Racism is just racism. Those that believe in reverse racism are racists.
There is no difference if the person is white they can be discriminated against, and it's not reverse.
My wife is American White, i've seen it happen.

The term "reverse racism" was coined because for some reason, it got to the point in society where when one said "racism" is was assumed you meant white against another. Reverse racism was supposed to indicate a racism of other against white.

Racism is not against only one group or race of people. Any time that a person hates/uses slurs/epithets/threats towards someone of a race different from their own, it is RACISM. So no, the only way there could be a "reverse" or opposite to racism is if you loved/honored/respected races different from your own.

In physics there is a Law that states; 'For every action there is a reaction'. When society passes laws requiring admission and employment quotas for select racial groups reverse discrimination will naturally occur.

Racism is a term used to describe the hatred someone has towards someone of an opposite race. So if a white person says "Black people are useless" then that is racist. If a black person says "White people are fat" then that is racist.
Racism is not just used to describe white people and there hate towards other races. It is used to describe any person who hates another race then themselves.

I think racism is racism. Doesn't matter what race you are, if there is a group of people (ir even just one) who dispises you because of your race, it's racism.

Young White Males are now some of the most discrimated against people in the country. Although I am still glad to be young and white becasuse we still have an easy life compared to most other groups.

Heck yeah...as a young (2nd generation), professional (lawyer)jamaican american who grew up in small town Wisconsin...I experience it every single day of my life. And you know who my worst crictics are black woman, then black man who just assume I will date them b/c I have tan skin. For some reason this country has attributed "acting white" to proper etiquette and professionalism which is complete and utter BS. As soon as proper/professioanl minorities are considered the norm instead of a special "over-come-the-odds" after-school special, our society has a big, BIG problem. And also, if you don't want to be stereo-typed STOP DOING IT!
