White Minority Lyrics

We're gonna be a white minority
We won't listen to the majority
We're gonna feel inferiority
We're gonna be white minority

White Pride
You're an American
White Pride
I'm gonna hide anywhere I can

Gonna be a white minority
We don't believe there's a possibility
Well you just wait and see
We're gonna be white minority

White Pride
You're an American
White Pride
I'm gonna hide anywhere I can

We're gonna be a white minority
There's gonna be a large casualty
If we don't find a new territory
We're all gonna die

Cover art for White Minority lyrics by Black Flag

Im tired of seeing ppl who think this is a racist song. You people are fucking stupid. Without explaining lyrics, I will tell u while it cant be. The guy who sang it on the Jealous Again 7'' was Puerto Rican. Also, the drummer on the same 7'' was Columbian. Greg Ginn, the guitarist, idolized many black musicians. On top of that, their producer (in the early days at least) was Spot who is black. Also, I do remember reading an interview with Ginn where he explains that this song is a criticism of the violent white supremacists who attended punk concerts. So to all those who say this song/black flag is racist: do some fucking research, know the fucking band! Fuck!

I think it's more about how communities all over the US (i think this might even be specifically about LA) are no longer homogenously white, and that eventually, all the racism that the white majority has shown towards the minorities is gonna come back and haunt them when THEY'RE the minority. I don't think it's so much a "what if...." scenario as much as it is a prophetic warning about what's gonna happen because of racism. I mean, look at any country or community where one group initially mistreated other groups, but eventually lost their power. What happened to them? Most of the time, they got paid back for the shit they'd pulled earlier.

i know the comment im replying to is 3.5 years old, but let me say this to anyone who agrees: SO many white people now in the media and everywhere else bend over backwards not to offend minorities, nowadays, it's ridiculous. With little recognition. Then, if say, I go to a minority friend's house, I can expect to hear all sorts or racial comments by parents/family/etc. Racism against black people does exist, but to blame "white people" as a whole is ignorant as FUCK.

I can only wonder how many will bend over backwards for us, if we do become a minority. The only racism they care to attack now is against their own and the "black culture" and media doesn't even tell them hating white people is a bad thing. Hell, if anything, they encourage it, like it's their right to do so, because of the past that noone today has any control over. If a black guy challenges this, he's often called an Uncle Tom. A white guy tries to bring up anti-white racism, he's hounded by the "enlightened" PC police as a racist. You can have 80 underground rappers attacking racism from the minority standpoint, but if even one white guy has one out of a billion songs addressing the other end, he's "racist"(?). Granted most of the violence is black on black, now, but with black and white, guess which side has a greater percentage of victims? Oh, I can't say that. Shock!

If black progressives and white liberals would stop having such double standards, for bigotry, maybe....just maybe, they would win over more than very PC white guilt libtards.

Look, I hate the Nazis and genocidal racists as much as anyone, but I do agree with the meaning I'm taking from this song.

You are an idiot. if whites became a minority no one would have sympathy because the history white race is so dominating and manipulative. Most people groups on the planet have been taken advantage of by the white race. England controlled India and parts of the middle East. Whites are still the rich people in Africa. Europeans took over South america. and slavery took place in America. ITS SICKENING. of course there would be no sympathy.

YOU wont even have sympathy now for minorities. Since whites like you cant have sympathy for them, if your people became a minority do...

Not Valid

So we should just clump all whites together and join hands in a circle of self hatred?

Fuck you, liberal shithead. Stop drinking the fucking koolaid your sociology professor is giving you.

Do you really think racism is going to end by dwelling on the past? Do you think we are going to end racism with things like affirmative action, and black history month?

Fuck no. It's just putting more of an emphasis on race which is divisive.

We should live in true equality, and stop the self-flagellation. If all races are truly equal than why would this be a...

Not Valid

@binormal Nobody is gonna feel sorry for you dude... all the fucking genocides you've created and all the fucking gall you have and greed. Nobody is going to love you when people realize the truth about you.

i don't think anyone is claiming that it's racist...

No, this isn’t a racist anthem. It’s satire and used to mock white nationalists, the lead singer, at the time, is Puerto Rican. They’re basically giving a big ol “fuck you” (or criticizing if you must) to white power.
