And also creates resentment. Resentment from innocent ppl that are punished for something they had zero part of.
@mikeohandley1922 Says:
They are always carping about systemic racism and saying that whites have privilege. What about those of us whites who's parents weren't wealthy or even well-off, who had to scratch and scrape our entire lives just to stay ahead?
One of my best friends in high-school was black and repeatedly elected to President of the Class and then President of the Student Council. That was in a high school of about 600 students where only about a dozen were black. Where was the systemic racism and white privilege? If there is so much white privilege and racism, shouldn't I, as a white kid, have had a leg up over my hard-working and studious black friend who was a better student than I?

@ebriggs3498 Says:
Xavier is correct! I recently saw a poll on Twitter and they were asking women what college degree they were going to to graduate with. I would say almost 99% of the people who answered that question were black women! I saw more women graduating with degrees as psychologist, doctors, attorneys, etc. In fact, statistics now show that if black men and women stay in school and go on even to a community college that there are more black men and women with degrees than ever before in history. I get tired of people feeling sorry for themselves when statistics, prove that they don’t need to feel sorry for themselves!

Also look at other countries NOW, that are oppressive. The women in those countries wouldn't even be in this show let alone speaking.

I always think of that movie, hunger games.
They rebel and fight to end the cruelty and oppression against them.
And to end the evil hunger games.
They win.
And then they immediately start to reverse all the horrors they cried about, onto the other side, after they win. Including continuing the hunger games.
The one who was the reason behind the uprise and success, was appalled by her own side. Appalled by the fact that they’d want to do to the innocent children of their enemies, that which they had suffered through and knew the horrors of.
They didn’t want equality. They wanted power.
I always think about that.
Only saw the movie once, at the Hilton garden inn one night, it was on like 24/7 and I ended up kinda catching the whole thing in pieces.
I never watched it again, was never a fan of the series. Not my usual genre.
But I did respect that.
A lot.
And I find myself thinking about it often today, because of what I see.
And the worst is that the ones wanting to punish innocent people, they didn’t even experience the suffering they want to punish innocent people over.

Maybe not TRULY color alone, as financial standing and origin of birth holds some pretty heavy sway, but i understand the sentiment.
Drive through any ghetto. How many of those ppl do you think COULD get out from there, and what is required?
That's certainly not THE SAME as many others have it (but it's also not limited to any one race).
@GeneralG1810 Says:
Remember when Oprah interviewed Meghan and they both talked about how oppressed black people are. Yup that's right, a billionaire and a literal Princess were telling people they were oppressed!
@bent540 Says:
fact is black people get into schools they dont deserve based on the skin color! the anti racist movement has gone full circle and become racist!
and for doing that in white peoples own countries there will be a war you fokers are not prepared for! white people are born of war and we will remind you!

@yettykitty4893 Says:
My older brother attended a virtually all white college in Northern VT in the late 80’s/early 90’s. The non-whites were a small group of Hispanics from all over, and students from Japan and many other countries who were enrolled in the ESLA Program (learning English as a Second Language).
I attended the same college and spent my Sophomore and Junior year living in the beautiful newly built “International Townhouses”. I would help my housemates with their homework and they would help me learn Spanish. 31 years later, I’m still friends with these women and have visited their homes in Puerto Rico, an hour south of Mexico City, Colombia, Guatemala, and a beautiful part of Japan. They are still my best friends to this day. The white women on campus, for the most part, were not very friendly, or they were nuts - I’ll leave it at that.
My brother spent a semester at Xavier University is New Orleans, an all black University.
Similarly, one black student was selected from Xavier to attend a semester at St. Michael’s College, which back then, as I said, was (virtually) an all white small, private, Catholic, Liberal Arts college in VT and the students were all very wealthy and mostly from New England.
Each exchange student was able to experience what life was like being a different skin color than your classmates (which fast forward to the year 2024, almost 2025, and thankfully, colleges and universities have become much more diverse and for the most part, Gen Z students have been raised to accept people for who they are on the inside ❤️), but in this post, i’m talking about the experience of each exchange student from over 35 years ago.
I can’t speak for the black student’s experience because I didn’t know him, nor did I meet him. The students only needed a C in each class to transfer as credits only; the GPA didn’t transfer because each college wanted the student to focus on their experience/experiment.
My brother was eligible for “Work Study” so for 20 hours/week he’d work on campus to help reduce student debt. One of his jobs was to help the teachers grade multiple choice exams. Often times the students would leave commentary on their exams. Almost all of the professors were white back then at this all black university. My brother had a 4.0 GPA as an Economics major, again, even though he was only required to achieve a 2.0 to transfer the credits, not the grades.
The commentary from the black students unanimously said that the white professors were racist and that’s the only reason why my brother was “the smartest in every class”. My brother only made 1 friend the entire semester, his roommate. They lost touch after the semester was over. No one truly wanted my brother there. My brother left with the impression that the students were the most racist students he’d ever met, and it was confirmed by their commentary on exams and surveys. As part of Work Study, he even worked as a “junior professor/aid” in the Computer Science lab and would help the students complete their programming requirements and/or study for upcoming exams on the outdated language “Pascal”. Not one student became even an acquaintance nor did my brother feel like they were thankful or grateful for his help and dedication.
Years have past and much progress has been made so now my brother has a diverse group of friends in Boston but he’ll never forget how the students at Xavier University made him feel all those years ago. Isolated, unlikeable, unwanted, and they were flat out racist towards him. That was his experience.
I can speak for my brother and people all over the United States that we are grateful that times have changed and while racism still exists (from all walks of life), we have all come a long way to realize that we are all Americans, Neighbors, Coworkers, Friends, and even Family. I think living through 9/11 when everyone came together as ONE in LOVE and UNITY, was a huge turning point in our country. Our lives will forever be divided by that tragic day. There was literally “life before 9/11 and then life after 9/11”. As tragic as it was, and it still haunts me, so much GOOD and lasting LOVE came from that day of everyone coming together and helping everyone and anyone in need.
Thanks for reading.
