Discuss Is the left once again taking it too far? I think they always take it too far, but in this case, I will not ever be made to feel ashamed at being white. Discuss in a rational, non-name-calling manner. (You know who you are)

I honestly think its BS. I will not feel guilty, nor apologetic for something that I had absolutely no control over to begin with.
I worked hard, I went to school, I spent many nights studying for my tech certifications, I still work hard, I pay my bills, I pay my taxes, So I am proud to be able to "step forward if I know I can get a loan anywhere" as I worked my ass off and made many sacrifices for it to be that way. If you walk into a bank and cannot get a loan, I guarantee you it has nothing to do with color. The last 4 loans I had, I did online anyway, and was never even asked my ethnicity or gender......
This is a direct veiled attempt to once again attack the white.... as if reverse racism will somehow change the past..... I think classes like this breed more racism and hate than they subdue....

Why you would be ashamed of yer color skin anyway? Or yer skin color. White as much color as anything else. Who gives a monkey bum, except for the Ortodox Church 8)

Certain groups want people to grow up thinking that they owe something to others because of their skin color. This is so fucked up it's beyond belief. Cultivating this line of thinking can in no way make amends for the past.......

Well, Snoop Dogg would've been further ahead than me. So I think Snoop Dogg should sit down and think about how his situation affects me. And then write me a large check, because I deserve it.

I've always felt that people who worry about "racial identity" are themselves racist people. Why do we continue to report (for example) that Dennis Green holds the record for winning percentage among African American coaches? Do we say, "Carl Lewis holds the most gold medals in track among African American athletes?" No, that would be "racist.
If there's a legitimate handicap, then report it... for example, the record for the 100 yard dash, wheelchair division. What does Dennis Green's race have to do with his winning percentage? Nothing, that's what. Yet leftist weirdos want to make sure we all "identify" our races.
Why is there still a "RACE" box on most job applications? Because of affirmative action? Its bullshit. You're either qualified to work, or you're not. You can qualify for a loan, or you can't. You were actually "owned" as a slave and deserve reparations, or you don't. You win more football games as a coach than anybody else, or you don't.

What really pisses me off, is that since I am in a "mixed" relationship, my child will probably be identified as a minority, and will have this crap pushed in his/her face all the time, then I have to worry about all the misguided info he/she will get at school...... It could be very confusing....

Jarome Iginla, 2002 - 1st African American to ever win an NHL scoring title! (or was he actually GIVEN 20 points for being black?)
Hmm, makes you think what would happen if the University of Michigan ruled the world, could you imagine the scores of NBA games?

Isn't this what college is all about today? Demonizing the white man.
Why do you think most colleges have so-called "diversity requirements". It's to teach the new lexicon of the hard left that the straight white male is evil. Everyone else in society is a victim.
Working adults get the same shit in corporate mandated "diversity training".
Typical course requirement of colleges today. Especially state and public universities. Not surprised this is in Massachusetts. How the fuck would you know what goes on in a college or large corporation, when you have no degree or never worked at a large company?

I call BULLSHIT on the whole "I am non caucatian and can not get ahead in life".
We make choices, we reap the rewards or wrath of our mistakes. Stereo typing is only for the weak. If you get turned down for an apartment (old 60 minutes story) because you are black, then the looser is the person turning you down.
You get turned down for a bankloan if you credit rating does not warrant it.
The majority of the wealth in Vancouver is in the Asian and Indo Canadian communities. We have more poor white trash areas than New York has Ghetto's. Do I feel sorry?. NO you have a choice in life. do not fucking cry to me if you are unemployed and can not afford the basics in life. There is work out there, just a question of how picky you are. If I lost my job tomorrow you would find my flinging burgers at Mcdicks in the morning and washing cars in the afternoon, while I was searching for a job in my field.
There is only one race, everything else is a flaw in the matrix
