I have worked retail. We watched anyone who looked like they might steal something.
not being harassed by police,
I just got stopped yesterday and I'm white.
having easier access to better schools, jobs and housing,
I live in a decent neighborhood...not the best, by any means, but decent. There are white people, black people and Spanish people living in my neighborhood and going to my kids' schools.
and not being asked whether skin color or affirmative action got you a job.
Well, I can tell you, I have been looking for a job, now, for a few weeks. Believe it or not, I noticed there have been very few white people working where I have applied. I wish they could use some of that 'affirmative action' on me.
O yeah? Has anyone noticed the Winona Ryder case?
