Racism wasn't around at the beginning
morbidenigma:
so why do white people tell colored people that we should be grateful we don't face racial persecution as if racism was around from the beginning of humanity.
Bananas:
Racism HAS been around since the beginning of humanity. All beings on earth have some sort of prejudice against the unknown, whether you be a white skinned human or a lowly sardine, traveling along the current with your family.
Your argument is invalid. As usual.
morbidenigma:
^^ no it fucking isnt. Do you research mate, racism wasn't around at the time of Adam and Eve.
do your research and you'll find out the first historical evidence of racism occurred at the end of the 16th century with the start of the
slave trade from Africa to Britain and to America. It divided people into races and decide that Black Africans were considered an inferior race.

lol @ Adam and Eve.
I suggest you do your research. The 16th century is pretty recent in the grand scheme of things. If you want to go back even further lets examine why we have the modern race divide for real.
Africa is the cradle of human life, you agree? And don't give me that christian bullshit we know it's not true.
Anyway, Africa = origin of human life.
Original man = black.
Albinism = lite skin, scared the original man. Light skin seen as sin or monstrosity = banished.
Light skinned people migrate north to Europe, thus creating continent of light skinned individuals, aka white people.
Apparently racism was around at the beginning of man, only it was in the favor of blacks...Well, look how that original act of fear and prejudice turned out for them...
Yes, you're done for the day. Re-read if you have to. I provided a nice concise description racism at the beginning of humanity for you, you have no reason to retort with anything but a cosign.
