Think about all the sh1t us minority races have been through....Slavery for the Blacks,resedential schools for the Natives,child labour for Asians.Accusations of illegal immigrints for Latinos....the list goes on and on. I found this group on facebook called "Why is there no White heritage month?" WTF, White ppl get all year and when someone else gets a measley month, hell breaks loose. White ppl have always been at an advantage....I mean, have they ever been denied a job because they are White, have they ever had to sit at the back of the bus because they are White?It just bugs me, what do ya;ll think?

No one alive now has been in slavery, meaning no white person alive now has owned a slave, Asian child labor is in Asia, so it's done by their own people, "accusations" for Illegal immigrants??? They ARE illegal, they need to follow OUR laws. Are you a woman? Yes, I have been denied a job and a promotion because I am a white woman. But I went somewhere else. So grow up and shut up.

You ain't been through nothing. Your ancestors may have but, You wish to use them as a crutch so, You don't have to work too hard to make it on Your own. when was the last time someone owned You or, You had to pick cotton? I have picked cotton and, primed tobacco to get to the next job. if the only white people You know are rich or, have it made, You already live in a high class neighborhood or, have never left Your own neighborhood and, are basing Your findings on what You watch on t.v. get a job, get a life and, start taking responsibility for Your own decisions and, mistakes. You didn't get where You are today because, I'm white.

Well yes, they have troubles too. Its called affirmative action. Of course they all have other troubles too. It's just the rich white people that have it all. They all went through the depression didn't they? I believe we should have a merit based society and remove affirmative action.

I'm a white woman, I'll gladly change places with you for a week - you'll probably be wanting to jump off a bridge when you're done. We all have our struggles, regardless of race.
