To return to my main point; the issue with the White House in particular is that it can never be dissociated with racism. Even ignoring the fact its called the White House because frankly suggesting that's the main or even a somewhat significant reason for it being associated with racism is ludicrous, if anything its a coincidental colour with the history of the White House but I shall go into this later.
Today and in history white houses in America are found mainly on plantations or ex-plantations where slavery was at its worst; A simple Google search confirms this fact with multiple sources. The reason is most likely the fact that in the south, where most plantations were, is a very warm place, especially in the summer; white is undeniably the best colour for keeping the house cool and so like I said, the fact the White House is white is not an intentionally racist feature. I am choosing here to focus on the fact that the American people at the point of building the White House decided to model it on the centre of plantations that oppressed and tortures thousands of lives for over 200 years. This they felt was appropriate I must assume because slave owners were considered among the highest standing within their own communities so the however the connotations of slavery and racism still carry on to today. Undoubtedly there are a few people of all races in America that believe this similarity is an indication of the government treating its people as slaves however looking at the constitution and studying the founding fathers intentions shows this couldn't be further from the truth.
It can also be almost taken for granted that slaves did also build the White House, again this is not unfounded in terms of evidence.

For me it's hard to imagine slaves building a house that was to belong to the head of state who would rule over their masters who oppressed them in such a way that slavery does and not only this but for it to echo the appearance of their masters house.
