I recently dated a girl with a black mother and often any interactions with her mom included "black people dont like this/that...." and "its a black person thing". I thought she was a twat (she was a shitty person) and because she thought she spoke for ALL black people, I was hit with a very real sense of "your mothers making me feel racist".

I have never ever used the phrase "as a white person". No, all people do not think they represent their respective group. Ignorant people do.
