A Political Ideology (Tim Wise - White Privilege) [View all]
I figure I would post this for everyone. I think many posters seem to forget the magnitude of racial profiling and by it's very nature the racism based on discrimination and stereotypes are racist. And due to that, Zimmerman's actions, be him White or Hispanic or White Hispanic, what he did is racist---because racial profiling is a byproduct of racism.
I felt Tim Wise talks about this best and most eloquently.
