White Student Returns $1,000 Scholarship Intended For Black Students
Imagine the opposite ?....It would not be allowed or legal...
I think its so incredibility telling....lefties don't know racism even when it hits them square in the face....
Just imagine the opposite.....take a scholarship away from a black student and tell them it was meant only for a white student and watch what happens.....
We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce
We have a Black Chamber of Commerce
We have a Black History Month.
We have the United Negro College Fund
We have Black Entertainment Television Network....
We have a Miss Black American pageant, white woman not allowed
We have over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges in the USA
Take any one of those an replace Black with White and watch the ramifications.....
It is undeniable that racism is alive and well in the USA, and the dreams of those that of us that recognize and despise racism,
and the dreams of Dr. M. L. King are long dead....
Now you all can commence with the name calling, etc., it won't bother me a bit, ..... but whatever you do, don't address the content of the post.....
Like Poet said....."If its true, it ain't racism"......
I did indeed address the OP my friend .. AND, sexism and diversity does indeed matter, although they may not be your favorite topics. Trying to narrowly define what is racist not only supports exactly what I said, it also betrays the absolute falsehood of the OP.
The OP suggests that democrats were racist because the dixiecrat wing of the then Democratic Party stood in the way of racial progress. Yet, I repeat, democrats had more African-Americans in Congress in 1969 then republicans have had collectively since 1969. How does that not address the OP?
Tell me how one makes such a silly claim when this is the reality?
1971

Republicans have never had that many African-Americans in Congress since the days of Reconstruction .. and they never will.
There is NO comparison to the number of elected black democrats in comparison to elected black republicans .. which would include a black president.
Unless you believe that blacks don't need black representation, I fail to see where you make a logical point on this issue. I fail to see where republicans have lived up to the thoughts of Dirksen.
Additionally, my post was not a rant against white people, but rather the truth about the Republican Party. The two are not the same thing. White females have always been ahead of the racist curve.
Racism is alive and well in the US, but it's concentrated within the Republican Party and its supporters .. which is not to suggest that all republicans are racist.
How members of a nearly all-white political party point fingers at the other guys and call THEM racist is as I said .. humorous to the nth degree and mindbogglingly ignorant.
I am not a democrat, nor do I support this president .. but truth stands all by itself.
Again....your reply is irrelevant to my posts.....
Maybe you should try actually reading my post in bold at the top....
MY post deals with A 17-year-old student at King High School in Riverside has returned a $1,000 scholarship intended for black students because he is white.
Nothing more, nothing less....and the second with 'black only' conditions that would not be tolerated if the roles were reversed....
I don't need a history lesson about what YOU think about 1970's or 80's or whatever....
I didn't mention anything about how many black Republicans there are or were or will be.....
The days of Reconstruction are irrelevant as is the subjects of sexism and diversity to my post....
I didn't narrowly define what is racist, I said this event at this High School is racist....
You say, "The OP suggests that democrats were racist because the dixiecrat wing of the then Democratic Party stood in the way of racial progress. Yet, I repeat, democrats had more African-Americans in Congress in 1969 then republicans have had collectively since 1969. How does that not address the OP?"
There is nothing in the OP about dixiecrats or blacks in congress at all....your post is meandering all over creation and is totally inappropriate to the what the
issue of the thread
Either sober up or wait until you 'come down to earth' before you respond....lol...just a friendly dig, bro.
