Personally I dont believe you are a racist. You hate the stereo-types. And because a good number of african-americans (that you've seen) follow these stereo-types it seems you've confused that with racism. As long as you dont think one race is superior to another or that one inferior to another you are not a racist ;) I'm half-black btw (not that it should matter)
It isn't racist to hate people because of how they act.
No, you are not racist... You just don't like their social behaviour. Racism is totally different, and more action oriented.
take care.
Thanks guy's
Racism is baseless prejudice, which is different from hating people who are rude and ignorant.
Well..."wannabe gangsters" etc are characteristics which can be held by a person of any racial background. If you call a Latino, or an Asian etc. by whats identified as a racial slur, using it in the same way you would use the Nword, they would probably get mad as well. So the fact that you are associating these characteristics with Black people only....is stereotypical & a bit racist.
Ok, i'm black and i gotta tell you, i don't think you're racist at all. What you're talking about is reverse racism and i think it's ridiculous, if people want to be treated equally, they should equally respect each other.
There's a thin line (as far as public opinion goes) between stereotyping and being racist.

You say you like Will Smith and MLK (which are 2 extremely popular black people) and you hate want-to-be gangsters (which are perhaps the other side of the spectrum)...

So what about on the typical african-american people in the world ? It's as if you choose the extremes of the race to judge the whole race by - how is that not racist ?

I seriously wonder about the "friendship" you claim to have with black people. Is it genuine - or are you looking at them waiting for the traits that you think all black people have to just pop out ?

Black people could judge white people the same way - by extremes, then I'd consider every white person a KKK member, or an ignorant hick or something equally outlandish.

Good luck but I can't really say if you're racist or not but just look at us as individuals (like the rest of the world through your eyes) and stop generalizing.
you are definetly NOT racist theres no doubt about it!!its perfectly fine to hate those who act as u said...for example i hate the black people that are always exagerating the racism and are always talking like we white peoiple are all racist and all that (have u ever seen crush i hated the black kid in that movie).. but back to u u r not racist for hating black people who hate white people specially if u have black friend and idols but i still belive that whatever racist shits they call us that doesnt justify our caling them the n word (dont get me wrong what they say nis unjustified too)
Yes, because you are assuming all black people call white people bad names. I am black, and I don't use terms like, "cracker", "honky" or anything similar, so I don't like when white people use "nigger".

I do agree that it is wrong for black people to use white racial slurs, but it is just as wrong for white people to use black ones. However, it's not fair for you to assume that we all say "cracker" because I have many black friends that refuse to use it because they feel it's the same thing as a white person calling them a "nigger".
