According to the rich white liberals that run things, racism in America beings and ends with white people from the South. It's racist to question bilingualism. It's racist to expect people living here to know enough English that they don't confuse oral sex terms with cannibalism. It's racist to expect foreigners to assimilate or learn American history and culture, even if those lessons include the American ideals of equality and opportunity for everyone. It's racist even to say America HAS a culture. Rich white liberals love to crow about California becoming a majority minority state, essentially bragging about how great it is that whites are dying off or being displaced. (Their standard refrain: "Are you Native American? Gee your ancestors should've asked permission before coming here. And you do know that California used to belong to Mexico, right?") Oh blacks? They don't exist in the CA narrative. Rich white liberals only talk about "people of color" to blur the distinctions, and keep people from wondering why CA is only 6% black if this is supposed to be the land of milk and honey for minorities. Rich white liberals are OK with these conditions because they live in those very expensive, 90% white communities that you are having trouble getting into.
