Reverse racism and why I think black history month is racist

I agree, reverse racism IS racism. But how to get out of that rut? I am not sure there is much solution anymore. And, other special interest groups have minority/race benefits - while they are not a race at all! one of the special groups functions that I believe to be racist is the particular race "miss america pageant" if we want to all be recognized as americans, then let us compete together as americans, not just as a special ethnicity. our race is now american regardless of our heritage and ethnicity!
This was a gutsy discussion you started here!

You're right. You cannot give privileges to one ethnic group and say that it is their right, and yet if you do to another, say it is racist. Have all the Black people in the States become moral and righteous? No, for when I watch the Judge shows on Tv, I see black boys (you can't call them men) living off the avails of their women, white or black. And this is why Lincoln freed the slaves!!!! Yet when I read history and learn about the Roman slaves that were manumitted by their owners and how they started their own businesses, and tried to get ahead. And you must not give money to the descendants of Black slaves. There is a rule in the bible saying that children should not be punished for their parents sins and I presume it meant that the descendants of the slave owners and plantation owners should not be made to pay for what their ancestors did either.

I think that black history month is not racist and here's why. We spend lots of time learning about white people all year. I don't think an one month is too much to ask in pursuit of equality. However, I agree, it's better we should all be integrated so we learn about everyone at once together rather than having to have special categories. I hope we, as a society, evolve to the point we don't need Black history month. However, I don't think we're anywhere near that point.

I am a racist and I'll be happy to admit it. I don't care. I get discriminated against every day because I'm white and a female, yet no one cares. I get shoved to the back of the line in front of a black family with their 30 kids so they can "get out quicker" and no one cares. Yet if I tried to cut into a line, I'd be shot.

In any event, you're right. We have Miss Black America. We have BET. We have Black History Month. We have a lot of other black holidays. Where is Miss White America? Where is White History Month? Where is WET (White Entertainment Television)? There can't be. Blacks have the NAACP. Where's the NAAWP? Where's the marches and movements for the white race?

There aren't any. that'd be racist. WTFE>
