The reason why some black people think whites are trying to hold them down is because of what is going on in society. Its not just 'paranoia'. For instance black people only make up a small % of the uk population but more blacks are in DNA crime data base than whites. Whites have better health care and jobs. These things are important to anybody. If the world was halfway perfect the whites who colonialize Africa would've spread education instead of corruption. Ofcourse whites can't be blame for all the problems that goes on with blacks. When you start to treat people as equals then you'll have progress. And then fewer blacks will feel like whites are holding them down.
