Next. Who ever said I hated white people? There may be a few INDIVIDUAL white people that I have a strong aversion to but who said I hated whites? Will you admit, like that little girl did, that you are LYING? Do you have the courage to do so? Feel free to point to any post I've written. Tell me where I said I hate white people. I'll wait. And if you can't do it then you are a hypocrite and a person wanting to be treated as a victim of some imaginary crime and yet you want people to take you seriously as if you have actual credibility.
Just for the record, at one point, I went to a white school and literally ALL my friends were white and I was the token black. When there was another black kid in our class I didn't like him because he was weird. I didn't ultimately enjoy the school, not because it was 98% white but because we had to sing extremely white folk songs like "Jimmy Crack Corn" and I didn't even know that particular song first became popular during the rise of blackface minstrelsy in the 1840s.
"Most versions include some idiomatic African English, although sanitized General American versions now predominate. The basic narrative remains intact. On the surface, the song is a black slave's lament over his white master's death in a horse riding accident. The song, however, can be—and is—interpreted as having a subtext of celebration about that death[3][4] and of the slave's having contributed to it through deliberate negligence[5][6] or even deniable action." - wikipedia
And you know what's so messed up about this, Mr. Racist?
I had NO IDEA I was singing a song that was making fun of my people. And I bet those other kids had no idea either. So why was a 99% white school singing this song in class?
And after this school, since I was used to have white friends and thought nothing of race at that age, when I went to a 99% black school the only reason I wasn't friends with most of the white kids was 1 was weird (the kind that ate glue) and the other was mean and a bit of a bully. I had one white friend who then went to the same middle school as me. When I went to high school the racial population was near 50% so I had about the same ratio of friends. But in your mind, because you are ignorant of my story, you assume I hate white people in order to fit your racist right wing conservative agenda. Nice!
The truth is that whites have been making fun of black people since forever; even without us or even themselves, realizing it. So while YOU, in your white privilege ignorance may never have noticed this, that doesn't mean your limited experience defines reality for everyone else. So if white adults were making fun of black people and wearing black face, why would their children not learn the same thing and repeat it? Kids are STILL wearing black face today! Even Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who probably wore black face innocently not knowing how bad it was (benefit of the doubt), still got the idea from somewhere and people around him allowed him to do it. More than once.
Then there's Megyn Kelly

Again... I'm not even saying she knew it was wrong. But she got the idea from somewhere and that's how a lot of this stuff gets recycled into future generations. And part of that recycling of racism is based on whites not knowing their own racial history or... in some cases, not seeing anything wrong with it. So just for the record, if it seems like I don't like you it has nothing to do with your race. I don't like racists and people consciously working for that agenda against black people.
