      <![CDATA[well, simply noticing that portland is predominantly white doesn't make portland racist. it just means a lot of white people live here. i guess we could import more blacks, but i think we did that once, hundreds of years ago... didn't turn out so well.

      <![CDATA[This is pretty much always how the discussion goes regarding race in Portland, too.  <br>
"It's so white!"<br>
"Yeah...Except in the parts of town where that's not true..."<br>
"You're a racist because you deny how white it is!"<br>
"I'm not saying it isn't. The whole state has been, for a long time, but that's changing."<br>
"You don't even want to talk about it!"<br>
"I don't want to talk about it if all you're going to do is somehow make it seem like any of this was my doing."<br>
 <br>
It's always gonna be a stupid discussion, and it will always somehow act like the many "non-white" people here who don't happen to be  "african american" don't somehow represent a "diverse" population, and there will be an ugly underlying  (even racist) assumption that  More Of A Certain Race always = Good.

      <![CDATA[@31: Who called who a racist? The OP didn't. I didn't. In fact, the only people on this comment board calling others racist are the presumed white commentors. I think most people are offended when they are called a racist simply by bringing up the issue of race. It really makes you wonder why some white folk get so easily defensive when the SUBJECT of race is brought up...and when they get defensive, they immediately turn to the ol' standby: calling the other person a racist.

      <![CDATA[Huh. I grew up in Beaverton, a good number of my friends were Black, Asian, and Latino. I'm not denying this is very white city, but at the same time, most (white) people actively support multiculturalism. I think a good number of folks in this city are deeply offended when they’re called a racist.

      <![CDATA[Portland is a lot more diverse than people like the OP give it credit for. Spend some time in the huge area east of, say, 60th, or in the schools or parks & playgrounds in that area, or in Beaverton or Gresham & you'd see that. Probably better just to stay in the trendy inner areas though and continue to whine about the terrible white scourge of the city with fellow transplants.

      <![CDATA[@21: I wish these commentors (you included?) would quit throwing out the racist card every chance you get. "Hey, it appears that Zimmerman might have targeted this 17 year old and killed him. Looking at Zimmerman's 911 call history, race might have played a part in it." "You're a racist" - "Wow, another black person gets shot and killed in Portland, and in the back even. Sounds unfair and maybe racist?" "You racist" - "I think all these people should really be mad at the COMPANIES that hire illegals, not the illegals themselves. I mean, no jobs means no illegals, right?" "You racist bastard" - This is the new go-to defense when some white guy gets confronted with the hard truth that racism still exists in this country. And your whole thing about "what do you want me to do, change the color of my skin?" is just stupid, man. Hate to say it, but it is. If you're white, you've enjoyed white privilege...on any number of levels. From even just walking into a building and not having EVERYONE look at you. Have you ever had that happen? I have...and yeah, I'm not white. Something as small as people looking at you all the time... everywhere you go...over a lifetime, kinda grates on you. And this is something on a very small scale, of course there are more extreme examples. Whether you like it or not, whether you accept it or not, racism is alive and well. If you're white, you likely don't have to experience it, so it's not really up to you to declare that's it's over. Real sorry about that.

      <![CDATA[It's funny how NOT ONE commenter here address any of the points the OP made. I can drive around town and see with my own eyes EXACTLY what he's talking about. There's a lot of white people here...and most Mexicans are poor and have to work in the fields or stand near Burnside...and blacks get shot here. FACTS! You can prove them with your own two eyes, you idiots. It is, indeed, a fucking sea of white here. I have to wonder why you people are so easily offended by this FACT. Idiots.
