Okay, so I am not trying to be racist or anything, but who here agrees with me that the black people are getting way more recognition than the whites?
Now we have black history month, black activists month, and negro colleges/college funds? This is just not fair. Everyone believes that if we have a white history month then we will be racist? We aren't. Blacks are getting everything nowadays and if the white people try to put say into anything, it gets shoved back in our face as a racist comment. I love black history and everything, but I have pride in being white and we get no recognition whatsoever? Does anyone agree with me.. And please don't say I am being racist. I live in the South for God's sake. |

okay, take a gander in your hostory book. all it is is white people. the only thing you read about black people is slavery and thomas crowe laws. the only time you read about asia is when whitey bombed them in WWII and again in vietnam. every month is white history month.
eventually, though, cultural plauralism will probably work out, and their will be no need for any history month of any kind. |

Exactly what I was going to say. LMAO @ "white people get no recognition whatsoever". Are you serious? And the reason there are negro college funds is to help black people into college since the majority of people who live in poverty in this country are black folks and some do need the money. There is affirmative action because there is an underrepresentation of minorities including women in the workplace. |

I'm sorry that ya'll white people feel that there shouldnt be just a black history month but ALOT of black people do not get ANY recognization. And it's because whites RUN THIS COUNTRY. Being a minority I know that there is soooo much ish I'm going to work 5x harder than a white girl my age. We're not running anything, wo why do you feel so bad? So threatened? |
