i dont consider humanity having a race. unless you say the human race. the only reason that fallacy considered a thing is because it was institutionalized to keep indentured servents and poor europeans from uniting with slaves to overthrow the rich in the colonial period of US history. if humanity actually had races, there would be many different species of humans like there is with dogs and cats. but there is only one human species, therefore only one race.

Actually the slave trade started because some African tribes caught other tribes and sold them to the Europeans and Arabs. Edit: stop blaming the Jews that's a flat out lie

I see someone of a different race my first thought isn't of racism and if it is, that's what he's talking about. The ignorance.
You know i just gotta be honest here. Forgive me if you disagree, I don’t mean any disrespect to anyone. But damn does it get old hearing Stephen a always play the victim card because of race (him not being only one/Shannon). I’m not saying there’s no validity/truth there because there is. his argument base is right but its all the extra “victim” claiming that almost discredits him to me personally. And yes, as a white 28 y.o man ill never know the true extent of what its like to be black and I don’t say/act like i do know/get their struggle. Im also not gonna act like most and say “im not racist” because i do harbor a little resentment toward certain blacks(gangsters/wanna be gangsters) due to being stolen from/robbed/at gunpoint/ and literally running on foot like a bitch from a group of 3 when they were chasing me & trying to rob me. ( was homeless for 4 yrs.) BUT.. I’ve had same experiences from white groups minus me running and being at gunpoint. So forgive me for being real I don’t trust and avoid ppl that look/act a certain way because of past exp. the point of all this being i could understand certain feelings toward another race but to constantly play the victim and make it out that “the entire race” white or black is out to get u is b.s. again blacks have it rougher than whites in America; I acknowledge that. Don’t truly understand what its like BC IM NOT BLACK. But Stephen a saying there is “no stress greater than being black day in/day out.” What about cancer patients, schizos, targeted individuals, etc.? sorry for all this i just cant stand todays “victim” age shit just gets old whether its about race, sexuality, or w.e.
They need more diversity in their players... as a white man, it’s racist. It’s like college they should have to meet a certain requirement of diversity. I mean it’s only fair.
Im not asking thhis out of ingorance, but what difficulties do black players face that white players dont face, honestly asking caus3 as someone who isnt a fan what i usualy hear is hoew white guys have a harder time in basketball
Nols well there are 2 incidents that come to mind. The thabo sefalosha incident that he talks about in his article, and the incident with the bucks bench player whose name I can’t remember rn. Sefalosha had his leg broken and was thrown in jail just for all charges against him to be dropped, and the bucks guy was assaulted by what can only be described as a gang of cops for illegal parking. I hate playing this card, but a 6’8 white basketball player wouldn’t have been assaulted like this in either situation.
The most telling piece of the story was when Korver states he was dismissive or detached from black issues. He stated that he immediately blamed both the black NBA players when they had certain issues. Now this is coming from a dude who's spent the last 16 years around predominantly black dudes. Riding buses and planes with them. Eating with them. Watching and studying and working alongside them in a much more intimate setting than most people do with their co workers. And he still had the prevailing American attitude. So if this dude can have that attitude after all those experiences, imagine what the average person who just has a cubicle down the aisle from a black person thinks.
Racism ends when you stop talking about it. Thank you Kyle Korver for bringing it back up, sparking debates, and increasing the racism - great job 👏🏻 we need to make progress, not complain and cry
Korver was spot on apart from 1 thing: responsibility. I am responsible for myself & nooone else. Not all white people. Also black people can be & have been racist too. It's about all of us together but with individual responsibility.
Professional athletes : omg I’m so oppressed i make millions of dollars a year People who are actually struggling: should I pay the phone are electric bill this month
As white people, let's take the example of Kyle Korver and do our part in amplifying the voices of POC, being thoughtful enough not to speak over POC. Our job as allies is to allow for POC to have agency. The conversation isn't about our merits or virtues as "woke" white people and let's not shift the conversation into talking about us as white saviors.
"Racism is as American as Baseball" Is so true. No matter where people go you will always be looked at funny or someone will judge you based of your culture or skin color no matter if your white, black, middle eastern, or Asian, etc. Only you can change you. People can't change others. You can only make an impact on someone's life before you die. And it seems Kyle Korver has made his.
After reading an excerpt of Korver's piece from the Players Tribune he said that "we" (present tense) as white people should feel a need for responsibility concerning past actions. Really? You can't compare modern times to that of colonial and the early industrial age. Yes, America was and still is rooted in racism, but to think that every white person that is lived in this country was a rich, old money racist living in a plantation dictating orders to his slaves is beyond ignorance. People come from different backgrounds from poverty to the 1% and really it is not about White Privilege, but rather Financial/economic Privilege. If you work hard on your craft and use it to your advantage, you are going places.
