This article against racism is racist!
This post will discuss an article publised in 'O – The Oprah magazine'. Please read the article first before you continue. Link to the article is here
Why i disagree with the article
Reading the article and seeing the pictures it reminded me a lot of the white people bashing we saw in the last year, spearheaded by Buzzfeeds "Dear white people".
It is wrong to blame a certain race for problems in society. Even if a lot of these problems originated due to actual institutionalized racism, like the apartheid in America in the 50s or missguided immigration politics in Germany (Not talking about the refugee crisis, I am talking about this. )
Discussing racism is very important right now. We have the alleged racism of Trump and many actual racists sneaking in the shadow of his supporters. To get a taste of this actual racism, please read the comments under a video I made translating a Merkel Speech:
People chanting "Islam is an ideology of terrorism", "kill all moslems", "refugees are rapefugees" are the racists that we need to oppose, but also talk to. I think discussion with these people is the only real solution to end racism, but even I find it very hard, because I actually have a lot of sympathy for the Islam, so I tend to get enraged very quickly as well. (and thus not leading a healthy discussion myself)
Saying your everyday white person, that has a latin american servant, gets her nails done by an asian person or buys a barbie doll, is racist in my opinion. It is hypocritical to blame all or most of white people for the actions of a few.
Apology to @ramengirl
Lastly I want to deeply apologize to @ramengirl . She made a post about the Oprah article and I called the article racist in the comment section. I can see how you might think it implies me saying "ramengirl is racist".... I feel really bad about this. @ramengirl makes great bilingual, that let me and other readers understand korean cutlure better. Understanding another culture is a great way to prevent racism.
@ramengirl You are a great person, please forgive me
