A Political Ideology (Tim Wise - White Privilege)

I figure I would post this for everyone. I think many posters seem to forget the magnitude of racial profiling and by it's very nature the racism based on discrimination and stereotypes are racist. And due to that, Zimmerman's actions, be him White or Hispanic or White Hispanic, what he did is racist---because racial profiling is a byproduct of racism.

I felt Tim Wise talks about this best and most eloquently.

Our nation is based on inequality.....That's what it says about our Nation. No more inequality. Let's treat all people with justice under the law.
