Reverse Racism

This week while reading through the discussion question responses, I came across one that I posted on and that got me thinking about reverse racsim against whites. The article that this girl has chosen to write over was about a black coach at a college who had made his team a great sucess but when it came to the budget they did not give him the money for the program that he thought was deserved. She talked about how this was considered racsim because he was a black coach and that this was the reason they would not give him the money for the program. This really got me thinking that it was pretty much revesre racism to assume that the school officials being white as it was implied would be refusing him money based on his race, not even considering that the reason perhaps that they didnt give him the money was becuase sucess or no sucess black coach or not that there was just simlpy not enough money in the budeget to give the amount of money the coach thought he and the program deserved.

I am seeing it more and more each day as we have been talking about Racism, that every where you look people want to pull out the race or the racsim card and that it mainly whites who are being accused or threatend by this. I undestand that yes white people are the ones who gave birth to slavery in the U.S.A and that it was again whites who continued to treat African Americans as though they where beneath us or equilvelant to property but just as people came to see that that was unfair and wrong is it not wrong to assume also that all racsim comes and is practiced by whites alone. Whites not only get the accused of rascim against blacks but of almost all races. It has gotten to a point that almost all places are required to hire or accept or pick someone of a diffrent race into thier instutions and establishments in fear that they will be slapped with a lawsuit for racsim regarless of the fact that maybe those applicants where just under qualified for the job.

Just like the coach from the article, no one wants to take into considertation that there could infact be other reasons and justifications behind what people due that is in no way shape or form related to someones race which really leads me to ask the question how long are whites going to have to pay the price for our ancestors mistakes?
