What is 'reverse racism'? I've heard this term everywhere yet I do not know what it means. Could someone please explain it to me?

I suppose it's typically when minority groups are racist against white people.

But what if whites are the minority?

Technically, whites ARE the minority now. But I guess they just continue to use the term.

Technically, whites ARE the minority now. But I guess they just continue to use the term. They are already? Anyhow, I am sure Wiki has a nice definition, but for starters, reverse racism is when the former objects of racism are doing the same thing, and boy is it ever alive. (not to mention that many people think because their skin color is not white they can't possibly be racist)

I think so. I'll have to look it up to be sure, but I'm fairly sure whites are a minority in the U.S. now.

I suppose it also depends a little on the region you live in. Cities are more diverse than rural areas.
