African-Americans are typically mixed race individuals because of, ya know. Slavery.

Or it could be a case of ingrained racism. A Black friend of mine told me I didn't act Black because all Blacks were ratchet. That's racist, and it comes from an unspoken belief that whites are not ratchet, or whatever. Kinda ridiculous, but still racist.

There is the argument that a certain race is allowed to make fun of themselves but no on else can.

For example: I'm Hispanic so I can make stereotypical jokes about what it is to be Hispanic, but Karen from Malibu most certainly cannot.

Same. I'm told the exact same thing.

I guess it's about intent. Me and my friend joking about loving kool aid hits differently than some random white person laughing at me because I like kool aid.

Yeah, because I definitely do this with my friends, too.

If we go by this definition I can throw a party with a sign on the door saying “no blacks allowed” and as long as I didn’t hold an ideology that proclaimed my race superior, that would not actually be racist. I disagree.

Mine's a bit more extreme..

same lmao we funny

I fail to see how being called a terrorist is less than being made fun of for liking kool aid.

Why else would…why else would someone not allow blacks somewhere…

@WriteOutofTime

This hypothetical scenario is so unlikely it makes my head spin. I'm more focused on current events and context, not off the wall scenarios.

Idk, um… wanting to recognize only European culture at this party?

@WriteOutofTime

So the question is: if there's a party soley for celebrating celtic origin, can there be a sign that says no Blacks allowed without it being racist?

Well,,, no,,, because there are other non-celtics,,,