They literally get paid millions of dollars, have millions of fans, have multiple houses, insured their families well being, and have the privilege of living the American Dream. All because they play basketball, how in the hell are people complaining.
Calling out racial discrimination and bias in society doesn't mean you have white guilt. It means you have empathy for your fellow citizens. Only people insecure about the morality of American history tell other whites theu have "white guilt"
While I agree that white colonials were to blame for a lot of misery in the past (although, the fact that many africans in positions of power like Shaka Zulu are just as culpable). I fail to see how I -- a white male born at the end of the 20th century -- should either be held responsible, or be expected to apologize for the actions of people that have the same colour of skin as myself yet who resided over 15000km away from me more than 3 centuries ago. It is even more ludicrous to expect me to somehow fight to "right a wrong" when I was never responsible for what unfolded in the first place.
Kallum Rodwell nobody is asking u to apologize for slavery, systematic racism is the problem and minority’s can’t change it alone because in a democracy the majority always wins ( which goes without saying its white). Don’t feel like you did something wrong, but the system never changed from the 60s
White privilege is a myth, Kyle Korver is where he is because he put in the work and is one of the best knockdown shooters not because he’s white. It boils down to parenting , passing down these disgusting racial beliefs. But to say that someone is privileged because They are white is just stupid everyone in life has problems their are white people out there struggling to feed their children which I can speak from experience my mum single handily raised me and my brother without any help from my father . The way people of any creed, colour and sexuality make it in this world is by working hard blaming your problems on race is disrespectful to your ancestors who faced serious hardships because they were born a different colour because in 2019 I don’t see people getting lynched, I don’t see bars where people are divided because of their skin colour but what I do see is a world where a black or white man can be president, a world where a black or white man can make millions off their talent and hard work and a world where anyone can be successful. It’s confusing that the people telling you privilege exists are making millions living in massive houses when they should be telling you that they live in these houses and earn the money they do is because they have worked hard for it , it teaches anyone listening that they should blame race which is THE PROBLEM because it is false and gives people an excuse.
African Americans are not the only group that lost their homes, freedom, rights, dignity, etc. You’ll never fix racism without accepting the fact that everybody is a racist in some form.
I think there was one very important piece of that article Korver wrote that needs to be talked about and that the idea of White Guilt over White Responsiblity. Korver brought up the fact that White people shouldn't feel guilty or made to feel guilty for the things they weren't involved in but the should take responsibility in not only speaking out against but also helping make things better
Yes, that is the mistake that the media makes. They paint it out like white should feel guilty about something that they don't support just because their ancestors engaged in that behavior.
As soon as the justice system starts working in a way that makes that possible. How many cops have shot an killed an unarmed black man and kept his freedom. How many of us have to be imprisoned for the higher ups to ask themselves is this really just or does the system and by proxy us have a racial bias.
Ben Simmons I’ll pray you’ll understand where I’m coming from. This narrative that this nation is racist and that white men should be ashamed and apologize for being white is WRONG. A beta isn’t someone who appeases a false narrative. A beta isn’t someone who is about the INDIVIDUAL and not the RACE of another person. But you feel the way you feel man, God bless you.
@@Mr11x2 this nation is extremely racist and prejudiced and all those nasty things. Theres way too much evidence to argue otherwise. But whites should not be ashamed of being white they should be ashamed that their fellow human beings are being herded up and gunned down and they say nothing. They dont speak out. The majority just sits back and feels sorry for us. And that doesnt help anyone. Youd want ur neighbor to speak up if he knew the hardships u went threw and u knew that his voice would help. And youd be disappointed that he doesnt at least say anything. All we need is for white ppl to acknowledge that these things exist at least.
Ben Simmons you say God isn’t real? Man are you lost... you are very, very lost. I pray and hope you find the truth that your Lord and father in heaven can only bring you. And this nation is not the most racist. I can argue it’s the least racist. If this country was as racist as you say then there would be no Lebron James, or a Denzel or so on and so forth. This identity politics you promote is very sad and divisive. This false boogey man you call racism is simply on life support, the only ones that keep it alive are the ones that promote this identity politics. Now I know there are racist people out there, but it’s not near as bad as people like you make it out to be. But I digress on this issue for now... like I said before, GOD bless you man, I hope you find him and his truth. Stop making blacks out to be nothing but victims, they’re better than that. We’re all better than that, we just have to start holding ourselves accountable and trusting in the Lord our father. Have a good one, and one again, GOD BLESS.

