Since I accidentally deleted this from before, I'm reposting the answers to who-said-which racist remark. Sorry I can't recover any comments!
Which of the following statements is racially offensive and who said them?
a. Referring to Supreme Court judge Clarence Thomas: "A handkerchief-head, chicken-and-biscuit-eating Uncle Tom." (Spike Lee)
b. “The white man is our mortal enemy, and we cannot accept him. I will fight to see that vicious beast go down into the lake of fire prepared for him from the beginning, that he never rise again to give any innocent black man, woman or child the hell that he has delighted in pouring on us for 400 years." (Louis Farrakhan)
c. “I say to Jewish America: Get ready...knuckle up, put your boots on, because we're ready and the war is going down... The real deal is this: Black youth do not want a relationship with the Jewish community or the mainstream white community or the foot shuffling, head-bowing, knee bobbing black community... All you Jews can go straight to hell.” (Quannell X, National Youth minister for the Nation Of Islam, New York Daily News, October 17, 1995)
d. “White folks was in caves while we was building empires... We taught philosophy and astrology and mathematics before Socrates and them Greek homos ever got around to it.” (Rev. Al Sharpton)
e. “The Zionist regime is a rotten, dried tree that will be eliminated by one storm.” (Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad)
f. "Chicano and Chicana students of Aztlan must take upon themselves the responsibilities to promote Chicanismo within the community, politicizing our Raza (i.e. “race”) with an emphasis on indigenous consciousness to continue the struggle for the self-determination of the Chicano people for the purpose of liberating Aztlan (i.e. all non-Hispanics OUT).” (MeChas constitution)
g. "We have an aging white America. They are not making babies. They are dying. The explosion is in our population... I love it. They are sh-tting in their pants with fear. I love it.... We have got to eliminate the gringo, and what I mean by that is if the worst comes to the worst, we have got to kill him." (Jose Angel Gutierrez, professor, University of Texas)
