Reverse Racism

This definition is well needed on this platform: The fundamental idea that racism toward white people is not as bad as racism towards other minority groups. Yes, a minority can be racist towards a white person, but the inherent idea of reverse racism is that the discrimination minorities face solely because of their race should not be compared to the "so -called" discrimination that white people face. When white people are denied jobs because of their physical characteristics associated with their race, denied housing in a certain neighborhood because of their race, denied admission into a school SOLELY because of their race (that exceeds the thousands of minority groups rejected from schools throughout American history) , then they might be able to complain about racism. When white people are killed solely because of their race or have their academic credentials questioned because of their race, then they can complain about racism. Until this happens, white people should not compare the racist comments (because that's literally as bad as racism gets for them) to the racist actions that have literally killed millions of minorities throughout American history because it is an unequal comparison and utterly disrespectful to the minority groups that have been murdered because of a God-given physical characteristic.

racism

Any opposition by whites to official policies of racial preference for non-whites. It is any preference by whites for their own people and culture. It is any resistance by whites to the idea of becoming a minority people. It is any unwillingness to be pushed aside. It is, in short, any of the normal aspirations of people-hood that have defined nations since the beginning of history - but only so long as the aspirations are those of whites.

John is pissed that he didnt get into MIT and hates affirmative action. He got a 1475 on his SAT and had 3.9 GPA, but a mexican or black with an 1100 and a 3.1 gpa took his spot. Can you believe this guy's audacity? Just another clear example of white racism...

Mary was talking to some of her non-white friends who argued that Ray Nagin was right in demanding that New Orleans remain a chocolate City. Mary asserted using parallel logic that she wants America to remain a majority white nation. Her non-white friends looked at her in horror and accused her of racism.
