08/09/2009: "What Does Post-Racial Actually Look Like"
Here’s a shining example…
More Whites Complaining to EEOC of Racial Discrimination
More and more whites "weary of a generation of minority racial preferences, fighting for scraps in a feeble economy, feeling the sting of skin color as a disadvantage" are joining minorities in crying foul.
"The pendulum is swinging where people are challenging things on both sides," said Denise Drake, a Kansas City employment lawyer. "Everybody is saying, 'You don’t get to consider race at all.'"
Earlier this month, two of Kansas City’s white budget analysts filed suit against City Manager Wayne Cauthen, who is black, and the city, claiming that age and race discrimination led to the losses of their jobs and the retention of minority workers.
Their attorney accused the city of a "whites need not apply" policy. *snip*
Increase in claims
From 1998 to 2008, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission recorded a 45 percent rise in race-based discrimination claims filed by whites. (The agency shuns the term “reverse discrimination.”)
Today, complaints from whites of racism make up 10.4 percent of all complaints to the agency, up from 8.5 percent in 1998.
That trend stretches at least back to the case of Allan Bakke, a white medical school applicant who was twice denied entry by the University of California-Davis in the late 1970s. The Supreme Court ultimately faulted the school for shutting Bakke out while it let minorities with lower test scores in. *snip*
Significant cases
* In 2001, Ford Motor Co. paid $10.5 million to settle two class-action lawsuits filed by older, white men who claimed they had been mistreated by the automakers’ efforts to develop a more diverse work force.
* A Jackson County, Mo., jury in 2005 awarded Sue Gorker $311,600 after deciding that race was a factor in Kansas City School District officials’ decision not to renew her contract as a vice principal.
* Clay County, Mo., Assistant Prosecutor Melissa Howard last year won $2.1 million in a jury verdict after she contended she was passed over for a Kansas City judgeship because she was white. She argued that the City Council did not nominate her for the post because it wanted a racial minority to fill the post. The case is under appeal.
* In May, a white woman from Texas filed suit claiming that Hispanic colleagues at an assisted-living center harassed her for not speaking Spanish.
Mark Jess, a Kansas City lawyer who represented the plaintiffs in three cases of whites claiming racial favoritism, contends that in the same way "old-boy networks" hoard business among a mostly white country-club set, urban city halls and school districts can run on a spoils system for minorities. *snip*
Public opinion
Americans seem to have conflicted views about balancing a desire to overcome discrimination against minorities while protecting the rights of white people. For decades, polls have shown support for policies that improve diversity and overcome past discrimination. But when asked about giving preferences to racial groups, Americans’ support for affirmative action drops quickly.
It has not been a hot-button issue because most people say they have not felt a direct impact from affirmative action. In a Pew Research Center poll conducted in 2007, 5 percent of respondents said they had been helped by affirmative action, 10 percent said they had been hurt by it and 82 percent it said they had not been affected.
The key to this story is that last sentence…"5 percent of respondents said they had been helped by affirmative action, 10 percent said they had been hurt by it and 82 percent it said they had not been affected."
What do you think will happen when 80% of Whites have been affected? And that day will come a lot sooner than you think. This is the grubby reality of what diversophiles term 'post-racial', to sane folks it is simply called squabbling, as in....
The men who do not become Americans and nothing else are hyphenated Americans; and there ought to be no room for them in this country. The man who calls himself an American citizen and who yet shows by his actions that he is primarily the citizen of a foreign land, plays a thoroughly mischievous part in the life of our body politic.
He has no place here; and the sooner he returns to the land to which he feels his real heart-allegiance, the better it will be for every good American. There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.
While I no longer entirely buy this, there is some truth buried in there, we all know folks - immigrants - Black - Hispanic - who are true credits to this country, unfortunately, they are in the minority these days and that doesn’t appear to be changing any time soon. Hence this blog.
And when our insane open border & massive immigration policies turn this into a non-white nation, what then? Will we still give “minorities” special benefits? Will we be able to afford to? And if we can’t will we survive saying no?
Stay tuned for the thrilling answers to these questions, our insane elites are making absolutely certain we will learn the answers whether we want to or not.

I am really encouraged by this trend. This is such an important thing to pass along. Whites do have rights, and should for once start exercising them.
