As a white person living in South Africa me and my black colleagues joke about race everyday but no one takes it too far or too seriously.

I'm guessing that you're all in the middle class and none of your co-workers are living in the bantustans. Those conversations would likely be very different.

Definitely so, I remember driving through Bradford once and got a lot of stares, was interesting to see what it's possibly like for a black person, except I've never actually seen an entire group of white people on a high street stare at a black person.

I had a white friend in a london school who was a minority as well, didn't have many friends.

Actually friend some of them live in low income housing and in "shacks" whilst I still have to live with family as we all are on minimum wage.

The notion that white people can't be subjugated to the most insidious forms of racism is at best naive, and shows a complete lack of historical context.

Holy shit I think you couldn't have comprehended my post less if you tried.

OP you should just take your L and admit that this shit should of never seen the light of day.

Take a loss for what? There's no reason I should not have made this thread. If this were the case it would have been locked on the first page. The subject was pretty eye opening for me after reading a lot of posters opinions on the matter.
