The reason white racism is on the rise is because this generation of young white men were raised to be the least racist generation of whites to have ever existed in the history of the planet. They grew up being taught that racism was bad, that we were ALL going to just move past it and work together towards a better future. Even here where I live, which is traditionally the most racist part of the country, nearly every young white boy grew up watching black athletes, actors, musicians etc. It was all normal. We were 95% post racial.
So, as they grew older they stuck out their hands in friendship to EVERYONE, like they had been taught to do. Then every non white group on the planet came up behind us and sucker punched us. Calling us evil white devils. Told us we all deserved to die. We were ready and willing to move on from the past. The rest of the world wasn't ready. Instead of shaking our hands and marching off together, they chose revenge against the only generation of white people to ever let their guard down.
So now we do not want peace anymore. We are reforging the white identity that we were taught to shed. You have no idea the monster you have awoken. When white people chimp out we decimate continents. We wipe out entire races. History will look on the non whites of today as the absolute stupidest group of people ever. Pray to your gods for mercy because you will not find any from us.

Back in the mid 1970’s, when I was about 20 years old, I visited my older brother who had taken a job out in a rural part of the state in a little dusty desert outpost where the population was only about 5,000 people. He had a degree that offered few jobs, so he took what he could find. He was miserable there. There was nothing to do except go to the Dairy Queen on the main drag or go shoot basketball at the nearby High School gymnasium or swim at the public pool.
The area was low income and there were a mix of ethnicities living there. The sleepy run-down place was not somewhere you’d want to stay if you had any other choice.
His letters home reeked of loneliness and regret at taking the job. He asked if his little sister would be willing to drive way out there for a short visit to cheer him up. I had a few days off so I went. On the first day while he was at work, I went to the local public pool and put my towel down to sunbathe.
While minding my own business, a little black girl about 9 years old saw me and grabbed the water hose that was against the building and turned it on full blast and sprayed me in the face with it. I jumped up and said, “Why did you do that? I didn’t do anything to you!” She looked stunned at my question and then just ran off. It was the strangest thing to be hated by a child because I was a different ethnicity than she was. I just didn't get it at all.

I still stand by the belief that racism like that is taught. Well, all racism, actually. That, I think, is even more concerning and depressing. It means that someone has so much hate and anger in their heart that they would teach an innocent child to hate specific people for no good reason.

It's not though, it's normal

Racism is and inherent primal instinct. That natural order of things is to want to be with your own kind. It's not Healthy to deviate from.
Regardless of whether you're white or black, You want your children to look like you, not some half-colored nappy headed mulato.
-Muhammad Ali (paraphrased)

I think those of you that are replying here are confusing racism and racial preference. A desire to want to associate with others like you, based on whatever defining characteristic that you choose...that seems fairly natural - I'll agree with that.
Racism, however, is not simply wanting to identify or associate with your ethnicity, but a belief that some natural trait of a given ethnicity makes anyone born of that ethnicity good or bad, better or worse, specifically in relation to another ethnicity. This, I do not believe, is natural or good. That is my personal opinion and belief, feel free to agree or disagree with me.
You can prefer to associate primarily with one group over another, or one ethnicity over another, without believing something inherently negative about any others. I simply do not see how holding this perspective in life will contribute to a more free, safe, and happy society. Hate is a dangerous thing.
