Is This Racist??

This guy has "Brown Pride" tattooed on his chest and there's a lot of controversy about it. People are saying he's a racist and saying all sorts of rude comments about him. What do you think? Here's the link to the whole video.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkEOAcuquRo

What does racist in this context mean?

Not even remotely racist.

Maybe I should get a tattoo saying better white then black. Now that's racist. (this message was posted as an example of sarcasm, I do not hate african-americans or any other skin tone, except green)

No, sounds like he is saying he is proud of his heritage, people seem to take offence over nothing nowadays Wolls

He's not even brown.

Think about it this way, they wouldn't allow someone with a White Pride Tattoo in the UFC. So yes, the Brown Pride tattoo is a form of Brown Superiority and Racism.

He's not even brown.

This is actually true.

Why can't white people be proud of their heritage now in days, I mean if they are, they are labeled as White Supremicists. Why should other races be allowed this? It is like, why do African Americans and Latinos have their own History Month?

I think it's called reverse-racism.

I hate it when people make statments like this and don't provide a explaination.

If saying "White Pride" is racist, then so is this. Equality FTW.Hexagon_777

Reverse discrimination (also known as positive or benign discrimination) is discrimination against members of a dominant or majority group, or in favor of members of a minority or historically disadvantaged group.

Not really.

That's what I was thinking, maybe he's just a Browns fan.

[QUOTE="TELLMEYOURLIFE"]It didn't need one. The concept of "reverse racism' is silly because it implies "regular" racism comes solely from white people. Racism is racism.TELLMEYOURLIFE

That would depend on the country actually. Reverse racisim doesn't doesn't just apply to whites. But in the case of America, yes.

You should post this topic in a forum that has more black,yellow and brown people. In my experiences many white people are completely lost on how to discuss race relations.

I can say things in a class or in a group of blacks and Hispanics about civil rights and racial perceptions without being called a racist. say it here and boy, the heat comes down.
