  Then I guess it's time for a White Caucus in Congress and picketing in the streets for White Rights and to pray for a special advocate to rise up like a White "Martin Luther King" so's us Whites will be properly represented.
  Why not? Hey, almost every other ethnic group, religious group, age group, sexual-fetish group, gender group, etc., have now joined the ranks of those who want their "special" rights, so we might as well be fair about this.
  
  I've actually been saying it for a while now, just everyone laughs at me. (Well, not everyone, but most people; I don't wanna claim ....gulp.....intolerance and discrimination without total proof)........
  
  I figure the minority I fit into will go something like....
  
  WATCHOUT (White And Totally Christian Heterosexuals Only United Together)
  
  There are many possibilities.
  
  Time for us Whites to start bein' activists like our dear President! Heck, the Islamists and the Mexicans and the Gays are way ahead of us. We sure do need to start lobbying for some of that government money that gets shifted to all those other special interest groups. And hey, there's an LGBT group in almost every state school system now, so yeah us Whites (especially us White Straights ((mind you, that's a small unique category these days worth even seeing about if we can get us some FREE legal representation))) sure do need to get our act together if we're not gonna fall through the cracks in the Great System.
  
  It should be easy. But come to think of it, maybe we could ride the coattails of the gay movement...........If'n we make a group called Whites Who Love Weird Sex or Whites Who Want The Rights To Pick Our Noses in Public And Anyone Who Says Anything Against It Will Be Prosecuted For Hate Speech, or sumthin', we might catch the ear of some great wonderful activist who will further our agenda quite quickly.

  I think it's been tried by the KKK and all white supremacist groups but the problem is that the first thing they advocate is violence and theories about how superior they are. Maybe if they start a peaceful group then it might work.

  The KKK was a horrible offensive terrorist group, not a defensive one.
  
  Qwark posed the idea of whites becoming a minority. To which I propose that we WILL (if we aren't already) become very oppressed and harrassed and intimidated just like the legitimate black race WAS and just like the fake rights movement of others who claim minority status. We will have to put ourselves on the defensive and protect our poor oppressed butts. And I'm sure we'll have to never ever pose the idea that we're actually PROUD of being White, 'cause remember this generation and all others to follow must be held responsible for slavery that our forefathers perpetuated. Already condemned guilty just because of the color of my skin ...

  Absolute NONSENSE. No people in human history have ever done more in generosity & given more in charity to another people than the completely unrecognized (and for the most part unappreciated) white toward black.
  
  Black crime - black racism - has also exploded against the white population - a stigma , I believe, the black race will be forced to recognize. The victims are there. They will ONE DAY have to be recognized- and most likely compensated. Telling blacks a lie that they are - or was - victims in America is irresponsible & only provokes them.

  Vote:
  --prior to 1965 Blacks always had the option of creating their own political environments (cites) . And lack of voting rights in some states in no reason to do violence against that group. Also no reason for continues - never ending - monetary compensation
  
  discrimination:
  --My research: blacks were generally hired in every urban area in America by white people approximating their local population percent. No laws pre1964 made them do it. They just did it. Blacks produced virtually no jobs for white people. A sore spot for sure for whites.
  
  Housing:
  No reason to do violence against a people for this issue. People living among their own people is no stigma or wrong. Blacks were always free to build their own urban housing. The white tax base also created tens of thousands of public subsidized housing to aid them in seeking new employment opportunity in the urban centers when they left (mainly) the rural South.
  
  I see a continued and sustained history of the vast majority of white people only trying to better the livelihood of the black race. As I said, tho, it is largely unrecognized & unappreciated.

  My purpose here on the Hub pages is only to re-write the history of the black experience from 1865 to 1968. Forced integration was created by the fed. gov't in 1964; and across the forced integration was solidified with the 1968 Fair Housing Act.
  
  I'll leave it to people like you to handle post 1964...
  
  There is no question white people will be a minority in / around 2050. In CA, those under 10-years-old, the majority are non-white. Since 1960, the white population has increased about 30%. The black race has doubled. In 1960, there were less than 1 million of Mexican (Latino) descent in America. In 2010, this number is over 44 million.

