The idea of race is a fallacy, we are all mixed up and Life started in Africa. It is just to keep us divided, but the most egregious offender would have to be the white "race" and their use of it throughout history.

Come on now.. you're a smart man. All races have their own racists within them. It's not subjective to one group or creed. Now i'm not saying that white people aren't the kings of racism... they very well could be. But let's not ignore the racial tensions between all other groups the planet has to offer. It's not just the crackas.
We all know what most Asians think about black and spanish people.

I wouldn't say it's a disease; it's a financial and power plan created a few centuries ago. Any person can become obsessed with prejudice, but institutional racism is way too sophisticated to be thought of as a disease.

You sir are correct. I didn't, but I just learned it. I've always grouped it all as one. Makes sense now.

It's unfortunate the OP didn't put the full context of the statement...
"“There is separation of colored people from white people in the United States. That separation is not a disease of colored people. It is a disease of white people. I do not intend to be quiet about it.”"
One of the articles that talks about it and a Book for those interested

In tha entire world,theirs no country that has a Black population that subjects other races to racism.

Just because he was brilliant doesn't mean he can't be wrong.
Being ahead in your field of choice doesn't make you wise on all matters.
Anyone can have the "disease" of racism.
Anyone can hate.

I find it hard to believe for anyone to see that blacks can't be racist.
Any conversation with a hardline African American conservative can show you the proof you need.

A Black Conservative talking shit to gain favor of whites DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AS RACISM.
You're ignoring tha question.In tha entire planet show me any area where another race is subjected to racism by Black people.

Our society was literally built on racism. Systemic and institutional racism continue to this day with implicit social support. Racism is woven into the very fabric of our society.

Your request based on the topic at hand does not make sense because what you speak of is institutionalized discrimination.
This is different as that racism, if it is defined as a "disease", connotates something internal where my argument is that anyone can have it if that is the case.
To have institutional discrimination one needs power.
You can argue that the genocides and civil wars that certain African countries have gone through over the decades could constitute examples of that. However, that discrimination is not due solely to racism. There are other factors involved.
If racism is defined as a "disease" (which I personally think is unwise) anyone can have it because it does not need institutional power to come into effect. So I think my example of a black conservative is apt.

From what I understand he said it.
It was a speech he gave at the time.
There is more to it.
