[SHOTS FIRED] Pusha T going OFF on Instagram right now at racist clubowners of Venue112

while I'm not going to argue that America doesn't have severe racial problems, something widely agreed upon is that contemporary racial issues in America mostly perpetuate white

umm..no. There are plenty in america who don't even think racism exists anymore..and that its a thing of the past. American millenias think that racism against Caucasians is more troubling than racism against African Americans. I'm sorry, your giving Americans too much credit man.

Vicious, interpersonal racism like you are arguing is America's true problem simply isn't that common or popular any more, not say that it has disappeared. I think, owing to this misunderstanding, you're unable to really grasp how European countries have similar problems with the systemic perpetuation of white supremacy that America does, in terms of both type and extent.

again no sir. I can grasp just fine. What you guys seem to not realize is that, since you all where born in america and have been raised their...your blind to some of the harsh realities (that you would rather sweep under the rug). You guys have it all around so its different, than say someone who was born and raised in a completely different society, when i come here the fucked up shit. It literally sticks out like a sore thumb to me. And I will talk to my american buddies about it and when i notice or point out some weird shit...and their just like "uhhh yea, man that's just how its always been". Like its so normal for them, but for me (i have a fresh pair of eyes and a different perspective) so its all odd to me. Its crazy how you can literal be in one of the richest areas in america...and you can throw a nickel to the hood, but the area just seems so...separate. like Million dollar home, million dollar home then immediately...hood hood hood....like no in between. its crazy.
