Quote:You confuse racist with racial. I'd say the BPs are racist, while the NAACP is simply a group attempting to advance opportunities for a group of people limited to race.


Nothing wrong with that, given that they aren't doing it as a means of trampling some other group in the process.


A nazi group, of course, would be a racist group, in that their agenda is ultimately to eliminate certain groups.

As D6 pointed out the NAACP isn't trying to advance blacks across the board just the individuals that subscribe to their political affiliation.


That point aside let's go back an say their universally for advancing the entire black community. That's fine and there's a place for it, one could argue even a need for it, but it's still racial based behavior which is racist by definition.


Racism is a dirty word today but the reality is racism is just the natural acting our of different social groups looking to advance their position. It's when those groups seek to harm others they cross the line such as the klan the panthers and la raza.
