[video=dailymotion]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YK0p0DzZVzI&t[/video]No, not all white people are racist. Not intentionally and maliciously, anyway, although subtle or subconscious racism is a topic for another time. And not unless you want to be one of those tumblr SJW's who insist that white people have to be racist because racism isn't about prejudice, it's about power. Yeah, that's a definition 95% of the world doesn't use so we're just going to dismiss it for the sake of this discussion.
But, here's the difficult lesson members of ANY group has to learn: the most ridiculous, outrageous, non-mainstream members of your group are going to be the ones that get the most attention. So, yeah, we ignore the white people who are just quietly going about their jobs and we hyper focus on the white people flying their confederate flags and complaining about black welfare queens.
One of the best takes on the issue comes from Neil Degrasse Tyson. I've always loved his ability at communication and how he can explain complicated issues in a way that laymen can understand. Usually, he does that with scientific topics. Here, he does it with racial issues. It's worth a listen.