  Doug, spending time in this thread only keeps you from finishing Hub#6. Here's an idea. Why don't you write about me ... and point out all my erroneous assertions. You've yet to point out ONE.
  
  --KKK died as a political force in the mid 1920s - white people rejected it
  
  -- blacks were free to build their own cities, their own industries, their own political environments, or even colonize a place in America. White people employed them the best they could - generally speaking.
  
  --Institutional educational discrimination? Hmmm. Blacks had their own universities. To say whites were better teachers for blacks - IMO- is racism Doug.
  
  --Jim Crow... Well, it was as it was. Again, blacks could have built ONE city in the South and also created their own Jim Crow laws. No one prevented them. In the South whites demanded separation of the races. They BROKE NO LAWS.

  Yes, whites outlawed slavery all over the northern states, long before the Civil War, enacted manumission laws, established abolition societies, editorialized, lectured, preached, wrote, taught against slavery, established routes for escaped slaves to reach Canada and risked their own prosperity and freedom to free others. Whites died in the hundreds of thousands, killing hundreds of thousands of other whites to end slavery in the south.
  
  We are supposed to act like all whites were oppressors, racists and slave holders and pretend that is not, itself, a racist attitude. We are supposed to plaster all whites with the same brush, the same guilt, despite the fact that a huge percentage of white Americans are descendants of immigrants who came long after the end of slavery.
  
  I feel no guilt for slavery. If a man is inferior it is a function of his personal choices and his own self-destruction not his skin color, his national origin, his parentage, lineage or any other characteristic external to himself.

  well it's a good thing they came when they did huh? let's see, about 150 years later, whew boy that was quick. seriously not discounting what they did, we appreciate,very much. i am from the north(michigan) and am well versed in the history and see the obvious differences in attitudes between the north and the south.i do wonder why those people ever agreed to slavery in the first place.
  
  it once was called by james baldwin a great black author" the rascism that rascism caused".true enough, but in this instance it's plain to see which came first the chicken or the egg.
  you let the bad ones ruin it for the good ones.why?
  
  it's the greedy,cruel swindling ones that ruined it for everyone and that created this stereotype. what i've noticed is that if the field is made level,only they,see it as unfair(reverse discrimination)make me laugh! putting a gun on someone does not make them inferior. in any given field they always excell far above the standard and are able to accomplish it even with the rascist obstacles thrown in their paths.whats inferior about that? everyone knows this. if it were true they wouldn"t try so hard to make them fail.
  
  whites had set a frame work that practically hands it to them and if anyone else gets a chance. they are the biggest whiners i have seen to date and deserve an oscar for playing victim. it's the cheaters that cry the loudest when the table starts to turn. hmmph interesting!
  
  what this reflects uncorrectedvision are symptoms that of a psychopath e.g.Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt,Paranoid,irresponsible,Goal of enslavement of their victim(s),Ultimate goal is the creation of a willing victim, Shallow Emotions and these are just a few of the symptoms that they reflected for hundreds of years. so we know it wasn't just a fluke, this is how they roll. in modern form they would be called republicans

  Sandra: "whites" have always gotten special treatment.
  
  I think you you mean blacks have always gotten special treatment (since post civil war). In my research I have found, pre 1964, they were given jobs in the white communities generally equal to the population they represented. They were paid the same wages as white people. There were virtually NO JOBS created by blacks for whites (again, pre 1964). The American gov't, run by white people, gave blacks equal access to all federal gov't programs and even funded a school of higher learning for them (Howard University - still on the gov't nipple to this day). The federal gov't also fully funded Aberdeen Gardens, a community built by black exclusively for blacks. Many , many other community housing projects were built just for blacks at taxpayers expense pre 1964.
  
  Post 1964, blacks have been given affirmative action programs, which includes double standards, contract set-asides & hiring quotas. Blacks continue to cash in: black farmers bill just passed ... giving ONLY black males (about 90 thousand) at least $50,000 in FREE money.

