+1,159 If I say "black people love to eat fried chicken", it's not racism, it's stereotyping. If I say "black people are inferior to white people", it's racist. People need to understand the difference, amirite?

If saying black people love fried chicken is stereotyping, then that must mean that saying black people have dark skin is also stereotyping.

Or just tautologistic...

But saying black people have dark skin is a FACT, which makes it neither racist nor stereotyping. If they didn't have dark skin, they'd be...well, they'd be white.

Stereotyping can be a form of racism when it involves races. That is the difference. http://www.xiaochin.com/identity/faq-ethnicity.htm

Totally agreed. A stereotype like all black people are thugs or whatever is racist because it's discriminating against black people.

But if someone says "black people love to eat fried chicken", I think it could be considered racist because they could saying they like fried chicken BECAUSE they're black.

Well derp. But liking fried chicken doesn't make their race inferior, does it?
