i dont think i should get blamed the second im born with white skin, for something people did out of hate a long time ago.
how could any one know what i would do in any of those situations? u cant unless u get to know me, ur just asuming becuase im white i would enslave people, instead of judging my character.

Unfortunately, bias or prejudice has many "faces". It really does not matter what race, ethicity, religion, culture, etc., you are, to possess that "demon" called prejudice. There are people who have problems with weight, height,economic status, education level....you name it. These people who possess this "hatred" for others are shallow, inhumane and often...very insecure. You should be proud of yourself, no matter what race you are or at what financial "rung" you are in.....You need to ignore these people and remember that you are a special person to your family and friends. There is no other like you. . Do not turn your "anger and frustration" into your own kind of prejudice. Rise above it and you will be a much better person for it, believe me.

There is more a distrust of white people. You personally do not run the world but white people as a group do. Just take a look at the Government, Police Force and anyone in authority. You can count the people of color. You are right to be offended but at the same time you have to look at the current and past American Culture. White people have a culture of entitlement-take a good look at the policies in this country and around the world. It takes people like yourself to change this mindset. As far as the NAACP and other minority organizations go, they are born out of exclusion. If it were true that people believed all were created equal such organizations would be unnecessary and a discussion such as this would not happen.

When you think of world history, white men have colonized,invadedand enslaved people all over the world, with varying degree of catastrophic results for them. Do you wonder why there is some antiwhite feelings.
However racism doesn't know any boundaries.

Just try to start a "White's Only" club or corporation and watch what happens. It's perfectly fine to be a member of the Black Panthers or NAACP.

as a white person you dont need to complain about such matters, as a matter of fact we all know that all you whites get first treatment, nice jobs,.....etc.., we of other races have to fight for that.
