Why is it that both parties have ads that specifically target hispanics, blacks, asians, but none that target whites? Why are there advocacy groups for all racial groups but whites, and how come Latino activist or black activist are invited on tv and respected, but a white activist is immediately denounced and called a racist? Just for fun I've been taking articles about non white groups in the paper and changed them to white, and it sounds really funny.
Considering that whites make up an extremely small % of the world's population, and that even in their own countries they are becoming smaller and smaller % of the country, shouldn't there be groups that stand up for them just as every other racial group has representation?

I guess what I'm asking is, why is it that anyone trying to promote white interests is automatically considered to be the same as the KKK? Someone promoting black interests is seen as a good person who is trying to help peopel, and his motives are never questioned.
If someone started an organization that promoted education, culture (ex have european cultural events similar to the ones other groups do), and just did the same things for whites that other groups do for their members woiuld it be accepted, or would the group have to constantly face charges of racism?
Politicans bend of backwards to go to black only churches to show how in touch they are wtih the black community, and they do the same with hispanic only events. I have never seen a politician go to an event that prided itself on being mainly white in order to prove they are in touch with white values and the white community.

Yes, you are making a great point.
Don't hear much of this, do we?:
"Tune in tonight at 8 pm on channel 2 for the Miss White America Pageant"
"Tune in tonight at 9 pm on channel 7 for the WET (White Entertainment Television) Awards"
"A mind is a terrible thing to waste...please donate to the United Whitey College Fund."
How about if I wear a T-shirt that says White is Wonderful or White Power - it would be racist, right? Even though others are okay wearing Brown Is Beautiful and Brown Power T-shirts.
I feel sorry for white MALES who have it worse of all, at least white women can join NOW (National Organization of Women) - not that I agree with their platform, but I could if I wanted to.
Down with Whitey!!! Especially the Men!!!!
I'm getting sick of the whole thing.
Sorry for the rant.
PS: Don't you just love people who call racism against whites "reverse racism?" As if "racism" is something perpetrated solely by whites against non-whites. FOOLS!

White people are no different than blacks or Hispanics or what ever the race we are poor to just like the others .. poor whites are the for gotten race and are dieing quickly, because of the way the general public perceives us... We are pigeon holed into being rich when in fact we are as poor as the other races.. People are quick to point fingers with out knowing what they are talking about blacks make up about 13% of the population of America.. the rest are whites Hispanics or other races that are not white but are considered white or look white .. why do you think no one would say a word if they seen a Hispanic man and a white women married but when you see a black man or woman married to a white everyone has a problem.... Its not because the person is a bigot or anything.. Its because its odd,Queer,different..with 87% of the population white or in that category why would you not wonder whats going on...there is still places in America that have never seen a black person so to them they are Allan's..
Yes, I think that if people would take 13% as a whole of blacks and 87% of whits + others as a whole and counted the wealthy each group would be about the same .. we continue to over look the obvious and as long as the powers to be wants us fight among our selves we are doomed to repeat problems.,..

We have them in the US, Aryan Nation, Sons of Odin and others, all considered to be white supremacists. Not a problem in another 100 years we will all be cafe au lait.

The answer is simple. People don't like us white people. Hell, we don't even like ourselves. If we liked being white, why do we spend so much money on tanning products. I know woment that spend hundreds of dollars each year to lay in a tanning bed and roast themselves to a dark tan. Proof that nobody likes white people.

there is a difference between standing up and hating... no one is upset if you stand up... but 99 percent of the time it goes into the other category...
why are some white people actually think that they have it bad?
