Why is it socially acceptable for non-whites to form exclusive groups, but not whites?

Question

There are lots of people who are black and proud, asian and proud, etc. These groups are able to form exclusive fraternities, sororities, clubs, you name it, and it is not frowned upon. However, if white people were to form such exclusive communities, then it would certainly cause some contraversy and be pegged as being racist. Why do you think there is this double standard?

Answer 1

Hypocrisy, plain and simple. Some minority groups may feel that whites have no reason to form (race) exclusive groups.

Answer 2

White people form exclusive groups all the time. They are called cliques. This is a high schoolish behavior trait that continues to exist with some people all their lives. Basically they are insecure people who are stuck in their development at the adolescent stage. They usually don't say anything about rejecting non white people but they often do. Or some of them will have a token non white person who is very conservative with them..like George W does. But they also reject more creative and free spirited white people as well. Too scary for them! Free spirits tend to be more honest and all that honesty may expose them for whoever they are afraid that they are. Actually we are all unique and wonderful but these people don't know that.
Grow up! Loosen up! Accept yourselves and others and you may too learn how to happy...being In a closed group like that only makes you sad, even though may g o around with a smile and pretend otherwise. I see through it! The very sad truth is you will never know who you really are if you cling to cliques and closed groups.

Answer 3

Becouse these groups have been biased for so long against the whites and the whites are not bawl babies so they do the right thing and blow them off. Now tho they are really aggressive and have become what they hated about us and now are no better and we still are being the better people about it. Maybe we should stop!

Answer 4

Its because our mainstream media promotes an agenda, and that agenda is the end of the white race.

Remember it is controlled by a few middle aged Jewish men, who do not have white interests at heart. Most whites are sheep and too afraid to be called racist to stick up for themselves, as the media has brainwashed them into dissassociating with their racial identity in a step to weaken white resolve.

I get called racist all the time and to me that means I have won the debate: when the opposition resorts to petty name calling, I know they have no valid points with which to debate.

Answer 5

The whites stopped going forward about 20 years ago to wait on everyone else to catch up and they can't seem to do it. I think we are about to take off again and leave them in the dust once more, it's not our place to hold their hand to make sure they do ok.

We need to start going forward again and worrying about ourselves before our country completely goes to crap.
I believe anyone with any sense sees our country dieing and we need to get moving again no matter who is hollering what about me.
We tried and it didn't work, so be it we learned the hard way and hopefully won't make the same mistake ever again.

Answer 6

But we do still. I belong to an Irish group (which,admittedly, still accepts people from other heritages because being Irish is just so darned fun...). We whites just tend to make them more specific to a national heritage than a general color-scheme.

Answer 7

Reverse-discrimination.

Answer 8

I don't think it is a problem that white people to form a group. Hell, they have been forming them for years.

Answer 9

the reason for this stigma is because the gov. is worried about controversy why don't we have a Cajun history month?????