@Tod Wilkinson not true either Jews were forced to work in banks because anti-semites wanted to watch them. Hollywood was founded Harvey Hollywood Wilcox who was not Jewish.

@@hwhitemanbad8211 just because you have higher IQ than these colored people doesn't make you privileged. There is no affirmative action for straight White males.

@@ihavethepower9464 it was not based on race. White people had white slaves here in America too. The Anglo people who had Africans as slaves merely saw them as tools and nothing more. They were cheaply to sell by the African warlords therefore they went to Africa to buy and trade goods for tools.

Once upon a time Sthepen A didnt get any credit to jeremy lin for linsanity. Just saying...
Well it was a flash in the pan. Where is Linsanity now? He had a good 10 game stretch, and people wanted folks to go crazy and gush over that. He reverted immediately back to who he really was. Troy Hudson years ago had a great playoff run on the Timberwolves vs the Lakers. He got a big contract in the off season and was never heard of again. Linsanity had nothing to do with race. It was just a wait and see kind of thing. It wasn't sustainable, and SAS was right not to go crazy.
@@Paul.Burrell Jeremy Lin didn't came back to his former self, he grew into a staring level player before he was a bench warmer. And I can't find the video where he says it but I swear that Sthepen A once said that the only reason that people give him credit for was because He is asian. I think that's a very racist coment.

