Re: prejudice against white people
In the summer of 1966, there were race riots in Brooklyn. Most whites had already fled the area. My family was one of very few left in the neighborhood. My grandmother was mugged & had her purse stolen, my father was hit from behind, our cat was murdered, and there were rape/death threats against my mother & I. (My parents told me that part years later, as I was only 9 at the time.)
These things still happen today. I presently live in a 98% white area, and there is a lot of bigotry in the other direction. Sad to say, but it seems to be inherent in human behavior. The majority picks on the minority, based on demographics, not color.
