Some food for thought. "That's awfully white of you" indicates there is a different way white people act from others. That actually sets back strides in racism quite a bit. People like you that say things like that make Nazis and white supremacists very happy as they think white people think different as well. They believe they think superior.

Hitler agreed with them.

I tend to see humans, and not color. I don't believe there is a way WHITE people act and a way BLACK people act and a way ASIAN people act. Yes, there are cultures people are raised in but that is a construct. It is not actually part of their genetics, or being human.

The smart people that strove to get "equal" rights... not "special" rights wanted such things as "A black man does X", and "that is so like a white man" to go away.

That is the seed of where it all starts. A group deciding they are different and that ALL others of another group are a certain way. It is very primitive thinking that has nothing to do with color, but simply a lack of our education system covering critical thinking worth a damn. They really don't. It is a shame too as if ALL of us had such education I don't think we'd be having such discussions and I believe racism and most other bigotry would be a non-issue. They don't really stand up to critical thinking. The problem is that critical thinking is not telepathy. You cannot force another person to internalize and know what generalizations are and why they are false, or why an appeal to authority is not proof.

There is no WHITE way of doing things, no BLACK way. There are simply different ways. People can be assholes and racist regardless of color. They can be bigots too.
