Lots of toots talking over each other about racism. YES white people can obviously be targets of racial prejudice which is BAD!! but racism is not the right word to use. Racism is racial prejudice + power structures created a long time ago that privilege white people over black and brown people. If someone says you are racist it doesn’t have to mean you think we are less human than white people. It can be because you are honestly blind to the privilege of power that existed before you were born.
