Reverse Discrimination Is Bad
Black History Month. Miss Black America. Predominately Black College. Honkey. Cracker. White jokes. How come all of this is acceptable in today's society and the minute one white person makes an "off colored" joke, they are considered a racist. I would venture to say that there are more racist black people today than white or any other race. I'm not white by the way. I'll have more on this debate later. I just want to see what others say.

I had written a long explanation in regards to this post; however, I lost it. Therefore I will only summarize my last reply.

Unrighteous judgment and discrimination should never be accepted regardless of how one may attempt to justify it.

In order to really understand the reasons behind something one must dig down to the root cause. Sometimes we have to dig really deep; other times not so deep. In this case, one need not dig too deep to understand the reasons for so-called Reverse discrimination, because it finds its fuel within two major movements in America. These movements are known as Afrocentricity and Pan-Africanism.

In a nutshell, these two movements seek to eradicate the Eurocentric (European) ideals and replace them with an Afrocentric (African) one. They support the psychology of the "white-guilt syndrome" and that of "black supremacy". One can argue that they are not large enough to have an influence; however, I would strongly disagree. They exist in our colleges, universities, work places, positions of leadership, media, entertainment industry, and in our governments. They do have an influence.

Education is the key to unlocking understanding. I would suggest seeking that key and getting understanding.

By the way, many followers and leaders of these ideologies refer to America as Amerikkka. How many of you accept that? I do not and will not.

I can't disagree with anything you said and add my vote not just from thought but experience.
The moment you take EITHER side, you become PART of the problem.
Just walk away, ignore the creeps and remember......Success is the best form of revenge.

Blah Blah Blah poor little white boy Yahda Yahda Yahda Black power, ummm If you don't want some one to call you a N***a Don't call your self and friends one , If you don't want to be judged by the colour of your skin don't draw attention to it. Its time for every one to get over it. Black white brown red yellow, we're all red underneath. Discrimination of any kind is bad. Its time to really change and stop segregating ourselves.

I must agree. Does it make sense to give these people who just want to be normal people holidays celebrating them? As for the jokes their usually stupid and racist as you said: Cracker anyone?

I as the whitest of all whites, can honestly say I have received reverse discrimination my entire life:

"hey Blondie!"
"hey Swedish!"

blah blah blah.

The dumb blonde "jokes'........heard them all.
It is just prejudice.
And remarks to get a tan are racist: What makes anyone think that it is bad to have white skin?
No one would dare say such things to blacks for fear of lawsuits!

Enough with the reverse discrimination already.

It is all bad; treating anyone poorly based soley on their looks or their personal pigmentation/colouring........

 AMEN. A person has to prove themselves ignorant before I make that assesment. I just hate seeing all of it. I watched "Kings of Comedy" the other night, and I couldn't enjoy it because I just sat there the whole night thinking what it would be like if a white person was making those same remarks. That's what got this thread started and I hope to really hear some educated remarks about it. Thanks Scorpion.

Listen kid, the reason you white people are getting so much hate is because of what you did. You've done SO MUCH in the past, SO MUCH, its not even funny. What your seeing today is probably, say, not even a 5th of what you guys have done. Its called revenge, humans tend to do that, live with it, its your turn to suffer even though its not NEAR as much suffering as you people threw onto other races way back when.

If we wanted to be treated equally, then shouldn't we treat other people equally?
