...unless they are actually victims of direct racism or are put at a disadvantage as a result of institutionalised racism (e.g. white privilege).

Institutionalized racism is something of the past. What about black privilege & affirmative action?

If you find that than you might want to take a look at the arguments you make. Because the people who say these sorts of things are often professional victims.

I think you may want to examine the fact that you do not have any good arguments regarding this subject. I do not feel like a victim to anyone, by the way.

Neither do I

By the way, Ego, even if I or anyone else did feel like a victim, how would that invalidate anything?

I think you're under the impression that 'institutionalized' is synonymous with 'legally enforced'. It is not. Here is something you might want to look at.

Quote:The 50 percent gap in callback rates is statistically very significant, Bertrand and Mullainathan note in Are Emily and Greg More Employable than Lakisha and Jamal? A Field Experiment on Labor Market Discrimination (NBER Working Paper No. 9873). It indicates that a white name yields as many more callbacks as an additional eight years of experience. Race, the authors add, also affects the reward to having a better resume. Whites with higher quality resumes received 30 percent more callbacks than whites with lower quality resumes. But the positive impact of a better resume for those with Africa-American names was much smaller.

"While one may have expected that improved credentials may alleviate employers' fear that African-American applicants are deficient in some unobservable skills, this is not the case in our data," the authors write. "Discrimination therefore appears to bite twice, making it harder not only for African-Americans to find a job but also to improve their employability."

Black , white , green, brown.. its just a COLOR!!.. WTF! WE ALL CRAP SITTING DOWN..

Ego - there are complications in dealing with racism is all I could derive from your video, oh and the video reeks of oversimplification of problems.

The racialist agenda is also being used to force cultural Jihad upon the West.




Blacks are equal in every way to whites, both biologically & also nowadays under the law. Here in Nova Scotia a couple years ago there was a hate crime against a mixed-race couple. The media make a huge deal over it. And you know what? They were right to make such a big deal over it because hate crimes are truly horrific. But don't go telling me that our society is racist, because it is not. We care about the equality of racial minorities. But sometimes we take it too far, & see racism where there is none.
