Where lurks malevolent racism?


Frat House racism is nothing new. Is there any truly privileged group not touched by a certain contempt for the inferior masses? But the drunken, Animal House racism of spoiled brat frats can be  slept off. These kids rarely join the KKK or the American Nazi Party.

Much more malevolent is the racism taught to working class kids – reported but ignored by the news media, in Marine Corps Boot Camp: "KILL**** BABIES"? And then they go out and disgrace America with their very real war crimes– in Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq.

Racism is rooted in imperialist capitalism. It won't go away until we have a more humane social system -which I call Socialism.
