African Americans and Latino Americans plus white Americans who can trace their ancestors back in the Americas for centuries are a mixture of "races".
There was some white extremist who use to do the talk show rounds in the 00s who was found on a ancestry test to have recent, so up to 5 generations ago, ancestors who were black.

Sounds a bit like Star Trek to be talking about less powerful races.
I always wonder how ST gets applauded for progressive views on gender and race, when all they've done is crassly define entire species through simple stereotypes. They get away with it even in the modern series "never trust a Ferengi" etc.

Yeah, I am torn on this whole thing. There is such a strong racial inequality in the USA that part is undeniable. Obviously this woman is clearly, clearly in the wrong though as she is speaking about genocide... but why is this being printed? It seems every week they come up with a story like this. Almost seems like they are trying to rile people up and create this strong black white divide in the USA. You're just giving her hate a platform. She should be de-platformed if anything not emboldened by the media.
There are tons of black people in the USA who just want opportunity for themselves and their family and they aren't trying to hurt anyone or take away anyone else's opportunity... but nobody prints stories about them. You have to start wondering what is the motivation in the media over there.

So less powerful races can now say these things about more powerful races without it being considered racist.
Does this mean I can say anything I like about Cyril Ramaphosa or even Jacob Zuma without being accused of racism? I definitely can have a go at Rocket Man or Vlad?
Oh I see we define a whole race by the colour of their skin so because Openheimer & Einstein were Caucasian its my fault?
Sorry If India & China can pull itself out of poverty the rest of the world can too, they are just to busy killing each other back in the trumphole countries or embezzling the Aid we send them maybe she can be critical about that?

It's ok. By "white people" she means "white Americans". Being an American she simply isn't aware that other countries exist.
At first, I thought this thread might be about interracial dating, which is a good thing, of course.
