Affirmative Action is needed. Black college graduates make less in their field than White College graduates in the same field. A study was conducted in which many employers admitted to not giving Blacks a fair chance in the job market despite education level. Blacks don't get treated fairly and that is a fact. im not saying the world is against black people but its much harder being black. Whites have advantages that Blacks just don't have.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4053072130853133013.post-59829567488643233852009-03-05T14:53:00.000-05:002009-03-05T14:53:00.000-05:00Let me guess there Macon...you must be BLACK?

Unless one says or shows someone who's explicitly African American, Asian American and so on, "American" means "white." The word "white" doesn't have to be there for that to be true.<BR/><BR/>There already is an white counterpart to BET--it's called HBO. MTV is another one. Just because they have token representation of non-white people on them doesn't mean they're not de facto "white" networks.<BR/><BR/>Affirmative action? Meh. Trying to make up for the cumulative, ongoing effects of 400 years of White Affirmative Action that way causes too much resentment among clueless whites for it to be an effective form of recompense. <BR/><BR/>"Reverse racism"? That's only a well-fondled term for those who don't realize the advantages that still accrue to whites in general from the cumulative effects of 400 years of White Affirmative Action. Not to mention a recent, more specific form, the biggest affirmative action in U.S. history, the GI Bill, which was also by and large, and in effect, for American white men (whose descendents by and large continue to enjoy the accumulated effects of that moment of vocational, residential, and educational governmental largesse). Funny how white folks complain about recent affirmative action for other groups, but ignore the centuries of affirmative action that still generally benefit and empower their group.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4053072130853133013.post-84500980910802153382009-03-01T19:38:00.000-05:002009-03-01T19:38:00.000-05:00Sure Macon Bacon...let me quess, you also believe ...Sure Macon Bacon...let me quess, you also believe Affirmative Action is just another way of leveling out the playing field, and its OK to have reverse racism. By the way, can see the reaction if whites had their own BET (Black Entertainment Television network), or White American Colleges that ran commercials saying a White Mind is a terrible thing to waste.Royce Penstingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15097783614648808652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4053072130853133013.post-57874619169298798462009-03-01T16:02:00.000-05:002009-03-01T16:02:00.000-05:00We don't need another White People News. We alread...We don't need another White People News. We already have it, on many networks, just with different names--CNN, MSNBC, ABC, and so on. Witness their obsession, for instance, with Pretty Missing White Females. WAAAAAAAY more of those than missing non-white girls, pretty or otherwise. Just one example of MANY of how ordinary American "news" is basically "white news," coming from an unquestioned, unlabeled, unexamined white perspective.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