  I say who cares to be honest, as I prefer to adopt Martin Luther King's philosophy which is not to judge a man for the color of his skin, but for the content of their character. Therefore, it's not a problem; regardless of which race is a minority. Besides, no minority in the United States has it worse anyway than the American Indian, so we might as well stop griping.

I was just studying various subjects today and I read that in 40 - 50 yrs, maybe less, that the "latino" population in the USA would exceed the "white." That they would constitute over 60 % of the population.
"White" down thru the ages has been considered, by "Whites," to be the "privliged." As such over the past couple hundred years or so, we've played he role.
It doesn't bother me at all. I'll probably be pushing-up-daisies before it happens. I just thought it might be an interesting subject to "chat" about.

  Yes; in some states of the deep south, whites have been the minority for some time, yet are still oppressively in charge.
  
  On a more positive note, it certainly seems that the southwestern United States is re-claiming its traditional heritage prior to US conquest in the 1840s: that of a former Spanish colony. Out of five marriages of friends and family I have witnessed over the past two years (including my own) all five Anglo-Americans married into Mexican-American or other Hispanic families. I find that fascinating as we are seeing a new cultural mixture forming in America as the new wave of immigrants assimilates.

In the film "Cry Freedom" a judge asked Steve Biko why he calls himself a "black" man, when in fact he appears more brown. and Steve Biko replied that the judge was correct, but he wanted to know why the judge would refer to himself as "white" when he was in fact more pink. The judge had no answer. I am not white, nor am I black. When asked for my race I always reply that I am a member of the "human" race. My skin color should have no bearing on my humanity.

First off, define race.

I was born half Romanian, 1/4 German, 1/5th italian, and the rest was a big blob of other stuff. Am I my own race? or is that just "white".

If I'm just "white", why is that the case? I take offense to being called "white" the same way that a Japanese person would get mad if they were called Chinese; I'm a unique breed of "races".

But on top of that, where does the definition of heritage end? If we follow the theory of evolution, we all were born in Africa - and thus we're all Africans.

Race has no definition, and thus is mostly nonsense.

The color of our skin or our ethnicity has nothing to do with who we are. We are individuals first. For us who are white, it is really only a category which means nothing.

We will have a hard time changing people who are racist but we as individual can decide not be racist. We can also decide to not be sexist or to judge people by any superficial quality which has no bearing on who are as individuals.

If whites become a minority, it wont matter one bit unless we make it matter.

Actually..............

Maybe we will think of ourselves as a part of great mixture of cultures instead of the only culture that matters. Who knows it may change our attitude for the better.

  "LONDON (AFP) - The Church of England apologised for its historical role in the slave trade, accepting it was directly implicated in it. At a meeting of the Church's synod in London it recognised "the damage done to those who are the heirs of those who were enslaved".
  
  It voted to apologise during a debate on the "dehumanising and shameful" consequences of slavery, abolished in Britain in 1807.
  
  The Church was implicated through its Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts and the properties it owned overseas, notably in Barbados in the West Indies.
  
  The Reverend Simon Bessant, from Blackburn in northern England, recalled how slaves owned by the Church had the word "society" branded on their chests."

  That is a good point. Europeans didn't just import slaves from Africa, they imported the whole concept of slavery.
  
  The reason most of the slaves were black was because there was a long tradition of taking people into slavery in Africa, where most people are black, and there was no such tradition of taking people into slavery in Europe - therefore most of the slaves were Africans just for that reason.

  Any conquered nation was captured by its oppressors and made slaves. Even early in the history of the 12 tribes, it's documented in the Bible the tribes went in and took over land, cities and people and made it their land and home. Survivors of the take-overs were made slaves even to the tribes.
  
  It DIDN'T start in Europe, it started in the earliest civilizations of mankind. The crime and tragedy is that it was perpetuated at all.
  
  Fear of "pollution" of local traditions and customs, intolerance of ideas different from their own are also a couple of reasons why people have warred and taken over whole countries.

  yes it was money, greed that created slavery. big business , they never want to pay,. . . anyone. if it's not slaves, then it's child labor, then the male work force, now women and if they can't do that, they pack up and go to a third world country where the really don't have to pay.

