Do you think most minorities have a positive or negative image of whites?

Depends on the person and their life experience. A black man living in the south about fifty years ago probably wouldn't have many positive feelings about whites. A black man today might not really care one way or another.

The barriers between black and white have blurred and many people understand that the content of a persons heart is more important than the color of their skin. Our reactions to other groups of people are based on tribalism and group bias. Biologically speaking, we are almost identical, we each share 99.9 percent of the same DNA. Check for yourself if you don't believe me.

The problem that minorities still face is the delibrate fear mongering by politicians to frighten white voters. I can't speak for all minorities, but most of my black and hispanic friends are really offended by guys like Donald Trump who claim they will "make America great again" by building walls and deporting people.

The greatness of America is based on its diversity.

Good luck with your project.

There really isn't any sort of blanket answer that can be applied to this question. Minorities aren't a monolithic entity - they're individuals, all of whom will, as Louis said, have had different experiences with white people that will affect their outlook.

Speaking in very broad terms, however, I think it's relatively safe to say that many (but by no means all) minority people will harbor a certain resentment towards specific kinds of white people. Bigots are the most obvious target here - you'd be hard pressed to find a person of color who had any positive feelings towards racists. There's also white people who, while they may not be openly prejudiced themselves, act extremely dismissive of any and all struggles faced by minorities. Minorities aren't likely to feel positively about them either.

But really, the only answer I can give to this is that it will depend on the people involved. The resentment some minority people harbor towards white people is born of societal influences, not genetics. To expand on Louis's example, a black man living today would be likely to feel very differently about Trump than he would about, say, Bernie Sanders.

Hope that's helpful, and good luck with your project.

As the great late George Carlin said, that is the way the ruling class works in any society. They will pick on any difference that will enable them to separate people and pit them against each other, because that is the easiest way to control them and keep the status quo. It is true on every level of power starting from parents, peer groups, work environment and ending with corrupt politicians and ISIS psychopaths. All work on the same principle. That is why racial, religious or sexual prejudice is not going away any time soon.
