Now before you all go off on me, I am 1/4 black.
But to me, It seems that racism is perpetuated by the african american community. Everytime my boyfriend does something REMOTELY wrong at work to someone african american, they pull the "racism" card on him and file a complaint that he treated them differently because he was white and they are black. He did not do ANYTHING wrong to deserve this.
Also, at my college, there's a huge scholarship that I qualify for... the only reason I cannot receive it, is because i'm not 100% black. I'm sorry, but you KNOW if there was an all white scholarship, there would be INTENSE racism, and my college would probably get sued. So why is it okay this way around?
Furthermore, don't pull the slave card. Sure, my ancestors were probably slaves. But you know what? They're not alive and neither are the white slaveowners. Why are we holding grudges when NONE of us were there?
Love yourself, black or white. What do you thiink?
