The idea that Black people cannot be racist is preposterous

To the editor: After reading Clyde W. Ford’s piece defending former WNBA star Sheryl Swoopes for saying that Black people cannot be racist, I feel that such baloney should not go unchallenged.

I don’t care what the Kerner Commission is or how it defined racism in the 1960s. To say that people of any particular American racial or ethnic minority can’t be racist is absurd.

Racism does not require the superiority in power or numbers on par with white people in America. It can and has infected individuals and small groups of people who have little or no power. It is merely an attitude or belief, usually derogatory, about a race or ethnicity that is not true.
