That statement itself is a racist statement. Being alive in the US in 2018 as a minority is being saturated with oppression. Instead of condemning the powerless, or calling a group "them" (eww), try using empathy. Try getting out of your own perspective and seeing the world through the eyes of someone who has to live everyday fighting for each shred of power they have.
At the very least, try and start believing a group of people when they scream racism. Especially when that group has been screaming the same thing for 300 years.
Try living some where other than the US for a while and you will discover what racism really is! In Africa for example people are often hacked to pieces because they are from the wrong tribe. Slavery still exists in Africa and parts of the Middle East. Arab countries hold thousands of blacks and asians in slavery. The US just had a black President who became President because a lot of white people voted for him. Many of the highest paid athletes in the country are minorities. Many of the top doctors in the country are black. Blacks are in positions of power in industry, sports, politics and the media. If you are waiting for the day when everyone sees things your way, you will wait along time. Use a little empathy yourself. I know blacks who immediately assume every white person they meet is a racist. THAT is racist!
