I don't see how I am 'selfishly looking after only myself,' unless 'selfishly looking after only myself' means 'not wanting to be discriminated against because I have white skin.'
This isn't about your white skin. This is about companies not hiring races other than white people. This is about putting an end to that
privilege. AA says you can do whatever you want with your skin, but no longer will you be able to get hired over an equally meritable black person because of your skin color.
The 'role'? What 'role'? There is no separate 'role' for black men or white men.
Of course not. What I'm addressing is the history of that belief that continues to be perpetuated by people like you and
>>3. That belief still effects people today and is a cause of racial disparity and white privilege.
You do understand that at one point, blacks were slaves and were denied basic civil rights, correct? You do read history, yes? Can you spell history, at least? You do realize that it was superiority and the greed of the private sector that made slavery possible in the FIRST PLACE, right?
'We'? I didn't exploit anyone, and thus I don't have any moral duty to empower you. This is capitalism. If you want to become 'empowered,' go 'empower' yourself. Work.
People are trying to work, but companies keep on hiring whites even though there are equally meritable people of other races around. You're either with or against, I'm afraid. If you feel that you have no moral duty to empower those you exploit, then, in this case I'm afraid you aren't for equality, democracy, freedom or fairness.
Your belief in Capitalism has left you with a crippled morality. If effect, if you allow yourself to have advantage, when you know it's based on race, then you ARE the exploiter and you must be stopped.