@@jalyn947 Because, why being it up if it's not in the conversation. Korvers friend was beaten by a cop, leg broken, Westbrook was called racial slurs by a Utah Fan. Racism was in the conversation. You wanna talk politics let's talk politics, racism on the table. But if I see you and you're a different color? Why TF do I gotta denounce the claim I'm racist? You're no different from me. I see someone of a different race my first thought isn't of racism and if it is, that's what he's talking about. The ignorance.
You know i just gotta be honest here. Forgive me if you disagree, I don’t mean any disrespect to anyone. But damn does it get old hearing Stephen a always play the victim card because of race (him not being only one/Shannon). I’m not saying there’s no validity/truth there because there is. his argument base is right but its all the extra “victim” claiming that almost discredits him to me personally. And yes, as a white 28 y.o man ill never know the true extent of what its like to be black and I don’t say/act like i do know/get their struggle. Im also not gonna act like most and say “im not racist” because i do harbor a little resentment toward certain blacks(gangsters/wanna be gangsters) due to being stolen from/robbed/at gunpoint/ and literally running on foot like a bitch from a group of 3 when they were chasing me & trying to rob me. ( was homeless for 4 yrs.) BUT.. I’ve had same experiences from white groups minus me running and being at gunpoint. So forgive me for being real I don’t trust and avoid ppl that look/act a certain way because of past exp. the point of all this being i could understand certain feelings toward another race but to constantly play the victim and make it out that “the entire race” white or black is out to get u is b.s. again blacks have it rougher than whites in America; I acknowledge that. Don’t truly understand what its like BC IM NOT BLACK. But Stephen a saying there is “no stress greater than being black day in/day out.” What about cancer patients, schizos, targeted individuals, etc.? sorry for all this i just cant stand todays “victim” age shit just gets old whether its about race, sexuality, or w.e.
Respect to Kyle korver 💯💯💯
They need more diversity in their players... as a white man, it’s racist. It’s like college they should have to meet a certain requirement of diversity. I mean it’s only fair.
In the same breath the NBA is also racist for having mostly black players....where's the racial equality in that?
No doubt salute to korver, that was big of him.
@Carlos Santibañez I dont think that's wat he said at all but hey🤷🏽♂️
Oh these poor black millionaires playing a game for a living poor guys
Im not asking thhis out of ingorance, but what difficulties do black players face that white players dont face, honestly asking caus3 as someone who isnt a fan what i usualy hear is hoew white guys have a harder time in basketball
Nols exactly right
Nols well there are 2 incidents that come to mind. The thabo sefalosha incident that he talks about in his article, and the incident with the bucks bench player whose name I can’t remember rn. Sefalosha had his leg broken and was thrown in jail just for all charges against him to be dropped, and the bucks guy was assaulted by what can only be described as a gang of cops for illegal parking. I hate playing this card, but a 6’8 white basketball player wouldn’t have been assaulted like this in either situation.
@@KingJinzo2125 no doubt that was fd up but thats a social issue, not a basketball one, soccer has this problem 100 times worse
Nols Explain that situation to me, I keep seeing ppl comment about it but I have no idea what’s going on 😅
Nols ah I see, yea that’s a lot worse than what we got going on here
The most telling piece of the story was when Korver states he was dismissive or detached from black issues. He stated that he immediately blamed both the black NBA players when they had certain issues. Now this is coming from a dude who's spent the last 16 years around predominantly black dudes. Riding buses and planes with them. Eating with them. Watching and studying and working alongside them in a much more intimate setting than most people do with their co workers. And he still had the prevailing American attitude. So if this dude can have that attitude after all those experiences, imagine what the average person who just has a cubicle down the aisle from a black person thinks.
Racism ends when you stop talking about it. Thank you Kyle Korver for bringing it back up, sparking debates, and increasing the racism - great job 👏🏻 we need to make progress, not complain and cry

@@daiyngoforth duhhh, and now it's apart of the right wing playbook...
Korver was spot on apart from 1 thing: responsibility. I am responsible for myself & nooone else. Not all white people. Also black people can be & have been racist too. It's about all of us together but with individual responsibility.
Professional athletes : omg I’m so oppressed i make millions of dollars a year
People who are actually struggling: should I pay the phone are electric bill this month
As white people, let's take the example of Kyle Korver and do our part in amplifying the voices of POC, being thoughtful enough not to speak over POC. Our job as allies is to allow for POC to have agency. The conversation isn't about our merits or virtues as "woke" white people and let's not shift the conversation into talking about us as white saviors.
AT LEAST KYLE KORVER KNOWS HE HAS A JOB AT CNN SPORTS WHEN HE RETIRES

"Racism is as American as Baseball" Is so true. No matter where people go you will always be looked at funny or someone will judge you based of your culture or skin color no matter if your white, black, middle eastern, or Asian, etc. Only you can change you. People can't change others. You can only make an impact on someone's life before you die. And it seems Kyle Korver has made his.

After reading an excerpt of Korver's piece from the Players Tribune he said that "we" (present tense) as white people should feel a need for responsibility concerning past actions. Really? You can't compare modern times to that of colonial and the early industrial age. Yes, America was and still is rooted in racism, but to think that every white person that is lived in this country was a rich, old money racist living in a plantation dictating orders to his slaves is beyond ignorance. People come from different backgrounds from poverty to the 1% and really it is not about White Privilege, but rather Financial/economic Privilege. If you work hard on your craft and use it to your advantage, you are going places.
Maybe blacks are so stressed because of the amount that grew up in single parent households

