Call it what it is, it’s racism.

By virtue of their race, some people are entitled to things I can never have, no matter how hard I work, no matter how much I accomplish - by virtue of my humble birth, I will never have the “Equality” given to those who’s ancestry differs from mine.

Does this, in any way, correct the injustices done by white people I have nothing in common with? My ancestors were not in this country at the time. In fact, I can show that my ancesters spent their lives fighting slavery, as Missionaries in Madagascar, risking their lives and the lives of thier families. Is there anything I could have done, but failed to do, to have prevented these injustices performed decades or centuries before my birth?

Yet, I am denied the benefits that are freely given to others, based solely upon the color of my skin.

I’ve been saying for years that the left is promoting a form of neo-feudalism.
This is just part of it. By reason of whom you’re born to, some are entitled to things other people are not.

My dad was a Cherokee. All my life people would tell me that I should apply for all the benefits I'm “entitled” to. I would just tell them I'm not entitled to something just because bad thingd happened to my ancestors as it didn't happen to me. I had the same opportunities if I acted on my own an I don't need special privileges.
