However,  a white person on the other hand,  THAT's racist!

This is not true.

A black person can be racist.

If you have a hatred or fear of another race, then you can be racist.
Nah

Racism operates the same on both a micro and macro level. The latter only being able to flourish because of the former. Racism (the oppression & benefit over others based on race), still is the same as it was in the past regardless of it being less overt and "institutional" now. :)

But then you must ask, where does the oppression stem from. If a race is victimised due to the fear and hatred from another race, that's racism. If you discriminate against another race because you feel your race is superior then, you are a racist, no matter what skin colour you are.

Anyone can be racist.

Let's use a mixed race person as an example.

It's moronic and ignorant to say that if they're targeted by white people, it's racism, but if they're targeted by black people, it's not.

The oppression would stem from the racial majority. That same majority would then use resources to exert bias in a way that benefits their group the most, and keeps minorities in check. Institutional racism would be at the macro level of society, and micro racism would be the lower level, belief model one.

In theory, you could say that a black person could be racist...but it really wouldn't benefit them at all because they don't have the same privilege of protection that others may have. Blacks who deny the capability of being racist seem to have an outer locus of control, seeing as they have to depend on other groups for positive outcomes in their lives.

I don't agree. I think Blacks can definitely be racist, just not towards whites, as they don't know what it's like to be discriminated against for their race.
!!!!! Blacks are definitely capable of being racist. I've seen it firsthand. There's racism and bigotry in every race. Blacks aren't exempt at all. It has to be said. I hate when black people say that blacks can't be racist because they sure the fuck can be racist.
mnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

hey guys, white people are never in the wrong
