A white Christian radio host ranted that white Americans were long past racism. However, she said the recent rise in white hatred is due to “racist black people” who constantly bring up race.
Sandy Rios, a host of American Family Radio and a Fox News contributor (no surprise there), went on a delirious diatribe when a caller accused her of being a racist.
“I think the racist garbage coming from the—uh, a lot of blacks right now who are just filled with bitterness and rage is just amazing to me,” Rios said. “It is racism, I am seeing it constantly here in D.C., you know, I think—and it’s causing white citizens to become more racist than they ever were.”
“I think for the most part, the American Anglo-Saxon crew really has moved past racism, they did it quite a long time ago,” she said before expounding on precisely why white racism is no more, a mere unfortunate chapter in America’s otherwise glorious past. You see, white supremacy had demonstrably ended with the end of racial segregation. But, even more, white America had elected a black President.
“I mean, they did elect Barack Obama twice, so I think it’s not nearly the issue in the white community that it was in the ’50s, sure it isn’t, or the 60s—it just isn’t,” she said. “But it seems to be raging, racism seems to be absolutely raging in the black community.” And so, black racism accounts for the “recent” rise in racist feelings among whites. “I think what’s causing it is people like Barack Obama and Eric Holder, who can’t say enough and stir the pot enough to create anger and hatred and bitterness,” Rios said.
To add injury to insult, Rios compared the rise of black racism with white feminism:
“You know, they do the same thing with women, it’s the same thing in feminism, that’s why I’ve never been a feminist. I hate feminism.”
