What magical state is this?

It's a common belief amongst uneducated whites.
Conservative hatemonger politicians promote and exploit this belief.
 
well youre right, I should have said you get scholarships based on your skin colour.

And also, "here" meant in the USA. I'm not American.
I'm just wondering why the English black people aren't all up in arms and living in the past like a lot of the American black people are. From what I've heard, they were treated worse there. Did you know that they still celebrate their slaves Christmas?

From reading your posts, you'd come across as being the uneducated white you speak of. ;)

I'm white enough, if not exactly creme de la WASP.
And I dropped out of school after the 8th grade, and got a GED when I turned 16.

But "uneducated" is a mindset; I'm self-educated, and as best as I can tell, I've done as good a job educating myself as colleges and universities have done educating most of the people around me.

Well, you're allowed to think what you want. ;)
 
What magical state is this?

"United Negro College Fund"

At a time when a college degree is what a high school diploma was to previous generations, the minimum entry-level requirement for almost every well-paying career, UNCF plays a critical role in enabling more than 65,000 students each year to attend college and get the education they want and deserve. To close the educational attainment gap between African Americans and the majority population, UNCF helps promising students attend college and graduate

The UNCF Frederick D. Patterson Research Institute focuses on the educational status of African Americans of all ages from preschool through adulthood. The Institute seeks to understand and expand the multiple pathways leading to educational attainment. Using varied research methods, the institute serves to positively impact public policy and improve local practice for African Americans and education.


The UNCF Institute for Capacity Building supports strengthening the capacity of the 39 UNCF member private historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) in the areas of fundraising, enrollment and retention, academic programming and faculty development, financial management, historic preservation of campus facilities, executive leadership and governance

Just an example :2wave:

The question as asked before.

What do you suppose would happen if I were to found a "United Blanco College Fund"?

Let's take those quotes and give them a different spin.

Tell me that those quotes seem "right". Especially that last one.

I'm sure that looks great on a resume.
 
I voted "other opinion"

My opinion - certain people should be banned from starting polls.
 
I found an answer to this question. Because most of them don't have **** to give. I'm a poor college student and I'd estimate I'm better off than about 60% of blacks in the US.
 
I'm just wondering why the English black people aren't all up in arms and living in the past like a lot of the American black people are.

Could be because British blacks in England make up....oh less then 2% of the population in England. As opposed to America where they make up 13% Just a thought though. The more visible the population the more likely you are to actually hear them.

Then why are whites quiet?

Or it could be that their government didnt set them up with a false sense of entitlement.

"Hey, our bad, you guys are free now."

"Thanks."

"Profit."
 
What exactly are we supossed to be being loud about?
Why don't you read the associated posts so you understand what you're asking me?

Or it could be that the British still have racist measures like the Common Wealth Immigration act in place.

Why do you speak rhetoric?