While I agree that white colonials were to blame for a lot of misery in the past (although, the fact that many africans in positions of power like Shaka Zulu are just as culpable). I fail to see how I -- a white male born at the end of the 20th century -- should either be held responsible, or be expected to apologize for the actions of people that have the same colour of skin as myself yet who resided over 15000km away from me more than 3 centuries ago. It is even more ludicrous to expect me to somehow fight to "right a wrong" when I was never responsible for what unfolded in the first place.
Kallum Rodwell nobody is asking u to apologize for slavery, systematic racism is the problem and minority’s can’t change it alone because in a democracy the majority always wins ( which goes without saying its white). Don’t feel like you did something wrong, but the system never changed from the 60s
ESPCNN
White privilege is a myth, Kyle Korver is where he is because he put in the work and is one of the best knockdown shooters not because he’s white. It boils down to parenting , passing down these disgusting racial beliefs. But to say that someone is privileged because They are white is just stupid everyone in life has problems their are white people out there struggling to feed their children which I can speak from experience my mum single handily raised me and my brother without any help from my father . The way people of any creed, colour and sexuality make it in this world is by working hard blaming your problems on race is disrespectful to your ancestors who faced serious hardships because they were born a different colour because in 2019 I don’t see people getting lynched, I don’t see bars where people are divided because of their skin colour but what I do see is a world where a black or white man can be president, a world where a black or white man can make millions off their talent and hard work and a world where anyone can be successful. It’s confusing that the people telling you privilege exists are making millions living in massive houses when they should be telling you that they live in these houses and earn the money they do is because they have worked hard for it , it teaches anyone listening that they should blame race which is THE PROBLEM because it is false and gives people an excuse.
I’m woke and so is Kyle
Marcianus Valerius honestly u could’ve jus stfu and kept this irrelevant opinion to yourself lmao

RIP Nipsey Hussle
This tells me Korver is not a Trump supporter
I think there was one very important piece of that article Korver wrote that needs to be talked about and that the idea of White Guilt over White Responsiblity. Korver brought up the fact that White people shouldn't feel guilty or made to feel guilty for the things they weren't involved in but the should take responsibility in not only speaking out against but also helping make things better
Yes, that is the mistake that the media makes. They paint it out like white should feel guilty about something that they don't support just because their ancestors engaged in that behavior.
Kyle Korver is a BETA! When are we gonna start holding the INDIVIDUAL accountable, and not the RACE. Forget all this identity politics bull jive.
As soon as the justice system starts working in a way that makes that possible. How many cops have shot an killed an unarmed black man and kept his freedom. How many of us have to be imprisoned for the higher ups to ask themselves is this really just or does the system and by proxy us have a racial bias.
Ben Simmons I’ll pray you’ll understand where I’m coming from. This narrative that this nation is racist and that white men should be ashamed and apologize for being white is WRONG. A beta isn’t someone who appeases a false narrative. A beta isn’t someone who is about the INDIVIDUAL and not the RACE of another person. But you feel the way you feel man, God bless you.
@@Mr11x2 this nation is extremely racist and prejudiced and all those nasty things. Theres way too much evidence to argue otherwise. But whites should not be ashamed of being white they should be ashamed that their fellow human beings are being herded up and gunned down and they say nothing. They dont speak out. The majority just sits back and feels sorry for us. And that doesnt help anyone. Youd want ur neighbor to speak up if he knew the hardships u went threw and u knew that his voice would help. And youd be disappointed that he doesnt at least say anything. All we need is for white ppl to acknowledge that these things exist at least.
Ben Simmons you say God isn’t real? Man are you lost... you are very, very lost. I pray and hope you find the truth that your Lord and father in heaven can only bring you. And this nation is not the most racist. I can argue it’s the least racist. If this country was as racist as you say then there would be no Lebron James, or a Denzel or so on and so forth. This identity politics you promote is very sad and divisive. This false boogey man you call racism is simply on life support, the only ones that keep it alive are the ones that promote this identity politics. Now I know there are racist people out there, but it’s not near as bad as people like you make it out to be. But I digress on this issue for now... like I said before, GOD bless you man, I hope you find him and his truth. Stop making blacks out to be nothing but victims, they’re better than that. We’re all better than that, we just have to start holding ourselves accountable and trusting in the Lord our father. Have a good one, and one again, GOD BLESS.
