The hidden racism of young white Americans
This article tells of young white men in a sorority house making racist chants and after a video hit the internet about it, the sorority closed in early march . The article also tells of what young whites think of black people most there dumb or lazy . There are charts of the ratios in the link below .

Young White Americans are suspected to be the most racist of them all . Some are but why are we all in this stereotype ? I'm young and white , some of my good friends are not white . Most of them are black they never hear anything come out of my mouth that would be offensive .
So why does the older generation believe its the younger generation , when it is actually them . They are the ones that cause all the fuss , the younger generation have mixed relationships and get along fine for the most part . The older white people of the world still find themselves not to be equal to others . That is what causes racism , influencing the younger generation that probably what caused
these boys to act the way they did .
If we address the problem instead of hiding it , it might just get fixed ; or are we scared of what that world will look like if there was no racism ?
I wouldn't mind it being gone , a bunch of news channels might though . All we talk about it race , are we really truly that different ?
