So you think that the NBPP guys who call for killing white babies aren't racist? Hostility to others because of their race is racist even if it doesn't involve an idealogy of racial superiority. However, there are blacks who preach an idealogy of racial superiority, namely the Black Muslim cult begun by Elijah Muhammed. Even some non-Muslims have such beliefs: “White folks was in caves while we was building empires… We taught philosophy and astrology and mathematics before Socrates and them Greek homos ever got around to it.” Rev. Al Sharpton

"You are shameless.....how can an oppressed people have feelings of superiority?" That is actually pretty easy. The best way is to pick some other group to feel superior over. A classical case is how the wealthy Southerners kept on top. The poor whites had the blacks to feel superior to. And that was encouraged. Because if the poor whites and the poor blacks were ever able to join up, actual changes might have happened long before they actually did. As it was, it was the flight of non-labor intensive businesses fleeing to the Sunbelt that triggered the changes.
