Hate crimes and racism aren't the same thing.

Racism in this country was created by whites, for whites and in behalf of whites and used against non-whites in order to maintain white supremacy. There is no corresponding incidence of black "superiority" over the white majority in this country. That's the history and current state of affairs in this country.

It's not like anyone can deny that.

Hate crime is a crime motivated by racial, sexual, or other prejudice, typically one involving violence. It doesn't matter the color the person committing the hate crime.

And simply because a black person targets a non-black person because of their race, it may be a bigoted attack, but it doesn't fit the definition of "racism." It's lacks the power of racial hierarchy supporting that attack.
