I have an extensive education in racism. A real life one:
People of a certain demographic have tried (and failed) to mug me three times.
I have a friend of that demo who invited me to his home, and his uncle tried to pick a fight with specifically for being a “cracker” who he thought was taking advantage of his nephew. My friend backed him off.
I had better grades and test scores than a slew of people of that demographic who got into Stanford Law on full ride scholarships. I was not admitted.
These are a small sample of my experiences.
Yes, I know all about racism.
We should conduct a test.
Line up 5 random blacks from the streets of Ferguson and hand them each $1 million in cash, with the only requirement being that they need to come back to this same place in a year to report how they are doing.
My bet is that all 5 would have zero dollars.
Me too. I have had a few work place reverse discrimination experiences myself.
