This is what people (white AND black) have to realise is that we are all a part of the general public and all rules apply to us... I could care less if a white man or a black man is in charge... Cause at the end of the day, they are still just the ones in charge...
And that my friend is the answer to racism... Problem is, nobody will pick that view up... Cause their too stuck up on being patriotic about their race to realise were all just spawn of the same planet and our differences are all just pety and minute...

Ok...enough with the idealism...Now, let's come back down to earth. Bro, in America, up to 40 years ago, blacks couldn't even VOTE in some areas of the country without fear of being lynched and strung up a tree. So, all this "we are the world" crap is moot. The facts are these:
1. White own most shit
2. Blacks/minorities created most of the music whites now "own"
3. Whites, in America, have often used their position of power to enslave and/or beat the black man down
4. Black people can, and will, own more shit in the future. But, that's going to take time.
Remember, less than 100 years ago, blacks were still being hung from trees. We're making progress.
That's why I admire black entrepreneurs like Oprah and Bob Johnson.
^^We need more examples like that.
