Cover art for Guilty of Being White (Minor Threat cover) lyrics by Slayer

Ian MacKaye of Minor Threat wrote this song after being beaten up for discussing slavery in his history class.

Slayer aren't racists, just cuz Kerry King is bald (as is Ian MacKaye) doesn't make him a white surpremacist. One of the dudes in the badn isn't even white.

They changed it to "guilty of being right" as a way to piss people off and be controversial, not to show their racist attitudes. however, that is still inexcusable even if they aren't really racists.

There are a lot more racist songs out there than this one. Many rap songs are racist because the rappers see blacks and whites as different people who are living in different worlds as opposed to the two races living as the common man where race is irrelevant.
