| Racism against White Americans In the United States, there have been some crimes committed against whites on the basis of their ethnicity. According to columnist Earl Ofari Hutchinson, FBI statistics indicate that more than 20% of hate crimes are committed by Blacks, and most of the victims of those crimes are white. The Nation of Islam, a religious and social/political organization with the self-proclaimed goal of improving the condition of the Black people in America, is regarded as racist, antisemitic and anti-white. Some Black nationalists propagate pseudo history to emphasize alleged Black superiority over whites. There are more hate crimes against whites than against Hispanics, Asians, American-Indians and multiple-race groups. By contrast, the National Criminal Victimization Survey, finds that per capita rates of hate crime victimization varied little by race or ethnicity, and the differences are not statistically significant. The United States Department of Justice compiles statistics on crime by race, but only between and among people categorized as black or white. These statistics state that of more than 6.6 million violent crimes (murder, rape, assault and robbery) are committed in the United States each year, about 20% occur between white offenders and black victims or black offenders and white victims. In 2005, there were more than 645,000 victims of cross-racial violent crimes between blacks and whites in the U.S. In 90 percent of those crimes, black offenders attacked white victims. |
