# No it doesn't.
Do you hate black people?

Exactly.

I make those kinds of jokes, if only to draw attention to the fact that racism is funny as it's so shit.

# I still get righteously angry
when I hear about "Black swimming groups" and the like.

If I set up a "White swimming group" I'd be fucking sentenced to prison I expect.

# I have problems with all exclusionary groups.
I refused to work on the race for life campaign because of that.

# Where do they have black swimming groups?

# London apparently.
There are swimming groups which have been set up exclusively for underpriveleged black families.

Try setting one up for underpriveleged white families only and see what happens. Not that I advocate either stance, I should confirm.

# Don't you appreciate that black people still don't have the same opportunities as white people
in this country?

They still face discrimination.

# I totally appreciate that fact.
But I think that setting up groups which exclude white people makes things even worse, because it antagonises whites and also segregates them even further than they already are.
If you want to make whites and blacks live together, in peace, then let them carry out activities together. Fuck all point in separating them and making the whole situation two-sided again.

# I was told I couldn't join a gospel choir because I'm white.
I call that discrimination too.

Sorry, but I've been discriminated against for other reasons, but I would never dream of doing it myself because I know what it feels like-.

# I should think that is illegal
Under the Race Relations Act.

# I should think so too.
Doesn't stop it happening.

And if that's illegal, why aren't all the other colour specific clubs illegal?

# Just because they are 'for' a specific group doesn't mean entrance is banned to those of other colours/genders/cultures
It's just that they don't tend to join as they don't have first hand experience of similar issues.
