Reverse Racism

I know that this may not go over very well but can someone please explain to me what reverse racism is and how it is getting so much attention, all the way up to the Supreme Court. Can someone please fill me in on what white men (Insert I’m not a racist disclosure: I have a white friend) are losing in America? I mean when is the last time any cop of a racial minority went on trial for blatantly shooting and killing or brutalizing a white male? Are blacks somehow taking over because Clarence Thomas is on the court or because the white house TV has been colorized? How many CEO’s of color testified in the bank bailout? How many in the auto bailout? If newspapers receive government funds how many people of color will you see testifying before congress? How about we go county to county and count all of the local and federally elected officials and see if the minorities have over run the judicial and legislative branches of government. Is it Tiger Woods that took it too far by being good at golf, because you know he doesn’t consider himself black or was it Venus and Serena that did it? You know in all of my life I have only had one black teacher ever. I have only been stopped and harassed by one black cop. If it is true that we are taking over then I would expect to see a lot more people who look like me in powerful positions, spending unheard of amounts of money on useless things, verbally assaulting me, and pissing me off on a regular basis. I mean sure I have the rap community, but I’m talking about the guys at failing companies who are pocketing millions of dollars for being ineffective at their jobs. Talk about affirmative action…It truly amazes me that we have come so short (far) as a country that the de facto majority can now cry foul against policies that had to be enacted because they wanted all the good jobs and lame jobs to themselves. My grandparents who were raised as sharecroppers less than one generation out of slavery have had the pleasure of living lives that have seen every great leader murdered, schools desegregated (which actually gutted the community), and diversity initiatives enacted, now reverse racism cases heard and won in the supreme court. I am sure their grandparents would be proud to know that we have gone from property to the purveyors of discriminatory practices all in less than 3 generations.
