![]() Something I don't understand is this double standard that exists about living in a "colorblind" society. We (white folks) are supposed to see the worlds people as one. We are not supposed to identify someone by their race or ethnic background. But this doesn't seem to apply to any one else. take for example this weeks Oscars. There was so much made of the fact that it was the first time a black woman won the best actress, and that it was significant that both the best acting Oscars were won by a black actor and actress. What happend to being colorblind? What about the Latin Grammy Awards? Does that mean we can have a White Grammy Awards, and intentionally shun everyone else? For that matter, what about the NAACP? Why is it permissible to have an organization who's primary purpose is the betterment of a particular race or ethic group, as long as they're not white. If you started an organization who's primary directive was to better the life of white people, you would clearly be classified as a racist, and condemned by most. I'm not saying white folks are oppressed, but there is a clear double standard, and I'm kinda sick of it.
And they're filing a lawsuit. Take care, -Chris
