Why do people hate Black People?

Anonymous

Hello, I am a young African American teenager. So far recently I’ve been seeing a lot of negative comments on Twitter towards the black community. I understand most are trolls but others are just downright old white conservatives talking about “black people are playing victims” how “black people are not oppressed” and how “the N-word is just a word.” Of course, I wouldn’t expect them to understand, just as I don’t understand redneck culture lol. But, I don’t understand why they just won’t listen. They have it in their mind that some black people choose to be ignorant, they think that black-on-black crime is something that came from our culture. When it’s caused by the outcome of their ancestors. Black schools and neighborhoods are heavily underfunded, and kids know nothing but gangs, stealing, killing, etc. It's like they complain about these things, but when we tell them the reasons they want to brush us off. Another thing is they seem to have a problem with black people wanting their own space. Let’s be clear ever since Elon musk took over Twitter we’ve seen the use of the N-word hard er. Now, it’s a problem for us to get away from that. Why should we want to stay on social media with people not wanting to listen to us, and call us names, meanwhile using our culture? It’s disrespectful and cruel. What have we done to deserve these things?
