Why is it we have a nigro college fund? but no white college fund. Why a black history month, but no white one? If we posted proud to be white, would we be called racist? why is it blacks seem to have the rights? Why is it that if we are proud of who we are, white, then we are racist? I didnt enslave anyone, why are we still listening to this sob storey? Why do bilinguals get paid more but work less because they are limited to what they can do on the job? Is that fair?

YES whites have less rights we are now the minority population in the us. the "minority population" which is still considered today as blacks and hispanics can get all medical benifits, rent payment help, food cost help, and what makes me mad the most the can claim disability work at the same time for one year, they can get all of the help at the drop of a hat. But whites have to fight in this world every day njust to survive.

haha i must laugh at the sillinest of this question. take a hard look at what america is. Being a black women in a America I can tell you that it is not the whites that lack the rights. Ok 1. Whites make up 75% of the population and since that is more that 50% you cannot be considered a minority sorry. 2. Black history month is stupid yes, it is not fair that we study how whites were making the world over for every month is the year but feburary. we are americans also so our history should be intertwined in with the rest. You will hear about malcolm X and martin luther king jr only in feburary, yet we hear about all the great white leaders all year round. You have 11 months not just one smile for you have been favored. We have rights because people are still to this day very ignorant and racist to people of another color. If you and me were to apply to college and put our races down you have better believe you would get in without and doubt but me I will have to prove that I did all my extracurriclars and didn't just put them down. I can't have less than a 3.5 but a white person with a 2.0 will get it above me and you are telling me you don't get favored and have better rights. Tell that to someone who hasn't live through it. I do not care about the slavery since I was never a slave but I do know that without those horrible so called rights you speak of, there would be no hope for someone like me to move up in the world and study where and what I want to.

I've always asked this question...To my parents and everyone...Like people consider white people the minorities..Just because african americans used to be tortured does not give them the right to put us down..It is not us.Most of us weren't even born (I am 19).I have many friends that are of different color...Blacks have a day that is named after them, but we do not..It is not fair, but that is how it will be forever.. I believe black people are more racist then we are NOW but no one judges them because of it..and this is no offence to anyone who is black but it is the truth...Or the truth I've realized growing up...
