racism lives

apparently, a caucasian only scholarship offered by Boston University is a deep dark sin, accordin' to the powers-that-be....
reference this article http://abcnews.go.com/US/story?id=2674267&page=1 .
as of 24 november 2006, the publishing date of the article referenced, if a person was one quarter caucasian, they qualified for a $250.00
Caucasian Achievement and Recognition Scholarship, provided they also jumped through a few not unreasonable academic requirement hoops.
so far, not a single taker....

the United Negro College Fund , on the other hand, helps 65,000 black folks per year, based entirely on race and skin color, but that seems to be ok as is Boston University's National Hispanic Recognition Scholarship.
personally, i'm of the belief that race should have zero bearing on such, but, apparently, the mere fact that i'm a caucasian ( and american indian, and whatever else is in the gene pool that constitutes me as a person ) makes my opinion invalid, and somehow, makes me responsible for the sins of my cousins many generations ago that may or may not have owned slaves.....
hmmm, interesting concept there......
weren't most blacks sold into slavery by other blacks as a result of inter-tribal warfare, etc.?

along these lines, whats with the NAACP ?
thats a decidely racially-biased outfit, yet any buncha folks who want to support caucasians only is automatically labelled a racist hate group.....
then, there is the Black Entertainment Network , yet another racially biased
"institution " with no counterpart oriented to caucasians.......
get over it, ya jerks, people are people, doesn't matter skin color, eye color, or even the name of the god or goddess they worship, follow, or pay homage to, a blacks blood and organs can save my life , and vice versa, we are all humans here, fuck all that claptrap about one race bein' better than another, or worthy of special circumstances or considerations....
