Add tribalism and religious prejudices and all that shit and you'll clearly see that mistreatment for superficial reasons is no exclusively white behavior.

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.

Dumbest quote I've ever seen on the Dub. And that's saying a lot.

I have it on good authority Satan called Eve a dirty nigger bitch right after she bit the apple.
J.D. Wykid, Esq.:
racism was around before humans even existed.
right after the big bang red space dust captured and abused blue space dust. coincidentally, this is also the point in time when the crips and bloods were formed.
its some crazy shit, yo. do your research.

Don't know about that homie, I would say racism has been around as long as different races have been around, as people are always going to have some inclination to prefer themselves and those who resemble them as superior. And there is evidence of racism in recorded history before the 16th century.
However, I do agree with you that it was definitely taken to the extreme level in the transatlantic slave trade in that black = slave and white = free. Because in previous forms of slavery it was usually the result of a lost battle or war, or extreme poverty, rather than one's racial background.
