Surely it could also be argued that those white housemates that have been evicted could have been voted out by black people??

I suppose the fact that there are only 2 women left in the house surely shows that the British public are also sexist, as well as racist etc...

I also find the comments about the UK being more racist than the US totally ridiculous... The UK has to have one of the most diverse multi-cultural mix of people living in any country... Even in parts of the US where there are large black communities there is an abundance of racism & great cultural divides between the black & white communites... Hurricane Katrina anyone...

YOu know why you think that? Exactly because of my point. They are actually able to talk and acknowledge racism, in most places. Of course it exist, the difference is, people arent shy about talking and having discussions. Which is exactly whats lacking in this situation, and thats why you think its not a problem. Because its diverse, you think its not racist? LOL!
Have you seen how those so called multi communities are segragated around here? Everyone stays in their area. I know for a fact its not like that in most of the US. They encourage integration a lot more. There are of course cases where its not, but whats more important, is people take an active role in trying to remedy that! They have made more progress when it comes to race, than any modern country in the past 10 20 years. ITs not happenning here from my observations. And Ive seen both sides. Ive lived both sides, and I dont go with one element in the press like Hurricane Katrina. I go with what Ive seen!

Anyways, this debate is never ending, because people dont want to hear it, so I will just leave it at that, and hope some actually learn something from it.
