No, but history shows that white people have done the most bad things, especially things against other races.

I can agree with that. But it’s also a statement which must be taken into context. 

Races around the world have treated their own races and those from competing tribes and factions with unimaginable horror, including cannibalism, slavery, rape and mass murder. The context is the history of exploration and colonialism. What other race spent the middle centuries in world exploration and conquest on the scale of Europeans? The races which didn’t were satisfied with doing their marauding in relative proximity. The point being, Europeans do not have a monopoly on doing “bad things”, far from it. They just did it on a larger stage.
