Reverse Racism- Well Spun Catch Phrase or Real?

I hear folks all the the time use that "reverse racism" argument. It seems to be one of the new catch phrases of white America and I even hear folks of color calling each other racist against whites... I have to point out the fallacious nature of the intent behind this catch phrase. The term "reverse racism" itself is oxymoronic--simply because if one has experienced racism, to return the sentiment isn't racism but rather, a natural reaction to the bias encountered. To be more plain, people of color the world over have been subjected to physical horrors, cultural, material & historical theft and dis-enfranchisement at the hands of white people based mainly on greed but justified by racism--(bias/hate based on a difference of physical characteristics and/or culture.) Now for people or descendants of people who have been subjected to such bias/hate, to hate or have bias against the group who perpetrated such, equates to common sense based on the instinct of self preservation-not racism... Why does the ant hate the anteater? Reverse racism debunked. Comments, questions?

Omg, your the coolest guy ever......seriously....I feel the same way....that was something made up to turn the shit back on us...much like the phrase "we are our own worst enemy" that shit pisses me off. The reason why self-hate exist within the black community is based solely on "white" racism, and I put that in quote because caucasian people are not white....that white shit, is a club....for people of caucasian descent to put themselves above people of color....don't believe me? Well go to your handy dandy dictonary and check out what all the colors mean and you will see what I am talking about. Carl Linnaeus is one of the many racist mfers who created the color- code system for humans as a way to separate people. How can a person be racist against the motherfers who created hate in the first damn place? 100% cosign with you Matt, so awesome!

Im pretty sure itz already been said here, but Racism is an institution in place, with a particular group of people in power. We as a people have never been in a position to B Racist against anyone. What we can B is prejudiced and a bigot, but not racist. Watch WHITE MAN'S BURDEN, and U'll C what I'm talkin' about.

there is no such thing as "reverse racism", its a tactit use by caucasion supricist to futher their victimization, they always do this, especially when they are ever in a bad position on the earth, they cry about anything and everything and yet when anyone else has legitimate reason fo complaning they try use their crazy victimization mentality to work out a way as to not focus on the "real" true problems of other people.

I don’t think Whites would want to experience true “reverse racism”. They are having too much fun flipping out at the slightest hint of PoC Pride. The White Race Industry (WRI) has long since been at work making bogus cries of “racism” perhaps for as long as there has been opposition to affirmative action which, ironically, they have called “reverse racism” even though they, as Randy Garver says of “man.

It’s clear the WRI has been at work when legacy admissions policies which, by definition, advantage Whites haven’t been subjected to the sanction, scrutiny and stigma affirmative action has.

It’s also clear the WRI has been at work when college admission policies or practices continue to exist that effectively limit the number of Asian/Asian-Americans admitted to top colleges to make sure Whites with lower grades/scores are admitted in sizable numbers.

The White Race Industry was incorporated in this nation at the nation’s founding and has been calling for special privileges and payouts for Whites since Day 1 and has been trying to maintain those special privileges and all the unequal social/economic advantages those privileges helped them to acquire ever since.
