You lash us with whips, force us to pick cotton, and even after the ending of slavery. Society looks upon us with scorn. I have a dream that one day a man will truly not be judged by his skin color but by his actions.
Oh, I can do that right now for you. You're extremely dramatic and extremely manipulated by stupid ideologies. See? Judged you by your comment, which is an action. Happy now?

Who are you to call another mans ideology stupid or wrong? Is there a given law that says so? Believe that ones own ideology or skin or race is superior is what i think you might be exhibiting .

Exactly. It's pathetic. I am currently at university. I did enem last year, and thankfully, I was able to enter ufmg. But once you enter it, you'll notice that many people support these measures, the "cotas". And I'll warn you right now: If you're against such mindset, and you've shown in this thread, stay as far as you can from "human sciences" people. There's something VERY wrong with them.
Sociology?
What do you mean?
For me there is also another problem, the people from the south taking the spots on my state's college
But anyway, "cotas" are BS

For 500 years africans have been slaves, dehumanized in every way possible and you ask not even 50 years since MLK's death if there exists racial favouritism or white privilege?

Yes.

An ideology that, if implanted, would cause an incredible ammount of problems to society while TRYING to solve one is a stupid ideology. You know what dictates that? Logic. Maybe you would see it if you tried more logic and less drama.

Sociology, philosophy, hell, social comunication, the list goes on. Human sciences, in general. I guess not so much with law(direito), but the rest? Urg...
They support socialism, anarchism, the end of police, privileges for opressed minorities(while claiming "equality"), the list of stupidity also goes on.

Honestly it's really not as bad as it was. Idk about other countries but the US was built on racism and it's gotten better. White people struggle just as much as others.

How is helping the oppressed minorities get equal rights and situations as the oppressors a stupidity?
Lets just let the oppressed minorities live in oppression and thats a good idea?

Logic I see.

Wow, reading is not your strong suit it, is it? There is a gigantic difference between fighting for equal rights and fighting for compensation. Difference I've been explaining through the comments. Pay attention and stop being dramatic.

No you wouldn't, because I'm not white. Stop trying to win the discussion with drama. Also, the belief you mentioned is shared by extremists. And extremism of any kind is harmful to society.

My momma was raised in the era when clean water was only served to the fairer skin. Doing clothes you would have thought blacks had help But they wasn't satisfied unless they picked the cotton myself. [White Man]
Thankfully this generation is improving.

It exists but there's nothing you can do about it. Just compare the students who go to public schools versus charter/private schools and the ratio of students who graduate college and then find a career. Then again it's more about who has more money or connections, which sometimes "white people" fall into over other minorities in the US.

I'm indifferent, since on one hand you have white people like me who came from poor backgrounds. Maybe some people perceive me as having more charisma because I'm white, I don't know, I can't really tell.

One thing I do know is though, getting a non-government scholarship is ridiculously hard as a White Male. There aren't any "apply if you're a white male," meaning I have to mostly just do essay scholarships, which the winner is chosen through subjective whim. It's hard to rack up a quantity of essays that you think will win to increase your chances. There might even be prejudice against white male in that, I'm not sure. Not going to complain though, I can find other ways.

My conclusion: Doesn't matter what exists. Life is absolutely hard work. You're dealt some cards, good and bad. You can only play that hand to the best of your abilities, and that's what I intend to do, even in an unfair world.
