Somehow it's okay for black people to make all kinds of fun and jokes at the expense of white people. ( Or any other race really) But when white people do the same, it's racist. The term "reverse racism" is absurd, because racism is racism regardless of which race it comes from.
The same with women/men, gay/straight, whatever. Wherever discrimination is involved, there always seems to be this horrible double standard where the discriminated get away with all kinds of things as long as they are doing it to the percieved "discriminators". *Thinks of BET's comedy show- every joke is about how stupid white people are.*


Just my opinion and you know what they say about those...
racism isn't just about one race hating another race. it's about one race having the power to hate and discriminate against another race, not only on the palyground where the white kid is making fun of the black kid, but in real life, in jobs, communities...everywhere. and white people have never had to feel that, they've always been the ones to discriminate against every other race there is in the world at some time or another in history. so they don't know what realy racism is. they just don't like being at the wrong end of a white person joke...JMO
