ONLY WHITES CAN BE RACIST??

Sajid Iqbal —

SALAAM

An interesting email i received. Argument being made is that if whites say they are proud to be white or have a white organisation like other races then they are called racist etc....

Michael Richards better known as Kramer from tv's Seinfeld, does make a good point.
This was his defense speech in court after making racial comments in his comedy act. He makes some very interesting points.

pls read and have ypur say..

[b]
Proud To Be White[/b]

Someone finally said it.
How many are actually paying attention to this?

There are African Americans, Mexican Americans,
Asian Americans, Arab Americans, etc.
And then there are just Americans.

You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction.
You Call me 'White boy,' 'Cracker,' 'Honkey,'
'Whitey,' 'Caveman' ... and that's OK.

But when I call you, Nigger, Kike, Towel head,
Sand-nigger, Camel Jockey, Beaner, Gook, or Chink ...
You call me a racist.

You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you,
so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?

You have the United Negro College Fund.
You have Martin Luther King Day.
You have Black History Month.
You have Cesar Chavez Day.
You have Yom Hashoah.
You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi.
You have the NAACP.
You have BET.
If we had WET (White Entertainment Television) we'd be racists.
If we had a White Pride Day, you would call us racists.
If we had White History Month , we'd be racists.
If we had any organization for only whites to 'advance'
OUR lives we'd be racists.

We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber
of Commerce, and then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce.
Wonder who pays for that?

A white woman could not be in the Miss Black American
pageant, but any color can be in the Miss America pageant.

If we had a college fund that only gave white students
scholarships you know we'd be racists.
There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges
in the US. Yet if there were 'White colleges' THAT
would be a racist college.

In the Million Man March, you believed that you were
marching for your race and rights. If we marched for
our race and rights, you would call us racists.

You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and
you're not afraid to announce it. But when we announce
our white pride, you call us racists.

You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us. But, when a
white police officer shoots a black gang member or beats
up a black drug-dealer running from the law and posing a
threat to society, you call him a racist.

I am proud.
But you call me a racist.

Why is it that only whites can be racists?

There is nothing improper about this e-mail.
Let's see which of you are proud enough to send it on.

I have a little girl in my class who is bullied by her parents, cos she's not the same colour as them.

(mum is white, had a short relationship with an asian guy).

The parents hold very strong racist views, and lucky for them their stuck with a very asian teacher for a whole year.

In the beginning of the year they complained to me that I was giving their girl too many detentions and that I was treated her differently cos of her colour? (what colour?)

Noor — Mon, 3 Dec 2007 - 23:21

if the parents bully the kid then why are they so bothered about u giving the kid detentions or not?

Funzo — Mon, 3 Dec 2007 - 23:25

Next time just say to them, im sorry but im trying to teach your child a lesson, i care about my students well being i want them to learn now if your not going to support me why bother sending your kids to school?

Lol. I said something along them lines - i.e. "if she doesnt do her homework she will do it in detention cos I want her to improve her work...and if you have any issue with me, please speak to the headteacher" (who's a great, mouthy, black lady who knows how to shut people like you up)

MuslimSister — Mon, 3 Dec 2007 - 23:33

Dunno. They didnt complain about me - they prob just b itched about me with the other racist parents. I usually get funny looks from them when they pick their kid up at the end of the day.

I'm not fussed. I love my job - moody parents is only one of the few drawbacks. And this attitude is only to be expected in a area where race related crime is high and where the BNP got 11 seats only a while back.

MuslimSister — Sun, 9 Dec 2007 - 22:21

I did a PHSE multicultural awareness lesson in class a while ago.

One kid was surprised by the fact that he was black, another kid was surprised that I wasnt white like him.

I even had mirrors out and everything.

Kids are so innocent I find it so cute. Too bad some parents hold different views.

Islam is the best religion in the world. It has eliminated rasim. People who truly follow Islam are not racist at all. Only kaafirs are racists. Just look at their nations. They are still having to deal with racism alomst every week. Muslims onthe other hands are not racists at all. We do not judge people on colour of their skin. We do not hate people because of their ethnicity. Muslims love people of all colours and from every countries. Muslims went to Africa to convert blacks to Islam. If we hated them we would never have gone there. We welcomed people of black skin into Islam. Muslims stand shoulder to shoulder with blacks in masjids and when we go to hajj, we rub shoulders.

