I just want to clarify the person;s original statement that he would never marry a balck person:

1. He would never do it under any circtumstance.
2. Its not a matter of physical attraction, becuase there are blakc girls he finds attractive. He would even date them, but never marry.
3. He would emphatically rule out marriage to any black woman BEFORE meeting, speaking, dating, or spending time with them.
4. This is not based on religious or socioeconomic factors, as he was just as certain he would never marry a person who mtached him perfectly.
5. He does have MANY non-white friends who he treats equally to his whit eones., He is clearly not prejudiced, but fails to understand the difference between racism and prejudice.

Let's say I know an old time white dude from the burbs who owns a large apartment complex and is renting it out. He has decided he would never rent an apartment to a black person:

1. He would never do it under any circtumstance.
2. Its not a matter of quality of person, becuase there are blakc people with good personalities. He would even hang out with them, but never rent.
3. He would emphatically rule out renting to any black person BEFORE meeting, speaking, interviewing, or spending time with them.
4. This is not based on religious or socioeconomic factors, as he was just as certain he would never rent to a person who mtached him perfectly.
5. He does have MANY non-white friends who he treats equally to his whit eones., He is clearly not prejudiced (??????), but fails to understand the difference between racism and prejudice.
