Maybe this would be close to how many here feel about the topic of racism, few others excluded it seems. While I don't think this is 100% correct, it's pretty close for me. Whether it is "snopeable or not" I don't know or care, it is the thought I'm looking at here.
Proud to be White
Michael Richards makes his point...
Michael Richards better known as Kramer
From TVs Seinfeld does make a good point.
This was his defense speech in court after making racial comments
In his comedy act. He makes some very interesting points...
Someone finally said it... How many are actually paying attention
To this? There are African Americans, Mexican Americans, Asian
Americans, Arab Americans, etc. And then there are just
Americans. You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction.
You call me 'White boy,' 'Cracker,' '******,' '******,' 'Caveman'
... And that's OK.
But when I call you, ******, ****, Towel head, Sand-******, Camel
Jockey, ******, ****, or ***** ... You call me a racist. You say that
Whites commit a lot of violence against you... So why are the ghettos
The most dangerous places to live?
You have the United ***** College Fund. You have Martin Luther
King Day. You have Black History Month.. You have Cesar Chavez
Day. You have Yom Hashoah. You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi. You have
The NAACP. You have BET... If we had WET (White Entertainment
Television), we'd be racists. If we had a White Pride Day, you would
Call us racists. If we had White History Month, we'd be racists.
If we had any organization for only whites to 'advance'
OUR, lives we'd be racists.
We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber of
Commerce, and then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce.
Wonder who pays for that??
A white woman could not be in the Miss Black American pageant,
But any color can be in the Miss America pageant.
If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships
...You know we'd be racists.
There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges in the US .
Yet if there were 'White colleges' That would be a racist college.
In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching
For your race and rights.
If we marched for our race and rights, you would call us racists.
You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange,
And you're not afraid to announce it.
But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists.
You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us. But, when a white police
Officer shoots a black gang member or beats up a black drug-
Dealer running from the law and posing a threat to society, you
Call him a racist.
I am proud... But you call me a racist.
Why is it that only whites can be racists??