We love blacks. But kaafirs hates blacks. In America, the land of Satan, they had seperate schools for peopel of dark skin. They even forced blacks on seperate buses. This is how evil and racist they are. Muslims would never refuse entry of a black child into Islamic school.

I just read this today:

That guy in the article is only hugely respected for his scientific discoveries and winning the nobel prize. Science doesnt agree with his claims neither do i, maybe the members of the ku klux klan do but not a lot.

Hi All,

Malik,

I struggle contiually with the definition of racism, but that is probably a seperate issue.

If you are prepared to make statements like this one.

[quote][b]Only kaafirs are racists. Just look at their nations. They are still having to deal with racism alomst every week. [u]Muslims on the other hands are not racists at all[/u]. We do not judge people on colour of their skin. We do not hate people because of their ethnicity. [/b][/quote]

To claim that only none Muslims are racist is nothing short of naive. I have been racially abused by "Muslims" on many ocassions. There have been many times when females and to a lesser degree males have been prevented from marrying white/ black Muslims because they are white / black. Racism is prevelant in any society / culture / "religion" depending again on that definition thing.

Peace.

Ya'qub — Wed, 12 Dec 2007 - 13:19

Of course there are racist Muslims, the problem with Malik is he sees the whole world in extremes and none of us take much of what he says seriously anymore.

If he says that Islam is not racist, then we can all agree on that. That was one of the main things that lead me to embrace Islam, because it seems so unlikely that someone growing up in the primitive, tribal environment of 7th century Arabia would see absolutely no difference between people of different race (apart from their actions).

Coupled with the fact that the arabs of thihs time thought the sky was held up by mountains, whilst the Qur'an (correctly) says that it ISN'T!

plus countless other reasons...

I think that if they were indeed Muslims then you were not abused for your colour or race. Maybe you insulted Islam or Prophet Muhammed (pbuh). This tends to make us mad you know.

Unlike Kaafirs, Muslims would never abuse another person because of the colour of their skin, or their ethnicity. Only Kaafirs hurt people's feelings because they are truly racists.

that reminds me of a talk i went to last week at uni. The speaker shaykh Khalid Yasin was saying how Muslims are the most racists ppl in the world. Most ppl in the room (Muslims) were taken a bit back about the comment he made, even i was a bit confused as to what he meant by that.

He gave this example - a Pakistani Muslim father would never give his daughter to a black Muslim man.....why? Because he is black. He had a very valid point.

Dr Who — Wed, 12 Dec 2007 - 18:19

Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ said in his last sermon…

‘[b]All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over a black nor a black has any superiority over white except by piety and good action’.[/b]

The non-Muslims persecuted the Prophet ﷺ and the Muslims in the worst ways and not once did the Prophet ﷺ point a finger of blame, he won the hearts of people through his flawless character. Therefore we should take this into consideration and not blame others thinking that muslims are never in the wrong. It is against the nature of a mu’min to think themselves superior over another in any way.

Sufis say that when you look at a non-muslim you should think maybe when death comes he/she might die on iman and I might lose my iman at the time of death.

Dr Who — Wed, 12 Dec 2007 - 18:20

Most of my friends at uni are white non-Muslims and not once have they passed a racist comment, even as a joke. On the contrary they ask me about prayer, hijab etc in a respectful manner.

For me race is not only diversity of skin colours but also of language, culture and lifestyle.

What would the world be like if we were all the same…I think the word is BORING!

Thats B.S i know heaps of racists, unless your talking about the perfect muslim

if the world was devoid of white supremacy then there would be no harm in white empowering groups.

in other words the race already in power and which controls the world has no need for pressure groups, but then it is this very nature spoilt by power and greed that produces cry babies with their copycat needs, wanting even with all that they have still the measerly lot of the less fortunate, be it the left over scraps.

they want it all what is theirs and what is yours to have their cake and eat it.