  Deborah you are aware that Native Americans HELPED the settlers and pilgrims to live off the land and how to hunt for food when they first got to America. Plus, where do you think the art of "guerrilla warfare" came from? Many European countries used to fight where all their soldiers would meet up in broad daylight on a battle field. However, it was the Indians who taught settlers the art of guerrilla warfare, that gave the settlers a particular advantage during the revolutionary war later on.
  
  Indians back then didn't have a fair comprehension of land ownership. This is particularly how the settlers were able to coerce many Native Americans out of their homes and land, as to them nature was god. Hence, to them, they didn't understand how anyone could own a piece of god. Plus, if you look throughout history, they were often forced to relocate various times, due to American expansion.
  
  Your right that today's modern American society and government was founded by "whites", but to say that Native Americans didn't want to share the land with anyone is a fairly naive statement. If that were the case, then wouldn't the Native Americans have sooner not helped the settlers at all when teaching them how to live off the land? Wouldn't that make more sense? I'm not saying your wrong, but I just thought I'd correct you a bit in that statement.
  
  I think this statement depends on which era in American history we're talking about. Obviously, if you go back to the earlier settler days when slavery was legal, then you'd be wrong in that statement. Heck, if you just go back to the 1950's era, then you could find a lot of fallacies in your statement regarding that.
  
  However, I do see your point when it comes to TODAY'S era, as it does seem that the affirmative action practices are getting out of hand. Heck, it seems like minority groups are getting too overly sensitive these days to the slightest hint of an insult or stereotype is enough set off Al Sharpton and other minority rights leaders. Take in mind, I'm part hispanic, native american and half chinese, so I'm not being a racist by saying that either.
  
  I'm merely stating observations. Take last year's disney film, "Princess and the frog", that starred disney's first minority princess and prince. One would think that people would just enjoy the movie, as a simple harmless kid's film. WRONG. If anything, many minority groups including Al Sharpton deemed the film as racist saying they portrayed the people involved in the religion of Voodoo in a bad light. I'm sorry. Wasn't this a harmless kids cartoon? I mean for pete's sake. This is almost as bad as Christian parents who are petitioning to have the "harry potter" books and movies banned because they believe it condones and supports the art of Witch craft.
  
  I just think that a lot of minority groups need to develop thicker skin when it comes to stereotypes. Seriously, I know there was a lot of racial controversy in the past with our ancestors, but that doesn't give any of us the right to claim our ancestors' pain in their place

I will say that "white" is a myth...a concoction of very wealthy men in this nation to fight through racism the true against true freedom/democracy in this nation....

From the first Virginia Company racial laws that divided the inter-racial indentured servant work-force.....the first violent branding of fear into the American psyche..

The "overseer"...the "paddyrollers"...the creation of the new "middle man" positions that worked to define "whiteness".. These are the propaganda of "whiteness" that was solely devised to create a buffer between the oligarchy controlling finance, commerce, and our political system... This would evolve over the course of several generations into racial hatred....

But, I think of the first indentured servant revolt....the Bacon Rebellion...and realize that the same forces,the government sponsoring (and vise versa) of elite interests at the cost of those generating the wealth and justifying the government,are here working today..

I think of the Kansas-Nebraska Act, and the way, time after time, our government has proven itself to be a tool of monopolistic, harmful, and dangerous minds....

"White" was that little sense of comfort that was advertised when residential areas carried racial restrictions...when schools were directly segregated by law, or indirectly sheltered from "the others" through residential price-based exclusivity...

"White", I have to say it, is the quiet optimism that people held for 8 years that Bush would do something right...and that we wouldn't crash and burn.... I say this because I see clearly "Black"...which is the absolute intolerance for Obama represented across this nation based on far more baseless categories than his policies...from the "hidden Muslim" to the "non-citizen" and so on....

"Whiteness" makes Palin appear as if she is a legitimate contender to Obama...

After 8 years of Bush....his "whiteness" enables him to still have a legacy...and not face prosecution for his crimes....

Obama has had a more harrowing 2 years than any president I have been alive to observe...
