Best Answer

Not all white people are racist, but for the ones who are, they haven't always been racist but learned the behavior.

As for white people throughout history, racism has always existed and will always exist as long as people allow fear and ignorance to become of them.

Keep in mind, all of that can be said for any one of any color or heritage and isn't exclusive to white people.

What is the Biggest misconception black people have about white people?

The previous answer claiming that white people are racist may have been answered by a person prejudiced against white people, black people or both. Racism and bigotry stink. Most of the people I know are not racist, black, white or other. Despite the color of our skin, despite our country of origin, despite our religious beliefs, despite the differences between us...we are all the same. When we bleed, we bleed red blood, we are all susceptible to the same diseases. We are all simply people. People are people.

Is Eminem African American?

It would be to assume he was not racist because he had a black band, raps with black people, and hangs out with black people. However, Eminem had grew up in a black area. He was beaten for being white. Rap was his only way to fit in. If he had raped with white folks, everyone would see him as a racist. However if he raped with black folks, than everone sees him as a want-to-be-black-person. Eminem has used the "N" word many times and not in a I-wanna-be-black way. If he was racist nobody would care because they see him as part black.

When people look back at the history of white people all around the world, some base their opinions on those facts.
