My University invited speakers at our annual black Heritage Festival that preached enslaving and wiping out white people to which the black students all cheered and clapped.
The majority needs to recognize that it carries privileges and that the minority (of several varieties) don't enjoy nearly all that is automatically granted to the majority. When that happens, divisions will stop.

Do you think it's helpful to black youth to grow up hating (or being told to) white people, attending a black only college, and then attempting to segregate into the real world?

When your going for a job don't act like your back on the block with attitude, show respect and talk in a calm respectful manner. Then perhaps you'll get respect and actually be in a chance for the job, instead of the interviewing thinking that this guy is goiung to be nothing but trouble. So many times now I keep seeing the Darker Skinned races just looking for the most minute of excuse to fire up and drop the race card again and again.
Well said ....
Ten people up for a job, all with similar qualifications all equally qualified.
Five of them are black, five of them white ... A white person gets the job
the other four white people say to themselves "better luck to me next time
and i will make a bit more effort in whatever direction next time".
The five black people say to themselves "It was because I was black!"

Oh Dear Goddess you said the P word in conjunction with White, not good, not good at all White Privileges is a myth that's what your detractors will say, and should not be stated as long as there are whites who are just getting by or as broke as any broke AAs or others, be prepared to be pelted with verbal rocks.

The problem I see is that the majority of people like to take the easy lazy route and blame everything on racism when sometimes people are just @holes.
Alot of the same things happen to white people as well.

I had assumed you had posted from the US, but I see you are actually in
Japan? This being an international board there must be variations on subjects
discussed, and I was posting from a UK viewpoint.
TV which should give a reasonable indication of the disbursement of employment
v colour. On news, reporting,discussions and live programmes it seems to me we
have a fair mix.
Moving on to real life doctors dentists hospitals and retail etc. again a fair mix
so I can only speak as i find.
Edit to add whats it like in Japan?
however there are real racism involved here much of it subtle until recently more in your face
